  • Libertarian ≠ capitalist... It's just a diet version of anarchism at its core which hustlers are trying to rebrand as being purely pro-business.

    There's even Libertarian Socialism

  • Websites have false positives all the time and while it sucks, it's infeasible for them to have human reviewers checking everything and it's better to have false positives than false negatives... What isn't acceptable is that the appeals process uses the exact same models as the flagging process so it gets the exact same false positives and false negatives...

    Pic related as it was one of the first to reveal how broken the appeals process in most social media platforms was.

  • Why would the Taliban want to shoot down a plane? They're not terrorists like IS or Al-Qaeda and they're not antsy enough to shoot down a plane first and think later like Iran are, nor is it an active warzone... They just want to commit human rights violations in peace and shooting down a plane is a golden ticket to foreign intervention.

  • Green is actual data, white is straight lines connecting the green, but they don't have data.

    The cut across Northern Iran is just a straight line, but they will have stayed north of the border.

  • There's a difference between libertarians and republicans looking to make more money. Most of the supposedly anti-taxation anti-regulation billionaires just want less tax for them and fewer regulations for their business; everyone else and especially imported products can be taxed more to give the billionaire's company more subsidies, and regulations to prevent competitors from growing or starting up is even more welcome. Even when it comes to personal freedoms, they don't care and will gladly support the government in reducing those freedoms if it earns them some sway.

    This all goes directly against the libertarian principles of government non-intervention in the free market and people's personal lives, both of which are vastly more important than just reducing taxes, which supposedly comes as a side effect later (even if in reality taxes would probably stay the same as you'd need to provide more assistance to low income people)

    This isn't to say that more principled libertarians are necessarily noble or right or whatever compared to people who just want lower taxes, just that saying it's about reducing taxes and giving power to corporations is buying in to the direction that corporations are trying to move the ideology in

  • Be generally aligned with the right

    It's gotta be authoritarian right though... I can't see a pro-immigration, pro-choice, pro-gun, anti-tariff, anti-corruption (generally pro-freedom, that thing republicans pretend to like) libertarian getting anywhere with trump, it wouldn't surprise me if a tankie got along better given they're into most of the things trump likes

  • Planes don't fly great circle routes though, there's overfly fees, weather, mountains, ETOPS and just plain politics... This route looks ordinary compared to some international routes, eg Helsinki to Singapore where you dodge Russia and Ukraine for politics, taking you way below the great circle route, then Turkey for overfly fees and Iran for politics, taking you almost back up to the great circle route, before dipping down again to avoid the Himalayas

  • Google haven't so much been destroyed by their own technology as hustlers have learnt to game it. Search as a whole has become worse as a whole as a result which is one reason people are looking to LLMs more as unreliable as they are, as they're easier and way better than mfa/seo content

  • I personally haven't bought anything from Amazon for years now (or really anywhere online, I think maybe 8 things in the past year?), issue is even within the last week I've spent hundreds if not thousands on AWS through work... Sure it's not me paying, but it's also pretty hard for me to not to given they have such a monopoly

  • A quarter of startups in Y Combinator's current cohort have codebases that are almost entirely AI-generated

    Jump

  • if any of these startups succeed, my condolences to the engineers who get hired afterwards and are stuck bugfixing

    This is any successful startup - you don't succeed by making a perfect product, you succeed by making a buggy mess that's enough to convince both investors and more importantly customers that there's potential... That means you need to rebuild from scratch in years 2-4 anyway, so frankly for the engineers who are coming in then, there's little to no difference

  • If we want to have any power vs. watching helplessly while people in charge fuck everything up, we should focus on democratic workplaces. Not just unions, workers should own and control the business

    Jump

  • I think the best option is for workers to be able to get shares in the company they work at via an optional salary sacrifice scheme (so that it reduces the tax you pay, rather than letting you buy them with your after tax income)... If you care about the business, you can get a stake in running it, if you don't you can collect your paycheck and go home.

    The stock market shouldn't exist however - when you leave the business you can either keep the shares, or return them to the business for "a fair price" (the amount you paid after inflation? or maybe just the current purchase price). Shares bought like this shouldn't be able to be sold - only those owned by the founder(s) can be, with the caveat that they must be offered to workers at a reasonable price.

    That system eliminates both forcing "responsibility" on people who don't want it, as well as removing people parasites who want to destroy the business to make a quick profit, as well as allowing people who've worked there longer to have more of a stake.

  • Workers owning the business < people who care owning the business

    That can take the form of workers, but equally founders or just people with an interest in what the business does. Equally though hard to get a founder who doesn't care about what the business does, but many workers genuinely just want a paycheck and to go home (myself included).

    The problem is, stock markets and the existence of easily tradable shares, options etc. actively encourage people who not only don't care about the business, but would be willing to mess it up for short term gain.
