Fortuitous

The idea the Graphene devs are toxic doesn’t hold up to scrutiny. People just don’t respond well to their critiques and think a media dogpile will be less energy.

This isn’t even about competency really as the cost of AI is being artificially depressed through all of these businesses running at a loss. It might be insane to stick in a blender with US labor statistics. Hopefully not the kind the WH uses?

There are a lot of different things falling under the umbrella of AI. You’re right to be skeptical of an algorithm’s ability to estimate another algorithm’s ability in practice. They’re testing how well the buzzword tech can move the needle on numbers the fed obsesses over. Really pigeonholing the tech into profitability. Best uses of this tech will be in balancing electricity flows through the country, with inputs including population + industry usage, weather patterns & other renewable energy variables (these are very much a social good but you can already hear capital hissing at the thought). Humans already operate many cybernetic systems that turn on volition, with inputs adjusted to make them exploitative. Streamlining them is going to rip the balls right off for sure. As I often quote Michael Parenti by recently, “You’re stupid if you think they’re stupid,” it goes nicely with “the purpose of a system is what it does.”

I’m sure there is plenty of chaff to cut in finance and healthcare etcetera, in my heart I want to believe in a coming Burger Decimation, but US labor statistics are absolutely cooked. Having read practically nothing about the model they’re using, I would appreciate if anyone can tell how accurate it is.

Yeah, I think it is pretty enlightening that Westerners reply with jokes and GIFs when the subject shifts from wage and rent stabilization to land reform. I guess you haven’t really got the marks 'o capital all over your body like you once thought.

Not beating the “talks like a pedophile” accusations by throwing the roleplay-speak into the pot. Do you have any substantive critiques or are you purely tone policing because you have nothing to add whatsoever? Which is, by the way, what I just directed back at you, tone policing, because you added absolutely nothing.

Is talking like a pedophile to me supposed to prove something?

Okay, feel free to ignore it then. I know some people who would love to hang out with you and talk about how Marx said the American Revolution was based.

Ukraine and Israel are military allies. They’re also both supplied by the US military industrial complex.

Hell, Chinese retailers would send me a notification about this $17 iPad to refund me $0.30 because the price dropped. They need to get with the times. Nobody even uses pads other than Twitter addicts, babies, and old people.

What happened to Soviet and Cuban property law prior to workers en masse gaining the ability to buy a vacation home for their family? Do you think that the US land system can just be loosened up to allow poors into it? That goes contrary to its pricing through scarcity…

Well, if you’re not interested in land reform in the United States, then how exactly are you going to deal with the homeless problem? Are you just going to mimic Christian charity? Are you going to bring them jars of peanut butter from your parents pantry?

How was that pedantic? Do pedantic quibbles fundamentally change what a statement means? They’re generally used to imply somebody meant something different than what the listener knew they met. A difference in historical context between your situation and the situation described in the Communist Manifesto is not a pedantic difference. Words mean things.

No time for English or manners lessons, I suppose. Where did cartoon Twitter guy say people have to become homeless? You just assumed that’s what they meant because you don’t understand there’s a difference between housing in the United States and other Western countries that is backed by the global dollar system. It seems like a lot of people here are reinforcing each other’s misinterpretations of basic things. The reason why you have homeless people in your country is because the property values of your parents’ homes need to increase. Of course, this is more of a 10% than a 1% of the 1% critique, but I think we pay too much attention to latter and not enough to the former these days. You’re talking about homeowners and comparing them to Laos. You absolutely cannot be serious. Are we going to compare American farmers to Vietnamese farmers next?

EDIT: It may amuse all of you to hear that cartoon Twitter guy is not happy with my replies either.

You are making a direct comparison. I am challenging it. This is like if you all put your money into diamond toothbrushes that have microchips that are backed by the U.S. government. What the cartoon guy on Twitter is failing to elucidate is that yes, Americans like your parents do need to be decoupled from the global asset market. That is a form of expropriation, that doesn’t mean make them homeless, and you’re reading it uncharitably. It seems like you people have no idea where you even are. The Communist Manifesto has nothing to do with you.

I got scared off by the interface, I might give it a second try. My solution to the issues of COMAPS is to heavily bookmark geolocations in other apps. Resorting to proprietary solutions for emergencies (Yandex is pretty great outside countries like the US which do not like them).

China has a fundamentally different property system from the United States. When you’re buying into home ownership, you’re buying into a global asset market where the Cosmopolitan bourgeoisie puts its money.

I’m sorry, but by comparing China’s home ownership to America’s, you’re as incoherent as this cartoon Twitter guy. I don’t think anybody else has mentioned the asset market either. I don’t really think there’s any framework here for a serious discussion.

It will really be a joy to see Americans decide more and more countries are imperialist, as their sanctions work on fewer of them. Five years ago, a glorified gas station. Now, a great power. You guys are great at playing the victim.

By brigade, they mean actual forces sent by reddit to Ukraine. They were some of the first people wiped out by a missile strike in training. As mercenaries are not afforded humanitarian privileges like soldiers.

It can’t be a programming humor post without somehow even more mind-numbing stuff in the comments. Just part of the fun

This isn’t cause for celebration. Doge has accomplished its goal of disintegrating federal services which will never return. What do you think will happen to its personnel? Will this negatively impact their careers? I certainly don’t think so.
