  • Not a regular guy by any stretch.

    Jane Lauder, Kevin Warsh’s wife, is the granddaughter of global cosmetics industry legend Estée Lauder. She is the daughter of billionaire Ronald Lauder, who is the sole heir to the The Estée Lauder Companies. According to Forbes, Jane Lauder has a net worth of $2.7 billion, making her among the world’s wealthy individuals.

    Jane Lauder’s father Ronald Lauder is incidentally the same person who has actively been encouraging Donald Trump to acquire Greenland!

    Ronald Lauder, has shared a long personal history with Donald Trump, dating back to their days as students at the University of Pennsylvania’s Wharton School. The relationship forged during their undergraduate years has endured, with Trump and Lauder remaining close associates and trusted advisers over time.

    Ronald Lauder is widely seen as the person who first encouraged Trump to consider the idea of acquiring Greenland in 2020 and has continued to counsel him on the matter since then.

    Earlier this month, The Guardian reported that Lauder has built commercial interests in Greenland. Read more at: http://m.timesofindia.com/articleshow/127806205.cms

  • NarcissOS

  • My god this video is 14 years old and still just as relevant. I love the bit at the end

    "Next week we'll be talking about BodyDoo, the popular new device that links with your iPhone to post all of your bodily functions right to facebook"

  • Awesome read, thanks for this! Really interesting to hear the takes from devs and creators in the industry.

  • Yes folks if there's no organic demand for this glorified party trick we CEOs will just manufacture it by shoving it down your throats

  • Love this! Excellent work and great use case for Zigbee 👍

  • This is really great (and by great I mean terrifying to see it all laid out plainly). The only nitpick is the idea that the model "is coming to europe next" ... as if this whole thing wasn't kicked off by Brexit and the Cambridge Analytica scandal. Europe was the testing bed for this a decade or more ago.

  • Ok then, we'll be sending election monitor monitors to monitor the monitors

  • Excellent, insightful comment and I very much appreciate and resonate with this response.

    I do think the protest serves to raise awareness, even if it's a bit extreme. The desired effect is not really to encourage the complete rejection of tech, but bring attention to the issues and get the average person to think a little more about their usage of it. I'm actually kind of proud of these young folks for being able to snap themselves out of the social media-induced hypnotic state their generation seems to be stuck in.

  • He goes on to say

    [Americans] were born into democracy and have no appreciation of what life is like without it. Chinese people, on the other hand, “have been bullied by rulers for thousands of years. We’re very familiar with these situations.”

    Buddy that looks worse for you. The Chinese have been dealing with it for thousands of years but haven't managed to do anything about it? If this was some kind of flex, it's a weird one.

  • Completely agree and thank you for saying exactly what needs to be said. I oftwn ask how did we get here? This timeline is so far off from the one I came to expect even like 10 years ago. How do we get back to a more stable, less angry society?

  • Love the creativity here. If it works, it works!

  • why don't manufacturers of basic cars just put a fancy-looking exterior onto them?

    They do. This is exactly what Hyundai does for the Genesis brand.

  • I think it'll make a comeback eventually. LLMs will get progressively less useful as a replacement as its' training data stales. Without refreshed data it's going to be just as irrelevant as the years go on. Where will it get data about new programming languages or solutions to problems in new software? LLM knowledge will be stuck in 2025 unless new training material is given to it.

  • Dude Harvard didn't even stand up to defend their own president Claudine Gay when she needed their backing. They were dead silent during trumps first term when this same shit was going on. It's not just the money. They will literally sit on their asses and say nothing unless they are pushed.

  • 100% agree. Why are people like this?

  • I'd love to see this but her chances are likely worse than Harris. And that's assuming we have an honest election in '28.

  • Yep. The only real election fuckery is fox news, christianity and russia poisoning people's minds.

  • Agree. The "lesson-teaching" mindset has got to end.
