OMG of course it’s called “X Chat.” This guy has the creativity of a brick.
Also there’s multiple existing chat tools called some version of “X Chat.”

Err, the Epstein list hullaballoo came from the republicans. They wanted them released. They campaigned on the promise of releasing them.

If they used the money hose on us it’d be great!
To a point subject to the real resource limits we have, but I’m pretty sure you knew that. 😊
- Comment on Inflation Outpaces Wage Growth For Over 40% Of Americans 2 months ago:
This isn’t a currency issue. The processes driving this have been observed in 19-century Britain under a gold standard. You have to look into how firms decide what to produce, how to produce it and what to do with the profits in order to build a better picture on what’s happening. If you haven’t, this was a good starting point for me.
- Comment on The Hype is the Product 2 months ago:
I understand the argument you’re making and I can see that way to look at it. It’s a useful framing and interpretion. I however see it as the same trend of seeking ever higher profits by shareholders. I don’t think shareholder primacy is conpatible with making good product. As a good product is made and profits stagnate as it saturates a market, sharholders demand profit growth, firms often respond by reducing product cost, which typicalle makes it a worse product. Lots of examples for this process. In effect, for many decades now one could consider profit growth being the primary product of corporations. When I look at the current developments you highlight, I can see manufacturing hype as the next version of this product. It’s novel, but I see it as an evolution along the product line that is maximizing shareholder value. I’m not saying this is a better interpretation or anything. To me it makes sense but I’d be perfectly happy with yours if I didn’t already have an opinion on this and I would have been well informed by it. 😊
Thanks for the article!

This isn’t tech specific and it predates the dominnce of the tech industry. This guy is often credited with populrizing this model.

- Comment on Elon Musk’s Grok Is Calling for a New Holocaust 3 months ago:
The problem is that Grok has been put in a position of authority on information. It’s expected to produce accurate information, not spit out what you ask it for, regardless of the factuality of information. So the expectation created for it by its owners is not the same as that for Google.

Please. The Western European, anti-immigrant voting slavs have nothing on our North American balcanic compatriots. We vote right in record proportions! For example the Canadian Bulgarians voted twice harder for the Revival party.

The ones born after the Great Depression lived through an abnormal period of capitalism. One that featured a lot of socialist policies. As far as I’ve read, most people were well aware that capitalism was dog shit for the working class before that and a lot believed socialism was the solution.
