  • I'm happy that no matter how bad things were for you that you had the wherewithal to feed yourself properly. It doesn't sound like you've experienced a lot of privilege, but that is one area where you can count yourself fortunate.

    Similarly, I've been homeless but I always made sure that I could get some food into me somewhere. Usually shelters, soup kitchens, food banks

  • I didn't even grow to that poor, but knew people who ate worse just because the battle of everyday life took every last ounce of gumption they had.

    Luckily my ma knew about food and cooking, so we did alright, but I had a lot of little friends who were totally totally lost when it came to feeding themselves.

    Hell right now I know middle aged men pulling six figures who are hurting nutritionally, and it's like impossible to educate them to a better way to take care of themselves, despite money not actually being an issue

  • I think people miss an important point in these selloffs. It's not just the raw text that's valuable, but the minute interactions between networks of users people.

    Like the timings between replies and how vote counts affect not just engagement, but the tone of replies, and their conversion rate.

    I've could imagine a sort of "script" running for months, haunting your every move across the internet, constantly running personalised little a/b tests, until a tactic is found to part you from your money.

    I mean this tech exists now, but it's fairly "dumb." But it's not hard to see how AI will make it much more pernicious.
