  • Palantir was just too on the nose, they're basically saying "we're evil, this is evil", which is super creepy in a "what the hell is wrong with you" kind of way.

    Anduril means "Flame of the West". So for a California based weapons manufacturer, it's kinda perfect.

    I'm not saying these are good people or anything, just that of all the tolkien-named business, Anduril is probably the best named one.

  • You're living during a time when literally the largest collaboration of human effort to ever exist (the internet) was free, but is inexorably being enshittified purely by profit motive, and you're advocating for more things to be driven by profit motive.

    The test is easy, if it's trivial to contrive a situation where a profit driven design leads to the opposite of the required situation, then that service shouldn't be profit driven

    For profit fire fighters! Response times go up because there are a lot of firefighters now! Your house burns because you have bad credit or couldn't pay your bill. A firefighter may have set that fire to drive more business. conclusion: Fire fighting should NOT be profit driven.

  • Let's invent teleportation, then use the teleporter to merge them into a homunculus flesh beast, and then launch that thing into the sun.

    Unrelated, but I thought it would be a good idea.
