I adore this.

Always check your sources…

They literally gave an award to Charles Koch.

To be honest, it might be better for the future of our next planet if we don’t reproduce quite so readily anyway. 

The Current is owned and operated by TradeDesk, the largest ad platform outside of Google. UID2 is their own initiative. So to say this article is biased is… mild.

There’s something problematic that underlies this that we as a society should all be worried about. It’s been a long time since you could really trust a corporation to be honest with you or to take care of you, maybe never. But you could at least trust the people you worked with and for to be good humans and do the right thing even if it wasn’t the profitable thing. It seems like those days may be gone, where human decisions still had room inside a company that is squeezing everyone for profit.  The human decency is gone from work. The managers that fought for their people have hung up their gloves. Anyone can be laid off, remotely, with no consideration for what it means to them and their family when they lose a job.

They will be told it wasn’t about their performance, which means there wasn’t anything they could have done about it. They are basically told they were powerless to keep their job. That the thing which is so fundamental to their survival on earth and their identity as a person is completely out of their hands and can be ruined on a whim by someone who doesn’t even know their name. By someone who refers to them as a “resource” or a “headcount.”

So we should not be surprised when workers have absolutely zero loyalty to the company, and that they are completely jaded about anyone they work with caring about them beyond what they deliver.

It’s not just that we have created a depressing, impersonal, immoral, spiral-of-death workforce. It’s that we have taught everyone not to trust the people in their professional lives and that kindness is no longer profitable.

How about no, ok YouTube?

Oh no! … Anyway…

This is cool. Thanks for the follow link!

How can they say it has worked when no one except the media and people that work there actually call it that? 

You’re right. Cause I deleted that app months ago.

“They must have sent one DM” - so any rando that has sent an unwelcome DM can follow it with a call?

It will most certainly use local models. (Locally tuned from a common base model) That’s kind of their whole differentiator.

Good. Jump in.

Wow this is exactly what I’ve been lacking. Thank you!

This is honestly a masterpiece

Stupid bastards. I hope Apple and WhatsApp and Signal all just turn off service in the EU. Let the users eat these assholes alive when their apps stop working.

This is perfect. We really don’t need to stop calling it as Twitter anyway. Their rebrand is shitty and very incomplete.

Humanity had a good run. I hope the next Apex species takes better care of the planet than we did. We should start carving warnings into rocks.

Jesse FTW. It’s so consistently good. I’m through about 15kg so far without a single hiccup.

The answer here are standards like Matter that are interoperable between brands. I get that if I buy all Amazon devices they are going to work better with each other. But if I buy a device from a different brand I should be able to choose whether I link it to Amazon or Apple or my own home-cooked thing. These easy cloud integrations are really important for mass adoption and for the non-tech savvy. They just shouldn’t be a lock in with no choices.
