> Higgsfield, a San Francisco startup valued at $1.3 billion.. Tesla Robo Taxi, the clean up robot that break AirBnB furnature, this Ai Movie compani .. All news from THIS week about companies that just lie to get ahead. I'm tired of move fast and break things.

> I'm tired of move fast and break things Simple fix, stop hovering the HN frontpage every hour, don't read every news item you come across, it isn't needed, and probably isn't good for our psyche either :) Some things of course impact your day to day life, but most of these "Hate / Love" articles and news are mostly made to drive clicks, not to actually make your life better.

  >Simple fix, stop hovering the HN frontpage every hour, don't read every news item you come across, it isn't needed, and probably isn't good for our psyche either :) A, yes, denial with fix everything. Like when the AI either costs them their job, or crashes as a bubble and takes the economy and their livelihood with it.

    Filtering what information you let affect your brain and mood isn't "denial", it's taking care of what you consume. Try sitting and reading about death, suicide, harassment, violence exclusively for a week, like if you were a social media moderator, and you'll notice how quickly you're affected by these things, even if it doesn't feel like it in the moment. > Like when the AI either costs them their job, or crashes as a bubble and takes the economy and their livelihood with it. Yes, this sucks, regardless of why it happens, it just straight up sucks. In 2008 we had a large financial crisis here, it sucked for most people in the country, either directly or indirectly. But you move forward, find other ways to live your life, adjust what you can and life goes on. Today obviously is different, but back then it felt impossible things would ever change and return to normal.

      - embedding-shape 4mo ago
        Well, my context is Spain, maybe in your country it's differently today, but compared to the times I wrote about in my previous comment, things are a lot better today, and lots of people who previously weren't thriving are today, unemployment gets lower all the time and the economy seems to recover faster than other countries. Maybe try a better country next time? :)

Someone says "I am tired of Y happening so often", and you talk to them like you're their nanny. > Yes, this sucks, regardless of why it happens No, the reasons why it happens is why it sucks. And the reasons are of supreme importance, being the reasons, and are also the key to making things better. It starts with paying attention. > you move forward, find other ways to live your life, adjust what you can and life goes on. Yes. You say "this sucks", someone tells you how to live your life, you tell them off and move on.

    Choosing to not consume the endless deluge of shit is not denial, it's self-care. If AI will take their (or my) job, doomscrolling isn't going to change that. That may be defeatist, but the forces at play are bigger than myself or my internet browsing habits.
    - customguy 4mo ago
      > doomscrolling isn't going to change that How do you get from "I'm tired of the frequency of these scams" to "doomscrolling"? People discussing things, finding out they're all against being exploited and driven into poverty or death, and coordinating to change that is very powerful. It's the reason we discuss this by being able to read and write, rather than while slaving in a mine. Why do you think so much slop is generated? In part also to keep that from happening. Because that's what healthy humans normally do, if you let them, if you don't interfere. Just like a wound normally simply heals. These natural and common reactions of humans to such things are the solution, not the problem. Let them actually do their work. If you are exhausted or just apathic, the positive contribution you can still make is to stand aside.

  The 'simple fix' to attacks on culture and institutions is obviously not "just stop reading the news" Apathy is for cowards.
  - engeljohnb 4mo ago
    I think being constantly outraged over stuff happening to no one I personally know for twenty years that will never affect my daily life has become too exhausting for me to keep it up, and I'm not convinced my learning about it is helping anyone. It's not changing how I vote. Apply whatever insult you want to it, but I'm finished. Making a data center in my home town? I'm going to do anything I can to stop it. Entertainment companies serving slop instead of art? Meh, I'll just rewatch old favorites.
    - Papazsazsa 4mo ago
      You have a voice. Don't give up.
      - engeljohnb 4mo ago
        That's true, but I have limited capacity to use my voice to enact material change in the world. Some people put their efforts towards changes that will reduce the most suffering for the most people. Others enact change that will most individually benefit themselves. Still others enact whichever attempts at change require the least effort. And some (like me) want to enact whichever changes will reduce suffering specifically for the people close to them.

      It's a pathetic outlook to just roll over and let everyone screw you over constantly
      - engeljohnb 4mo ago
        I agree. That's why I was careful to mention that I'm still trying to stay informed about things I think will actually affect me personally. If the only thing that changes from me reading headlines is my emotional state and not my decisions, I'm going to just stop with the headlines because they exacerbate anxiety and insomnia and my family needs my attention more. I don't find this position pathetic at all.
- customguy 4mo ago
  Tired of, not tired of hearing about it. We should rather pay very close attention to all of it, and add involved people, company and media to databases of such things, to explore the connections. This isn't a joke, they're not playing with monopoly money, and the quick fix to your bed being on fire isn't to hit snooze, it's do do unflinchingly what should have been done from day one. Zero tolerance.

  My recommendation has been to ignore any news source that comes out more than once a week. Emergencies requiring you to be up to date are extremely rare. Wait a week and most news will simply vanish as irrelevant or false. (Ironic saying that on HN, in the comments on an article of extremely dubious merit. I don't always follow my own advice. But I do keep it to a minimum.)
guessmyname 4mo ago
At this point, every AI or LLM “breakthrough” announcement should be assumed to be a lie until the company provides hard proof. Way too many companies have figured out that exaggerating, misleading, or outright lying gets them headlines, investors, and free marketing long before anyone verifies the claims.

Fraud is still technically illegal. All you need to do is to buy off a prosecutor or two and tell them to do the thing that they haven't seen since their initial job description.

Move fast and make money. you don't even need to break anything. America is awash with capital, someone has to relieve that burden

You are tired, i'm tired. Next month is the IPO of Space-X which will be worth trillions because sending people to mars and building data centers in space is a trillion dollar business now... :|
