Right? OP asked a very subjective question on a public forum and is bristling that other's worldviews/desires/goals are different from his.

Wozniak, every time. Gigantic financial success at the expense of everything Google has negatively impacted isn't something I would be proud of. Everyone defines success differently, and Schmidt's "success" is, frankly,

Pardon my tone, as well - the enshittification is exhausting.

The long-run doesn't matter as much as the short-term gains for those in power.

It's not off-topic to suggest using something other than social media to communicate in a thread about social media silencing speech.
132.
by jjulius 5mo ago
I jumped ship, and the friends and family who are important to me are still on the ship, by and large. Yet I've never felt as though I'm missing out. We communicate via alternative forms (texts, calls, hanging out in person) and I

by jjulius 5mo ago
Yes, OP did - the alternative to social media is not more social media, which is a view shared by many. OP didn't judge you, they stated their opinion and asked you to soul search. If you truly feel that judged and offended, and I say

This shouldn't be downvoted, it's absolutely correct.

A few days ago I went looking for something music-related that I've been trying to find for a long time. Google's AI response confirmed it existed and described it almost exactly as I've described it in the past. It was then

I just gave it a shot and it hallucinated an off-trail, alpine scrambling route that, based on my knowledge of the area, would potentially get someone killed. I simply asked it if it could "talk to me about X route", and then it d

Yep, there's already a term for this - the uncanny valley.

Your sarcastic comment mistakes "public demand" for what is actually private sector demand.

That bump in adoption was most likely due to remote-learning prompted by the pandemic, something that we're not likely to see again.

It's just a bunch of gobbledygook.

by jjulius 5mo ago
This isn't just an article about how to leave Instagram, it's also an ad for an alternative social media network. The alternative to social media is not more social media. We could all do with less of it.

The simple fact of the matter is that, for many, enshittification outweighs usability. People are very happy to switch to something that may not be functionally all that better just as long as it doesn't come with a whole bunch of extr

For me, I know "Richmond" is used numerous places near me locally, so my assumption would've been that "Richmond hill" is too generic a query. "David Attenborough Richmond hill" would've been the way.

The whole "don't point out a problem unless you have a solution" trope is bullshit.
149.
by jjulius 5mo ago
On the contrary - stepping back and asking ourselves if we've gone too far and need to do things differently would solve a litany of problems, including this.

I think the better alternative to making engineers "feel uncomfortable opening their door, walking down the street" is for us to collectively ask if the solution isn't to touch more grass and rely less on the technology we&#x
