I wouldn't be setting up a static site + headless CMS for a non-technical organization. This is basically asking for a constant headache. Just set them up on a website builder like Webflow/Framer/Ycode/Squarespace/e

Your 401k is going to be fine, nobody goes public anymore until they're a big, dumb, boring, profitable company and all of the risk+returns have been rung out. Too many normies betting their life savings without understanding this risk

I find it very ironic your username is 'StopDisinfo.' First, the idea there is no American integration is just funny, given millions of your countrymen moved to the US just 2-3 generations ago and yet French identity is essentiall

Which is why socialism is fundamentally incompatible with immigration, and why the US, being a nation of immigrants, is structured the way it is (more individualist). Nobody wants to pay for the new guy to have a luxury first world lifestyl

Huh? The problem in Europe is not immigration, the problem is there being no European country with a vision of the future for immigrants to buy into. Aesthetic Traditions ≠ Culture. Traditions are just one aspect, but as Nietzsche wrote abo

It’s working fantastic. US media is great at generating hysteria (competitive market pressures in the war for attention), but the US is at essentially very little risk for speech suppression at the level of the UK right now.

No the NYT should be ashamed of itself for using this tragic story to generate clicks and sell subscriptions/ads. They are quite literally profiting financially off of this teens death while spreading false moral panic at the same time

Yes, it’s clear there were zero other factors that led this teen to suicide. Teens have never committed suicide before ChatGPT. Also video games lead to school shootings, music leads to teens doing drugs, and pagers are responsible for teen

This is dumb. Nobody is writing articles about all the times the opposite happened, and ChatGPT helped prevent bad stuff. However, because of the nature of this topic, it’s the perfect target for NYT to generate moral panic for clicks. Clas

A good sign the bubble is not actually bursting: a mainstream news publication predicting it. [1] It's still 1994. We won't be near the top until the Telegraph publishes an article overly exuberant about AI and saying AGI is here.

Not for long if the EU government keeps raiding it for billions. EU social welfare programs are all in a precarious state and the EU is currently taking on massive debts to re-arm again. Their economy is also not growing and China is eating

Obviously you haven’t either, because GDPR says nothing about cookie banners. Cookie banners are the result of a different piece of legislation, the ePrivacy directive. Have you read that one too? What about all the latest judicial actions
