Quite neat! Seems like a very fun library. This demo is very similar to what was posted as well: https://cosmiciron.github.io/layoutmaster/dancing-text.html Can see how this could make a few useful "splash" p

Congrats, what about the other 80% of Americans that can barely afford rent and pay for healthcare? Fuck them right? As long as your shares go up, people must die. What a great economic system with great morals that create moral societies.

Can you please tell me which politician runs on making the government worse? No single electoral campaign has ever said "I'm running to make the government less effective." Trump ran on making the government more effective, H

It would be helpful if you didn't post rebuttals from people with a massive financial incentive to do so.

"Please follow best practices." You're telling me that isn't good enough? You might need to head off to the VC reeducation camps.

Good thing voters are skeptical of abundance or they have never heard of it (like 90% of democratic party members have never heard of abundance). Thank fuck too. Neoliberalism sucks, along with EK + DT.

Okay fine, break up both Walmart and Amazon. Doubt you'll hear voters complain about the two companies that always make the most hated lists.

They are but the difference is that China doesn't want to encourage monopolies and have zero qualms in jailing or executing bad business leaders.

Labor has very little to do with it and more about a political class that has to increase the material needs of a nation if they still want to stay in power. What has the US government done for American's lately outside of forcing peop

Call me crazy but society should care about giving people meaning, providing healthcare, and an education. You know the three things that lead to productive humans. Notice in my comment I mention nothing about taxes? Maybe people are mislea

Why should society care about people making profits? Society would greatly benefit from cheap abundant ram than FAANG shares going up. I'm kinda sick about only caring that some billionaire makes more money and would rather you know...

Nah, they're right. Google can only afford to do this because there are literally two players when it comes to online advertising. Remove advertising from Google and suddenly they can't subsidize failing BUs. Kinda the point of pr

This happens with Spotify too TBF. Listen to one single genre, suddenly the only thing you hear is from that genre. Whenever Spotify removed human curation from their recommendations to rely on more ML-algorithms was when it stopped being u

Makes plenty of sense to me, the company that profited off of the Myanmar genocide likely also doesn't care about local regulations either or the impacts on American civilians either.

Innocent children dying because of US imperialism should make everyone emotional and angry. I feel bad for you since you seem to be without a soul, hopefully you find one some day before you pass because you desperately need humanity in you

If you can't get emotional over the needless deaths of innocent school children, something is clearly wrong with you.

Sam Altman and Dario Amodei are already billionaires. That doesn't stop those greedy fucks from stealing everything in their path in the pursuit of money. Greed is a societal illness.

Why hasn't your company sued OpenAI and try to argue they're violating the computer abuse and fraud act? Would it really be impossible to argue this? Unauthorized access, system damage, and maybe even extortion all apply here.

This is tech we are talking about. There are very little, if any, regulatory burdens in place here. The only things that DO hurt SMBs across the board are things like paying for private health insurance and retirement plans. Two core things

Yes, nothing different from any other VC dev tool startup. When the community fractures people simply move on to something else. See rome -> biome for a very recent example.
