Political people are the worst. This is a clear case where a suspension is necessary, but since a leftist journalist was soliciting hacked material from a rightist journalist, its controversial. Politics makes otherwise rational people act

I think your opinion might be overly influenced by your disdain for Musk. This sounds borderline unhinged to me. > It's how a 9-to-5 employee thinks about capital Okay, well, I'm the founder and CTO of a Series C company. >

I doubt they’re worried about the bill. It’s Microsoft. It probably has more to do with him painting them as the evil capitalists who took OpenAI closed source and for profit to achieve world domination. He spoke a lot about this in recent

People generally do what is expected of them. If you’re dropped into a class with higher expectations, you perform better. Lower expectations and you perform worse. We are all optimized to do what’s required of us and conserve excess energy

One could argue that racism itself was actually just an act of classism. Slavery was motivated by capitalism (free labor) and slaves of the same race existed in places with only a single race. As public opinion shifted against slavery (you

This article like many others claims a mass exodus from Twitter, but Musk claims usage is at an all time high. I wonder which is true? I’d be inclined to think Musk is lying. He has clear motive to do so. But on the other hand, he has acces

Yeah but it was changed before this piece and before NPR decided to leave. Twitter acknowledged that label was incorrect and changed it. Then NPR had a temper tantrum and left and this piece implied they left over that label. It’s misleadin
