The tech companies need to make a shared subsidiary that simply buys all the books just once and then shares that data amongst subsidiary owners.

What a ridiculous assertion. They're already getting 100-1000x the value of their books. Truly bloodlust knows no bounds.

No. Ethics in engineering exists. They have a moral responsibility to not install a root cert on unsuspecting users' machines. I can build a bridge free of charge, optional to use, that doesn't mean it's not my responsibility

You clearly aren't discussing in good faith if your response to the write up above is essentially "right wing thought detected, opinion rejected." What an excellent demonstration of shutting off factual information to support

Hard disagree. Systems must be designed with typical human fallibilities in mind. Anyone that phrases a referendum like that ought to be sentenced to hard labor themselves for attempting to subvert democracy.

I feel like this is a huge problem with the progressive movement in the US. Morally sound arguments that rarely make practical or economic sense - and no, "tax the rich" doesn't get us there: https://freakonomics.c

It's bizarre to see tech bros, YC, and megacorporations kill the startup talent pipeline that they rely on so much. Who is gonna want to work at a startup in a non-founder role after this and Scale AI? This continuing degradation of, a

I am close with a few folks in medical research and the broken nature of the system and sheer amount of red tape has broken their dreams. It is impossible to get anything done. There is a difference between "reasonable guardrails"

Nah. I assume you have friends inside and outside of software? Software people are just different from the normal person. Way different. I couldn't put my two friend groups together. Are they "special?" Maybe, maybe not.
