to be clear - i agree something needs to be done but nobody can define specifically what to do. how do you define it? what exactly are you taxing? how are you taxing it?

my argument, is that its a hard problem. bernie sanders is the only person i see coming up with ideas.

i can’t. its easy to say “billionaires must be stopped” but how? specifically, exactly what.

to give an example. what is wealth hoarding? how do you define it so it doesnt cover savings accout or retirement?

thats what i said… i feel like Data from Goonies

you put earn in quotes because i think you know they dont usually earn a billion. so what exactly are you trying to stop?

this is a decent read. theres honest criticism and not a “m$ sux lol” rant. a someone who can agnostically enjpy tech history, i would like to see how this plays out.

the person who wrote the article is… not a great thinker but you get some good answers from Cerf, so worth a read.

The first mistake the author makes is thst Tim Berners-Lee is not one of the fathers of the internet but of the world wide web. it runs on the application layet of the internet and came decades later.

The second mistake is corrected by Cerf. the difference between a discovery and an invention.

the article states that microsoft did fix it but are refusing yo acknowledge it.

seems very targeted to me. they want all thebusers of an app specifically designed to disable emissions tracking.

people shouldnt have that app. the current administration isnt behind this because we know they dont care about the clean air act.

this title is an out right lie. to be fair, the title doesnt actually say the backlash is because of ai but it heavily hints at it. which is not true.

its surprising because the actual text of the article goes into the actual reasons why the initiative is on hold. (not blocked). including CUDA was a bug issue.

but exporting is easy with bitwarden. this is annoying. after the age check laws, i have been moving off big companies because it will be bad snd i know my migration will take a bit. i finalized bitwarden a couple weeks ago and was just about to assist my family.

i would not be as upset if ram and harddtives didnt cost a mortgage right now.

it uses copilot the same way google uses gemini in search result. usually top result on the page.

the issue was losing cintext and forgetting about previous supply orders. wasnt about training

i thought payment processors dont like porn because it has a high charge back rate.

i would like to see the system ptompts. dating apps are designed to help you find someone who eill interest you in the short term but fail in the long term, or else they wouldn’t make consistant money. so theres a chance the ai actually matches you with someone permanently compatible and in tutn destroys bumble’s business model.

this worries me with any tech.

1. if a smaller company dvelopes a competing product (openai and anthropic used to be small) will it hinder them and provide access to only the mion stream companies?

2. how does this affect non-us models?

3. will they only be approved if they say wonderful things about trump? have you ever asked grok about elon?

i started there, like lemmy, i also sign into piefed. its just different software connecting to the fediverse

It was 100% about the web. But to be clear, for this conversation we have to be pedantic. when i say web, i mean the world wide web, the service that runs on the application layer of the internet. I am not talking about the internet itself. I was working as a software developer and a lot of people thought web pages weren’t going anywhere. AOL was how people accessed online but there were competing products to the WWW, the biggest competitor was gopher. Web pages were not as functional at first and were seen as a fad, like an online business card. So yes people doubted the WWW app/tech itself.

which wont affect anything mentioned in this article. you do realize when the dotcom bubble bursted, the web didnt gonaway. we actually do buy pet food online now. (seeling pet food was thr last thing before the burst)

its just the small companies that popped up trying tk ride the wave will go away. the crazy hardware ramp up will die down. anthropic isnt going anywhere
