Jeff bezos couldnt even get autonomous grocery stores to work , I wanna be scared but these dudes really are failures at many things

@joni_askola This was already proven and history is repeating itself at a larger scale than ever before
English
Over the last few years, American tech oligarchs have become the greatest argument against their own existence.
The sheer scale of their erratic behavior and political interference proves that extreme wealth concentration is a structural threat to society

@LawrenceDCodes This is something I’ve been considering for many many years and want to create a community around it 💐💐💐
English
@LawrenceDCodes Taste requires good judgement based on what exists, not everyone has good judgement. Even if they judge things as good and bad, it may mean nothing to the majority of others on earth. We have to consider, why are some people trendsetters, what is their gift to be better at it

Of course, I personally know a few that work that way. Everyone doesn’t have the same process. That was never LB’s process. Different strokes for different folks

@RapperBigPooh Making a lot of songs isn’t mainly about guessing the direction of the album for some artists, it’s practice and great art is often outside of our sheer will and determination. They said MJ made 100 songs per album and he had vision

None.
we were never the “record 50 songs and narrow it down to 12” type of artists. We measured twice, cut once. when you know where you want to go you don’t have to guess.

@RapperBigPooh Out of curiosity, how much unreleased material does LB have?

This is so much just a huge segment of American culture, historically.

What chatgpt has revealed is that a surprising large number of people want to be “seen” as intelligent, profound or insightful. Many more people than you’d assume. But they profoundly resent intellectual work or reading or study or, say, literally anything you do to get smarter

The maximum an individual can legally donate to a candidate in an election is $3300.
Elon donated $277M to Trump in 2024 because of loopholes rich people use to buy elections.
If you care about election integrity — overturn Citizens United so our elections aren’t auctions.

I’ve been saying this so long, as they get deeper into AI, it cannot make the best future because it cannot have taste.
Taste is based on nuance, the necessary yet unnecessary, desire and so many feelings that AI cannot replicate.

Patreon CEO calls AI companies’ fair use argument ‘bogus,’ says creators should be paid techcrunch.com/2026/03/18/pat…

@Bl4ckranger2 @LaRussellGC Yes, and knows they could change their actions. I think you’re uncomfortable with the concept of free will and the freedom to do bad and maybe you want a god who would not allow bad people to exist by creation or hindering their actions.
English
@EricaThompson @LaRussellGC SIMPLE QUESTION. If God knows all, he knew they were going to be pedos and let it happen. Is that a true or false statement?
English
@Bl4ckranger2 @LaRussellGC I responded, maybe you have never truly wanted to hear. He didn’t create pdfs to be pdfs, that is their free will to do evil. If you think you should be restricted from doing evil then you don’t want freedom which requires the opportunity to do good or bad
English
@EricaThompson @LaRussellGC Honestly, because aren't critical thinkers. I would call you dumb, but my parents are Christian and I don't feel comfortable calling them that.
Don't respond. You answer like every other Christian, which is no response.
English
I think we did a great disservice to ourselves by DE-emphasizing the liberal arts.
We don't need more tech guys (like me) right now.
We need philosophers, ethicists, artists and for heaven's sake- TEACHERS and COUNSELORS.

What was your introduction to Durand Bernarr?

Yes and no. I used to want the dislike button but it’s so easily manipulated if people disagree even if the content is great.
Just download the extension that estimates dislikes

It was the one glanceable quality indicator for the video you're about to spend your time watching
English
@Bl4ckranger2 @LaRussellGC Why are there so many Christians who believed at 12 and believe today if it was incomprehensible
We humans have the power of life and death, we have the free will to create and do evil, God isn’t there to force you to do anything because that wouldn’t prove who we truly are
English
@EricaThompson @LaRussellGC Christian babble. This is exactly why I left the church when I was a kid, because y'all couldn't even make sense to a 12 year old. Everyone and everything is made by God. This includes pedophiles.
Where is this statement wrong? Answer directly, if you know how to.
