So here is a question. Now that Bluesky is using this fancy OpenAI and Google AI thing, does all your #Blusky content now get poured into the Google and OpenAI LLM training models? Does Google get to use it to profile your private data for ads and all manner of evil stuff?
What about Fediverse content bridged over to Bluesky?
Even as an NYU alum, I've always found this very silly.
It would be a much better program for the university to get every student and staff member and unlimited ride MetroCard/OMNY*.
Someone dubbed #cybertruck the "WankPanzer" and now that's its name.
I don't make the rules.
For those who haven't seen twitter discourse involving a traffic engineer greatly embarrass himself and profession.
This is a deadly fixed object (DFO) stan account now.
Since I see that a notable VC-famous jerk is now telling us that he wish he'd "stood by" Eich way back, I'd like to tell you a true fact: Eich didn't lose the CEO's job for his (reprehensible) Prop-8 donation.
Everyone wants to believe that's true, because fits nicely into useful narratives a number of invested camps want to champion, whether it's somebody being ousted for reprehensible views or the woke SJW mob somehow pulling down a great leader (tm) but that's not what happened.
But the real reason wasn't that he made a donation to some reprehensible cause.
The real reason he lost his job was because he showed everyone who mattered that when the chips were down - and I mean, 100%, the whole table is all the way in, down - that he'd put his own pride or vanity or who gives a fuck what ahead of the continued existence of the company and the mission.
He lost his job because he made a bet that he was more important than the possible end of Mozilla and he lost that bet.
