What a time to be alive for terrible people with stupid ideas
"We don't talk enough about this" mate we don't shut up. That's the whole problem. We talk about everything all the time forever. What we don't do enough of is sit quietly with a thought for more than 9 seconds before turning it into a post. Which I am now doing. About this. The irony isn't lost on me.
And yet, we're told that Block - a company that is totally exposed to crypto volatility and would face a mass selloff by investors (and possibly a run) if news got out that it was in danger - undertook mass layoffs to "make a big bet on AI" (and not to paper over the terrifying prospects for its crypto-exposed business with high-gloss tales about being on the cutting edge of the Next Big Thing).
Zohran Mamdani had +38 approval upon his election. In under 2 months he’s:
•Secured universal childcare
•Paid New Yorkers $30/hour & survived a blizzard without disruption
•Remained wholly honest about the massive budget crisis NYC faces
•Demanded Hochul tax billionaires instead of working people
•Got Trump to commit $12B to NYC for affordable housing, and
•Did it ALL without corporate money

His approval is now +48.

Almost like working people love public servants who fight for working people.🤯

Mozilla is adding a toggle to disable all generative "AI" features in Firefox. It shows that organized pushback is actually making a difference.
