We aren’t jealous that some people are rich.

We’re angry that some people make themselves insanely wealthy by shortchanging workers, cutting corners in ways that hurt people and the planet, and by buying politicians to rewrite the rules in their favor.

There’s a big difference.

@cfiesler You are so spot on. I did it once, but not again for the reasons you listed. I was further constrained in that I didn't have any sort of budgetary control and it was in a city and country I had never been to.

When I boil it down, I find my feelings about AI are actually pretty similar to my feelings about blockchains.

@Mer__edith here are And then there's whole electricity usage edge and all the justice issues that are wrapped up in access to electricity. This article highlights them, but doesn't begin to explore their complexity. (Also, WaPo seems to be doing some decent reporting on the impacts of AI.)

Headline: Nearly 25,000 tech workers were laid off in the first weeks of 2024. Why is that?

Correction notice: The headline for this story has been corrected to add the omitted word "off."
