Tells you everything you need to know about le internet circa 2026. Digg tried to relaunch but quit after being overrun by bots and AI...which also overrun every other existing site and service. Tthey're here too but much less visible and don't get algorithmic boosts.

Cheers!!
Worth repeating: AI platforms built by greedy tech CEOs aren't "making mistakes" they are working as designed
Part of that design is undermining experts, removing human connection & trust, and hiding decision making
Those are the things that make our communities work, and the more we lose them, the worse things get
It really bums me out that I keep seeing blog posts from technical people like "putting aside the obvious moral and ethical implications of LLMs, I'm interested in evaluating whether they can be useful for my work."
Like "putting aside the obvious moral and ethical concerns of breaking into my neighbours' houses, I'm interested in evaluating whether this can be useful for acquiring other people's valuables."
"The actual text of Kent’s resignation letter suggests that he is not taking an admirable antiwar stance, but laying the groundwork for an antisemitic conspiracy theory that could define the future of the GOP.
Kent’s resignation should not be celebrated by principled critics of the Iran war, but rather serve as a cautionary tale for how a just cause could be hijacked by extremists to promote something awful."
