Pretty healthy way to think about AI
Imagine buying a website to make people look at your posts, then being unable to afford doing so

Goodbye Reddit

Today I used the Bulk Delete Reddit Posts & Comments History Chrome extension (and happily paid the $8 for full version and support the developer) to delete every single post and comment on my 17-year-old Reddit account before submitting the account for deletion. I went through the trouble to delete everything

I canโ€™t believe weโ€™re losing so many incredible apps so quickly, and all because of greed. Iโ€™ve never been this emotional over software. #GoodbyeApollo
A cryptobro DMed me to ask if I wanted to join his mailing list.

I spent slightly too long making this to send in reply.
Really impressed by the number of people on social media who turn out to have expertise in both deep sea engineering AND modern Russian political dynamics.

My dudes. Do NOT make a woman send you messages like the one I just had to send. It's shitty and it's hard that you put this bullshit on us. Especially if we're in the same industry.

No one is asking Reddit for the moon and the stars, just to listen to small changes.

Even Twitch, which made horrendous moves this month, recognized that the community is what gives their company any value at all, and responded in some capacity to make their users feel heard.

Wow, my first day as the head of SRE at Reddit is NOT going great.
Funny how I can manage a massive todo list of errands, build and repair devices and electronics, successfully manage a budget, and juggle complex interpersonal relationships IN ZELDA but not in real life.
