I think a concern for the business is whether other people can help maintain the system. As such don’t go too custom and roll your own. Take things like nextcloud and see if you can fit the requirements by bolting on a few docker services. Keep it simple by using “appliances” where it makes sense (dedicated NAS?).

Who needs IP laws when you have EULAs that bar competition? Certainly not corporations with their armies of lawyers.

I lived through those times, this is different. The punishment for false hope is the lesson that things can always get worse.

We’re cooked because our leaders are pumping the AI bubble while crashing the rest of the economy. When that bubble pops those programmers are going to have to find a job in a nuclear sized crater of where the economy used to be.

After 2 weeks I think they would say something if they had something, and even then…

That is the definition of liberalism but that is not the loved experience of unhoused people in the USA. If you are unhoused there are a lot of moral judgements that come along with that.

Harder? Being queer and unhoused can be pretty damn bad in the states. In China your boss might say something bad but you don’t have to worry about being homeless.

But those are for hire. Unlike American Democracy, the CCP can’t be bought.

Yeah, I got questions about Tienanmen, but not the same ones. Like was the CIA involved in the counter protest outside the school campus?

Also, there is searchable queer content on RedNote, the app own by the CCP

The process is as important as the results. If DoGe taught us anything, it should be that.

Billionaires are often referred to as dragons because they horde wealth. A Guillotine that could know the difference and decide to only harm billionaires would be a technological marvel.

Real AGI is a Guillotine that only removes the heads of dragons.

I am a leaf on the wind, watch how I soar

Protest can also be a form of art and memetic transmission. Don’t be so quick to dismiss others.

Sure, which is why installing it is largely a protest. I don’t think US tiktokkers are going to seriously learn pinyin so they can properly tag their post.

There’s already a mass exodus to RedNote, and I gotta say, I love that there are no ads.

Yeah, because LLMs have shown they understand language and aren’t bullshitting us. /s

Like I get this might generate new leads to explore, but to say it’s a virtual cell as if the model is somehow self-consistent is malpractice.

AI is maturing into what exactly?

The revolutionary potential of a media platform is inverse to how mainstream it has become. Lemmy and mastadon don’t need to be big to be influential because the people who show up to those platforms are (relatively) engaged in their AFK communities.

I am so down to read that. Thx for the book rec
