It's absolutely wild that your post is flagged (downvoted). Thanks for writing the article and for replying here.

Corporate taxes can tax corporate revenue or profits. Stock buybacks and dividends can be regulated or outlawed. If we don't want to force corporations to pay with more equality across ranks, we can take larger portions of revenue or profit and then fund social safety nets and welfare that are targeted at those that corporations choose not to give raises to.

There are plenty of systems answers, power just doesn't care, and neither do voter bases.

how are you liking shelley?

haven't really tried shelley much yet, I've been interacting with exe.dev over SSH and then claude cli with my sub once I'm ssh'd in. Next step I've been procrastinating is tailscale on my exe VM and mosh on the tailnet address.

Why do you think such an approach would work, but something equivalent to try to prevent mass shootings / school shooter type gun violence wouldn't? Or would you say that radical open cooperation and mutual self restraint led by governments could stop the American problem of mass shootings like the Las Vegas shooter?

I don't see how you stop terrorism (of the school shooter type, not the Islamic/political type) with inter-government cooperation. Mirror life is just another vector for school shooters but with PHDs.

Almost all for-profit large internet platform providers you use have anti-bot, anti-scraping, anti-spam, anti-abuse defenses. This is a new thing that is the same, it's anti-distillation, but its a subset of the same space.

If you have a problem with this, you should have a problem with Google, Apple, Microsoft, Amazon, Netflix, etc.

If that's also the case, then no problem.

But what Anthropic is doing here is nothing new.

Just google multi-cloud. Yes. It's a thing.
