Legal while at work?

Seems to speak to the problem more than his use of psychedelics.
Report goes on to say people around him are worried about his ongoing drug use, particularly Ketamine.
A Tesla director stepped down due to his erratic behavior.
He once took the stage at a large company meeting presumably high and slurring his words.
Board members suspected he was on drugs while tweeting about taking the company private. The tweet caused an SEC investigation.
So, a little more than a Steve Jobs rant about his LSD hippy days.
The fact that you're (rightfully) questioning that, is the crux of the issue. Without an editorial note, it causes confusion and suspicion even when neither are warranted.
HN might be my favorite agg site on the web. I appreciate that I can read non-corporate blogs on here. So, I don't want to sound like I'm hammering this point too hard. But clearly there's a better way to editorialize? Maybe not. I don't have to make difficult moderation decisions so perhaps it's easy to say what they must change.
1. I omitted the Copy, Acquire, Kill part of the title. And while I often do complain about my own actions, I did not in this situation.
2. I'm always salty! :) Less so with Hacker News. I was exaggerating in my writing to show the silliness of trying to convince people to write while highlighting the parts that make writing less fun. Though I concede that sarcasm often does me no favors.
Ultimately, my beef with my favorite news agg is the lack of editorial note when they change a post title.
App.net was a small part of the post. I would think that the regulative capture part would be more relevant. But it's their website I guess.
It's pretty clearly regulative capture.
Or, not it's hard to say. But not impossible at all. Perhaps even likely.
AI discussions on this forum are often really interesting and tend to land on the more technical side of things.
The conversations on social media are very different. "AI artists" dominate the feeds so it feels like AI was specifically made to replace artists.
I will not shed a tear for Altman or Microsoft, but this fantastic Friday massacre, don't seem to line up with cause.
US privacy laws are a joke. Singling out TikTok without addressing events like Cambridge Analytica with Facebook, is at best suspicious.
