ujkhsjkdhf234··on The AIpocalypse is here for web sites as search referrals plunge
I think you mean SEO not SSO. I know there is company that already is working in this space. I can't remember the name though.
ujkhsjkdhf234··on U.S. bombs Iranian nuclear sites
Before the election, I had conservatives telling me that Trump is anti-war and the world will be more stable under him. The war in Ukraine he promised to end is still ongoing, Gaza is still being bombed to nothing, and now US is kicking off war against Iran. I don't understand how you all keep falling for it.
ujkhsjkdhf234··on Microsoft suspended the email account of an ICC prosecutor at The Hague
Trump says many things no one believes then he does. His supporters often play it off as he's joking and then whoops turns out he does it. Stop excusing Trump and take his words seriously.
ujkhsjkdhf234··on AI is ushering in a “tiny team” era
Instagram was 13 employees before they were purchased by Facebook. The secret is most employees in a 1000 person company don't need to be there or cover very niche cases that your company likely wouldn't have.
ujkhsjkdhf234··on YouTube's new anti-adblock measures
I get all the ads you mention but I have also gotten the deepfake crypto scam ads. Youtube doesn't discriminate as long as the check clears.
ujkhsjkdhf234··on I will do anything to end homelessness except build more homes (2018)
You sound like the exact person this article is satirizing.
ujkhsjkdhf234··on I will do anything to end homelessness except build more homes (2018)
Ireland doesn't give free immigrant housing. They have processing centers where you can stay while your application is being processed. They are very bare bones accommodations and you only stay there for up to 14 days.
ujkhsjkdhf234··on I will do anything to end homelessness except build more homes (2018)
What does this have to do with poor or homeless people?
ujkhsjkdhf234··on Ex-FCC Chair Ajit Pai is now a wireless lobbyist
Bernie Sanders did an interview with Andrew Schultz and his podcast bros where he explained how lobbying works and that most people in government become lobbyist when they leave their position. Because they are already friendly with everyone they have an easy in to get the process started.
ujkhsjkdhf234··on Dystopian tales of that time when I sold out to Google
Co-ops amplify the people problems and you are now locked in a room with people who know how to code but don't know how to make money.
ujkhsjkdhf234··on Doge Developed Error-Prone AI Tool to "Munch" Veterans Affairs Contracts
All of these people sound like naive psychopaths.
ujkhsjkdhf234··on MinIO Removes Web UI Features from Community Version, Pushes Users to Paid Plans
Which clearly isn't working for them since they are making this change.
ujkhsjkdhf234··on MinIO Removes Web UI Features from Community Version, Pushes Users to Paid Plans
Hypocritical or not, that isn't really an argument against Wikipedia surviving on unpaid labor and saying that that is the model to pursue.
ujkhsjkdhf234··on MinIO Removes Web UI Features from Community Version, Pushes Users to Paid Plans
Some people would criticize the fact that Wikipedia survives on volunteers as exploitation.
ujkhsjkdhf234··on MinIO Removes Web UI Features from Community Version, Pushes Users to Paid Plans
What did Jimmy Wales do they should be emulated?
ujkhsjkdhf234··on RFK Jr threatens ban on federal scientists publishing in top journals
If Conservatives were able to spot hypocrisy in themselves we wouldn't be here.
ujkhsjkdhf234··on De-anonymization attacks against the privacy coin XMR
Yes. I would bet on it. Certain Democrats don't like Monero because of the criminal activity around it. If the king told Republicans to ban it, they would be able to get enough Dems on board to avoid any filibuster problems.
ujkhsjkdhf234··on De-anonymization attacks against the privacy coin XMR
BTC is not about usefulness. The Bitcoin community has abandoned all of the original principles that made them. It is now just about line goes up and make money.
ujkhsjkdhf234··on As a developer, my most important tools are a pen and a notebook
On the scale of the amount of harm you personally do to the planet on a daily basis, I have to imagine wasting paper is one of the least consequential things.
ujkhsjkdhf234··on RFK Jr threatens ban on federal scientists publishing in top journals
I don't know if banning federal scientist from publishing has legal basis but creating a state run medical journal is not a bad idea in concept but we all know it will be used to push narratives that the state wants to push. Vaccines are bad, Trump coin cures cancer, unregulated substances from RFK's company will add years onto your life. You can always find 5 to 10 unscrupulous scientist or college professors who will trade ethics for dollars. Just call them leading scientist and have them publish whatever you want.
ujkhsjkdhf234··on Big banks explore venturing into crypto world together with joint stablecoin
No, it is not the corrupt money laundering that makes it biblical but the implications of Cryptocurrency backing the dollar and the complete ability to restrict your ability to buy or sell that makes it biblical.
ujkhsjkdhf234··on US pauses new student visa interviews as it mulls expanding social media vetting
Trump's admin is ignoring court orders and are about to pass a bill that will make it illegal to hold them in contempt of court. I don't see why an injunction will matter.
ujkhsjkdhf234··on US pauses new student visa interviews as it mulls expanding social media vetting
Assuming anything but the obvious is carrying water for fascists and which is how we've gotten into this situation. Is there any reason to assume that aren't going to do the exactly that?
ujkhsjkdhf234··on I salvaged $6k of luxury items discarded by Duke students
A co-worker was telling about a student he knew who would never do laundry and just constantly buy new clothes while getting rid of the worn ones.
ujkhsjkdhf234··on US pauses new student visa interviews as it mulls expanding social media vetting
> Single-issue advocates will tend to dislike you if you don't take their position on an issue. That doesn't mean anyone has to

These are the people who will determine whether or not you get a visa over a statement both you and I see as benign. Anything other than explicit endorsement is seen as adversarial.

ujkhsjkdhf234··on US pauses new student visa interviews as it mulls expanding social media vetting
I do wonder what country will step up to be the new superpower in research since the US is dead-set on torpedoing what made the country great to begin with. It won't be the UK and I don't think it will be Canada.
ujkhsjkdhf234··on US pauses new student visa interviews as it mulls expanding social media vetting
You don't need to recommend any policy. Simply saying "I don't support genocide" will illicit a negative response from the pro Israel side of things and puts you in the "against" category.
ujkhsjkdhf234··on TeleMessage Explorer: a new open source research tool
> There's more than enough reports from outside the US that credibly allege TikTok is a critical factor in the radicalization and recruitment of the far-right and militant Islamism [1][2][3].

You can find literature to support that claim for Youtube, Facebook, and Twitter, not just Tiktok. The Making of a Youtube Radical was a big story back in 2019. Facebook won the election for Trump in 2016. Twitter is owned by a Nazi who routinely boost far-right conspiracy theories.

The answer isn't banning Tiktok but passing strong privacy and data legislation that affects all social media platforms. Not just Tiktok. US social media companies have been pulling on the seams of society far before Tiktok arrived.

ujkhsjkdhf234··on TeleMessage Explorer: a new open source research tool
It isn't even about that. Tiktok is taking market share from FAANGs. Zuckerberg has spent a pretty penny on this Tiktok disinformation campaign and if you look at the members of Congress behind the ban Tiktok bill, most of them purchased huge amounts of Meta stock before introducing it to Congress. It's corruption all the way down.
ujkhsjkdhf234··on Big banks explore venturing into crypto world together with joint stablecoin
>This plan assumes the current mercurial administration stays their course on stablecoin to replace USD as reserve currency and future administrations also going along with it.

You are operating on the assumption that there will be fair election in 4 years and that Dems will retake the White House. Both of those are unlikely. Trump has almost killed democrarcy in 3 months. I'm sure he'll get the job done in another 3.75 years.
