My wishful hope is that because some of the effects (i.e. prices after blanket tariffs) will be so demonstrably bad for their wellbeing, and will appear much quicker, rather than being delayed (i.e. inflation) that they will actually notice that their own side did something bad, and maybe the more moderate, single-issue voters (primarily those on the economy) will wise up and vote against them in 2028.
If we even have an election in 2028, that is.
It's exactly this.
Trump promised easy solutions to the problems caused by the right, and by corporate oligarchs. They went along with it, and voted for him. They're now in for a wild ride.
I’m excited for the future, but not as excited for the transition period.
I have similar feelings.
I discovered LLMs before the hype ever began (used GPT-2 well before ChatGPT even existed) and the same with image generation models barely before the hype really took off. (I was an early closed beta tester of DALL-E)
And as my initial fascination grew, along with the interest of my peers, the hype began to take off, and suddenly, instead of being an interesting technology with some novel use cases, it became yet another technology for companies to show to investors (after slapping it in a product in a way no user would ever enjoy) to increase stock prices.
Just as you mentioned with the dotcom bubble, I think this will definitely do a lot of good. LLMs have been great for asking specialized questions about things where I need a better explanation, or rewording/reformatting my notes, but I've never once felt the need to have my email client generate every email for me, as Google seems to think I'd want.
If we can just get all the over-hyped corporate garbage out, and replace it with more common-sense development, maybe we'll actually see it being used in a way that's beneficial for us.
Yes, yes it does.
I understand why people seem to think we should tolerate these views, because "muh free speech," but to them, I say:
IPFS seems similar to what you're looking for.
(See: A copy of Wikipedia on IPFS being censorship-resistant, and globally distributed)
I like ArchiveBox, but in my experience, it kept on running into issues saving pages, and stopped functioning after it worked the first few times. I really wish there was a more streamlined application that did a similar thing somewhere out there.
I've been looking at Linkwarden's page archiving solution, but it crashes whenever I try importing any large number of links, so that's a bust too.
Reminds me of this great street art I saw posted at some point. Can't find the source though.
And anyone who hurts his feelings, and queer people, and college students, of course.
That's definitely true, I probably should have been a little more clear in my response, specifying that it can run at startup, but doesn't always do so.
I'll edit my comment so nobody gets the wrong idea. Thanks for pointing that out!
To put it very simply, the 'kernel' has significant control over your OS as it essentially runs above everything else in terms of system privileges.
It can (but not always) run at startup, so this means if you install a game with kernel-level anticheat, the moment your system turns on, the game's publisher can have software running on your system that can restrict the installation of a particular driver, stop certain software from running, or, even insidiously spy on your system's activity if they wished to. (and reverse-engineering the code to figure out if they are spying on you is a felony because of DRM-related laws)
It basically means trusting every single game publisher with kernel-level anticheat in their games to have a full view into your system, and the ability to effectively control it, without any legal recourse or transparency, all to try (and usually fail) to stop cheating in games.
Wanting to deport someone for the color of their skin is fundamentally racist, because immigration, broadly, is a victimless crime.
What is "illegal" is not necessarily always immoral, and with the evidence we have available to us surrounding the effects of immigration, they create more jobs, spend more in the economy, produce more tax revenue, do less crime, and take less benefits.
Deporting "illegals" harms the economy, breaks apart communities, and punishes people for a victimless crime, all because some people are afraid that their neighbor might have a little more pigment in their skin, or use different words sometimes.
