Every time you pay a worker the risk of them owning a little bit of the companies stock increases. And workers owning the means of production is socialism, so that means paying workers is for commies.
Mentioned this to people around me who are owldicted, and it did seem to change a thing. They agree with me the quality has dropped, they heard the stories that the lessons now dont properly teach you the language, but they continue using it. It is telling people not to use their pet names for passwords all over again.
Their twitter account is really odd though and im not 100% sure they are trolling still.
Yeah it gets really weird in the end very EE (Eastern European) sf. (Which often has a bit more fantasy elements in it, compared to more western europe (ignoring psionics here, which despite being fantasy is so ingrained in our idea of SF it doesnt really feel like it) SF. Not that I mind. I read a lot of 70s SF so I found the no fantasy stance slightly odd. Also quite bleak which is also common in more EE SF I heard). I digress. The other things made more impact so I forgot if it was also in the book. Which I enjoyed so you could try going back.
Ah yes one of those great ideas to change the world by changing nothing podcasts.
Isnt trueanonpod a satire account? https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/TrueAnon def some too close to the sun satire here.
Big chance this person is <25 and this is just the reactionary yearning for a better past that never was. Also interesting how they always blame the āLeftā, and not just somebody like Reagan who had actual power, actually caused a measurable shift etc. (Not saying it was great before him, I wasnt there in time and place) But nope popular culture controls the world. Thanks cartoon Obama.

Yes the score is still negative even of they had one win. Note how the glyposate asspull still got 50 upvotes. (And how one person went āwow i have the sameā in reaction to that to then just go āit was glutenā. Enormous levels of contrarian so open minded their brains now have worms stuff. And amazing that all of this started just because Yud thought others were not unbiassed enough to properly understand his argument about training agi safely. Talk about 'I realized my initial goals were impossible so I made secondary goals which were also impossible so Iām going to become a weird (far) right winger scope drift. See also Musk. Whos plans for Mars were replaced with AI robots, and now is starting a company townwith all the women he has kids with (see also āthe implicationā). (Yeah I made up that his women compound and company town are in the same place, but you get my point I hope).
Interesting how they fail in similar ways, Musk ignores the community notes and spouts his bs, vs Yud and ignoring the post (i assume 2023 yud vs 2024 lw) and already going anti meta study (??) in the tweet. Womens compound vs math pets. Weird science fiction bs vs weird science fiction ba. Has group of haters he claims are actually a small (undead) Jewish cabal who are behind all his hate vs Has group of haters who all are (goth) David Gerard.
Also not that this ākey was generated by a person onceā stuff does not validate personhood, it just means an identifiable person was involved once. So, it can be used to blame somebody, not prove personhood
It prob is a āsome culture warrior/bodybuilder misread a piece of research and it turned into a culture war conspiracyā thing. Like soy. (My silly nickname predates the culture war stuff by several decades, it comes from Shadowrun).
E: yes looked it up, comes via RFK of course and is anti seed oils thing. https://www.diningandcooking.com/1742624/america-stopped-cooking-with-tallow-for-a-reason/ and the anti seeds oil thing is an idea that has been spreading through the (far) right blogosphere for a decade or more (that is when I heard of it, so prob existed before that).
Our friends of the pod at lw also joined in https://www.lesswrong.com/posts/DHkkL2GxhxoceLzua/thoughts-on-seed-oil (but it concludes the seed oil theory is full of shit, points for LW there, well done (dont read the comments, there is roundup in the seed oils)).
On other dire notes, while it could just be the oblivion remaster, according to indie game devs, the already steadily declining income (long tail turns out to mostly not be a thing) of games has really cratered in april. Sex workers also report the general economic outlook being very bad. And if that isnt enough terrible news there is also this
Horrible ārubberhosingā of cryptocurrency people continues. Guardian article, content warning, bit extremer than a rubber hose.
Ah yes the centrist grey/gray tribe. āProstitutionā(ow look a shibboleth, see also āsex workā), and āabortion marketsā(??) vs kidney markets.
Im reminded of Jordan Peterson once dropping without a hint of self awareness, that conservatives have a higher disgust response.
Not really related but perhaps entertaining titbit, in the metro 2033 video game series they use high quality ammo as currency. Cant recall if this also happened in the book.
āmarkets should reward the bestā is quite something
Crypto vs houses also has the problem that the former is hard to reposses. So not great to base a financial system, where people will default/be scammers/etc on. But of course they consider this a pro not a con. As they are often āim mad gov spend some money (muh taxus!!!1!!) on stuff I disagree withā types. So hoarding would be worse but now in crypto. And there is no reason why speculation in cryptoshit and real estate cant exist both at the same time, like now in reality. Gold didnt fix housing, so why would bitcoin. But yeah, think they are the common clay of the new west.
Wow, Bitcoin was the solution for that. That is a first. Might have found a first real usecase.
Wonder if the big cyberpunk authors wrote about that, somebody prob knows.
