‘… many tech titans, Steve Jobs in particular, limit the amount of technology their children access…‘

Is he not aware that Mr. Jobs has been dead for over a decade?

Ahh yes, much like abstinence only education worked so well for teen pregnancy rates.

Didn’t the FT both vet his numbers and also publish on the same leak?

Reports which are (un)surprisingly light on actual financial details regarding their AI ‘investments’ and any profits therein.

Reciprocal tariffs alone don’t make much sense, it’s just making things for Canadians more expensive with an adversary that’s larger and can sustain them longer (although how long remains to be seen with guilt yields rising.)

If they really want to hurt them start making it legal to circumvent DRM on American products and allow build meaningful replacements.

Several of the links go to the wrong films, almost all of which are not free?

This reads like Dynamicland is no longer a thing. Their website seems to end in 2024. Anyone have any idea what Bret Victor is up to these days?

You didn’t like the broader consensus views towards llm usage but that doesn’t mean it wasn’t ultimately a positive to their community that you left. It sounds as though there was a mismatch in what you and the broader group wanted so perhaps a non-confrontational split is the best that could be hoped for in this situation?

It is, on hacker news, easier to imagine the end of the world than the end of capitalism it seems.

This is echoing a term made by Varoufakis about an increasing amount of money being held by a smaller and smaller group, not a return to literal peasant existence. It’s not feudalism, it’s ‘neo-feudalism’.

The argument that labour can move is true, except where it can’t. Look at the entire towns of miners made irrelevant with no replacement to their jobs. Sure you might say they can move half way across the country to clean toilets but they have skills, a family and houses somewhere else.

Where the argument of a feudal analogy really rings true is the increasing attempt to do back to extraction of rent for everything. Subscriptions for everything, including homes are becoming more and more normal. Are we really okay with a world in this form?

Same here, at least three nearby no longer exist and are now flats already.

I guess prepare for an acceleration of the same.

Amateurs. One close to me is at an +821% increase in its tax bill and rateable value at 613%.

Good for the time but dated. When your negative is the big it doesn’t matter as much but it’s absolutely not as sharp as more modern constructions. It’s also arguably a step down to use his printed body versus the original Mamiya press in terms of functionality other than reduced weight. Still an impressive design though.

It uses mamiya press lenses, the focusing helicoid and shutter are in the lens.

It’s also worth seeing how many US superfund sites are on former chip fabs. Intel, AMD, Fairchild etc. all just dumped things down the drains.

Regulations can be bad but they can also stop environmental disasters from happening.
