That doesn’t make any sense at all.

You’re right I guess in that flock isn’t themselves going through audit logs I don’t believe but everything else is incorrect.

I don't really think it is Flocks job to do the auditing. Flocks job is to make auditing possible and to surface abuse to the parties involved in policing the usage.

This isn’t true. Flock has an entire team dedicated to creating these auditing tools.

That’s why we hear about abuse of flock over abuse of axon which does not offer those tools.

It's quickly becoming a replacement for Google for me. When I want to know more about a topic I don't usually go to Google or Wikpedia as often, instead I'll start a dialog with Claude about the topic.

I also use it for writing, exploring complex topics or as a sounding board for interpersonal issues.

const exploring = Object.freeze({ immutable: true }) exploring.thing = 'new'

Property 'thing' does not exist on type 'Readonly<{ immutable: true; }>'.ts(2339)

So it would be a simple way to achieve it.

In all of your examples you're working at a company, ideally the person running the company had that domain expertise.

Revenue growth slid to low single digits, meaning instead of adding 20% more accounts, they only had less than 5% new accounts or revenue

Not just energy, crypto is also using far more rare earth minerals and metals in their excessive utilization of CPUs and GPUs. Batteries to keep things running when power goes out. It's wasting so very many of our resources. There is no defense.

Skateboarding isn't using millions of dollars of energy, that outside of this instance is frequently carbon producing.

Crypto is so inherently wasteful it's completely unethical. At least they're trying to use hydro here but by and large, this is an unreasonable resource grab.

To add to this, the article states it's the equivalent of 570,000 apartments worth of energy.

To what end? There is still no real use case for bitcoin, it can't compete with any modern financial transaction system in performance, it's difficult to secure, it's just a bad deal and I can't understand how we've allowed it to grow as much as it has.

Could they have moved the Zune team to the Xbox team or Surface team, the windows teams to azure or Xbox, etc?

Yeah, the moderation became insane. Every question is a duplicate, every answer is moderated out.

The answers on github and across the web are always much much better and more up to date. I can't remember the last time SO had the answer I wanted or needed.
