It's like a little sibling. I'll shit talk my own culture all day, but you make fun of it, then fuck you from here to next Wednesday.

I already don't own an xbox and am happy about it. Checkmate, MS.

I think the main concern is that this is a step towards normalizing extremely frequent price changes, a la Uber surge pricing.

Nice, I'll definitely have to check this out. Thanks for the info!

Ooh, neato! I'll have to give it a go sometime.

Anyone have any comparisons to Logseq? I've seen Logseq and Obsidian compared fairly directly, but I don't remember seeing TiddlyWiki come up in comparisons in that arena when I was looking at it.

It's challenging, because he's challenging to listen to, even though his message is important

...ya know... whatever that is...

Why not? It's a thing that factors into cost of living.

What's the alternative? Just wait until economists have declared the housing market is at some baseline of normalcy before determining pay? Do you really fail to see how rediculous that would be?

'Member when apple didn't launch the iPhone with native app support and used the argument that HTML5 could do everything you could ever want, and they were wrong, but actually right as well?

Yeah, I 'member...

My city recently renamed a street after Nelson Hackett, who was a local slave, but more notably, was the first and only escaped slave to have made it to Canada, and then be extradited back to the US. The road was previously named after Archibald Yell, the governor of Arkansas at the time, who wrote the extradition order. Canadian laws at the time forced the government to respect the extradition, but they found this situation so distasteful that they immediately changed the law to basically make Canada a safe haven for escaped slaves.

Lots of locals didn't know who Archibald Yell was, but now they do, and the road is now named after the slave whose case laid the groundwork for the Underground Railroad because of the governor's actions.

Not just a correction to the person who should really be celebrated, but also an S-tier snub, if you ask me.

Allow me to translate:

We are inviting you to work for free because our content moderation team isn't focussed on actually moderating harmful content.... Well, only if you define "harmful" as "harmful to advertisers' brands." And by "moderation" I mean adding notes to things a la twitter, or X or whatever... Doesn't matter, we just think that Elon was onto something when he outsourced the responsibility of fact-checking to unaffiliated users who can be duped into free labor as long as we dress it up as "making the community better" (like we actually have a platform that actually fosters anything close to a "community" lol). Hopefully you'll steer unearned traffic towards incorrect information so we can make the case to those users that YT is OK with that kind of content without having to say the quiet part out loud, and make the case to advertisers that it's worthwhile to stop caring what kind of content their ads get placed near. Your contributions will be ignored by the general public, especially those who are seeking out inaccurate content, but you'll get the feeling of superiority that comes with hitching a ride on the coattails of someone shittier, yet vastly more popular than you could ever hope to be. Together, we can make Youtube even more money.
