Ich bin ja sonst recht freigiebig mit Daten und Zeug aber nach @npub1j6su...hxfy's Analysen zur ePA habe ich auch mal widersprochen (auch wenn ich grundsΓ€tzlich sowas fΓΌr gar nicht dumm halte, aber es ist eben auch nicht egal, _wie_ etwas umgesetzt ist)
A lot of the time if a structure or event is not what you need it to be, it got where it is for a reason. A lot of the time the structure will fight to keep itself intact.
I am on my second read of David Golumbia's last book "Cyberlibertarianism: The right-wing politics of digital technology" and it makes me miss his intellect and political clarity so much more. He's not pulling any punches.
"Because #AI the 4 day work week can come true".
This is bullshit. Recent studies show that we could feed and house and take care of literally _everybody_'s needs with everyone just working 30% of what we consider "full time" today. We literally could all work less than 2 days every week and be fine. Capitalism just doesn't allow for that conceptually. Don't fall for that bogus argument.
People always tell me it's weird that I don't know my blood type. Just never had a use for that information. But in conversation I get the impression that everyone does. Weird.
For 2025 I think we should just ignore every "AI did this thing" report that does not explicitly state the resource cost (energy/CO2 for training and inference, hardware requirements/e-waste). We just cannot afford burning the planet for technological parlor tricks.
With Substack now explicitly partnering with fascist media operations it's really no longer acceptable to have your blog/newsletter there. Do fucking better.
Things are not "enshittified". It's capitalism. Those things go together, it's not a "broken form" of capitalism or something. Same with "rot economy" and whatnot.
I get that one likes to coin new terms but more and more I feel like those terms are actively making analysis and insight harder: They cloud more than they explain.
