manager // 50% stupide for the bit, 50% pour de vrai

Je traduis : les grands fonds de placement et les marchés mondiaux bavaient à l'idée que Bolsonaro applique toutes les privations qu'il promettait pour piller le Brésil. Manque de bol, Lula a gagné, et ils grognent comme un caniche qui a pas eu ses croquettes.
🚨🇧🇷 Le Brésil est en train de vivre une journée NOIRE sur les marchés. Probablement la pire journée de son histoire depuis 40 ans. En cause : le programme économique de Lula (socialiste). Que les marchés jugent catastrophique. Pour vous faire un résumé, en une seule journée : 1/ Le taux à 10 ans est montée de +300 points (à 16,33% 💀) 2/ L'indice boursier 🇧🇷 a chuté de -17%. 3/ Le Real 🇧🇷 a perdu -11% contre le dollar. 4/ Et surtout, clairement le plus alarmant : le trésor brésilien vient d'annuler des obligations en URGENCE. Quand un État annule ses propres émissions de dette en urgence, c'est qu'il n'y a plus assez d'acheteurs aux prix qu'il espérait. C'est l'un des signaux les plus graves qui existent sur les marchés obligataires.

The issue with “AI bros” is that they lack vision. They lack intention. Everytime a new tool drops, everyone races to see what thing can rip off next. They taunt you as they recreate something that already exists except, faster, cheaper, and slightly worse. And when you say “this sucks”, they cannot understand that you don’t mean the quality. The quality is quite good. Sometimes incredible. The quality is not what sucks. What sucks is that they aren’t making something with intention. They have a general end goal in mind and type in the words to get there. But that’s now how good things get made. When you are making art, designing, making music, solving problems, beauty is a product of not knowing the end goal. The goal creates itself as you are creating.

I bought tickets a couple days before and went to the Alamo with some friends. I ate a hotdog and some mozzarella sticks
In San Francisco, you can't just watch a new movie. You’re invited to a VC funded screening. You wait to see if you get off the waitlist. You text your friends to see if they're going to the same one and no, not that other one that everyone else went to. You thank the startup (ty @ExtendHQ!) for hosting. You post online that You Saw Everything to humble brag that you went a watch party.

No one: AI people: In case anyone’s wondering, we’re evil, and we want to make the world worse.
In case anyone's wondering, the expectation at the frontier labs is basically this: 1) We grit our teeth as the world slogs its way through the cyber apocalypse. (They've been expecting it for years, and calling it the "vulnpocalypse" internally.)

« Aucune mort ne me réjouit jamais – y compris celles de ceux que je souhaite voir partir. » On parle d’une petite fille de 12 ans touchée par huit impacts de balle
Je suis sincèrement triste pour la tuerie de Trappes. Aucune mort ne me réjouit jamais – y compris celles de ceux que je souhaite voir partir. Je ne peux m’empêcher d’anticiper avec angoisse, que demain, ils pilleront et crameront à nouveau nos rues, et Trappes sera un prétexte de plus pour agresser et détruire des vies d’innocents. Heureusement que nous n’incendions pas la France entière à chaque Lola, à chaque Thomas, à chaque Philippine, sinon il n’en resterait plus rien.

DHH sees civil unrest over shitty living conditions as a "consequence of mass migration". this is how they indoctrinate you. someone who gained a following doing something at the right time is using it to peddle lies like this. DHH is a liar. In my eyes, that's all he'll ever be.

This has nothing to do with immigration you massive piece of shit
Mass immigration has been a catastrophe for Europe. There is no issue more urgent before the continent than to correct this mistake.

Just truly upsetting how quickly this scene became invaded by clout chasers, self aggrandizing posers and people who simply do not give a fuck about games. I'm so tired of this.
decomp.dev, a site to track decomp progress, is being sunsetted after 2 years. this is due to a lot of reasons but i'll cover the main reasons in this thread.

The whole point of art, in fact the point of engaging with another person's thoughts in any capacity, is to expand your very limited individual perspective on the world, not to live in a tiny box perfectly catered to your adolescent personal tastes

I am not joking when I say this. Traveling is over. Google Street View is now very, very good. You just don’t know yet because all the street views you’ve seen are from 2-3 generations ago. Google Street View has solved infinite personalized travel.
I am not joking when I say this. Spotify, Apple Music, and streaming in general is over. AI music is now very, very good. You just don't know yet because all AI music circulating today is from ~2-3 generations ago. Suno v6 pro et al has solved infinite personalized music.

“a world that no longer exists” Have you noticed that AI boosters always talk in these ridiculous apocalyptic alarmist terms like this. Nuance is an anathema to a hustler trying to sell you the snake oil before they get run out of town by the authorities.
People calling this AI slop are just desperately trying to hold on to a world that no longer exists. This was really cool.

get ready for "AI personhood" discourse in which very serious arguments are made that sufficiently advanced AI models are more deserving of rights than you are
For people who deny AI personhood for any AI model at any point in the future, you're going to need better arguments than this. There are arguments out there, but once agents can solve Navier-Stokes, write music and poetry, and provide people with seemingly fulfilling life advice, this kind of line is just not going to be persuasive. "YOU'RE CRAZY" no longer lands.
