I actually want to know the answer to this question too, but it would be very New York if the only way to get basic competence is to sue.

This is my new neighborhood. Wild how corrupt this Eric Adams crony repping us in Albany is. Can’t wait to replace her with this dude.
Which raises the question: "WTF is Cloudflare and what does it do?" Remember when this happened with Fastly?
Is it me or is something funny with @cloudflare.social today?
Some form of this was inevitable. The US should follow suit when a rational government is back in power.

I just wrote a @socialists.nyc letter: Tell Albany to End Collaboration With ICE! . Write one here: actionnetwork.org/letters/tell...
Destroying 10mbpd of demand sounds… awesome.
Oh cool thank you! Will check out.
How did I miss this panel? Just finished The Verifiers; what a three-point landing with the auto-correct (sequel-) predictive nudge! Jane is apparently not on here so I cannot tag her and be accused of flattery. Gonna go get The Rivals now.
Round 3 #NoKings #YasQueens @theactionnetwork.bsky.social event: (Forest Hills). RSVP: actionnetwork.org/events/queen...
There’s a lesson in here somewhere about the way language evolves… “telephone” (*with* the T) was a newfangled buzzword once. “Podcast” is the survivor in this set, wouldn’t you agree?
Believe Trump used a synonym for “Mission Accomplished” few days before a bunch more shit blew up including the gas price, credit spreads, etc.
Without dipping into behavior, by which I take it you mean consumer behavior, the biggest friction I see is institutional behavior, otherwise known as the way individual humans behave when in groups and at work: the “make the quarter” culture of capital allocation, confusing models with reality.
Agree, but this is the job of actual political leaders, the likes of which we currently don’t have (at least not placed with sufficient agency; I have my thoughts on the bench, so to speak…), so you can’t really underwrite it as an investor which I think is the primary position Jigar is coming from.
🗽 Thoughts on @mayor.nyc.gov’s #StPatricksDay address: retelling Irishness, New Yorkerness… & someday soon, Americanness. TL;DR: the implications for the nation are underappreciated, though I think that other malign genius of our times intuits them in his unerring way... substack.com/profile/3935...
Sunnier than Gibson's intent, and than history since?
"Eunice is going to open... AI to everyone. Universal agency! Product support by a benevolent god. A ray of hope that the “good internet” represented by Eunice can save stubs from kleptdom. Love it"
Very intrigued for post-slopbot Jackpot 3.
"...the thing [Gibson] did with Verity is non-standard. She has almost no agency, and little real effect on the story arc... never gets a decisive turnaround moment... a deliberate move, meant to emulate our individual helplessness before... history as generated by criminals and assholes."
Delighted to discover @rudytheelder.bsky.social's interview with @greatdismal.bsky.social just before *Agency* dropped. Some choice outtakes relevant to my own theses:
And of course the smart people at @cplusc.bsky.social have weighed in with some actual challenging thought. open.substack.com/pub/climatec...
Is this happening already? Where? And if not, why?
Like, here’s the figure it thought you wanted, now tweak the limbs like a 3D rendering, maybe in 3D on a phone screen with pressure-sensitive touch? As intuitive to play with as an artist’s wooden anatomical figure.
When will AI image tools make a user-friendly interface that abstracts away the functions of LORAs, control nets, and all those other things I know exist but have no reason to learn how to use as a non-frequent visual creator?
I’m starting a very weird Substack. Why? Only one way to find out.
C'mon Kevin, just another 300 bps, please bro
Bad take. Surveill away.
Oops NRPI rite gize?
AI economy != lots of net-new AI jobs apparently
