When interest rates first started going up, one of the first thing's both Amazon and Google started doing was slashing their IoT teams and device support. My guess is now they don't want any existing non-AI smart devices lingering around as alternatives to future LLM-paired devices. Edit: I...

I know there's a Twitter DOGE account that tweets lies, misinformation,and partial truths, but is there an actual source that documents the analysis and justification for each cut? I really wonder if we're going to find out in 4 years during Congressional hearings that a group of...

I really wonder how many laws are being broken to do these mass layoffs (as well as unauthorized data access) and if Democrats will have the willpower to prosecute Elon and DOGE when they retake the Presidency and Congress, pre-emptive pardons or not. An "I'm choosing to only look forward"...

What are investors seeing that people aren't willing to grapple with?

He literally just said TODAY that he could re-impose reciprocal tariffs of up to 50% in the next 2-3 weeks on countries not working on deals (of which he says the current ones being worked on are "going great"). Just as articles were trying to imply TODAY that he was backing off some of his...

Have you thought about personally trying to win your relative back in time for the mid-terms and letting the organizations you talked to know how it went?

Instagram has such an incredibly poor interface and so few features, but people won't give it up. There's article after article (in general) criticizing new phones or operating systems with only iterative updates. And people used to talk abut Twitter not doing enough. But to me Instagram is...

If the EU, liberal US States, and Democrats when they're in power won't cut Tesla subsidies and contracts for his other businesses, then they're not serious about stopping him. If people can't bring themselves to seriously and consistently refer to him as a Nazi or white supremacist, then the...

Similarly, we let off Confederates without consequences.

Yes, I agree freedm of speech should be protected, and far right extremists have hidden behind this to great affect. But at some point there is a line between speech and action, which sounds obvious, but the Supreme Court has labeled so many things as speech. Based on the vetting processes...

Ok, I think I understand our difference. I'm saying that with things already in place as they are now, I like Bezos being an alternative and competitor to Musk, who I view as the worse option. I think you're saying there are better options and we don't have to support any billionaire...

Yes, I agree with you. My point is I think Musk should lose government contracts and subsidies due to being a white supremacist, the same way a supporter of muslim terrorism would.

I never said politics aren't important. I've observed others dismissing and hand waiving away heinous views as just politics. So when someone says "personal political views shouldn't impact Musk's government contracts", my position is being a white supremacist goes beyond personal political...

The right wing tries to label all their heinous beliefs as just politics. And then I hear people say that people shouldn't miss out on government contracts over politics, but we all know a political supporter of muslim terrorism wouldn't win any government contracts. I don't see Bezos...

"Billionaire crypto tycoon Chun Wang becomes digital nomad aboard Nazi space ship --- And it changed the way I think about space" I guess Musk has to be something worse than a Nazi for people give a damn. Sex offender, cannibal, terrorist.... at some point I'd imagine people would draw a line...

Perhaps you're right. I can't say that I disagree with your points. I just don't think of white supremacy as merely politics. In my eyes, Musk is still materially worse because he's a white supremacist. I'm not going to ignore that and only consider things exclusively through class politics.

You're dismissing Musk's white supremacist beliefs and advocacy as "politics". I see it as a material moral difference between Musk and Bezos. And I'm certainly not willing to overlook Musk being a white supremacist in order to address climate change. Fascism isn't exclusively about...

What hate are you referring to? What violence are you referring to? What specific speech was not allowed? where and when did this occur? What damage has been done to destroy the American way of life and how is it specifically being addressed now?

I don't have anything backwards. It sounds to me like you're minimizing Musk's behavior by painting his positions as merely being "red pilled". In my opinion, he's a also white supremacist. His racist retweets on Twitter have nothing to do with the SEC telling him he can't lie about his...
