we have control mechanisms for this. it's called The Law. these guys should be held personally liable for these harms. the suicides, the thefts, the intrusions into computer systems. they should be sued and prosecuted as appropriate. problem immediately solved

people are always saying anti-AI arguments don’t understand the full nuances of the technology. which is correct. but only because it stole everyone’s work, exists solely to get you fired, has made the entire internet unusable and has been forced on everyone without consent

Money where our mouth is time, I think. @1password.bsky.social, you are not irreplaceable, even if it will be annoying to do so
to: business@1password.com
subj: Giving DHH money means I won't give you more

Hi there! I've been a 1Password customer on my personal account for about ten years; I started with 1Password 6. I've cumulatively managed about 500 business seats across my career.

I'm about to stop being a 1Password customer because 1Password is sponsoring Omarchy. Omarchy's founder, DHH, is an on-the-record proponent of ethnic cleansing. 1Password giving DHH money for his pet Linux distribution is unacceptable behavior. You should know that, and I should not need to be telling you this, but apparently I have to.

If 1Password wishes to retain my business, the company needs to promptly retract this sponsorship, issue an apology for its mistake, and provide a root-cause analysis for how the decision to publicly align with a proponent of ethnic cleansing came to be.

Thanks for your time.

-Ed

i think the big data center backlash has a lot to do with technology getting worse, costing more, building a surveillance state, destroying the environment, owned by a class of wealthy elite that coalesced behind the fascist regime that made clear they’d sacrifice humanity for their own power growth

If an Al future is what I'm getting left behind from, then Christ, just leave me behind.
A girl can only pivot so much, hoss, and I hung up my pivotin' boots some time ago. I don't make videos even though that was supposedly the future of writing ten years ago — I mean, I guess I do, but they're little banjo practice videos for my friends, not expressions of a desperate careerist impulse. I use social media with the attention-crazed dopesickness of an addict, not the care and forethought of a professional, as any cursory read of my posts will confirm. I'm a writer by trade — a creative, as you might say — and here you are, running a business you don't even understand into the ground, deskilling my trade and expecting a thank you when you explain how you're doing it. If I don't devalue myself the way you continually devalue me, you warn, l'll be left behind. Okay, says I! Quit making it my problem and go! The dust you leave me in will settle, and in the meantime, I will keep doing my work in much the way I've done it since | first became literate.

The idea that every human is a life deserving of fundamental rights, dignity & care—irrespective of race, religion, nationality, ethnicity, sexuality, gender identity, or ability—*is* the common ground. It is the ground of the universal. People opposed to this aren't interested in common ground.

Capitalism requires poverty. That's why we don't fix it. It's not an inevitability; it's a problem with a solution we 100% know and don't enact because it would destabilize the system.

Comic panel of Donald Duck and a wide-eyed young Mickey Mouse. Donald's speech bubble: "Democrats should do a huge middle class tax cut to address affordability." Mickey's speech bubble: "Fool that you are, for you treat taxation as a burden rather than the means by which our burdens are eased. Behold a civilization rich in private wealth yet starved of public provision, where every man owns what his grandfathers could not imagine and yet trembles at the thought of how he will weather an illness or loss of livelihood. Will you fight for an affirmative vision of broad contribution and universal benefit? Or will you perish like a dog?"
