Vital piece of investigative reporting from Sky. They've uncovered the X algorithm which feeds users extremist right wing material from the moment they join the site. It is a far-right radicalisation engine, by design.

Meta earns $3.5 billion every six months from showing Faceboon and Instagram users 15 billion “higher legal risk” scam ad impressions a day, internal documents state.

Hey @official-aias.bsky.social and @officialgdc.bsky.social
Are you waiting until this rhetoric Musk is supercharging gets someone killed to leave his platform where it is radicalizing young men?
Or since, you aren't leaders, will even then you just wait to see if other people leave first?

After years of complaining about cancel culture, the current administration has taken it to a new and dangerous level by routinely threatening regulatory action against media companies unless they muzzle or fire reporters and commentators it doesn’t like.

I’ve started playing a new F2P mobile game after spending….. far too long on a previous one.
The first interesting thing I’ve discovered is that you basically must pay gems/money every day, or somebody else will break into your camp and ransack the place

X’s business model went from subscriptions to suing advertisers for antitrust violations for boycotting their platform.
It’s worked on brands as varied as Verizon and Ralph Lauren. This is helped by the fact the FTC is investigating advertising watchdog groups over the boycotts.

/7 The rhetorical trick I perceive from people like McArdle is that they try to treat the venomous, racist, sewer-like conditions of Twitter as the normal and natural status quo and suggest that reaching to it is unreasonable, like being mad at the weather or something.

Even if you look at complex and emergent game systems, like procgen, you find players talking about the "system" as that thing they are trying to beat and/or collaborate with. That system is a designed thing.
Gen AI also doesn't have an interesting system, there's nothing to outsmart, learn, etc.

If I spend ten years restoring a Corvette with the intent of one day driving it, and you come into my garage, burn everything down and then hand me a check for the amount I spent on paint that year, that’s not a refund or a fucking “dividend”
