Tech insider at a place you've definitely heard of. Seen stuff you haven't yet. Those tech newsletters you subscribe to? You're wasting money on guesses and people mostly selling your outrage back to you. Stop following the crowd, you're going nowhere.

When you can't imagine what it's like to have free time or can't see that there a million things you could do with it
My question is what are people who use The Agentic Web planning to do with all the time "saved"? You don't work or plan family events. You don't talk to coworkers or peers or read emails. You don't make playlists and you don't listen to podcasts or books. What are you doing when you wake up?
Wouldn't do this in a million years

The most online people in the world get so mad when new stuff comes online.
They can walk away, opt out, or just refuse to engage anytime. It really is that simple.
It's either like they've forgotten this or they can't control their FOMO.

That's why he thinks AI is great.

Google has renamed the Gulf of Mexico as the Gulf of America in its Maps application for users in the U.S. People located in Mexico will still see the name Gulf of Mexico, while international users will see both names, the company said. The change follows an executive order from President Trump.

Yes, this AI-generated search result is complete bullshit.
And no, you cannot see what I originally typed in to generate the search result.
Please, just join me in my outrage. Your naive cynicism and lack of critical thinking ability are fun to exploit. Like and repost!

Zuckerberg to Meta employees: "Buckle up"
I wonder when the last time Zuckerberg buckled up was. Safe to say that the unspoken part of his message was "...so I never have to."

(Bloomberg) -- Mark Zuckerberg lamented the rise of "culturally neutered" companies that have sought to distance themselves from "masculine energy," adding that it's good if a culture "celebrates the aggression a bit more."

Met with a former Meta leader today who had a strong reaction to the fact-checking team news from yesterday. They summed it up this way, "Everything Mark said was ridiculous. He's so clearly and transparently trying to kiss Trump's ass."

Anybody got a link from a reputable source confirming Google has given money to Trump's inauguration fund?
I keep seeing them listed with others who donated, but every article I've read leaves them off the list.

Something I'll never understand:
Why don't all the opinion writers who hate the web just start a tech company and fix it? Or at least be a beacon of their idea of a better internet?
They should do that. They've done the hard part - written a couple hundred words about what they don't like
