Sacks, Thiel und Page haben Kalifornien verlassen, bevor die Vermögenssteuer abgestimmt wird. Vorausdenken ist das Privileg der Reichen. Für alle Verbliebenen: Super-PACs — in den USA legale Kampagnenfonds ohne Spendenobergrenze — stehen bereit. Solidarität unter Superreichen funktioniert wirklich.

At 27 pages into Gil Duršn’s new book “The Nerd Reich” I came full stop at this sentence:
“As many political schools of thought do, these technolibertarians make a philosophy out of a personality defect.”
Simply and elegantly stated. The various techno-optimistic philosophies running around Silicon Valley and the venture capital community are toxic and inhumane. We are desperately in need of a new tech manifesto that puts human wellbeing, acceptance, compassion and love as first principals. Why do we write code if not for this? The current direction of technology leadership has taken a wrong turn onto a dark and destructive path. This needs to change.
This is a great book so far. Highly recommend it.

A generation of PMs made a career out of copying ideas from other apps they've seen into their own app. Today, AI (which has seen every app) can do this 100x faster than any of them.
The only problem is that doing this was always pointless
This week's issue of the Product Picnic newsletter breaks down this problem and surfaces some tools for thinking in workflows (or just plain thinking) rather than worrying about atomic features.

So I just switched ISPs and went from a provider router to my own router.
Odd things on the network. My router could see devices and servers but I couldn't access them from my computer.
Said devices and servers had static IPs.
I entirely missed the default IPs going from 192.168.0.xxx to 192.168.1.xxx with the router switch.
lol
well that and rebooting the router 3 times but youtube kept playing??? cache is fun haha

Content warning: UKPol kids and images and tech
I see the prime minister and home secretary are lying, just blatantly lying, about the existence of technology which can tell how old someone is and whether an image is porn or not.
They claim this technology already exists in phones and just needs to be turned on.
I mean, judges at trials haven't been able to describe what is or isn't pornography, but apparently I guess they should have just turned on the software switch in their phones! Easy!
No phone can know it's operator's age. Even if the phone's owner is registered, it can't know if it's being operated by it's owner or not.
The PM and Home Sec are lying that they think there's no reporting, no data-collection, no spying, no monitoring, involved in their impossible imaginary tech they demand must be implemented in 3 months.
They are lying that adults can turn it off without having to register the owner of the phone and it's ID with a central database.
Never head anyone even mention the environmental consequences of burning power to pass every image a camera takes through a large neural network to have it be classified as porn or not, so at least they haven't had to lie about it being free and easy and not burning energy to classify every image taken in the UK.
Good thing they have little chance of being in power when their deadline hits and the tech companies have failed to turn on the imaginary software switch to do impossible things.
Sadly, Burnham's government will probably do much the same.

Execs think that AI can magically fix all their org's problems: their data problem, their PDLC problem, their PMF problem.
But AI is not magic. It's just a technology — and like all novel technologies, incorporating it into your process only expands the number of things that can and will go wrong.

Handoffs drool, meetings rule. To fully realize our design vision we MUST coordinate with other people, and therefore deliberately design our meetings to be effective. But instead we are ceding the influence that meetings give us, to focus on LLM-powered solipsism.

Designers talk a big game about "empathy" for users. But empathy without respect is nothing more than pity.
And nowhere is the lack of respect more apparent than in how LLMs have been productized and adopted. The "human in the loop" excuse pushes consequences down onto scrupulous employees and ultimately onto the very users on whom we claim to be centered.
The consequences of disrespectful software are now becoming apparent across tech.

The job of management boils down to deciding where to invest company resources to maximize returns.
But saying yes to one thing means saying no to something else. Deciding what gets cut (and getting buy-in for those decisions) is hard! So instead they started agitating for "velocity" in a foolish belief that they would never have to prioritize one idea over another ever again.

I like Tchaikovsky's views on genAI, from the there's no "I" in it and the Chinese Room argument to what he says about the artistic process. Oh, and his advice to young writers / artists: "I mean... don't use it?"
