We should start typing the numbers out. $13,700,000,000 in cumulative losses, which should leave them with $14,900,000,000 in cash, but they are reporting only $9,600,000,000 in cash. And there is $5,300,000,000 unaccounted for. More than victims of Madoff have not recovered.

Here’s @realgdt.bsky.social in NYC expanding on his rallying cry of ‘fuck AI!’, talking about how art and even love come from shared pain and movies can save your life. This shit made me and others in the audience cry as much as his version of Frankenstein…

Affinity, targeting office workers over pros, making pro tools the loss leader
Canva’s Affinity Strategy: Normies Over Power Users
Canva makes a bold bet with Affinity: The real money is in the rank-and-file office worker, not the pros. It just turned the pro tool into the loss leader.

Receipts: a brief list of prominent articles proclaiming the death of the web.
They say AI will replace the web as we know it, and this time they mean it. Here follows a short list of previous times they also meant it, starting way back in 1997. Wired: March 1, 1997: “You can kiss your web browser goodbye” – Kevin Kelly and Gary Wolf, The Big Story. 1Inspired by the success of PointCast, a clever application that displayed news headlines as a screensaver, our "Push!" story argued that Web browsers were about to become obsolete.

Seeing some disturbing early research around ChatGPT's new Atlas web browser. I strongly recommend caution against using it, particularly to interact with any web sites holding sensitive data.

I know the headline everyone's running with is "erotica" but "we have been able to mitigate the serious mental health issues" and "we are putting personality back in ChatGPT so it will act like a friend" are diametrically opposed statements

that's the cause of most of the mental health issues
Oh good, ChatGPT is getting "erotica for verified adults" later this year

This is what it’s like to be Palestinian: Israel threatening you with “severe consequences” if you express any joy at the homecoming of your loved ones from captivity in Israeli prisons, where they’ve been tortured for decades.
While Israelis celebrated the return of captives from Gaza, Israel warned Palestinian families against holding celebrations over the return of prisoners – some who had been held for decades. Al Jazeera’s Nour Odeh explains.

So many wrongs with both these icons. First, why the need for a squircle background? And the SSD icon looks like a child’s drawing at that scale.
