For years, an audacious, global cybercrime operation has been secretly placing young IT workers inside Western companies to work under false identities—all to bankroll the government of North Korea. With AI, their schemes are now more devious than ever.

There is not a significant body of literature that proves humans are naturally greedy and not cooperative. Many prove it’s the opposite or that these traits are the result of societal influence or being deprived of basic needs
Capitalism embraces human nature. Socialism is idealistic.
I consider myself something of a socialist, but I’m not going to pretend that it doesn’t work because of capitalism. It doesn’t work because humans seek power and dominion over each other.

Every time I try to think “why did this or that socialist project fail” the answer is usually something capitalist have done or do all the time and survive. So it feels like an insufficient answer. Capitalists are more powerful and better at centralizing power and deploying it without mercy.

thinking about that one bit in the CW the Flash show where a time travelling poorly animated CGI gorilla tries to kill obama during his college days and references trump's campaign slogan to his face. easily one of the least legible scenes in all of cinema

Eliminating the algorithm would do so much good for the planet, and it would be so easy too.
Just yesterday I was thinking about how, when social media platforms rolled out algorithms, everyone was like “we don’t want that.” And they were like “no no, trust us, the data says you do; it’ll be great.” Now not only are the algorithms not great, they sucked the life out of everything

"Abolish ICE" and "defund the police" are both reasonable and correct on the merits but were absolutely neutered by centrists smearing them as radical activist overreach.
"ICE is a rogue federal agency operating with impunity-destabilizing families, terrorizing neighborhoods, and eroding the very principles of justice it claims to defend. What happened yesterday ... is not an accident-it is the deliberate outcome of a system sliding deeper into authoritarianism."
Providence City Councilor Justin Roias: “Yesterday, ICE tased & detained a Providence resident with a pregnant U.S. citizen wife & a green card interview that same day.”

The important thing to understand about stock traders is they’re required to have acid poured into their ears at least twice a year to kill of them pesky brain cells
Do traders have Stockholm Syndrome? Rally today appears based on WSJ report that we might have "only" 50-65% tariff on Chinese goods.
That's still a huge effing tariff - roughly triple the average effective tariff rate on China last year. US companies still don't have margins to absorb this
