Unpopular opinion:

Developers are some of the most demanding customers to please with developer tools, and are one of the hardest business to make a profit in.

When we feel something is a ripoff... we'll build ourselves/migrate/adopt a new tool.

Often out of spite!

Every big tech earnings call is going to be CFOs having to answer why they’re spending BILLIONS on AI when DeepSeek can match the best models from OpenAI for $6M.

It’s going to be chaotic.

For a long time Big Tech pretended to be about something other than profit and control, but they were always just the next stage of capitalism.
i never under why people said Silicon Valley was exceptionally liberal when women and people of color have always been very underrepresented and discriminated against there.

One additional thought to add to Hank Green's excellent video: the current phase after "the Internet" is ML recommendations and targeted ads allowing popularists to be popular with everyone. youtu.be/d8PndpFPL8g @hankgreen.bsky.social

The big story here seems to be that NYT set out on a fishing expedition to find Dems willing to suggest that trans people cost them the election. NYT's anti-trans bias is undefeated.
My first for Rolling Stone: Did the NYT create the whole “Dems in disarray over trans rights” thing?

Rep. Seth Moulton says they started it.

I interviewed the Dem congressman who unintentionally sparked a narrative that trans rights hurt Dems in the election.

Democratic Lawmaker Clarifies He's Not 'Suddenly Anti-Trans'
The Democrat argues the media has been unfair, but says Dems must “engage in the debate” over trans policies — or Republicans will fill the vacuum.

🔵 Sólo quiero recordar que el alcalde de Peñalolén ganó por 148 votos, en Ñuñoa el alcalde ganó por 1,245 ... tú voto puede marcar una diferencia, no lo tires a la basura.

As a scientist who is the director of science communication for the medical center of a major university, my advice is:

Please don't rely on an economist who has spread misinformation about COVID to advise you about how to effectively message on public health.
