Ageing runner, dog lover. Love running with the dogs. Oh, and I love cooking in my wood fired Tandoor.
For those of us with a capitalist framework: Springsteen and Taylor Swift continue to sell music and concert tickets aplenty. Tesla sales are tanking. I wonder if the market is speaking?

When @naomiaklein.bsky.social uses the term "... predatory, extractive capitalism..." is that a tacit acknowledgement that there might be types of capitalism that could be differently described?

Two headlines - roughly 24 hours apart. While Lesufi and his factional politics continue to destroy Gauteng, the country is slowly taking steps in the right direction. #SouthAfrica

An analogy of when @jeffjarvis.bsky.social says: "AI is really not intelligent and it isn't AGI - bah, etc". Its like seeing the Wright brothers fly and saying: "It isn't really flight because they don't fly like birds - bah, this is a machine which will never swoop down on prey like an eagle".

Let me see if I understand this. Australia wants to link tax platforms that carry links to news sites. If the platforms says that's OK - we don't want to link to news anyway, then Australia says that they will fine platforms that won't carry news. Forced speech with a tax on that forced speech!
