Being a customer of a bank and being in a Palantir dataset is not the same. The people in the data are not the customers of Palantir.

> The opinion I may not 'deserve', is that I'm not playing your/ this game.

It's your game regardless if you vote or not. Not voting is in practice the same as voting for who wins. That is the only choice you have at election day. Beyond election day you can try to participate in a movement that pushes congress to implement ranked voting or help get other primary nominees etc, but anything other than voting for the least bad candidate in a two party system is naive.


The difference, I think (as an "over-user" of computers all throughout childhood) is that there were no basis for "they said same about video games", but there is a lot of basis for "social media is a net bad" now.

Do I believe the UK is doing this for the right reason or the right way? Absolutely not. But I also don't agree with the comparison of now and when I was a kid/teen.


There's a case to be made for "real wages" not capturing what they're meant to capture though, at least if you look at housing [1].

And this isn't even considering the productivity growth over time having a widely asymmetrical distribution, ie not captured by the median person.

I was on board with A through C, but then with D it's either clearly a lie or stupidity. I guess it's not a lie technically if they believe it though, so the latter then. But I also don't want to assume someone in their position to be stupid, so then I'm back to the former.

So D undermines A - C in your mind? That doesn't make sense.

Huge IANAL disclaimer to start, but your post started off with:

> No. For it to be securities fraud, Arm would need to make a materially false statement of fact that misleads investors. Naming the CPU in this way doesn't clear the bar because:...

The EVP statement doesn't say "our CPU does AGI", sure, but is it unfair to suggest it makes some form av AGI claim, which isn't there from the naming alone?

It's no longer your point A) "clearly product brand" if the established usage of the term "AGI" comes out of the EVP's mouth.

And yes, their (albeit very vague) claim is clearly wrong IMHO.


I've rebought games on Steam I had on Epic for free, just because the platform is so terrible. As far as a metric goes, that's pretty clear.

It's definitely not about lock-in for me. It's everything from local streaming, to linux support, to cloud saving working properly, to 100s of other things that become apparent if you try to do anything other than launch a game in a bog standard way on a windows machine.


Same. Sometimes I will play a givewayway game on EGS and like it enough to e.g. buy the DLC. In that case I'll buy the game on Steam, just to buy the DLC there too.

Doing Big Picture Mode well is another.

Epic have had decades to get any one of these right, and yet they refuse to meet us even half way on a single point.


Yes, but it's easier to fail when the markdown (or NIH markdown in the case of Confluence) is far removed from the code it describes. Which is why you should document closer to the products. Markdown files living by your code and even generated from code is way better than any experience I've had with Confluence (which is closing up on two decades soon enough).

I used Confluence a mere decade ago and, if anything, the 10 years after you used it only magnified its flaws relatively to what else was by then available so you didn’t miss much, and I suspect we haven’t missed much since, except more bloat.

By that definition all terrible aspects of the concept are the same as the fun.


They "obliterated" their nuclear program last june [0], unless you're calling them liars?

The point isn't "literally everyone can run it", but to refute that "only Bluesky can run it and thus lock everyone in".
