What's hyperbolic? The trust thing is borne out by repeated polling of which countries people trust. The current US administration is openly profiteering from governing.

I do think it'll take a few years before Americans wake up to how badly their reputation has tanked around the world across successive governments of either party in the recent decade.

Greenland, Iran, Falklands, Ukraine, Gaza, Taiwan, all these things probably feel like minor missteps in the US news cycle but they have had a major impact.


It's not quite a mafia state yet. We've yet to see Trump opponents fall out of windows.

Your digital identity would then be under the jurisdiction of the US government, who (despite talking a big game) are arguably worse for that same sort of behaviour.

If anyone has to have this type of control, better it be a local national government that you can in at least some small way influence.


No it isn't. The 1A is held strongly even by the most reactionary parts of American politics and jurisdiction. You will not be thrown into a jail just for expressing your support for a group as it happens in the UK.

People were jailed over Charlie Kirk statements within the last year...

You've never seen someone refer to Europeans or Germans..?

I'm not sure if surveillance is on a par in the UK anymore. ANPR (police run license plate recognition system that scoops up all plates that pass) was a big point of contention during 90s and 00s, but even that has been superseded by Flock (private collection, no major legal safeguards, AI based constant review rather than human review etc).


Honest question, because I am not sure: could they become a gaming GPU company again in a quarter? Or have they restructured manufacturing away from them to produce data centre GPUs?


You’re credulous about the concept of someone working part time?


Partime jobs are for people which doesn't have time for fulltime jobs (like students), or people with schedule not suitable for fulltime job (like single mothers), or elderly with low pensions.

All these jobs are for unqualified (minimum training max.) workforce, with low pay and big turnaround of workforce. Literally to supplement fulltime employees for peak period of day (like waitresses at night).

Nothing to support a normal life (decent living, decent car, some vacations). Noone capable of working qualified fulltime job would downgrade their living standards to "bare minimum" of people having only partime jobs.

People living in mamma hotel bubble have hard time understanding how all their bullshit is easily debunked by people living outside that bubble.

Nothing to support


Feels like there’s a lot of projection going on there.

I’ve worked with a lot of professionals over the years who chose to work part time (and have done myself too). Various reasons, but mostly it boiled down to valuing their time and wellbeing more than grinding full time.

The thing about “living standards” is, like many standards they change depending on your priorities.


Please give us list of the imaginary professions you and all your imaginary friends worked as parttime.

Lets have a laugh.


who said anything about working part time?


Basement dweller has hard time understanding the thread structure.


It’s beyond naive to think this falling apart will not hit the jobs and finances of ordinary people who never touched ai investment.


Probably should be telling the design team to actually use the colours that are approved then.


Nah we don't do this "communicate" thing in here.


Why does your username contain “APU”?


It’s part of my identity? Nobody is going to see those letters, google them, find my products, figure out wtf they even are and buy them. To call it marketing is stretching the definition to the point of absurdity.

The idea that you can’t even in passing mention something you spend all day every day working on, because then it’s “marketing” is exactly the sort of consequence which leads to so many of us loathing marketing as an industry.


Didn't we just have a round of people being fired and arrested in the US for saying mean things about Charlie Kirk?
