Our society is structured so that the rich fail upwards, and Elon is a huge failure so he floats the best.

I haven’t heard a single peep of anyone getting paid by twitter since the first few checks went out. I don’t think he’s doing that anymore and it was always completely arbitrary who got paid (by which I mean it was only popular accounts that he liked).
Being a non profit doesn’t exclude you from getting investments. I’m sure the first on the scene leader of this wretched AI bullshit would have no trouble gathering whatever funding they need if they remained a non profit. The only thing this changes is how easily they can extract the profit from the business into private hands.
Gotta keep up the churn so the wages you’ve depressed with imported servants let you hire back for cheaper.
Paying Elon a subscription for a dumb icon and being a priority reply guy is loser shit. Full offense.
Conflicts of interest are like his specialty. Here’s a long letter written by a person who survived his AiDS tenure laying out his various money making ventures with private drug manufacturers to produce worthless, expensive AIDS drugs. Nobody will read it though because the same media that insisted Biden’s brain worked fine and then paid out bribes to Trump’s inaugural fund also insists Fauci is some kind of hero
That's fair. I just assume most people who reflexively insult JS are like that usually because they've written something in it, rather than having dealt with the many vulnerabilities and annoyances browsers have made possible with it
People from outside the industry have seen a profit opportunity and decided to invest. As investors, they think they’re smarter than everyone else, even the people they pay to do things for them. Since they have no attachment to games as a medium they’re wowed by flashy visuals, and since investors have the money you need to produce a game, you cater to their tastes if you want to get paid.
Browser permissiveness didn’t create implicit type coercion.
Not as hard, I agree but reimplementing just CSS sounds like a very special level of hell.
Does it make sense for a CEO to be paid more while the business they manage dwindles?
