Big brain tech dude got yet another clueless take over at HackerNews etc? Here's the place to vent. Orange site, VC foolishness, all welcome.

what do anthropic, aws, and palantir all have in common? except for being the fucking worst, of course
the [https://techcrunch.com/2024/11/07/anthropic-teams-up-with-palantir-and-aws-to-sell-its-ai-to-defense-customers/](dollar signs in their eyes) seem to share a bit of a glow..
I swear to god post the map with lots of diagonal arrows one more time
?
lol, no, but this was good post
some inane fucking thing from bloomberg or NYT or someone’s Bad Visualisations Department. it’s at least 35 points of psychic damage

it's really fucking dumb because trump got 2 million less votes than in 2020. really great map for learning the wrongest possible lesson from this election.
ikr i've already seen it too
I have been having this feeling in a couple places too, heh
My hope is that either more progressive third party options become more viable OR the dems finally understand that being essentially republican is a bad strategy and actually become progressive. I know the reality is that the dems will learn nothing from this as they have clearly learned nothing from 2016.
I'll bet quite a lot that they'll learn the exact wrong thing from this and decide that they just weren't republican enough.
Overton window, more like overton viewfinder. Point it wherever you like and the median voter will agree everything to its left is radical extremism.
Hope is a mistake 2028!!!
and for 2032:
The worst part about Trump being president is Trump being president for a year. The second worst part is Vance being president for the next three (after Trump dies of heart failure). The third worst part is the fact that I've been owned in a way I can't even explain to my closest friends.
What did sideburns ever to do that guy?
the bit i wonder about is: would president couchfucker block weapons exports to Ukraine
Most likely. Backing out of international obligations and supporting fellow authoritarians seem to be pretty consistent aspects of what passes for MAGA ideology.
i guess this depends on how much vested interest (monetary) he has in MIC
trump seems to treat nato as america's weapons shop buyers club
The third worst part is the fact that I’ve been owned in a way I can’t even explain to my closest friends.
Oh god, this so much. Well, third worst for me personally, as a non-American white guy. I suppose Palestinians, Ukrainians, and marginalized groups in the US might have a few issues they'd rank higher.
