Now that is someone who has thought about this question a lot

Legally the product is no longer their priority, maximising shareholder profits is their priority.
Not many companies manage to not get twisted to a worse product for the customers, though their ads get really good
Vegans hate this one weird trick
This graph really just makes me think we are fucked, like really fucked, easily in the span of a human life time, if not a few years.
How will this not have crazy knock on effects?
Yet I still go to work and plan for the future and just live my life in some sort of daze. Still tell myself I’ll find a wife and have kids one day.
I wonder if I just allow myself to live the ignorance is bliss life, the embodiment of the “this is fine” meme, like so many on this world. Easier just to go with the human flow as we slowly all jump off the cliff like a herd of buffalo.
A culture of glorifying tans, mixed with needing a reason to show off your southern cross tattoo, beautiful weather and free public BBQs at parks and beaches.
Remember to slip, slop, slap
Worth saying I am sort of playing devils advocate here.
Change it to what? It is easy to back seat yell “Capitalism Bad” but change to what? Every other isim has it’s own laundry list of issues. Which one is least corruptible by sosciopaths?
You don’t think sosciopaths are going to take more than there fair share in socialism, or skew the system over time? They aren’t going to find their may to the top in every single form of government to change the rules to their desires?
Quite a few will argue that we aren’t even in capatalisim any more, it has been corrupted and changed, massaged by “government” to the point of failure, the Austrian school of economics.
So it is easy to stand on the roof top and say “Capitalism is the problem” but it seems like a much deeper rot to me
Three screens billed as “business expense” actually used as a sim racing rig.
But you will end up filling any screen space you have. When coding I very quickly fill out the space, to see files and folders I am intereacting with, communication apps, websites, IDE, ticket screen. Some days I wish I had 4.
By that definition to get rid of capitalism we need to get rid of the people.
I was thinking about this the other day. I think no matter the system those willing to break the rules and find the cracks will always do so.
It isn’t a capitalism problem it is a human problem
Por que no los dos? Why the urge to dilute it to a black or white issue? Why can’t it be the people and the current society? I am a gaming addict, I know it is up to me.to change that and not fall in the hole. Could there also be a society change, of course, but it is not 100% my problem or 100% societies problem.
I can fight my own phyche and make small gains, then spend that spare time to improve my community.
Society is fucked, but we can all try and make it a bit better
Random thought, do Lemmy posts show up in searches?
I’m pretty sure that’s how I ended up at reddit. After so many google searches lead me to the site, I decided to check it out some more
As a slight positive it will hopefully reduce the reliance on wide spread pesticides and fertilizers.
For some people admitting they were wrong is too hard
I think GPT5 will be eye opening. If it is another big leap ahead then we are not in this local maxima, if it is a minor improvement then we may be in a local maxima.
Likely then the focus will shift to reducing hardward requirements for inforarance(?) Allowing bigger models to run better on smaller hardware
I have heard that name a lot, I will have to give it a go
That is the double edged sword though. Get cool features - lose true plain text
All the benchmarks put the equivalent Nvidia cards almost 2x more in Stable Diffusion https://www.tomshardware.com/pc-components/gpus/stable-diffusion-benchmarks
I hope that is an old benchmark and times have changed, but I can’t find anything like it that is more recent.
For a bit of my soul I get a lot more ai power.
AI works on AMD but the speed doesn’t seem to be anywhere near Nvidia.
I wonder this with obsidian also, it is one of the things that keeps me from diving in head first.
It seems a lot of its “powerful” functions are against it’s plain text advantage. However I don’t really see an easy way around it.
At least at the end of the day you or someone else could write a script to modify the plain text files for the next app.
Infinite growth on a world with finite resources, what could go wrong?
If a company doesn’t make their projected 7% gains every year it is front page news and it is deemed a failing business. “ohh no we only made 120 million dollars this year, how will we feed the shareholders kids”
A good chunk of my work is scheduled turning off and on again in the right order so things don’t break
