Am I the only one to feel this shot of president-elect Musk having burgers is a forewarning that Valentine from Kingsman is now really among us?

Of #Trump, and getting Good Things for the Wrong Reasons, from #AI to #UBI and back

(where I talk #China and #EU too)

Whatever the reason is for

"#EU companies grow and innovate less than American counterparts" (1)

Maybe this also means that "EU companies are less CANCEROUS than American counterparts":

(NOT) Breaking News for all #parents who still believe in getting them and their kids in #education debts for a "career" (#STEM included):

Bourgeoisie isn’t what it used to be:

Question:
"If tomorrow morning an alien race, extremely fragile and unable to physically harm us unless we beg it to do so landed on Earth to rule us, would we accept that or laugh in their face, before kicking their asses back in space?"

I only need to know one thing about this #Google #NuclearEnergy #SMR deal:

When it comes to #smartphones, don't be fooled by INCOMPLETE or UNFEASIBLE advice from pediatricians:

Never mind the FAKE #artificialIntelligence of these days.

Worry about the REAL #AI that's been around for CENTURIES, instead.

Then, be like #IronMan

https://mfioretti.substack.com/p/digital-fake-ai-is-no-problem-only

Do you still believe the ridiculous claims that #AI will overcome us? NO problem. Just learn from Iron Man, and fear the REAL "artificial intelligences" instead:

Things that make foreigners dislike the US:

the feudal conditions of many workers that make out-of-control, ridiculous tipping practices like these a good idea, not a survival necessity, to the workers themselves, but annoy like hell anybody who's seen other systems

PAGERS???

I can't believe what I'm seeing. Pagers, the tiny boxes from the 1990s that buzz and show a phone number when the owner of that number wants to talk with you?

THOSE pagers?

(yes, I'm weird. But right now what really freaks me out is that pagers were used so much, not the attack itself)

whatever other merits this study may have (still reading it) calling #marriage a market is deeply, DEEPLY flawed.

#Facebook VP N. Clegg just confirmed what I said yesterday:

REAL #parents of today are NOT going to manage the complexity (50 tools!) of keeping #children safe INSIDE #smartphones & #socialmedia.

The only solution is to just say NO:
