Is Nvidia's interim CEO (their current CFO) and new board chair going to be more or less risk-averse than Jensen Huang, who resigned today?
And if we think "less risk averse" then what happens next?
Ha, this works. Alaska Airlines phone patch, ha ha.
@glynmoody it's time for women to fix this issue. Their men have to sleep sometime.
@FaithinBones true, but you can bet punishments will be severe if they are discovered...

Hey, so this is what 49 looks like!
@Rob_T_Firefly It's the Modern Technology Watches closet!
nvidia stock down ~20% in the past 10 days, loss of $600 billion.
last night’s dip alone = big tech’s fourth worst one-day loss (-$360b)
jensen: out
I’m always a bit shocked by how common it is for journalists, reporters, and similar types to be thoroughly AGI-pilled
You’re not going to get critical coverage from a dunderhead who believes that digital human-level intelligence is just around the corner.
@baldur Yes… ‘journalism’ these days is less about discovering truth, and more about ‘repeating what has been stated’.
But also think of it this way… you notice when journalists are full of shit in your niche areas of expertise, but most folks think they’re informative when they report about stuff outside their expertise.
Turns out, journalists are mostly full of shit (for various, some justifiable reasons).
@glynmoody Fucking religious extremists! The women 😭 are in such danger.
@connynasch indeed, and it's hard to see how things will get better
@ai6yr it's odd. The largest issue I think is the separation of an economy to the natural resources substrate.
We should be decreasing use. Datacenters increase use, and are a lazy way to excuse a lack of algorithmic refinement in technology.
An algorithm that decreases natural resources use by half is worth more than an arguable (very!) gain in *perceived* productivity.
@knowprose @ai6yr Productivity relative to what... we can measure energy as well as time. Surely what does the job in half the energy is twice as productive!
At #Tougaloo, rows of chairs filled long before the victory speech began, as hundreds gathered at the college that had been both a haven & a proving ground for a generation of #CivilRights activists & #Black leaders.
It had been 8 days since the #election. It had been 63 years since #MedgarEvers, the civil rights leader who led #VotingRights drives in the state, was assassinated in his driveway. And it had been >150 yrs since a Black senator had been chosen to represent #Mississippi
For generations, #Mississippi was a bastion of #slavery, #segregation, #lynching & #Black #VoterSuppression.
#ScottColom will be the third Black senator to represent the state. The first two were chosen by the state legislature & served during Reconstruction — Colom will be the first chosen by voters.

@privacytests AFAIK these settings are exposed, so websites can adjust according to the preferences, not exposing them would defeat the purpose.
@voxel You are right that the settings are exposed to websites for that reason, but it is not necessary to expose the settings to websites. The browser can hide the setting but still provide the accessibility benefit.
For example: the browser (or OS) could adjust the contrast of displayed colors directly: it's not necessary for the website to be aware that colors have been adjusted.
Tracking scripts such as fingerprintjs record these preferences. You can see that here: https://fingerprintjs.github.io/fingerprintjs/

Hey, so this is what 49 looks like!
If we assume that the "engine" is equally efficient no matter what, I think we get the most impact when all the labour is free.
However, I think there is a maximum amount of labour that can voluntarily co-organise. Eventually, as you scale, you have more and more jobs that require focus and attention. And there are jobs that are just not satisfying, or boring, or don't feel like they have impact so volunteers aren't motivated to do them.
an essential part of maintaining a technology is maintaining the culture and society that can repair and produce it
