They only have to moderate content from users on their server, and the idea would be that only CBC employees (or programs) would be given accounts which also verifies they are legitimate. Readers subscribe to those accounts from their own instances.
Yeah, and due to the falling replacement rate the world population itself is starting to level off and may even start to decline. That’s why conservative political parties are all doing everything they can to force people into having children, because large corporations can only exist with a large and ever growing customer base.
It’s the eternal cycle:
At it’s core, Salesforce is basically a database. You can create custom objects (tables) and fields (columns) tailored to your business’ needs to store anything and everything. But you can’t just easily replace it with a database because they have tons of layers of automations and workflows built on top to make it insanely user friendly: Customer sends an email and it’s automatically logged and tickets opened, sales person has a call and can create quotes and they are automatically sent to the correct people for approvals, managers can get access to accounts managed by their team but not the entire company, etc. It’s the “works out of the box but still let’s you customize them” business process automations and UI that make Salesforce what it is.
It’s not a “community”, it’s one person making all the posts because I guess they wanted to make hating Linux their entire personality. 🤷
Yeah, Tesla made this claim about the model X being full self driving in 5 years and being able to become an autonomous taxi while you weren’t using it. Still waiting on that one…
When did people stop wanting to learn anything? Everything has to be dumbed down to the level of toddlers otherwise people can’t be bothered.
To me the fediverse is great because you need higher than a room temperature IQ to use it so the posts are already far greater quality and the interactions are more meaningful than any other social network. Meta can keep all the screaming adult children in their platform.
They’re too late, there’s going to be way too much AI generated garbage in their data and so many social media platforms like Reddit and Twitter have already taken measures to curb scrapers.
My new rule of social media: Unless I know and trust the person or the organization making a post, I assume it’s worthless unless I double check it against a person or organization I trust. Opinions are also included in this rule.
The post mentioned a wireless mesh network, so it sounds like the ISP/provider already has a bunch of wireless access points set up to cover the whole building. One of the problems with high-density living spaces is that there are only a limited number of communication channels WiFi can use, so if everyone living there also runs their own wireless networks they use up all the available channels and have to cross-talk over eachother, leading to everything slowing down.
Before Elon acquired Twitter, the platform enforced an one-sided policy of censoring right-wing points of view. It even started actively shielding the left from any criticism, such as when the Hunter Biden Laptop story was blatantly censored so as to not affect Joe Biden’s presidential campaign negatively.
What’s funny is that there are a slew of articles from 2019 to 2022, before Musk’s takeover, talking about a study that found Twitter’s algorithm actually had a right wing bias because conservative opinions generated higher engagement (both positive and negative) so it boosted them more than liberal ones.
Also Elon has censored many news stories about himself and his companies since his acquisition. He hasn’t stopped censorship, he merely took control of it.

Unfortunately advertising doesn’t work on the majority of their users who are bots. 🤷
When a company takes on shareholders, whatever goals, mission, or ethos they had is erased. They now exist as a vehicle to make as much money as possible at literally any cost. That’s it. Was nice while it lasted.
Have they tried not using it? 🤦
I agree, it’s far more convenient than skimming over several sites, but I still like seeing what websites it was referencing so I can evaluate how much I trust them myself.
Kagi’s FastGPT. It’s handy for quick answers to questions I’d normally punch in a search engine with the same ability to vet the sources.
I’ve used an LLM that provides references for most things it says, and it really ruined a lot of the magic when I saw the answer was basically copied verbatim from those sources with a little rewording to mash it together. I can’t imagine trusting an LLM that doesn’t do this now.
The big record labels are shareholders in Spotify so they’re happy to get less money in streaming royalties because that’s the part they have to share with artists, but the value of their shares they get to keep all for themselves.

I bet the AI was tuned to select ads that maximize both profit and engagement for Meta over maximizing either profit or engagement for the advertiser. Totally working “as intended”.
You mean the corporation you gave boatloads of personal data to is manipulating it to use against you in the pursuit of profit?! [surprised pikachu.jpg]
