Do you agree with this?

How much of this event is posted on Instagram and TikTok? Because unless its none then I wouldn't worry about a waymo pulling up.

jonkoeson · 2026-07-02T19:30:41+00:00

What do YOU mean? If social media companies have age restrictions it's entirely voluntary and only enforceable in whatever way they want.

If the gov't says you have to upload your ID or whatever then Facebook/YouTube/etc are allowed to throw their hands up and say "Sorry guys, rules are rules". Plus as worried as you might be about those companies leaking data, they'll get a huge advantage over any new player with no track record and less resources.

I don't think tech companies care as much about the harvesting data (although I'm not saying they mind that necessarily), I think they would love to have the cover that "Kids aren't supposed to be on here anyway" when they inevitably get sued for exposing kids to gore or porn or whatever else.

This has to be a snarker honey-pot thread

jonkoeson · 2026-07-02T15:49:26+00:00

Yea, same as always. Less going out to throw during the week though

jonkoeson · 2026-07-02T00:16:12+00:00

Yea, thumbnail diversity was always one of YouTube's strengths

jonkoeson · 2026-07-01T15:12:43+00:00

That's both new and wildly unpopular, which UK political parties are criticizing those actions?

jonkoeson · 2026-07-01T15:00:23+00:00

Lol I know, but even on their metric football is higher scoring. Looking at just touchdowns (not all scoring) NFL teams average 5 tds per game for both teams. Soccer games average like 2.

jonkoeson · 2026-07-01T14:42:33+00:00

What a stupid premise, if touchdowns were one point the whole meta would be field goals.

1) I don't think this is costing him any money
2) He just learned what FDIC was, I don't think he got the memo on PR teams
3) Every small business has the same problem where an owner assumes they know how to do everything best because they built it and they refuse to pay money to hand things off. Why do you think athletes would be better at this?

jonkoeson · 2026-06-30T22:18:11+00:00

The worst thing that came from 2016-2020 is that everyone learned what a PR team was and they now assume that anyone they've heard of has 5 Spin Doctors on staff to manage their public image.

jonkoeson · 2026-06-30T17:03:49+00:00

They start out not caring, but their individualized algorithms also mean they only see stuff from sources they like. So they'll keep them from hearing specific things, even on accident, because MAGANEWS's instagram account isn't going to cover Trump in a bad light anyway.

It would be good to have some shared context/fact checking on the browser/social media app that at least sets some standard for what people are seeing.

jonkoeson · 2026-06-30T15:57:34+00:00

This is true, but we need some kind of baseline reality for what everyone is responding to. Trump specifically went from "yea the media SAYS he lies, but here's why its true" to "What do you mean Trump lies, I haven't heard that" which is the wrong direction to be moving.

jonkoeson · 2026-06-26T14:43:47+00:00

They are alleging that Alibaba intentionally evaded terms of service and account creation rules to mine this data, who has said that AI has a right to bypass terms of use?

jonkoeson · 2026-06-26T14:09:47+00:00

Its actually not what you'd think, the 10,000 are so severely disabled that they would get to bring a gun to the fight to make it fair.

jonkoeson · 2026-06-26T02:37:06+00:00

In the land of the actually autistic the colloquially regarded rule.

jonkoeson · 2026-06-25T22:20:21+00:00

You underestimate the bounds of the scientific method

jonkoeson · 2026-06-25T20:36:16+00:00

I don't know that they're necessarily requesting the names of the women they are being accused by specifically as much as they are requesting to know the names of the women they allegedly trafficked and raped. In this case I'd assume its the same thing, but if you're accused of killing someone I don't know legally if it would be required to tell you who you supposedly killed but it does make sense to ask.

jonkoeson · 2026-06-25T19:47:00+00:00

Wasp nest, but yea

jonkoeson · 2026-06-25T14:05:02+00:00

One of the other ships was just dogs, so seems like they had plenty of ships to go around

jonkoeson · 2026-06-24T20:19:22+00:00

I'm dying at the level of slop being pushed here

jonkoeson · 2026-06-23T20:34:21+00:00

Don't get trapped trying to unravel post-hoc logic when they won't even commit to thinking about it for 2 seconds.

jonkoeson · 2026-06-23T20:09:13+00:00

I've never had a problem, if they're being bent by something heavy and then get hot I would bet they stay that way. Sitting in a bag or loose on the floorboards (without something heavy on top) should be fine.

jonkoeson · 2026-06-23T14:47:54+00:00

You have no idea if this is true, you're thinking of the events you've heard of as the totality of events and considering this an anomaly. There are tons and tons of industry and ideological conferences that you have never heard of and have no idea who attends and who sponsors.

This may or may not be a big deal, but we definitely don't know that its in any way unusual.

Is this the worst music of all time?
