Yes. Thank you for expanding my point.
I’m a climate scientist by trade. Interested in interesting things. Ecology, complexity, politics, social change, music.


Yes. Thank you for expanding my point.


No, the point is just that. “Anti-immigation” is being used here as a euphemism for “racist”


Neither of those things are related to immigration


Anti-immigration protesters clash with First Nations people
That’s either some exetremely ignorant anti-protestors, or some shitty journalism. I suspect the latter.


This seems like UK news, not works news


Other countries selling off US bonds before maturity is like Elon selling off Tesla? How? That doesn’t make sense to me.


OK, that makes sense. Thanks for the long explainer.
I think the AI bubble does feel a lot like the GFC. My understanding is that the amount of leveraging is much higher than pre-gfc, too. And I’m utterly unconvinced that genAI has much real underlying value across most industries (other than some niches like copywriting, and some simple coding tasks)


I don’t think that needs to happen, if you get into a hyperinflation situation, right? And Trump and co have been doing a lot to destroy the underlying productivity of the us economy over the last year.


What conditions would be needed to make it likely?


Do you assume that a collapse of the US economy is impossible?


I was expecting the AI bubble to burst and then take down the US economy, but perhaps it’s going to be the other way around…


Eh, what’s bad for capitalists is what’s good for the rest of us


What is reddit speak?


Idk, it probably has an open backdoor somewhere


Yeah, best politics of any centralised social media by a long shot.


Those are all great books/stories. But they are all off the mark for the AI bubble.
The book you wanna read is John Steinbeck’s The Grapes Of Wrath.


It’s true! It’s a relatively minor complaint really. Let me pivot: fuck social norms around early starts 😅
Even ignoring the inequality aspect, shore line highways are the best way to fuck up a city. Worst urban planning idea ever conceived of.
