Switching my mind back into freak mode

Who out there working for a mid to large size organization is actually making productive use of AI to the point that it's leading to serious questions on downsizing? I'm deeply skeptical this is happening at all let alone at any scale

It feels like I'm losing my goddam mind reading the reactionary takes on the Canada-China rapprochement (if you can even call it that) Carney did a deal to help Canadian farmers and consumers of EVs, that's essentially it There's no comprehensive pivot to China

People really need to log off more often
The speech is not philosophical. It's not an academic work of geopolitical analysis either. IMO that speech is meant to establish Canada as the first to be willing to run a New World order. Canada under Carney is more like Edmund, seeing the sick King Lear and positioning himself

More gross output from the bad take factory
That was a truly awful speech in Davos. https://t.co/QrD1MPh4Ep

One early action middle powers should coordinate on is regulating algorithmic media feeds as they are essentially American psy-op warfare
In a speech to the World Economic Forum, Mark Carney says middle powers such as Canada must accept that the rules-based international order is effectively dead, and great power rivalry with is here to stay. Key excerpt:

Reducing tariffs on EVs is setting up shop? The overreaction to a trade deal over EVs for canola and the under indexing on an authoritarian takeover currently transpiring in the US demonstrates how serious some of these commenters are
It is at times like this that we need cooler heads to prevail, and when we need leaders who can focus on the foundational principles of what constitutes our civilization. It defies reason that Canada would invite an Asian communist state to set up shop in North America. 3/9

Incandescent with rage and cynicism over Canada allowing a small amount of state of the art Chinese EVs for consumers as I post relentlessly from my 4th iPhone made in Shenzhen

Getting access to low-cost and technologically advanced Chinese EVs is actually also a win for Canada and Canadians not a loss.

Prolonged exposure to the Internet makes villains of so many of us
Respectfully, perhaps you need to pay more attention at what I have been saying for yonks: Yes, NATO expansion, the 2014 CIA coup in Kyiv and the subsequent ban of Russian in the Donbas (a form of ethnic cleansing) were serious provocations - and, indeed, violations of

Some people wake up in the morning with the goal of being a person that people point and laugh at 50 years from now for being so backward "Can you believe people used to think like this?"
Imagine that you have finally bought a little house in a quiet, single-family neighbourhood. Then the government lets a developer build a towering fourplex next door to house population growth from mass immigration.

While we're at it can we also take a breath about the PM's statement about the events in what is quite clearly an unfolding and sensitive situation?

The latest Twitter climate brouhaha reveals that people can see it in simple vs. complex terms Simply speaking addressing climate change requires a dramatic reduction in FF consumption and our solutions must work back from that Unfortunately it's much more complicated

The real mistake was posting this thread
Today, I made the mistake of flying from Dublin to Paris via London's Heathrow Airport. This was a remarkably stupid move on my part, given that London, and by extension Heathrow, is located in the failing formerly-developed country known as "the UK". I almost paid dearly for

If you read the ruling you'd know that the court assessed the body of evidence that bike lanes reduce overall harm to residents of a city which elected governments are bound to protect.
This is just nuts. A Charter protected right to bike lanes? If judges like this think the Charter empowers them to regulate road traffic, why even bother with the pretence of elected, responsible government? If someone had suggested during the partition debates of 1980-82 that

I'm honestly so tired of zoom meetings and "You're on mute" "can everyone hear me?" I almost recoil now in physical repulsion when someone is not on mute and speaks unknowingly on a conference call
