This is 100% accurate. Nobodys goal is to solve problemys or to even make things that acctualy works. It’s what if it kind of sort of work almost enought but we put as many abusing shit as we can get away with… Which is apparently all of them.

Not with that mindset.

Impotence is an illusion that helps keep us in our lanes.

Richest nation in the world.

If the mother nature removes him from the office it would be a clear sign to the world that the only thing that can stop dictator in the USA is time. And that the next one will happen soon.

USA - the country that have “except” in thier “no slavery” rule. I’m not even joking. Thats 100% true.

What sad fuck, would post “let’s take this example of rare long-lasting, happy [celebrity] marriage, and find a shallow reason to dump on it”?

I don’t know what the age gap is in her office, but my personal experience is that the top “basic computer skills as a default” peaked before her generation. Except for plugging in the projector. No one knows how to do it.

And there is a good evidence that everybody tend to do it. Except of us, obviously.

Is it possible that you try to convince yourself that you are not in any tribe just becouse you picked yours by being contraitan to two tribes that you haslty drew with crude labels?

WE picked our position match our convictions! THEY picked the convictions to match their position. And we know which is which becouse we know which one is ME.

Polluter.

I’m going to push back on this. The experiments that had scientific rigor shown that broad ads were only marginally less effective then personalized ones while being way cheeper.

A lot of what you see may be attributing conversion to sales that would happen anyway. Classic examples would be do you use branded search keyowords? Off course you do, despite the body of evidence that it only cannibalize the organic search.

But there are other much more complex mehanics in play. Each sestem takes away more and more control to replace it with “autootymization”, so you truly have no idea to whom and when your ads is shown. Exact keywords are broader then broad “back in a day”. Who knows how google is mixing your ad components, an now AI will dynamically change the ad content and placement using unknown criteria. All this to obscure that what we do is advertisal (?) equivalent showing a pizza ad to people who finished giving their order to the waiter.

Measurable online was here to save us from ineffective offline. Big data was here to save us from innefectove CPC. Algorithms were here to save us from paralism of to much data and now AI is here to save us from all this producing mostly a negative ROI anyway.

I honestly belive we were in the middle of a massive online advertising bubble, that we manage to cover up with even bigger AI bubble.

We are fucked.

I know. He’s one of my most recent discoveries but he has a nack to put the frustration I can’t articulate into angry words that give me comfort that I’m not thr only one who’s going mad about all of this.

You need to be able to tell that something is wrong with this headline without anyone explaining it to you.

Ed?

People are not being shamed ebought for still being on twitter.

Stalin was with the allies,

Betraying other allies. It is iconic. It should be infamous.

you can’t overlook the fact that he was an ally Agree. But it’s not a reason to be proud. It’s a cause of shame.

Think about it this way. If the allience was with hittler to defeat Stalin would you be upvoting it? Becouse there is no fucking difference.

You basicly described Uno. Which is jailed Macau.

… I… I don’t… That way you asked the questuons it seems that the answer you are expecting is that, “ok, he did nothing like that”…

… which is shocking to me. You honestly think this was a curveball question? He’s crimes are so well documented.

He litteraly did all of that, minus the gas Chambers. Not from lack of trying Simply not tech savy enougt. But sometimes they had to line up people in a row to kill them with one bullet for time and cost efficiency. Up to 300,000 poles died from cold and starvation when they were deported by million in trains designed to transport cattle. I feel like this is something that should resonate with you becouse thats how he killed 40% of Crimea Tatars. Basic google search would reveal all you asked and more, running people by trains to mass murder them and put in mass graves, running them to force work camps where they were forced to work to their death (please don’t tel me that this is the first time you heard about “gulags”). Mass rapes, mass violatioss, mutilations and castrations of prisoners. You get that all. Nazi soldiers fighted to their death just for a chance to surrender to Americans not to soviets. Even before the war NKVD killed 111,000 poles living in Russia. And that just Poles. If you add other nations. Even if you count just Russians… You must be familiar with Great Terror, right?

Did you google the katyń massacre like i begged you to do?

I’m litteraly shocked by your question. You are quilts litteraly playing a devils advocate here.

(Sorry for assuming you are American)

Pointing out your ignorance is a great use of sarcasm. It was not just Poland, obviously.

Poland don’t hate everything remotly left wing. I consider leftist. We are not found of comunism, but a socialism find and well. Many thing that you’d consider lefty we consider central, basicly normal or civil right (like universal health care, maternity leave, free higher education, etc). But we are not found of dictatorship, genecides, tyrany and basic fucking monsters who -just an example - deliberetly starved millions.of Ukrainians.

Did you know that the same pilots were not allowed to participate in the victory parade? Most of them never saw home again.

You seems to make an argument that this was either one or another. Putting aside that you ask to split hairs between two most inhuman system in human history. I encourage you to google soviet crimes on occupied Poland during WW2… Did you took a second to do it? Google Katyn Massacre while you at it. Or did you forget that Stalin was hitler’s ally at first and that they attacked Poland together? Or did they still teach you that WW2 started at Pearl Harbor? American exceptionalism didn’t stop you for a moment from assuming that decimation of my nation would be something I know about? And maybe the 1st Wikipedia page wouldnt be something revelatory to me? This is, “I’ll teach this Italian people in Italy how to make REAL expresso” level of 'mericanism.

All this asife, it is simply a false dyhotomy. The better deal could be struct. There were means. There was no will.

There is always a reason to explain terrible things. There is always some pragmatics argument for Yalta, for Hiroshima, for Guantanamo… Sure, you want to be a pragmatic about it… But don’t fucking celebrate it. And apploding Stalin for ending Nazism is like celebrating golum for destroying the one ring. Only more cruel.
