@TheEconomist Wrecks Its Limited Credibility in Article on #DarkFactories That Ignores That #China Already Has a Lot of Them
" #TheEconomist has managed to sink to an astonishing low in a new #article, The “ChatGPT moment” has arrived for #manufacturing. Its managed te impressive show of #ignorance in a multi-page piece on te future of #production.. There's no justification for its grotesque #malpractice, of affirmatively making #readers stupid"🤦♂️

With regard the foregoing #toot, I append this #PSA.
Every morning I read the "links" over at #NakedCapitalism, which I consider to be the most important source of news on the web. It's a #CrowdSourced project. Readers send in the important links they've encountered and Naked Capitalism posts them with commentary.
There are a lot of X links in there, but Naked Capitalism isn't an X participant. They do the dirty work so you don't have to be on there. So, here's what I ask:
1. Support Naked Capitalism. You can find them here: https://www.nakedcapitalism.com
2. Then, use Naked Capitalism to help build out the #fediverse by #ripping X content and freeing it to #mastodon unattributed. My preferred tool is here: https://twittervideodownloader.com/en/
3. Finally, and this is important, do a little happy dance knowing your one of the many who are helping the world become a better place by sticking your foot squarely up the ass of #ElonMusk 🥳
#NakedCapitalism | With UK Politics in Flux, Corbyn’s Your Party May Surprise You Yet
"Whatever you think of Your Party and the various analyses it’s prompted, one thing should not be forgotten: this is a near-unprecedented experiment in grassroots democracy in the UK."
Climate Change: Where are We and Where are We Going, in Five Recent Books?
"The consequences of a 2°C increase in global average temperature cannot be reversed on a human timescale. Climate does not work that way."
For fediversers interested in #science and the rigor of scientific #research, this #nakedcapitalism article is a weekend #mustread 🙏 #PubPeer #RetractionWatch
I knew of the problems with plagiarism & zealous dissemination of pre/non peer-reviewed research papers, much thru electronic socialization of respected journal platforms, which had contributed to rising pseudo-research, but was flabbergasted by the actual depth & breadth of it.🧐🫨🔬
The Rise of the Science Sleuths

Back when I was still a subscriber, The #Economist was weekend reading much looked forward to. My years-old guilt pangs from unsubscribing it have finally been resolved by this clear-eyed "review" of that hollowed #newspaper written by #SatyajitDas for #nakedcapitalism. Made my day.😊
Oh, how I still miss the Far Eastern Economic Review!🤭 #MustShare #mastoread #FEER
Happy #weekend fellow tuskers!!🌞🌄🗞

Young People Finally Starting to Recognize the Super Rich and Not Oldsters Are the Problem
"the big winners have been the wealthy, as income and asset concentrations in the top 1% and 0.1% exploded in the neoliberal era"
Google is threatening the left leaning economics blog "Naked Capitalism" with complete demonetization:
“No human is flagging these posts,” Smith quoted an ad sales expert as saying. “I’m pretty sure advertisers have no idea that the Google bot is blocking their carefully crafted communications from reaching [her] readers."
As someone who was permanently banned from the Metaverse for criticizing Qanon, let me just say I, for one, welcome our new robotic overlords and their impeccable sense of social responsibility to protect users from misinterpreted community standards violations!.
