Bet there is a metric in Google for clicks on the 1st tab which they replaced with AI Mode. So people (me) muscle memory on what they think is All and get AI slop, gag, and click to the right for All. But it counts as a click and look everyone people love AI they keep clicking it! 🤢 #numberGoUp
Bullshit asymmetry principle - the challenge of debunking falsehoods in the internet age:
"The amount of energy needed to refute bullshit is an order of magnitude bigger than to produce it" - attributed to programmer Alberto Brandolini in 2013
Interesting idea I just read in Zeke Faux's "Number go up", on #crypto #numbergoup
"Chinese criminal syndicates have moved in [to Myanmar near the Thai border], making deals with rival factions to turn rainforests into high-rise settlements dedicated to online fraud."
Crypto fraud especially thrives there. Recommended explainer (book): *Number Go Up* by Z. Faux.

@futurefonts Oh this is neat. Just seen the proportional to monospaced axis.

Je commence à lire #NumberGoUp de Zeke Faux.
Les deux premières phrases :
« “I'm not going to lie,” Sam Bankman-Fried told me.
This was a lie. »
Je sens que ça va être fun 😁.

Is the above CC in any way? If so we might use it on the (#)fediFlyer we produce.
Our next FediFlyer will likely be Pleroma/Epicyon-focused.
Mastodon appears to be adopting darkPatterns and #numberGoUp-style #antiFeatures.
Nice. Stealing this.
