Gotta pump the hype for the IPO scam. Generational bagholders are being created at this very moment.

It's because the massess are cattle themselves.

'The Century of the Self' really drives this point.

Then corporate social media took things to the next level.


Our grandparents were right, and right to say this.

I think parent poster is implying that the language is directed at or about Kushner's Jewish ethnicity.

Which I don't think is the intent of anybody in this thread. We're just talking about them being privileged and rich.

I do think it's important to avoid accidental or deliberate anti-Semitism when talking here though. Epstein and Kushner being Jewish has zero to do with their vileness, but for a segment of the population it's all too easy to unconsciously (or worse, consciously) make a linkage between old vile anti-Semitic conspiracy theories about Rothschilds or whatever.


It's rather odd that you good-boy with all the many points (we know you like your "karma") immediately jump to associating jews with evil and vile people like Kushner and his type.

There are many jews who are opposed to vile creatures like him and his ilk. Yet here we are with you immediately associating evil, vile people with jews even though no one but you mentioned jews.

Seriously, what makes you do that? He is surrounded by many non jews, he is trying to manipulate many non-jewish corrupt and rotten organized criminals, aka the Albanian government, he is associated with the most vile Sykes-Picot finger puppets ... and you immediately think "he's talking about the jews"???

Seriously, have you allocated some intellectual resources to working through that neurosis?


> But there's a good chunk of the class who don't listen to reason. I haven't figured it out yet. They know, logically, they can't pass an interview, but that's apparently a "tomorrow" problem.

These people should be doing manual work, not intellectual work. There is no shortage of manual work available.


Public companies only bring ruin.

> "Most people default to automating tasks they dislike rather than tasks most valuable to the company," Sophia Velastegui, CEO of Velastegui Ventures and former chief AI officer at Microsoft, told Axios. Instead, they should focus on using AI to drive revenue.

That's right! Work, slave, pain away every day! How dare you make your life a bit less miserable?!


You lived all your life without these evil companies. Life will go on when they are banished. I don't think you will miss "unusually high quality predictions" after a week.


The medium is the message. AI text is a bad message for me.


Cattle can't choose how to be slaughtered, though.


Block the AI overviews with extensions like https://chromewebstore.google.com/detail/hide-google-ai-over... or use a userscript to do the same.


Alternatively, just change your browser's default search shortcut, and add &udm=14 to the end of the normal google search. It changes the default search results to "web" rather than "All", which removes all the extraneous crap they've added over the years.

Compare https://www.google.com/search?q=test to https://www.google.com/search?q=test&udm=14


The wild thing is how much faster it is to load. I'd almost forgotten how fast Google's default search used to be. Thank you!


Both just give me a recaptcha. Start page doesn't:

https://www.startpage.com/sp/search?q=test


Which search engines does it use? I couldn't find info, and I'm just curious.


Can't find full list either, but it at least includes Bing and Google: https://support.startpage.com/hc/en-us/articles/452243553384...


How do they send the query on your behalf privately, without incurring insane search api costs?


Or even better: stop using Google.

Use Kagi instead.


Wow, great tip! Thank you!


You can block the entire AI response, but not the paid-for product placement in the response separately.


Block the entire AI response. It's not a good thing. It tells you whatever google wants you to see. It's an incredibly powerful brainwashing tool.


The search results without AI also tell you whatever Google wants you to see. The immediate solution is not to block AI summaries, it's to stop using Google entirely.


Not to mention the entire well is "poisoned" now. You can avoid LLM points of entry. You can't go to a random source and expect to avoid generative output.


There is a way to see old results, by adding "before:2023" to the search query.


Great, as long as you don't mind the nexus of all human communication to be frozen in time three years ago.


For many queries it does not matter.


These days, the AI response is often a lot better than the actual search results. Search result quality has dropped drastically the last decade. Sometimes it feels even Altavista had better results than today's Google.


The blog post says ‘These formats will also continue to be clearly labeled as “Sponsored.”’. We will probably be able to block them about as well as we can block sponsored search results.


Could also just block the element in ublock?
