I think it’s much simpler honestly: fires like these have been happening every year in California for the past hmm… at least 5 years, maybe more. Insurances are simply catching on and doing what any for-profit company would do in this situation, avoid losing money.
She might have picked a side, but I can’t be 100% sure of which one just from the lyrics. In fact, if anything, it seems she hasn’t picked a side: she sides with one on some issues (e.g. Israel) and with the other on other issues (e.g. cancel culture).
As a result, she’s probably angering both sides, which maybe was the whole point, who knows.
Alright, I know nothing about this person or the song, but I went to read the article to see where it says she is an “anti-vaxxer” and a “musk fan”, as well as “against Israel’s genocide”:
In the song, May rails against “big pharma,” a “man-made virus,” “cancel culture,” and a war that she brands “genocide.”
This is the only passage I could find that remotely hints about her stance about those things and I see the controversial “man-made virus” line, but that just means she believes the virus was man-made, e.g. it came from Wuhan’s lab, which is a hypothesis that was seriously considered, though still found less likely than the zoonotic one.
Nothing there says she’s against vaccines. It does say she’s against Israel’s genocide though, assuming that’s the war being referred here (lyrics seem to confirm that).
Searching for “vax” or “vaccine” in the entire article yields nothing.
Searching for “musk” yields this verse in the lyrics:
Mr. Musk, he said some s***, the lefts are angry
Which… doesn’t seem to imply she’s a fan either (she might be, mind you, but one can’t conclude that from this article).
So, when reading an article, let’s not extrapolate beyond what’s reasonable.
That people who bought it can hopefully continue using it after the money runs out.
The recalled oysters originated from British Columbia, Canada,
From the article:
It’s unclear whether that will change under Robert F. Kennedy Jr., President-elect Donald Trump’s nominee to run the US Department of Health and Human Services. Kennedy has called for getting rid of dyes and other ingredients linked to cancer that can be found in food and has said the US needs tougher regulators that aren’t as close to the industries they police.
I guess even a broken clock is right twice a day … hopefully he makes that happens.
I’m pretty sure it’s impossible to transmit bits “instantly” i.e. faster than light under the current quantum theory or relativity theory, you can’t transmit information faster than the speed of light. If somebody found a way to do that, we’d be rewriting the laws of physics, and that would be a big deal for sure.
The second one, of course:
the new research proposes that the breakthrough could make these communications super secure and nearly instantaneous – limited only by the speed of light.
(enphasis mine)
So, yeah, we didn’t break any laws of physics.
Yes. I don’t like being forced to be happy even if I’m not.
There is a difference between computer programmer and software engineers.
Ah, by the way, Edsger W Dijkstra referred to himself as a programmer. Good times.
after doctors made sure he wasn’t in a life-threatening condition, he was moved to the waiting room, where he sat for six hours before deciding to pack up and go home.
I don’t know why they’re trying to spin it as a difference from the US system.
I had the same exact experience in the US. multiple times. You go to the ER, for whatever reason, they look at you and, unless you’re literally bleeding to death you’re gonna be told to wait many many hours.
So, I guess Canada is the same on this, but at least they won’t send you a huge bill to pay.
Please stop posting this unless we have proof that he wrote it himself, a picture of it, or at the very least some kind of new information that the previous 10 posts on the subject didn’t have.
All these articles eventually trace back to the same one guy that claims to “have the manifesto” source “trust me bro”
They are considering it making it open source, among other options to keep the robots alive
Why not just open-source Moxie?” We hear you. We are not dismissing the idea, but this would be a complex undertaking, tied up in legal, technical, and contractual knots. With limited resources, transitioning to open-source is no simple step. However, given your passionate input, we are exploring every avenue—from potential acquisitions and philanthropic support to community-driven models—that could allow Moxie’s mission to live on.

This is sad. I know personally many people that worked there and they’re some of the best engineers. Never cared for an AI robot for kids myself, but it seemed to work well…
The group was private and they created fake profiles … did I miss something?
Yes! I use Kiwi daily, as well as Firefox. Some things work better in one, some the other. It’s a shame it seems to be abandoned (no updates since April).
Exactly this: highly paid engineers are usually PHDs or otherwise researchers focusing on difficult problems. Their output can’t be measures in lines of code commits on github. Nevermind time spent mentoring younger engineers, reviewing pull requests, advising management, etc. Ask me how I know.
That said … at my previous job for a while near the end they were paying me to do very little indeed. I was not happy. Eventually the company ran into trouble, laid a bunch of people off (including me) and now I’m a lot busier at my new job… also happier.
He definitely said that. He said a lot of other things too, often contradicting. He says and does whatever helps him stay (or get back) in power, his words cannot be trusted.
That said, I hope you’re right.
Yeah I said at least 5 years, cause I haven’t been here forever, and also it seems they’re getting worse in the last few years, though maybe that’s just my biased perception.
