  • I swear, it's not long ago that people were touting that we could finally have decent microtransactions in games thanks to blockchain

    Sorry that this is really what caught my attention, but when did anyone ever think this?

  • Ah. There are two types of these. The national ones that put up a few hundred "local" listings for the same job, skim off the top, and hope to make a cut. Then there are actual local ones that build relationships with companies with businesses in the area and actually find proper talent instead of playing a numbers game. The way they make money is the same, but the former is definitely much less of a sure thing.

  • This is partially the case... the large eyes, round head, and flat face resemble that of a human infant. That is what triggers the instinct.

    It's the same reason Grogu (Baby Yoda) became so popular. Exact same archetype, triggering the exact same instincts.

  • It's pretty well-known (as he admitted on SNL in 2021) that Elon Musk has Asperger's Syndrome. This is evident in his inability to understand social cues and appropriate communication, his hardwired complete lack of empathy, and his strange and overpowering obsession with the letter X. He probably thinks he's being edgy or hilarious without understanding that there are social consequences for those things that he does not have the ability to comprehend in the moment. Even scarier, actually, if you look into the history of the man the condition was named for (Hans Asperger) and some of the things he was into... you know, like generic purity and being a Nazi.

  • That's a cascade. Capitalism represents an aesthetic and intellectual approach that values reason, order, and balance, drawing inspiration from the enduring legacy of ancient Greece and Rome.
