It's not campaign costs that are the issue. You're working full time on a campaign, you really have to quit or take six weeks off with your boss being ok with you never coming back.

Many people work jobs where this would be seen as a great thing for the firm, many do not

So how do you stand for election with no income for months on end?

Sounds like the same argument against banning smoking in pubs, which is probably the single greatest health intervention in the last fifty years and now supported by basically everyone.

As you've probably realised from the replies, there's a reason all the urbanists talk about the Netherlands.

Though, any other European country would be an improvement to most of America outside NY. You can actually walk to places

The Facebook code that outputs to fediverse using activity pub can put any posts it likes into that feed, because it's not mastodon it's custom and can absolutely inject ads.

Can you still use green light as a news metaphor when you're writing about cars?

If this is the problem spending a lot of effort to also serve ads along with the real video seems like it'd increase costs.

What you're talking about is a real problem for Google but it's not the only cause of the new behaviour since Neal took over

I find it extremely difficult to believe two events over 70 years apart that I know are very different in many ways could ultimately have the same underlying cause.

And as you haven't actually made a point, just asserted they do, there's no reason to believe they do. LLM or not

Summarising is one specific use of llms that doesn't actually work.

Biters want one thing and it's disgusting

I didn't see it earlier but I'd have assumed this was saying the police should be chasing Rotherham child abusers not wasting time on riots.
