Fair point

What knowing someone rich in an untraceable currency does to a greedy ass criminal .

If you are rich, or at least well-off, SHUT UP. Conventional currencies already cause this, imagine untraceable currencies like crypto is.

There is no engagement mechanism like rage

Could you elaborate? I don’t understand

Call me crazy, but I think there is a bit of difference between the average worker, and CEOs, investors and execs, in terms of hability to sway the company one way or another.

Trump is the peak example that they can, in fact, just change policy on a dime, laws and constitution be dammed.

Except politics, actually, can change the service. For example, surrendering data in secret. Or installing backdoors.

Not that I think Proton is gonna do that (or at least hope so), but thinking “why would I care about politics, they don’t affect the app on a technical level” is incredibly naive and potentially incorrect.

With an over-the-top example, it’s kinda like saying “why should I care about the politics of my landlord after they support the “Increase Tenant’s Rent” party, it doesn’t change the service”

“Goverment bad durr durr”

Another crap meme made with AI, yay, I love AI slop

Yep, I didn’t remember well so I didn’t know for certain.

Yeah, I realized it suffers from (inverse) survivorship bias, only pointing out the ones that didn’t survive.

Didn’t one company claim something like “the internet is a fad” or “touchscreen phones are a fad” and went bankrupt/became irrelevant because they didn’t adapt?

I’m not from the US and didn’t plan to visit anytime soon anymore so I don’t mind, just reminding others.

I had this happen to me (except I don’t study web dev, I was just making a CV web)

I think AI will definitively have an impact in how shit is done, but propably not the way AI bros think. It might not revolutionize the world, but become and standard.

I don’t know enough about AI or about the entire IT world so I cannot 100% affirm or deny anything, though.

Yeah, AI is going to put some people out of work, but in turn will open lots of more specialized positions. And these positions that are lost could adapt to AI (for example, being part of the training instead of just being let go).

I hope you aren’t from the US because that’s surely gonna put you on a NSA list

How is the blockchain gonna solve that then? If anything it will make it more difficult since even more people don’t know how blockchains work than people who don’t know how regular web works.

Your response read as “No, they wouldn’t need funding” lmao

That’s delusional as fuck

…and what is gonna keep it up if it goes to the blockchain? Air? Do you think they won’t need funding on the blockchain? Lol
