Wow that #Substack CEO interview is a train wreck:

Q: No, I really want you to answer that question. Is that allowed on Substack Notes? “We should not allow brown people in the country.”

A: I’m not going to get into gotcha content moderation.

Q: This is not a gotcha... I’m a brown person. Do you think people on Substack should say I should get kicked out of the country?

A: I’m not going to engage in content moderation, “Would you or won’t you this or that?”

My only Substack Note so far.

TBH, this seems worse than having the road blocked by climate activists for a few minutes.

So for over a week now Elon Musk's circle of friends have been going on and on insisting that Bob Lee's killer was obviously an unhoused individual and blaming the city for not jailing more people.

Now, it turns out that the guy who killed him was another tech exec who knew him, and they were originally in a car together.

Well. This is something else, innit.

Our admission of the massacre is proof that France & Britain should have taken Stalin’s deal to let him occupy all of Poland so he could have more than half of the country to commit crimes against humanity in.

Who can explain why NATO is so popular with our former colonies?

This was *before* Nazi invasion of USSR while we were still allies with the Nazis, coordinating with Gestapo, signing more treaties but also protecting Poles from Nazis by killing them.

Trolls have genuinely claimed to Prez the CIA tricked us into admitting it was us

OTD in 1990 Soviet Union admitted that Soviet Union carried out Katyn massacre. These are Soviet documents with Stalin personally approving the murder of 22,000 Poles.

We blame(d) it on the Nazis. We lie(d).

Imagine us committing attrocities today & blaming it on Nazis...

AI-as-a-weapon is a more urgent problem than AI-as-a-hypothetical-agent. I hope our leaders are not distracted by speculative and irrelevant conversations like the one between Eliezer Yudkowsky and Yann LeCun.

Let's catch up in Paris, 27 April: https://mobilizon.fr/events/ebe86d0c-44f9-4ccb-a7fa-607f96c9600f

Comrades...folks...I wish I was joking. But today I found out that Russian mobilized are LITERALLY being SOLD OFF to Wagner group to be used as cannon fodder in their meat assaults. Because Russian officers want money, Prigozhin wants success. Serfdom 2.0!
