<p><span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://hachyderm.io/@fasterthanlime" class="u-url mention">@<span>fasterthanlime</span></a></span> i think that's the part i disagree with the most: i haven't seen much evidence towards executives being *not* stupid in long term. quite the opposite, in fact. layoffs alone would be enough to demonstrate that!</p>

I'm perfectly fine with labor being disrupted, insofar as that doesn't disrupt labor *rights*. It's a question of whose financial interests are being served by automation, whether the proceeds go to the employer/owners or to individual workers.</p><p>(That all also assumes that said overgrown markov chains *work*, which is a whole other kettle of tea.)</p>
<p><span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://hachyderm.io/@fasterthanlime" class="u-url mention">@<span>fasterthanlime</span></a></span> it's not wrong though.</p>
<p><span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://hachyderm.io/@fasterthanlime" class="u-url mention">@<span>fasterthanlime</span></a></span> being replaced with an overgrown markov chain by a business idiot sure does threaten one's food and shelter, though</p>
<p>There is a $400 Wes Anderson @thecriterioncollection collection box set that comes out in September that I have unfortunately been made aware of. Really need someone to buy this for me for my birthday in September. Also, thanks a lot Stephen! <a href="https://www.criterion.com/boxsets/8208-the-wes-anderson-archive-ten-films-twenty-five-years" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no"><span class="invisible">https://www.</span><span class="ellipsis">criterion.com/boxsets/8208-the</span><span class="invisible">-wes-anderson-archive-ten-films-twenty-five-years</span></a></p>
<p><span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://hachyderm.io/@recursive" class="u-url mention">@<span>recursive</span></a></span> this is true, but I'd say that them being so sheltered is an important social property that gets deeply embedded in their work</p><p>(as a trivial example, it often exhibits Falsehoods Programmers Believe About X flaws)</p>
