I’m actually a programmer. There are ways to compensate us that doesn’t force people to pay rent for our work.

Vote with your wallet. Boycott rent seeking companies that lock away their IP and charge money for access to it.
For example, FOR ADOBE TO DESERVE MY MONEY EVERY MONTH, 100% OF THEIR TECHNOLOGIES SHOULD BE OPEN SOURCE.
The only rent I happily pay for is a good VPN.
It is. The machine learning algorithm has maxed out its parameters because Elon decided to get rid of redundancy. The machine learning algorithm had to invent new algorithms to do what redundancy would have easily done in far fewer lines of code. They are out of compute power BECAUSE they decided to cheap out and removed redundancy.
Thank you, Simon Peyton Jones.
Thanks for setting me straight. I’ll still be pushing the idea of RISC-V.
Look it up. The latest generation of Intel chips have incredibly egregious issues.
If you think you’re owning the Chinese by supporting Intel, you’re very misguided. Instead, you should be hoping for RISC-V to catch on because closed architectures are vastly more vulnerable to exploitation. They represent an unknown tech stack which is a no-no for anyone who actually values freedom, privacy, and liberty. They also cost tens of millions to create while RISC-V costs significantly less since it doesn’t require a company to buy a million dollar license to build on a closed architecture.
Don’t be conflicted. RISC-V or GTFO.
Narrator: It isn’t.
Self driving vehicles are one area I’d like to see that style of standards applied.
You make great points. The problem is, our demagogues work directly for those corporations. So, the demands of corporations will always favor corporations until corporations aren’t considered constituents (which has been true since Citizens United in the US).
Do you honestly think the people running for office are capable of “handling” this any differently?
yes it is.....
