News@lemmy.world•Billie Eilish drags billionaires in speech with Mark Zuckerberg in the room
49·15 days agoZuckerberg is the fifth-richest person in the world with an estimated net worth of $228.3 billion, according to Forbes. In 2015, Zuckerberg and Chan pledged to give away 99 percent of their shares in Meta (Facebook at the time) to philanthropy over their lifetimes. To date, they’ve given away more than $7 billion.”
So in 10 years they’ve given away 3% of his net worth? Fucking slackers.

News@lemmy.world•Former NFL player Doug Martin died after struggling with officers while being detained, police say
1·24 days agoAdam Conover and many others have also talked about it. It truly breaks my heart to think of these young men who want to prove themselves physically being destroyed because of that dream. Thanks for the summary; this is exactly what I was getting at.
It’s actually the story of Chris Benoit specifically that gets me. And he probably knew better than some what he was getting into, from what I’ve read. His poor wife and child, and him too. It must have been awful to go through that first hand, and who can say what his state of mind was exactly at the end. He was one of the biggest stars they had, but they treated him like garbage: driving himself to venues, no health insurance, and still feeling he had to prove himself.
I hope that with people talking about the deadly impacts of these sports more openly, there will be real drive to change these standards for the betterment of the next generations.

When it comes to football players, it seems most likely this is TBI (concussion) related? It breaks my heart that we encourage sports whose participation will also be the most likely cause of death. Football, wrestling; cultures where the players are deified if they make it, but there’s a long road of kids with dreams who’ve paid the ultimate price to get there.

News@lemmy.world•The AI bubble is 17 times the size of the dot-com frenzy — and four times the subprime bubble, analyst says
4·1 month agoYeah the one thign ai consistrntly does well is return more targeted search results than a browser.
WAAAAY back in the day, search engines functioned like a complicated Yellow Pages with indexed results and explorable categories. They encouraged you to find unique websites and seek out new perspectives and ideas. It wasn’t sustainable due to the volume of websites people make, but it was fun.
Search engines have been hot garbage for a while. If AI can at least shake that up, it would at least provide some competition and reason for these companues to try and innovate something.
