Are you trolling or have you really never heard of shopify? Prolly every ecommerce website you’ve ever visited was built by either wix, big commerce or shopify with shopify (iirc) holding the largest market share of the 3. That may have changed since I last looked at adding e-commerce builders to my investment portfolio but theyre definitely top 3.
Id tell them I can get AI to do anything they want. They’re the ones who will be paying for me to spend not hours but days tweaking prompts to get whatever shit they want done that could’ve been done faster cheaper and better with appropriate resources so fuck it I’m in.
Why does this change anything if it’s an unreleased policy? Doesn’t that imply they dont use the collected data to train ai if their current policy doesn’t include this? I’m not defending anything I’m just wondering why everyone here is ready to take a screen shot of an “unreleased” document as valid proof a company is doing devious shit instead of the possibility it might be that they went a different direction. I mean I know it’s owned by Google so this is prolly not a good scenario to argue but I’m just saying this seems like such a seedy source for every comment in her to be like yeah fuck them.
Edit: lol I 100% admit this sounds like a total shill comment so obligatory fuck Google to assure anyone I’m not defending Google or waymo just wondering why everyone seems to accept this source.
This. This is why I internet. 10/10 content op bravo.
Not OP but I’ll leave this comment on their behalf, why does that change what OP was asking? They didn’t ask if one cause the other just if one thing could lead to another. Wouldn’t one symptom like a market crash happening first, then be followed by the other symptom being the ww3 still qualify under OP’s question? Regardless if they share the same cause. Or am I looking at it wrong?
To elaborate on my rake of the question: The genocide of jews by Germany caused ww2. A symptom was the active engagement in the pacific, aka pearl harbor, which had the symptom of the US joining the war in full force.
The tariffs in the eyes of the markets is no different than the grand opening of rhe covid pandemic. Tons of uncertainties, tons of money moving around, all causing markets to crash or semi-crash like they are now.
*Quick side bar of my own oppinion, I don’t think they’ve dropped enough to meet the criteria to be considered a crash but I could be wrong. I’ll google it and edit accordingly if im wrong tho. Personally I know the tariffs are idiotic but anyone calling doomsday or market crash over a 3 month drop accross the board shouldnt be wasting money investing their own money and should leave it up to professionals.
Regardless of which idiot is at the reigns, what catastrophe is happening, if you looking at your investments every three months, you are not investing you are gambling. The entire financial institution as an industry is going to make fuck you money off this dip. It’s literally why it’s dipping, it’s call mitigating losses by rolling your investments according to their capital gains tax priority. Every financial firm right now is selling on Monday and buying the same fucking stock back at a cheaper price and at a higher volume. They’ll continue losing money but at a lesser rate of loss with higher intrinsic value because they’re bulking their portfolio at the same time.
I barely know dick about investing but I know enough to say market movement does not need an economic movement to follow. We can have sorting inflation, rising cost of living, annual raise %'s less than the % of inflation and at the same time the markets could be soring. It’s literally been happening to the nasdaq big tech industry which is large enough to prop the markets thru whatever rhe economy throws at it.
The pandemic was a fuckin crash. That shit was fuckin wild. And still i wanna say it was back to hitting ATH’s by the end of Bidens 1st year.
Its because markets not giving a fuck about any country’s economic wellbeing, who is in office, and especially because it sure as shit doesn’t give a fuck about any individual investor are all parts of why I don’t think the current state of the markets will lead to any radical military action from any country.
My tldr of my answer to the og original OP’s question is:
Markets not giving a fuck about any country’s economic wellbeing, who is in office, and especially because it sure as shit doesn’t give a fuck about any individual investor are not opinions they are well documented statements of fact. All the individual investors in the word no longer hold enough market share to influence what the markets do anymore, markets are unaffected by who was elected president and my citation is to ask any financial advisor, and we just saw that the economy can go to the shitter but markets didn’t move till the variable of tariffs were introduced.
A global scale war can only happen when there are enough solder committed to the fight. That’s just my opinion. You can implement as many drafts as you want but until the solders have reason for themselves to fight you’ll only end up with shit like Vietnam, Iraq, and Ukraine. All wars but all without any drive for the soldiers to fight for. It’s because of my first point that I don’t think what the markets do will affect people’s mind set enough to charge the beaches of Normandy.
The nail in the coffin for the market dropping causing war is the fact that the quality of everyday life hasn’t gotten so bad that they would be willing to risk their life yet. Sounds morbid to say but now that we’ve seen the markets have detached from its dependency of economic growth or needing joeshmoe to invest in shit to keep the markets up I feel confident in my opinion.
Plus, who in the flying fuckwants to fight in a war when they can juat fight anonymously on the internet?loljkjk
Edit: stupid fucking ai autocorrect apparently likes to correct the proper spelling of soldiers to solder🙄 Fuck it I’m leaving it lol
Pretty sure if you try and spell out the letters n, i, g, g,… and submit your comment or reply, it’s hardcoded on all platforms to remove the word. I’ve tried tellijg a story on the sync app for lemmy that involved a word that rhymes with maggot being said and even in quotes it only printed on the screen “removed” iirc. Context here implying it was the word someone said and not being used in the context of the comment. Not that it matters in a public forum but I point this out because the list we’re looking at is subreddit specific list of banned words that will trigger a bot to remove the automatically comment/delete the comment but still show a comment was made.
With that being said I have no fuckin clue what im looking at for the rest of the drama. In the image. It’s 4 boxes that could be read L to R from the top or it could be columns where top L is 1 bottom L is 2 top R is 3…
I think they didn’t like triggering their automated moderating system because what they felt was legitimate content. Little absurd to expect a reply from a real person mod in a span of a couple minutes tho.
Subsequent question, why can’t you sell pr store beer in plastic? I’ve never realized till this post that every beer I’ve ever seen is in a glass bottle, metal can or metal keg. Never in plastic.
From merriam websters: adjective trans·for·ma·tive causing or able to cause an important and lasting change in someone or something
Lol make it full screen to really appreciate the black spot on venus that looks way too much like a smudge on your screen to not do the finger check🤣
This is the best title I’ve seen for this whole direwolf news break. Everyone else has a title like “Scientists Jurrasic Parked the Direwolf!” Or “Scientists bring direwolf to life after being extict for 10,000 years!” … read article … me:so they have a grey wolf species that looks and acts like what they theorize the direwolf looked like and acted like.
Ima resurrect the extinct use of obnoxiously saying “hashtag” before everything and say “hashtag, keepclickbaitoutofsciencearticles”
