  • he article’s discussion of “Workism” encapsulates some of this, but all the problems it describes were still there many years ago before the “threat of AI”.

    Yes, that is kinda the point of the article, no? All these problems are not new, but the AI situation might boil it over to the point where people quit all together and never look back in mass (as opposed to the occasional burnout that caused this so far).

    I was trying to work out whether he came up with a torque sensor. With no audio, I can only guess. But there were some moments where he has his feet off the pedals and the motor is still cranking. Not sure if that means there is no torque sensor, a demo of a faulty torque sensor, or if he was testing a manual torque-sensor override mode.

    No that was just about issues with a mechanical clutch bearing.





  • Thanks. The selection of texts makes it clear that he has slowly moved from being a serious journalist to a pundit that publishes mostly opinion pieces that cater to conservative and latently racist audience and are likely also attempts at rage baiting left-liberals. Basically an opportunist exploiting the “also show the other side” bias of liberal media like the Spiegel and I would not be overly surprised if his next move is to support the far-right (the AfD is very open to opportunists with migration history or LG(BT), like Alice Weidel).


  • Ist halt ne wirklich dumme Verkürzung der Tatsachen, und wenn man sich so die Mehrheit der Kommentare in deutschsprachigen Onlinezeitungen anschaut dann könnte man auch denken die AfD hat 90% Zustimmung.

    Ich vermute mal der mastodon.world Moderator hatte keine Ahnung wer dieser Typ ist (ich hatte auch noch nie von dem gehöhrt), aber hat dauernd (vermutlich nicht ganz unbegründete) Beschwerden wegen Islamophobie bekommen.

    Edit: ups, sorry, I mistook this for a German speaking com.

    It’s just a really stupid oversimplification of the facts, and if you look at the majority of the comments in German-language online newspapers, you might even think the AfD has a 90% approval rating.

    I’m guessing the mastodon.world moderator had no idea who this guy is (I never heard of him either), but kept receiving complaints (presumably not entirely unfounded) about Islamophobia.
