  In June 2000 a room of shareholders raised their hands and approved the worst deal in corporate history. The price tag was $120,000,000,000. When the deal was announced five months earlier it was worth about $165,000,000,000. Nobody stopped the vote. The currency was melting while they counted the hands, and the vote went through anyway. AOL was the buyer. A dial-up company with 23,000,000 subscribers paying monthly for modem access. Time Warner was the target. Cable systems, film studios, magazines, record labels, actual assets producing actual cash. The internet company bought the media empire with stock. Paper bought property. Steve Case knew what his paper was worth. Gerald Levin took it anyway. Watch the men on the steps afterwards. Nobody is arguing. Nobody in that footage looks like they just lost anything. Two years later the combined company wrote down about $99,000,000,000 in a single year. That number is larger than the annual output of most countries. By 2009 the two halves were separated again, and the pieces were worth a fraction of what they carried in. Every analyst covering the deal called it visionary. The vote took minutes. The unwind took nine years.

  @pennyelizabeths I've been online since before people had heard of AOL. I've seen the technology advance. Mass gov surveillance is always a threat has never relied on any one technology, how Flock works and is used is a threat to civil rights and data centers, which long preceded it, are not.

  @Kngsolo305 I was late Gen X. I definitely got a bug dose of video games and AOL hit me hard right after high school. I remember being grounded from going outside and having to stay in my room. It was horrible. Now, kids are punished by NOT being allowed to sit in their rooms. So much has changed.

  @hannahhill_sc @right2bear E-forms goes down on Wednesdays for routine maintenance. Do you remember the AOL commercials? “ you’ve got mail” That’s what it’s like in Eforms, without any aesthetic forward thinking

  Such a weird time discussing AI with anyone who isn't super in the weeds right now. 99.9% of people who have been exposed to AI only know "chat", which in my experience is the worst current use case for AI (can be inaccurate, biased, too sycophantic, etc). Meanwhile, the 0.1% actually building **** (be it apps, businesses, websites, dashboards, slide decks, business plans, etc) or using it to help organize your life (translating "stream of consciousness" into readable notes, managing your inbox/calendar, creating a second-brain wiki from links, etc) is seeing where this is all going. Big difference is that the user (YOU!) have direct input on the outputs, whereas chat is just the delusion that you are getting correct answers from some digital deity (just a text version of brain rot, imo). It makes having conversations super weird, like explaining the potential of the internet to someone who only logged on to AOL to read/send email.
