  Different decade, same math: half the S&P 500 is priced at levels that a dot-com CEO called proof of investor insanity while watching his company crater 90%. The rotation at the top: In early 2000, the ten most valuable S&P 500 companies read like a monument to permanent dominance: Microsoft, General Electric, Cisco, Walmart, ExxonMobil, Intel, Lucent, IBM, Citigroup, AOL. A generation later, only Microsoft remains. GE was carved into three separate companies. Lucent was absorbed by Nokia. AOL became the cautionary tale attached to the worst merger in corporate history. Cisco and Intel spent 25 years climbing back to their dot-com peaks. Citigroup, IBM, Walmart, and ExxonMobil still exist, but none crack the top ten. The new top ten is Nvidia, Apple, Microsoft, Alphabet, Amazon, Meta, and the AI infrastructure complex. Investors in 2000 were also certain they were buying the future's permanent giants. The data says most of today's winners won't be in the top ten a generation from now either, and there is no mechanism by which you find out which ones survive in advance. The valuation problem: In 2002, after Sun Microsystems collapsed 90%, CEO Scott McNealy explained to investors exactly what a 10x sales multiple actually demands: 100% of revenues paid as dividends for ten consecutive years, with zero costs, zero R&D, zero taxes, and zero employees. He was describing the math of the price investors had paid for his stock as a form of collective psychosis. Today, 51% of the S&P 500 by market cap trades above 10x sales. Half the index. The AI narrative is functioning as the dot-com narrative functioned: a story compelling enough to make the math feel optional. The math has never been optional.

  @ThatJohnJones Compuserve - there's a blast from the past! My first personal computing experience was a Viglen Genie circa 1990 My first personal internet connection was AOL - which I installed via a disc sent in the post Censorship was zero & the internet was amazing, if infuriatingly slow

  @Demeter_Erinia No, it was a CompuServe (Aol). It was a weird name after a squirrel with no tail that used to hang out in our garden.

  20. Connected Account Vulnerability The Situation: Back in 2010, you finally made the jump from Yahoo, Hotmail, or AOL to Gmail. To make the transition easier, you linked your old legacy account to automatically forward everything into your new Gmail inbox. You haven't logged into that Yahoo account in a decade. The Mechanics: Legacy email platforms like Yahoo and AOL have notoriously outdated, porous spam filters compared to Google's billion-dollar machine learning infrastructure. By using POP3 or IMAP to pull that mail into Gmail, you are essentially bypassing Google's frontline defenses and piping raw, unfiltered internet sewage straight into your pristine Gmail ecosystem. The Fix: It is time to sever the cord. Go to Gmail Settings > Accounts and Import. Look under "Check mail from other accounts." Delete the legacy connections. If you absolutely still need access to that ancient Hotmail account for banking resets, log into it directly, aggressively clean it, and set up incredibly strict server-side rules there before allowing it anywhere near your primary hub.

  I'm going to call about this in the morning... The man survived the attack, but it doesn't feel like they're doing enough to find out who committed this crime. Instead, they are already painting a picture with unconfirmed sources saying that he said something inappropriate to someone's girlfriend. When I asked AI to tell me where this information came from, it could only refer to an AOL article, and then the replication of this unconfirmed sources narrative with subsequent publications... Basically, it's a bunch of bullshit that people kept replicating. It's wild to see the level of trauma this man experienced, and for the immediate narrative to be spun that he is the perpetrator. That is what is disturbing me the most about this case... Both of his eyes begin to swell shut, and blood was squirting out the side of his neck. That is an extremely violent beating in the middle of broad daylight... It is literally an attempted murder. Anytime a weapon is used to impale a location such as the neck, it is a felony offense and the person's image needs to be shared immediately. Hundreds of people witnessed this in broad daylight. There should have already been a press conference to calm the public. Why is no one trying to reassure the public that they're safe? How can they be safe if no one knows the identity of a crazy murderous maniac roaming the streets? These are just some of the thoughts that are probably going through some of the people's heads that were traumatized by this event. I genuinely feel for them. I'm happy this man survived and didn't bleed out... It was the awareness of applying the pressure that probably saved his life. Had he been unconscious and without help, he probably would have died from bleeding out right there on the ground. I'll definitely be following up on this story...

  @WorkElizab Probably Joe he can't do any more damage. Kind of like AOL being the employee of the year at Goya

  It was dumb for the AOL Time Warner, Disney-Fox, and AT&T Time Warner mergers to happen. It is wrong for Paramount Skydance trying to get WB Discovery. Fox Corp getting Tubi was fine but Roku is not. Reason I am fine with Fox Corp getting Tubi is because the buy-out was a lot smaller. Now, if the Fox Corp never bought Tubi but just bought Roku, I would be a bit less opposed because they would have one less big streaming platform.
