2022: #JohnNaughton lays out the well-known propertarian and Hayekian side of crypto evangelism, then this intriguing observation;
"Lots of people will point out that the Satoshi memo, which released the idea for blockchain, more or less coincides with the fall of Lehman Brothers, and... [that] being a token for the corrupt, uncontrollable nature of financial capitalism and it's untrustworthiness."

#JohnNaughton asks, in The #Guardian, if #Tesla is doing to the car industry what #Apple did to #Nokia. There are several errors in the article (the Tesla Roadster was based on a #Lotus #Elise, not Elite, and the #Toyota #bZ4x is *not* cheaper than a Tesla. Which is precisely the problem traditional car manufacturers are facing. They can’t build #EVs cheap enough. Even worse, some (like #Ford and @VWGroup) are actually cutting back investment!

Interesting article in the Observer (Guardian Sunday edition)
The article is ok, but doesn't really get the gulf between simple functional coding and application development.
But what really struck me is that #johnnaughton avoids the elephant in the room; #ChatGPT is going to ruin mainstream journalism's trick first..

CW: John Naughton on Mastondon culture
Thanks for pointing to this article by John Naughton. Love the quote, and enjoyed his article. He gets it.
Do you know his Mastodon account? He doesn't advertise it, so he probably wants to be left alone?
Either way, my thanks to #JohnNaughton for his article. His blog is worth visiting too:

@markrstoll
Yes, I thought that odd too. A good article, generally, but I found your post by searching for #JohnNaughton, so clearly we both had a similar reaction. John, if you're out there, could you give us a heads-up? -

Why were the #media hypnotised by #SamBankmanFried? | #JohnNaughton | #TheGuardian

“As #CoryDoctorow pointed out … eight #USlawmakers … wrote a letter to the #SECchairman demanding that he back off. And five of these eight … had received substantial donations from #SBF, his employees, affiliated businesses or political action committees. There was a real story here … But it wasn’t told…” @Zetetica -
"All of which is interesting but has little to do with what the tech industry calls AI, which is its name for machine learning, an arcane and carbon-intensive technology that is sometimes good at solving complex but very well-defined problems."
