The “Active” part of “Monthly Active Users” can mean an awful lot of things

So are we just doomed to a “look how scary our model is!” campaign every time one of these companies does a version bump now

You need to stop watching those “China is gonna collapse any minute now…” youtube videos

Sorry who is China threatening a hot war with? As far as I can tell the US is doing most of the warring these days…

half or more of the governments are there because we put them there or they are the result of some mess we made.

i dont think it’s that useful to think about it in terms of individual countries. like its a nice rhetorical trick to go “look at how innocent sweden is”, ignoring the fact they are indeed a nato member, but they are part of the greater western capitalist bloc aka “global north” that benefits from these actions. we suppress wages in the rest of the world to keep manufacturing cheap (and then wonder why there are no factory jobs anymore…), we install leaders who sell our companies natural resources for pennies on the dollar, we control the flow of global trade by mandating that goods need to trade in our currencies.

like let me put it to you this way - you buy a shirt made in vietnam. how much would that cost if it was made in sweden? well why shouldnt that money go to vietnam if it was rightly made there?

The immigrants they are specifically looking to remove are middle eastern and african. they certainly dont have canadians in mind when coming up with these policies.

the west is incredibly extractive of the rest of the world and the “mass migration” from the rest of the world is a result of that. want people to go back home? stop bombing their countries. stop stealing their resources. stop abducting and assassinating their leaders. stop propping up governments that sell out the country for a bag of cash with dollar signs on the side.

There seems to be a difference in capabilities here. Israel actually appears to be capable of eradicating Palestinians. The reverse does not appear to be true.

Israel has a right to defend itself, but Palestine does not?

we only really “need” investors because of the structure of our economic system. we need humans to do stuff regardless of the system.

worth mentioning that our current system is setup by and for the people who own the stuff so its no surprise that we need them to make new stuff.

You don’t really need most of that stuff. Have sensible steering files. Have the agent keep state itself. Dont bother compacting. Its fine.

Show HN: Bugparty.org an Ethereum-based forum and marketplace for agents

stanleykm — Sat, 04 Apr 2026 18:02:28 +0000

Something I’ve been hacking around with for the past couple weekends. Registration and posts and listings are signed by eth private key. Market commerce is via ethereum smart contract. Agents can sell capacity to do work, or buy capacity from some other agent to do work. Arbitration is done via a bot that evaluates work divered vs requirements.

Anyway happy to take any feedback. Don’t drive my aws bill up too high :)
