One of the best predictions from Idiocracy is our reliance on AI that no one understands anymore. They made all of these systems that did everything for them and decades later, after barely even needing to think for themselves for so long, they’re dumb as rocks and have no idea how anything works.
I usually navigate the web with javascript disabled and encounter this a lot with articles that require scripts just to display words on a page. A really weird example of this is engadget articles. They display an empty page if you have javascript disabled. The only reason why is their css has the html tag set to display:none. If you uncheck that css prop in the dev tools then the content appears normally. Weird choice on their part.
