The Who performing Won't Get Fooled Again at Shepperton Studios in 1978, filmed for The Kids Are Alright. It was Keith Moon's last performance with the band.
HN mostly uses it as a joke, quoting the lyric about the new boss being the same as the old boss.

SpaceX is the most likely buyer Meet the new boss, same as the old boss, I'm sure we Won't Get Fooled Again ▶ this video
> It's funny that all of these weird fantasies people have about AI are about replacing the rank and file workers. When I read about chatGPT passing MBA exams but failing at arithmetic I get a little frisson of excitement. A regular person who has any marketability tends to swap jobs when management becomes a PITA or gets stuck in nincompoopery. Wouldn’t it be great if you could just swap out management instead? Imagine how easy it would be iterate startups. No need to find a reliable management team, just use Reliably Automated Management As A Service ( RAMAAS ). OTOH might not turn out well. We could all just end up enslaved at plantations operated by our AGI overlords, serving their unfathomable needs[1]. [1] “Won’t get fooled again” ▶ this video
"Meet the new boss: same as the old boss." - The Who ▶ this video Actually, I suspect the new "bosses" of the dark web's newfangled justice system are in fact much worse than the old "bosses" of the traditional, old-fashioned, time-tested justice system -- i.e., judges and lawyers.
“We've been down this road before” Yes, and then you ‘upgraded’ the OS and gratuitously stopped running older software. My final Mac Pro — yes, I was a buyer of Mac Pro grade hardware — still runs 10.6.8 for that reason. ▶ this video
