Wait Kotatsu is shut down? Shit…

pro tip! just let the other person repeat themselves even though you already have your answer loaded. this gives you some advantages:

• avoid answering what you think they asked the first time and answer what they’re actually asking
• opportunity to re-evaluate your answer as they repeat the question and make sure you still like it
• after they repeat the question you already have an answer ready to go which makes you seem like you’ve got a high degree of expertise in the field even though it’s just that you heard them the first time but were still processing

Google killing inbox was what radicalized me to that the entire business model of big tech is bullshit

this is something far more intensive than stagflation. they’ll say it’s just stagflation at first, but this is a full blown economic depression. not even just a recession. we’re talking full blown economic collapse a la the 1930s or 1840s

oh well fuck me, this is mindblowing news. microsoft has always been so precious about the exchange protocol i just assumed that’s the way it would always be

probably never gonna happen

what?

norwegian waffles are severely underrated

see, but they’re not competent. further, they don’t care. most of these ai companies are snake oil. they’re selling you a solution that doesn’t meaningfully solve a problem. their main way of surviving is saying “this is what it can do now, just imagine what it can do if you invest money in my company.”

they’re scammers, the lot of them, running ponzi schemes with our money. if the planet dies for it, that’s no concern of theirs. ponzi schemes require the schemer to have no long term plan, just a line of credit that they can keep drawing from until they skip town before the tax collector comes
