You know how billionaires end up with severe cognitive deficits as a result of becoming surrounded by yes men who constantly tell them their every idea is genius? What if we made a bot that just does that to everyone. I think that would be great.
Being in tech and having a single modicum of critical thinking is just screaming "this isn't what LLMs are designed for" over and over as people shove a bunch of word predictors into critical decision making processes because some glorified used car salesmen told them it would fix all their problems.

Yet more companies laying off employees not because AI is replacing them, but because they need more money to fund their AI. I can't remember the last time I saw sunk cost fallacy at this scale.

As much as I love the job security, someone is going to have to stop these AI bros before they have us watering the crops with Brawndo.

When someone is comfortable making posts supporting the AfD, defending a Nazi salute, and mocking trans people and DEO from their professional account under their real name, you can only wonder what they do in private. I'm certainly not comfortable sharing a space with someone like that, and I'm sure many others aren't either.
Lol Florian is big mad because I called him out for defending a Nazi salute and spreading AfD (German Neo-Nazi party) propaganda.
It's true though, I do dislike him for other reason. I've disliked him ever since 2020 when I had to unfollow him for posting MAGA nonsense. I then disliked him even more when he decided not to respect my decision to leave Twitter and kept reposting my posts there without my permission while simultaneously mocking my decision to leave, and now that he's gone full blown mask-off neo-Nazi, I dislike him close to the maximum amount I can dislike a person.

I wouldn't put it past Joe Rogan to have endorsed Trump purely based on Kamala not coming on his podcast.
I like how the Google CEO is trying to use the excuse that new products always have issues to justify the fact their new AI powered search absolutely sucks, as if they didn't spend over a decade doing the same thing with featured snippets, which also absolutely sucked.
Bruh. I just want a nice luxury EV that doesn't fund the world's most obnoxious man baby and his awful social media platform. If you're gonna lock BYD out of the US market, at least ask one of the US manufactures to make some good cars first.

US College kids protesting genocide: "Hamas supporters"
Israeli occupiers setting fire to humanitarian aid trucks (a literal war crime): "activists"
Bruh.

I can see the Northern Lights from Los Angeles lmao
After a year off Twitter, I'm surprised that I don't have even a single regret about leaving. The more I think about it, the more I realize it wasn't the takeover that did it. Sure, there was a massive and harmful political shift, but there's just always been something about the platform that attracts extremely unhealed people regardless of political leaning.
You can make a post like "I just got a coffee and the milk was sour" then someone on the right will be like "Biden's border crisis is the reason we can't get good milk anymore" and then someone on the left will be like "do you think starving children in Africa would complain about sour milk?". Eventually, you just realize the platform is designed for people who's only form of therapy is logging on to the internet and being annoying as fuck.
Am I reading this right? The judge just dissolved all of Trump's companies and revoked their licenses to do business?

If I ever get accused of something and the only people who come to my defense are Andrew Tate and Elon Musk, you have my permission to kill me.
I say half-joking because last year some published data showing that per capita less civilians died in the Ukraine war than were murdered in several US cities š„“ā
I often half-joke that moving from Western Europe to the US is the national equivalent of defense contractors opting to deploy to an active warzone because the hazard pay is good.

FML. My apartment management just showed up to install the new internet package, which sounded pretty good (Symmetrical Gbit). Dude comes in to set it up and is trying to install a wifi access point behind my couch. I told him I don't need an access point because I have my own mesh network, I just need to connect the new modem to my network rack. He starts trying to explain that the internet doesn't require a modem, so I'm like confused af.
After like 10 minutes of trying to figure out wtf this guy is talking about, I realized they've installed an apartment complex wide wifi mesh network, so there is no individual internet packages anymore. Everyone in the entire apartment complex is just connected to one big wifi network. They claim all the users are segmented by VLAN, but I genuinely don't think I've ever wanted something less in my life.
"I'm getting rid of the block feature because it makes no sense"
Translation: "a lot of people have blocked me because I behave like a 5.2 year old instead of the 52 year old I am and this hurts my feelings"
