I am a Gen X. My grandmother, who was born in 1906 and passed on in 1994, worked at home, cooked, cleaned for most of her life. He had 3-4 dresses in her closet, and whenever I visited she gave some money to go buy a small bottle of Sprite

Disgusting. A drop in a bucket, quickly recovered via tax breaks, government spending, etc. Meta employees should be accountable for this. And stock buyers too. You could choose to work elsewhere. You could choose to invest in something els

I see your point and share it up to a point… but how does it square with the full western economies gambling all or nothing on AI?

Maybe it’s a process. Many of the transitions you mentioned did bring shitty apps (not all of them, the ones replacing tech for tech were mostly ok, the ones democratizing dev did come with a quality drop), but eventually Darwinism will tak

I feel like it will be like going back to the 80s, when PCs became a norm and most programmers and hobbyists could code without the need of a University or a Corporation. Thousands of shareware apps you had to navigate, everyone trying to

Some Latin American cities were designed as grids (100m x 100m squares), and numbering of blocks spans a hundred per block (first block is 0 to 100 house numbers). So if you are at 200s in one street and are looking for a house at 1200s, yo

I bought two office phones for 30 euros each (Yealink) and set up a VOIP plan with voip.ms for my 8 and 9 YO kids. I recently got divorced, so there is a phone at each house in case they want to reach out to the other parent directly. Ex an

Most fund managers have an IQ of 50. And they get paid by fees. They will put your pension money into OpenAI without a doubt, as it’s easier to participate, crash and shrug that stay out. “Nobody got fired for hiring McKinsey” in the PE bro

Seems quite dangerous. In my country, this was the norm for local flights - usually smaller planes, 1-2hr flights. It was common that if you could not attend a meeting, a colleague would go with your ticket. Nobody cared. Then one plane c

The problem itself is not IP protection…. They tried that, and were always chasing behind - servers changed week after week, ban after ban. So, misteriously (suspicions of bribery abound) now they block full blocks of internet preventively,
