Well they used the money to buy a house in New York so it wasn't 15000 , because that's not a down payment for a New York house/ apt, even in the 90s.

Of the games you mention it's civilization that's kind of hard to replay for me. RR tycoon had fewer, worse, iterations. All Xcom games are super replayable with the exception of Xcom 3. Colonization is super replayable and it&#x2

You don't get how this works. You buy in AWS because everyone else is , so it's expected. It diffuses risk to your stock options. This also begets a whole generation of people who can only use cloud services so now you are more ha

Yeah it's called wealth transfer and the vast majority is on the wrong end.

Sounds like a false dichotomy. NASA got all these different subcontractors to feed, in all these different states and they explicitly gutted MOL and dynasoar and all the air force projects that needed weird orbits and reentry trajectories s

You would need a new sense of self and a life free of fear, raising children where they can truly be anything they like and teach their own kids how to find meaning in a life lived well. "Best I can do is treefiddy" though..

Bro it's fine everyone's doing it get to the program. We all just need to use multiple agents with memory and skills and orchestrate them, connect them to ticketing systems with workload federation and let them create lambdas to p

Yes but every time the "why" is obscured perhaps not completely because there's no finished overview or because the original reason cannot be derived any longer from the current state of affairs. Its like the movie memento: y

Excellent point. The intention of business is profit, how it arrives there is considered incidental. Any product no matter what, as long as it sells. Compounding effects in computing, the internet and miniaturisation, have enabled large pro

You do need to be able to understand nonstick coating is unhealthy and not magic. You do need to understand your options for pan frying for not sticking are a film of water or an ice cube if you don't want to add an oil into the mix. T

Nah bro it makes them productive. Get with the program. Amazing . Fantastic. Of course it resonates with idiots because they can't think beyond the vicinity of their own greed. We are doomed , noone gives two cents. Idiocracy is here a

It's a cult, these people really just want to believe everything is better because of unhinged capitalism, not despite it.

It's not just tech it's everything. This is an existential crisis because we have rolled back almost two centuries. We are just handing the keys to the kingdom to these sociopaths, and we are thanking them for it. They are not eve

You are measuring differently..they measure in how much stuff they ship. They don't measure if it's going to break , if it is not very maintainable, or how much it will cost to keep using the LLM I. The future. Remember its an ext

The prompt user is basically selecting patterns from latent space. So you kind of need to know what you're looking for. When you don't know what you're looking for that's when the fun begins, but that's a problem fo

Should it be what matters most? Idiots leading idiots in a circle.

That requires thinking. Let's just ship now, think later. Does it matter? Show me the money and all that. We will all just ride in the sunset with Butch Cassidy and the Sunset Kid I'm sure.
