A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.
Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

The Internet is built on the rubble of that bubble...
All those miles of fibre that worldcom put in the ground that sat dark until years after they collapsed, that is what we all are still using to this day, what infrastructure will the ai bubble leave behind when it collapses? The gpus are burnt, and you wouldn't be able to run them in your home even if you wanted to... The power required alone makes that a non starter
An understandable hatred and mistrust of Silicon Valley tech types and technology in general within people.
