I'm not going to explain all of macroeconomics to you, but the whole point of this discussion is decreasing prices is bad because money stops moving. If money stops moving, you stop getting paid. Is that simple enough for you to understand or does it need to be dumbed down further?

No, like paying your wages. You should read a bit about how things work before getting upset.

what a limp comment you have made. The post contains a treasure trove of insider information and specifics that paint a picture that is dire even to a jaded tech worker.

I'd like to imagine that Adobe/other AI photo editing people are frantically scrambling to fondle their prompts a little harder to avoid things like this. Infinite whack-a-mole.

This made the rounds last week IIRC. Though, looking at it again I realize I didn't notice how over-stressed the hallucinated button is. It's funny in a disgusting way.

Amazon has a similar cult-y thing going on with its ✨leadership principles✨, but this seems worse.

No, it was a racist joke and an attempt to stir up hate for an "other." But keep going on bleating your "well akshually" and broadcasting your moron status.

It's a huge failure of computing that this is the most convenient and obvious way to do this.

US forest service cuts thousands of jobs. Not to worry, the bright hackernews are on it! just install an AI data center in the forest!. Seriously though, I can't tell if this is brilliant satire or not.

best we can do is 100 free chatgpt queries per month. If you can't make a living from that you need to catch up.

I feel like using word2vec and cosine similarity (or something else) from 10 years ago would have been better than this.

He shares a lot of speaking patterns with obvious cranks. I've spent some time listening to people who think they've figured out quantum gravity and the way they make little digressions sounds exactly like Yarvin does in this video. It's not rigorous, but if I didn't know who Yarvin was before watching this video I'm pretty sure I would have thought "crank" and quickly clicked away.
