Odd coming from someone who is fucking retired.
I’d suspect he sacrificed work-life balance his whole career (yes, CEOs are known for golfing and vacations, but I bet they still think of work 24/7). So just like people complaining about student loan forgiveness, some people get so angry if they perceive someone might have an easier experience than they did.
So what if he is?
The Zoom RTO was just hilarious.
My favorite part is imagining a speak-to-text app writing “gunfire sounds”
It’s a big school, I bet he was. But not THAT William Taft.
Where’s the lie? I just can’t trust you “gibbons can fly” people.
Well you’re really just inheriting a subscription to the house, you have to keep paying the annual fees or the state takes it away from you.
I kinda like the new google. It’s strong and wrong and doesn’t afraid of anything.
My last Linux dual-boot install was trying to apply Conversion Therapy to me and corrupted my windows boot records. Finally got it resolved, but what a nuisance.
When the ideas run dry for infinite growth, everything old is new again.
Love it when the logical excuse is the Sunk Cost Fallacy.
Though I think there’s some truth - companies still pay employees for their WFH rigs / utilities (or they should be, anyway), so it’s not exactly free for them to have WFH (just a lot cheaper, if there’s a choice).
The logical excuse I buy into is that commercial real estate is valued on it’s income and if business aren’t renewing leases because they don’t need office space, then commercial real estate values tank. That and thinly veiled layoffs.
If you’re in need, check out PCsForPeople, they offer subsidized unlimited 4G hotspots. They’re well suited for low-bandwidth uses and was my primary home internet for a few years. I used Wifi bridge routers to help connect ethernet / more devices / better range.
There’s also still the Lifeline program, which is a much smaller discount, but can still help.
Jon Stewart is fun to listen to, but I swear these headlines are driving me nuts. “Slammed” “skewered” “destroyed”. No, he said critical words that did not even hurt the feelings of the AI industry. Superfluous superlative.
and propaganda
Well, that’s the rub, right? Garbage in, garbage out. For an LLM, the value is predicting the next token, but we’ve seen how racist current datasets can be. If you filter it, there’s not as much lot of high quality data left.
So yes, we have a remarkable amount of (often wrong) information to pull from.
From Lemmy, this link took me to Slashdot, which took me to The Verge, which took me to the Wall Street Journal, each with a section I can discuss this article.
We’re (American’s specifically, but I see echoes in westernized European countries) propagandized into thinking angst is the natural state of teenagers rather than the natural state of teenagers within this specific system. I think teens can just more clearly see the brutal society they’re about to be forced into and don’t have the cognitive dissonance of benefiting from that brutal society yet.
I’m not in the community at all, but I have to respect how these players reacted to getting hacked. I’m sure it was devastating to have their tournament run ruined in that way.
I don’t support Chinese labor regs at all.
I wonder why labor is cheaper in China.
We’ve been conditioned by endless scrolls, for sure.
