    We are so far to the 'right' now, that even getting a salary is socialism because it is taking money from those poor billionaires that could use that money to invest and create mor…

    " source was probably the IRCG" Curious. What is your source on the 5%? Why is random chud on the internet a 'better' source.

    Maybe you guys just shouldn't read blogs.

    "I’d rather see a shitty Microsoft Paint drawing as opposed to some AI image." The problem is, there are also AI generated MS Paint drawings that you can't tell is AI. We are only …

    I was responding to you mentioning fiber. But of course, the "internet" does run on servers, which also have a replacement rate. There were data centers before AI, and they had a l…

    I've been through several network upgrades. You are saying the fiber in the ground lasts a long time, but all the equipment on either end gets replaced every ~5 years. I agree this…

    Yep, that is what the bet is. The build out will continue, even if it looks different. The Internet was a 'bubble' at one point, and after it crashed in 2000, it didn't go away, it…

    If the demand is great enough, they can fly trades to site and put them up in a hotel, just like any consultant.

    From your other answers, you know what you are talking about. So wont argue the point. Because I think we would really be arguing about, what level of reality can be calculated in …

    wow. Well, actually, my dear fellow, "NEWS" is short for N.E.W.S., which is North, East, West, and South. Indubitably. How smart, very intelligent.

    The article didn't mention any follow up. He actually served his full sentence. Did he sue after? Was there any accountability?.

    Running a simulation in a browser is not going to be a complete representation of reality. To think that is possible is really weird. So really, what is happening, we are arguing o…

    "an astrophysicist at Harvard's Black Hole Initiative" He probably knows. It's in a browser, there are probably some trade-offs. Calm down.

    Yeah, but they do all go up and down together. It isn't isolated to software jobs.

    One thing on the first graph that jumps out, is that ALL unemployment has gone up/down in same ratio's. Maybe the current job market is not about AI, but all the other variables in…

    HR always adds a lot of years of experience. Even when Java 1.0 came out, HR was asking for 4-5 years of experience. Seems like a decades long problem with people writing the job d…

    An engineering nightmare. But as a passenger, it might be nice. Can take time getting on to the container and settled, and then the whole container gets loaded.

    Then what is causing hiring to be so low, or the layoffs? Just a soft job market in general? The economy is actually tanking, not just "AI" jobs. Did hiring managers just pump the …

    Exactly, that is the point. Not that a drone is outcompeting an F-16. But a hundred cheap drones can definitely get by a F-16 and hit their targets. An F-16 can't get them all. The…

    Simulator tech has come a long way. I wouldn't say a simulator invalidates the result.

    Drones really changed the equation more than Covid. Autonomous F-16's already can win against all human pilots. This would have been big 20 years ago. Now the cheap drones make it …

    I don't think it is completely about the language. JVM taking more memory isn't the problem with in-memory databases. It is having more data than can fit in memory. Even an in-memo…
