Don't let it outside the sandbox. Don't let it have access to anything but dev environments. Continue using git. Never had any issues.

> My feeling is we're still in the Uber era subsidy period I often wonder whether this doesn't continue indefinitely. Uber was able to do this because it was just them and Lyft pla…

Just because it's been done before for a different use-case doesn't mean that building exclusively for this use-case doesn't remove friction.

There are many obvious ways in which this may not be true. Anyone learning the language and some people with learning disabilities, for example, may communicate better via an LLM.

You're welcome to move somewhere with no taxes. I hear those places are all very pleasant.

That's what happens when there's a need for something. You see an explosion in offerings, and then eventually it's whittled down to a handful of survivors.

I just don't think ancient artifacts are comparable to an old TV.

Well, and once this kills the web then Google's AI no longer has a data source its AI can tap to answer questions about anything that happens afterward, so it kind of needs the web…

Yes, but are they on Instagram though?

That doesn't seem like much of a plan given their trailing position in the cloud space and the fact that Microsoft and AWS both have their own offerings.

I wonder if they're pulling the wall-mart model. Ruthlessly cut costs and sell at-or-below costs until your competitors go out of business, then ratchet up the prices once you have…

Half of builders went out of business in 2008 and 1/3 left the trades. We only just recently reached the level of new home starts we were hitting pre great-recession. We have a dec…

Malibu, CA is very expensive to live in as well.

Hard to get much denser than NYC without massive capital expenditure.

> Collusion requires taking supply off the market in order to raise prices. This is factually incorrect.

Yes, living in one of the, if not the, most desirable cities on the planet comes with additional costs.

Housing supply is inelastic due to the time it takes to permit and built. Housing demand is more elastic than you suspect. People have income on a curve, and at a certain point of …

>I have a strong incentive to undercut them Not in a supply constrained market where your rental will be occupied either way.

True but, look up the price fixing that's been going on in big AG via AgriStats. Similar story as OP.

I'm not trying to be snarky, I'm genuinely curious. Have you ever read the economics literature on price controls?

>Dynamic price control of rents How many economics studies, from all schools of economic thought, across 100 years of research need to prove that price controls don't work before p…

I don't think this is a matter of good or evil, simply a matter of business strategy. If LLMs end up being the platform of the future, Zuck doesn't want OpenAI/Microsoft to be able…

Stock vests over time. By providing stock instead of cash the company incentivizes the employee to do their best, because that will ostensibly help the stock to be worth more than …

You seem to have missed an absolutely critical element of what drives human behavior. We call it "incentive".
