    You can suspect all you want, I'm not here to argue with anyone's strong feelings about crypto either way. Just that there's an established pattern to how this particular market mo…

    I've used macOS for development for 15+ years now but always built my gaming rigs using Windows. For the first time in my life I'm so annoyed with Windows I'm seriously entertainin…

    Oh I'm well aware. When I was an EM for a bit last year a bunch of colleagues told me they used ChatGPT to write their reviews. It was gross and I always hand crafted, small batch …

    The content of the document matters too. I don't really care if someone was AI-assisted writing a project plan. As long as it's sane and clear I'm not gonna lose sleep over that. H…

    What's the point of this comment? To discourage investing? Reddit-style shitposting? Not sure what you're going for here.
