    what's missing from this article, they briefly mention it, is the type of protein. that matters. the amino acid profile of the protein really matters. the most important one of cou…

    all the parody jokes aside, I still think hacker news commenting is so much more informative and solution oriented than reddit.

    universal health care can be offered even in 3rd world countries but they're really smart about keeping costs low. they drastically cut the costs of medical service by just offerin…

    the AI bros would counterargue and say that with all the increased productivity, it will just open up more opportunities and thus more jobs. But, i don't think we're seeing that. N…

    at the scale that google is at, it doesn't make an ounce of sense to hold a company liable for a potential mistruth. what if there's a 1/1000 chance of some error, then the company…

    yeah, staggering. it's utterly amazing how much people care about gas prices. i can't wrap my mind around it. I mean, would people really rather be out on the street rather than ge…

    shelter isn't just a cherry picked item. It's by an far the largest spending category, that and healthcare. I couldn't care less about all the other categories, personally.

    Your own site shows there's very very little demand for entry level SWE which mirrors all the other data we've seen. BTW, cool site!

    be careful with "real" hourly earnings. if they're using the CPI then it can be very misleading. One need only compare nominal wages vs nominal rents per square foot for the last 5…

    NYTimes and the big media papers in general seem to have this entitled arrogance. Like they feel entitled to have an audience or something. I've noticed similar predatory behavior …

    Well, usually they would never tell the person the real reason for the firing or layoff anyways. there's no benefit for them to tell you, it just increases liability.

    fb doesn't actually "sell your data", they use for ad targetting and even then, the ad targetting is waaayyy off, in my experience. they're hardly getting any use out of it for tar…

    i think it's more about cutting costs. Usually, cutting costs when there is opportunity to do so is a lot easier than growing revenue.

    Didn't google say that AI had increased their company's productivity by 10%? if that's the case, then how can they justify spending 50% to 100% of wages on it?

    "Deal with it" is the response these CEOs give. Well, don't be surprised when society starts to regulate or even outright ban AI and data centers. Companies will need to "deal with…

    flat rate taxes are never fair. It should be based on a per use basis. either have a tire tax or some other per mile use tax.

    We've seen this before. google ceo also met with boos about AI at a commencement. It's simple: AI threatens jobs/careers and paychecks. And, we've built an entire society that requ…

    the difficulty of bringing produce to market is reflected in the cost structure. 90% of a food dollar goes towards all the efforts required to get food to the customer (transportat…

    but does it really cover all the layoffs? if a company just slowly oozes out employes via pips or attrition without rehiring, i don't think it will cover the full extent of manpowe…

    but why rehire at all? if AI is even half as competent as they say it is, then they don't need all those employees. Afterall, some of the latest models are passing the GDPW benchma…
