most of this complexity is because 1000 different types of businesses are jammed into the same database schema and ERP. Its all non sense

It’s well known that the moat of system of record is how difficult it is to extract your data into another system.

The big risk for these platforms is that AI reduces the cost to switch to another ERP. IF AI can map all of the data between two different competitors, the whole business model is …

I think opinions on HN are less relevant and less information dense. Many people here are not keyed into the true trends in the industry, and instead are cynics

You used your most prized mental faculties to build software: logical intelligence, creativity, etc to make someone else rich

its still not enough, and the up leveling is a problem because the people getting hired arent qualified to be upleveled

what are you even trying to argue? that the most critical part of the biggest companies on the planet dont need to pay above market? i know people at deep mind, its impacting their…

the fate of the company partially rests on whether deep mind does well, you sound like an MBA

they are paying them like rank and file google employees, aside from a few star researchers

I believe that the drugs cause structural changes to the brain that make it more difficult to function in the reward structure of society. You can claim through a philosophical len…

anyone i have met that did Psychedelics more than a few times, permanently changed their brain chemistry in a way that was obvious. sure they dissolve some kind of prison, but many…

Psychedelics arent that far from turning your brain off and then turning it back on again but anyone i have met that did Psychedelics more than a few times, permanently changed the…

no these people have families

Yeah, alot of high stress jobs pay enough to live on, but you cant really get ahead. And so whats the point? Probably the CTO had actual equity, by now they consider it a random ma…

its not that its not enough to live on, its just not worth it for what you give up in life more and more people are just choosing not to play that game

people that are able to work "good jobs" are choosing not to

Anecdotal evidence, but more than half of my friends that grew up: 1. middle upper class 2. college educated at a top 75 college 3. tall, decent looking are just not working regula…
