Use of Claude for coding increases the number of commits, merges and pushes. Add in difficulty in getting RAM, Disk Storage and Servers. A dash of high energy prices, data center a…

Data centers are the next Dark Fiber from 2000. After VCs and private Equity fund them there will not be sufficient demand because AI will inevitably not entirely live up to all th…

Humans are a bunch of hairless monkeys that have evolved to scam each other rather than hunt and gather food from Nature.

Right on. This only works if you compare it to another extremely aggressively valued company.

If you replaced one CEO that was making 300 times the average salary of an employee - that is equivalent to firing 300 employees. You can have your AI and Reduction in Force withou…

If you don't want to abide by the conditions of a gift - don't accept it.

%80 of CEOs are Meh. %10 of the CEOs add value to the company. %10 of the CEOs are actually detrimental. The %80 will always try and do what they think the top %10 CEOs do because …

Those changes should be taken as a harbinger. Smells a lot like 1999 when a company producing cat turds could get a listing.

I love the ideas and motivations underpinning Github's creation. For a long time Github was the best instantiation of those ideals. Maybe not so much anymore. Transitions are alway…

Definitely meme stonk territory. IMO Elon is good for making the big bets on things with no competition that don't currently exist. The day to day grind of growing a company and ma…

Don't disagree that public transportation is necessary however one size does not fit all people. There are elderly people that have difficulty navigating public spaces for many rea…

I think self driving cars are important for a couple of reasons: 1. Demographics - Aging population needs transportation. God knows we certainly don't need really old people drivin…

Interoperability is what made the Web possible. Not sure I buy that it will save it without a fundamental change in people's behavior. Image you are a 1960s household and RCA tries…

Agreed - another tool in the old tool pouch. I find it fascinating in that it provides insight into the role of language in intelligence. Certainly not AGI but makes ELIZA seem neo…

Salary does not need to be on the budget because it is the same whether you work 40hrs per week or 80.

Does anybody know his investors? I'd like an intro:)

One size never fits all. I am old enough to remember what a game changer Spreadsheets (VisiCalc) where. They made the personal computer into a SwissArmy knife for many people that …

Just goes to show I'm a poor judge of what is written by AI.
