> Now that everyone forgot why the new technology was bad, we're free to begin the cycle again. We can very easily break the cycle by training a deep learning TensorFlow brain in the cloud, that will be fed the daily mouse gestures and key presses of all developers in the world. It's an awesome new technology that can solve any problem. Pretty soon the global brain will start to see patterns emerging, for example when developers post hype phrases on forums with unsubstantiated claims about the potential of some awesome new technology. As soon as a hype event is detected, a strong electric shock is commanded via the device the developer is using, thereby stopping the hype flow and paralyzing the devellllllllllllllllllllllllllll

      That was the goal, thank you :) It's amazing how many stupid to the point of crazyness situations seem perfectly natural nowadays. Thank computers!

sounds like an awesome idea! Anyone who wants to do a startup around this I have an awesome idea about how to implement this using blockchain and a serverless tech stack :D

  Serverless is my most hated buzz word, even if I like what it actually means. I mean come on, there are always servers.
  - FuckOffNeemo 8y ago
    An article or maybe comment on HN the other day where serverless is hyperbolic hit the nail on the head. The OP at the time suggest serverless should instead be re-branded Function as a Service which is a considerable improvement.

5 years later, tensor flow brain writes a medium post about why its very creation was a bad idea, then follows up with a quick rebuttal article about how it is just using itself incorrectly.

Tensorflow? Dude you're thinking of an old technology. The new way to do it is not AI, but NI -- natural intelligence. You take human babies, and you send them to schools and colleges where they learn programming. Then you make them use daily mouse gestures and key presses to solve problems. Its hard to explain, but it is the new leap forward.
