Somebody needs to bring back Fucked Company for AI companies.
- jsheard 1y agoCan we bring back Webshit Weekly while we're at it? RIP n-gate, you would have loved talking shit about AI companies.
- formerly_proven 1y agoThat blog aged very well > TikTok (business model: "Uber for Vine") is more popular than Facebook (business model: "Uber for Sino-Soviet Propaganda"), presumably because it bypasses the middleman and delivers the content straight from the source. Hackernews debates whether it's just a matter of time before it turns out to be evil, or whether a social-media application targeted at children and operated by a government full of genocidal monsters is and shall remain "fun." Other Hackernews point out that the app, which is operated by a company in which the murderous, barbaric Chinese government has an ownership stake, is mean to fat people. > Github (business model: "Uber for README.MD") directs its employees to eat its own dog food. Because of Github's acquisition by Microsoft (business model: "Uber for customer abuse"), it turns out that what Github engineers are eating came out of the dog to begin with. Hackernews tries to figure out whether they, as customers of Microsoft's latest desperate attempt to get anyone to use Azure, have any control over their information, or whether they'd be better off remaining with their existing workstation-as-a-service provider, Apple (business model: "Uber for garden walls").

- isoprophlex 1y agoI'm sure an LLM would be up to the task of shit talking as a service. All the big models are probably trained on all of n-gate already. With a bit of high quality prompt engineering as your moat, raising a few million shouldn't be too arduous.
