What does this mean?
- inejge 6mo agoThe plus I haven't encountered before, but "996" is a Google away. In short, working 9 AM to 9 PM, six days per week.
- nandomrumber 5mo agoIf I wanted a machine response I’m quite capable of using my preferred tools. I come here for the conversation. Your comment would have been better without the needles reminder that search providers exist.
- pllbnk 5mo agoMid-20's tech guys vigorously prompting LLM agents in the race to burn as many tokens as possible during 72-hour work week (9 am-9 pm, 6 days per week) in order to, paradoxically, not need to work anymore once AGI is achieved.
- nandomrumber 5mo agoThanks, now that you mention it I was aware of this. But it wasn’t immediately obvious to me what was being discussed in this context, to me it looked like it was maybe a reference for to a certain set of postcodes or telephone number prefixes in reference to a certain set of people or some such. I think the plus threw me.
