This is the time were investors need to be careful. Companies go public for a few reasons. 1) to use the shares to buy other companies 2) companies that are so profitable that they don't need the money but they want to cash out some of

Books are a hard sell. Think about it. You need to get someone to spend their time, lots of time, reading a book they have very little knowledge about. You have to convince them that its worth their time. You do that though promotion and t

I don't gave proof but I would say that most successful startups are copies of other startups. A unique idea is so much harder to execute in both money and effort so coping an ongoing business and making it better is the way to go. A

When i started using LLMs for code writing the code it wrote was messy and mostly wrong. Recently my experience with relative small apps has been very positive. The code has been very readable and compact. But I can see where the code can g

Yikes, it's 2 bedrooms, 3 baths and 2,200 sqft. Still, I wish I had the bux to buy it. The view is out of this world. I bet it will sell for more.

Short term it's maybe. Longer term it's no. Long term the value of products that can be automated will trend to 0 while products that can't be automated will go the other way. I'm one that believes that very few products

I’ve worked on major website redesigns, and there’s so much more to it than just refreshing a few screens. A big redesign is kind of like making a 90min film that costs over $100 million. What you see on the surface is only a small part of

I would think so. I'm sure it's one of the documents used to train the LLMs. It does not surprise me that a checker would think it was AI generated. I bet if you put any popular document, the same will happen. True, people are pu

Yes, it would be great to have a second source but no one has the resources the government has to gatherthe data. They do a pretty good job and they try to be as accurate as possible. I can't see any another organization gathering the

We all make mistakes. We all care about ourselves more than anyone. The idea that people are dwelling on your mistakes is crazy. They are dwelling on their lives and don't care about your mistakes unless it affects them. So, if you mak

I don't get it. Why has this company become a thing? They aren't solving a problem or working towards fixing a problem. I would even say they are just wasting recourses and causing future problems. Why are they getting so much att

Very true but I also think that being poor is a mindset to change. I've known of people that would couch surf but they were never poor. We knew, they knew, that at anytime they could turn it around, and they did. They wanted to do thin

I think we’ll adapt to whatever AI throws our way. Think about it when Excel came along, it took away a lot of the boring, repetitive stuff in accounting. The accountants who learned to use it didn’t lose out they actually did better. That’

True, but people continue to signup and watch their shows. I think the AI stuff will probably be even worse but the content will be so inexpensive that it will make a profit even with less viewers. Profit is what matters so it will be cons

Hollywood has gone through this before with streaming and it lost. When Netflix first started, Hollywood studios were willing to license their content. But as soon as they realized Netflix was threatening their future, they tried to resist

One big reason: They over promise with out checking with the engineers. Leading to rush modification and/or unmet promises. That's one big reason. They shouldn't hate salespeople since without them they would most likely not

Not at all, most programming jobs are more about getting things done than the satisfaction of creating some programming master piece. You are assigned a part of the cog and you a responsible to get it done ASAP. It's a blue collar job

Trying to proof the impossible with science is does not work. These type of books may use sound logic to build on their premise but the big problem is that the premise is build on sand and has no footing so the whole proof false apart. Bott

The dollar index has fallen 11% this year and it doesn't seem to slow. It's great for assets, Gold being a prime example, and people with assets but bad for consumers. It's hard to see how this will not turn into inflation si

I think Tim Cook has done an outstanding job as CEO. He's done a solid job making the most of Jobs' vision after he passed. But at this point, there’s not much left to work with. He’s great at turning a vision into profit, but he

We've seen the results over and over again. What will happen is that eventually an authoritarian government will replace the previous government. Look at, USSR, Iran, Nicaragua, China. They all had a corrupt government toppled where pe

I like the basic idea but 2 hours seems short specially for young kids that need structure. I suspect 65k is the cost of getting individualized teaching. AI will give each student what they need to learn but I'm sure there will be some

This is AI everything. The middle, average, is the norm. I wonder is society will be able to scape it? New music is the rehash of previous bland songs. It catches your ear but it somehow feels like you've heard the song before. That&#x

I wondered how all that expensive hiring would impact employee's feelings related to working at Meta as to how much money the new AI staff is getting paid relative to their own pay. Imagine this, you worked for Meta for X long time the
