No, that makes sense to you . I grew up with someone who is now in the C-Suite of one of America's largest corporations - a company that has been in the Fortune 100 for decades. He has bounced from directorship to C-Suite in Fortune 5

It's a little scary that Azure team leads are that clueless. I would really, really love to hear more about this if you would indulge us. If not us, then certainly send me an email, please.

If you're going to die, die with honor, not without. Basically the board's choices are commit seppuku and maybe be viable somewhere else down the line, or try to play hardball and fuck your life forever. It's not really t

You're reading this wrong. When you fuck up, you get punished for it. And the OpenAI board is about to be punished. This is the problem with giving power to people who don't actually understand how the world works. They use it stu

Public transit does not work in a place like Montana or Wyoming. Sorry. Too large, too sparsely populated. Same reason it won't work for most of Texas either. It's fine in Dallas or Austin, parts of Fort Worth... it doesn't s

I guess 8 year olds shouldn't be playing in the street then. If you want your matchbox-sized car, more power to you, get yourself a Mini and call it a day. I want and need something that I can drive out into the pasture, up the hill, t

This has been my experience as well. Every person I've noticed who says that ChatGPT isn't good at what it does has the same thing in common - they're not great at talking to people, either. Turns out when you train an AI on

jstarfish's point is, "Know when to back the fuck down, or be invincible." And since none of us are Superman, you better know when to back down if you want to keep breathing. That isn't hyperbolic advice - you can apply

That's the original discussion for you, maybe. I didn't see that one. At any rate, whoever wrote is right. Except the ordering of your words is wrong. Journalism not bad. Bad journalism is bad - it's worse than bad, it's
