Think of it this way - Megacorps once upon a time realized they had a lot of lavatories not really being used. So they decided to start renting them out. That became a profitable business. Thanks to how Corporate Robots are programmed, the

He is basically the John Hammond character in Jurassic Park. He will continue to cling to his creation well after the power goes out, the kids are missing and the Raptors and T-Rex are loose. Only problem is he hasn't been running this

Corporate Robots are programmed with 2 rules - Everything has to be scaled up & It's easier to ask for forgiveness than permission. Then they are let loose on the world where they fuck up, junked and a new model with the same progr

Well life span is not the point of the story imho, so don't worry about it. The data will prove that too in time.

It is anxiety inducing. Reminds me of this quote - "I think cyberspace means the end of our species. It means the end of innovation. This idea that the whole world is wired together is mass death. Every biologist knows that small group

It's scary but we evolve and learn from it. While they can be targeted with fear and misinformation. The opposite also holds. They can be targeted to diffuse fear and inject purpose, hope etc. Which is the thesis of the book Nudge (by

Yeah makes sense. I guess there is some kind of Tree of Weakness that keeps evolving and needs constant pruning.

I have a feeling there is certain minority in any population that is quiet happy to live off the weaknesses of the rest. Whatever those weaknesses maybe. And they usually just migrate to the next weakness exploiting enterprise once one is s

I'll believe they are doing something useful the day they setup a Burger shack opposite a McDonalds and outcompete on inventory or queuing or something practical. Nobody in industry cares about Rubik's cubes and Go.

Yup what works and doesn't work depends on many factors (personality type, what people have been through in life, number of dumbasses they are currently surrounded by etc) so the outcomes can be highly unpredictable no matter what you

The article is not saying orgs have reduced hiring MBAs is it? That would be a sign of not having value. It's saying people are not applying because they have better opportunities and don't want to deal with immigration headaches.

Man...Math textbook/website/vid overload is making me weep for some reason. Most of this stuff hasn't changed in 200 years. Wtf do we need so many books for? Total failure of Math Pedagogy imho.

These days newsrooms do have a bunch of technical people on staff (plus access to an amazing network of experts outside), to do the kind of digging the article talks about. Resource, time constraints, pressure to publish before someone else
