What faith? I never made the claim you're attributing to me. Smug idiots like you are wrong all the time.

"Nobody knows how we think, yet." Then how can you confidently say we don't think 'like' Transformers/Attention/Statistical models/etc/etc?

I read this and can't help but chuckle... To say that we are nowhere being able to have AGI is quite a bold statement. It was after all only a few months ago where many people also believed we were a long way away from ChatGPT-4. The c

Employees can and do work part-time. What a silly 'diss' lol.

For an employer the fix is simple: Each year fire the 10,20,30% least productive employees.

Wow... So like magic? Why aren't all successful businesses already doing this if they can get more productivity for less time?

If workers were more productive working less hours you wouldn't need the government to do anything - businesses acting in their own interests would do this automatically. The government doesn't know how to run businesses better th

As an employer there are plenty of jobs that I would be perfectly fine allowing the employee to work 20% less, as long as they cost me 20% less.

I understand that this is the narrative, but show me what markets specifically. Even if ownership is 10%. That means 90% of homes that are bought and sold are NOT to foreigners. The fact is that inflation has eroded away the value of $$ an

Typical - print 100s of billions, when assets inflate blame x, y or z. How about Justin explains how foreigners owning 2% of homes in Canada has ANY impact whatsoever on prices?

It's interesting to me that, generally speaking, both Uber and it's drivers are fine with the way things are, entering into a mutually agreed upon contract... Only to have people who have no skin in the game tell them both what th

If you want to talk about fairness, imagine the guy who started near the bottom, made his way out of dire circumstances, climbed to the top through hard work and perserverance sacrificing his 20s and 30s (all while his friends sat around sm

Revenue is largely irrelevant in either case. And why would anyone treat an established retailer like a high-growth company? That makes no sense.

Walmart only makes less than $7k per employee. They have 2.2million employees. Regardless of the common narrative - they simply can't afford to raise all of their employees wages by any meaningful amount with their current profits.

Well the reality is also that if $24/hr was the minimum wage the price of items would be through the roof and that $24/hr would be worth less than what the $15/hr is worth now. No such thing as a free lunch. You can't j
