All great points. I'd like to offer some perspective as a layman who jumps on "imminent AGI": that's what these AI folks are trying hard to make me think. It's like the research papers that say there's an &quot

Yes! I have this exact recurring memory when I'm playing around in DALLE2. Specifically the part where they're trying to make the table.

I personally follow where devs are naturally curious. Where I see devs making cool stuff: - AI/ML - traditional coding Where I don't see devs: - Blockchain tech - AR/VR Ultimately I think what happened is the hype cycle made

You're describing the risk/reward calculation. If you want to join immediately after the round is closed, your risk is lower, but so is your reward.

Are the two mutually exclusive? If managers are doing things higher on the hierarchy but employees want higher wages, that just means they're further down the hierarchy and that need hasn't yet been fulfilled.

Absolutely they did. They also didn't wear clothes, or have shelters with walls. So if we went back to that, we could definitely stretch out a few more decades of habitability. It's also fair to say that the temps, even as few as

Dumb question: why don't they do this from the factory?

Arizona is already a place that is uninhabitable to humans for 4 months of the year without a cooling chain (air conditioned house to air conditioned car to air conditioned work). Basic survival there already requires artificial means; addi

Many seem to have forgotten that Netflix stated about four months after the beginning of the pandemic in 2020 that they were at peak subscription, and wouldn't be expecting more growth there. The customers they lost are likely ones the

Teenage Engineering has the best UI design in the business. It's so delicious. It's like visual onomatopoeia.

It doesn't feel beta, but requires salt scripts to make it work correctly?

I'm of two minds on this. On the one hand, I like the idea of the internet being organic where things rot and die, truly forgotten. On the other hand, it's much easier for future historians to look back a hundred years and see the

Can you guarantee that will be the case at any point in the future?

A competitor can be your customers' apathy, or resistance to change. That doesn't throw out Porter's theories, (which still hold very true imo).

This is the fundamental problem with hybrid. It's the worst of both worlds, as it forces a regression to the most-accessible, which will always be video calls. I think a lot of the forced-hybrid environments are a result of companies w

You never would have converted anyway though, right? Black swan events are pretty weak justifications for any decision. In other words, this outage is not -because- it's cloud software. It's because someone, somewhere, broke somet

This is a really cool idea and much more beneficial than simply buying carbon offsets and calling it a day. $925M sounds like not a lot, though. It's a start.

I'm not sure what you mean. If you have a > 100 person company, you either have managers, or you have too many reporting to too few.
