The "ZIRP" meme is way overdone by now. ZIRP doesn't explain much. Interest rates had been rock bottom since the 2008 crisis, were already quite low since the 1990s, and are still not very high today. IMO the "vibecessio

Interesting that you'd find Villeneuve's Dune "devoid of life" ; I feel the opposite way. I don't even normally like Villeneuve's work ; found Arrival and Blade Runner a bit empty. But I found that with Dune, h

The cause for poor health-and-safety conduct appears to be cultural, rather than "market dynamics"

Same problem here. In the UK, Maps often shows the names of every road but the one you're on! The only way to show the missing name is by zooming to the max, very awkward.

A 18-year veteran like OP shouldn't be complaining about their manager's lack of vision ; they should have realised by now that it's also their job to enact the vision. He was probably paid too much to behave as a passenger.

Not sure it makes sense to build this thing so far away from where the tourists normally go

Curious to see how long Sam lasts as an employee.

It's probably because this is a very good time for tech companies to publish bad news, that GM chose to fire Vogt now.

Or, even more likely, Apple.

In SV parlance "founder" is a hands-on, full-on role to take the company from 0 to 1.

> And it's not rare for capital providers who are there on day #1 to call themselves and be referred to as co-founders. I believe the opposite, never heard of any hands-off investors calling themselves co-founders.

Sounds like a funder rather than a founder. "chairman" is a hands-off role usually.

The last item, homelessness, is unfortunately common at hackerspaces, hence the widely adopted rule : "don't sleep in the space!" The other dysfunctional nonsense you cite is more specific to your hackerspace in particular.

Chances are he's just saying that as negociating leverage with OpenAI, so as perhaps getting his job back.

Not sure how incorporating will help with those things. Adding a layer of bureaucracy will not magically create accountability.

IDK if it's useless, but it's counter-intuitive to me.

IDK, I wouldn't plan a hike in the mountains based on 10-day predictions.

Not an expert, but "Up to 10 days in advance" sounds like long-term to me ?

Curious. How can AI/ML perform on a problem that is, as far as I understand, inherently chaotic / unpredictable ? It sounds like a fundamental contradiction to me.
