Starting yesterday, browsing Reddit on my phone brings up a large app ad on the bottom half of the screen that cannot be removed. The more they push it, the less I use their crappy website.

The linked Reddit thread is quite hilarious. Earlier this year my company hired a new CEO and his first company address was solely to tell everyone to use AI or they’d lose their job and become unemployable in general. I knew right there an

My experience was almost identical. Don’t forget all the time spent balancing image quality with load speed to get that perfect blend of shit quality and slow download.

So does HR not enforce diversity quotas anymore? I remember a Reddit post from last year where someone screenshot the ‘diversity’ page for a company and the image they used was of their employees: all black women. So much diversity!

I visited the UK recently for the first time in a decade. It used to astound me how much everything cost. Groceries. Movies tickets. Gas. Bills. Food and drink. This trip was different. Everything seems either equal to the pricing in the US

So Amazon setup leaderboards to treat AI spending as a game. Then got a bill for $500M in one month. Quite ironic seeing as AWS had bitten many companies in the ass over the years. Karma, baby!

Yeah, I want to see that bodycam footage too. ‘I’m writing you a ticket for holding a phone in your right hand while driving.’ ‘I don’t have a right hand.’ Proceeds to show cop the lack of a right hand. Gets a ticket anyway.

My prediction: AI will cause so much damage to those who adopted it, it will become a slur. Anyone involved in it, or who embraced it to the detriment of their business, will be shunned. It will be the sign of poor judgement.

The downside is far from minor: seasoned employees are being let go, taking with them the very knowledge and skillsets that built these companies, likely never to return. All for a gamble on new tech that has yet to produce anything resembl

C-level FOMO strikes again. Let’s be blunt: any CEO or executive that fell for this AI wealth extraction needs to be fired ASAP. These are not the type of people who you want running a company. My own company hired a new CEO in Q1 and in hi

Spotify cementing their status as possibly the single most artist-hostile company in the world. On the flip side, I see more people purchasing vinyl releases directly from artists these days. For Spotify, a good rule of thumb is: 1 vinyl sa

At college, one professor gave us a list of books we needed for class. All expensive, of course. Used copies were non-existent. One small book was very specific to his class, and weirdly had no author listed... unless you read the receipt.

It’s a scam. Economies are built on such things. Wealth being manipulated from the many to the few. Do it on such a large scale that it becomes something that world governments need to prop up. This scam had a very clear tell right from the

There’s been so much climate alarmism since Al Gore decided to pivot to ‘hero of humanity’ that it barely registers for me now. I still have frozen rice and beans from covid. Hope they’re still good.

My own company hired a young goon of a man to spearhead their AI initiative. Lots of smiles and arrogance from him. Fast forward 2 months and reality has hit. Weekly meetings asking for feedback draw blank stares as employees explain that C

Looks like another clear example of the ‘before’ image being a downscaled version of the ‘after’ image as opposed to an actual upscale. See it all the time with AI offerings.
