DeLoreans are way cooler than these cars. The cybertruck is a Pontiac Aztek designed by a toddler. It’s ugly from virtually every angle

You’re a parakeet in love with your mirror.

Lockups start expiring next month. They’ve still only floated less than 5% of the company! Buckle up buttercup.

They spent a trillion dollars on it. It can’t be a slightly better search and a way for schoolchildren to cheat. It has to be the next industrial revolution, otherwise their investment was not justified.

I remember watching Bond movies as a kid and wondering “where did that evil supervillian get all these henchmen?” Turns out the answer all-along was “linkedin.”.

I think if you unpack the international and you’re in index you’re going to find yourself still heavily invested in AI (TSMC for instance).

I don’t have the option in my 401K to choose to invest in sectors. My only real options when it comes to equities are for instance, large cap vs mid cap. Mid-cap would exclude nVidia but I bet it’ll just end put putting me in even trashier AI stocks. As the bubble has heated up I’ve slowly been moving my retirement out of equities because there’s no real way for me to select “non-AI equities.” I’m down to about 20% equities now, down from 80% before I started messing with it.

Look up how much of your 401K is in nvidia stock right now. It may surprise you.

Why not require a login to browse?

People started allowing scrapers because they needed to get in the search engine indexes to get traffic. But getting scraped being a win-win for the scraper and scrapee is long past. Now it’s completely parasitic. The search engines are even going out of their way to not send traffic to organic results.

I wonder if it’s time to start to create an un-indexable “shadow internet.” Block all scraping even the search engines. Maybe put up login walls. How will people find your website? We’ll have to go back to word of mouth, link rings, or the like.

And at the end of his bubble we’ll have buildings full of obsolete GPUs that can’t even be used to play GTA because they have no display ports.

The Fox Family Institute for Poultry Studies determines that hen house doors should be left open

I suspect what the speculators are getting wise to, is that it’s not going to be a good long term move as a weapons manufacturer to tie yourself so publicly to an increasingly unpopular regime that’s in the middle of losing a humiliating war.

Meanwhile Lockheed and General Dynamics stay winning cause they don’t have a coked-up CEO with a twitter addiction.

I don’t think AI is capable of this kind of human interaction:

That’s not OP’s point. The point is they are clearly getting rid of the guy for telling them their AI plans are dumb. I’ve seen it before. If you see a leader get dismissed or resign right as there is a big policy shift that’s what’s going on internally.

Yeah and “fuckening” is clearly his attempt to bandwagon on “enshittification.”

“Oh so catchy phrases need swear words in them now, I’ll use the sweariest word and have the catchiest phrase!”

AI Doomerism is AI boosterism.

Lots of chuds in the UK…

Tomorrow’s headline: Google announces layoff of 1000 employees.

Nature is healing

Elon had similar PR until he fired them for not “keeping it real.”

“It’s at 90 PSI and is 80 percent air, 15 percent water, and 5 percent oil,”

Something’s seriously wrong with the air system then, and it will contaminate all their work and compromise the welds. Water is a particularly pernicious contaminant in welding because it causes hydrogen in the weld that will make it brittle and crack.

Welding shops have to be CLEAN. There are some welding processes that can work ok with dirty metal (SMAW with some electrode types) but these only work on mild steel, and these processes really aren’t used in a shop or production setup, more for field work.
