  It always comes to a point where the only way to improve traffic is to flatten the buildings people drive to, defeating the purpose.

  The law of the asphalt jungle dictates a strict hierarchy maintained by the current value of the vehicle. The rare and elusive hypercar at the top, Bentley and Rolls Royce after that, BMW, Audi, Mercedes claim their place after the big boys, then comes the rabble with the commoner brands like Opel, Renault, Peugeot, Volkswagen and after that the economy cars. Trailing all of them are the sort of cars that are officially quadricycles and hated by all. The right of way follows that order and no signaling is required for lesser cars. They are expected to yield and make room for their more noble brethren. It’s a stupid status game, all of it, and it endangers safety.

  Then they do the calculation on the costs to raise the children and decide it’s not economically viable.

  AI sh*t as much as you want, but that AGI they promised is not going to be there.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Next time I swear bro⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Google did something similar. They made search worse on purpose so people would do more searches and see more ads, boosting revenue.

  But yeah, diminishing returns means investor money drying up means squeezing customers and hoping all that putting AI into everything translates to lots of paying customers.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Next time I swear bro⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  They had one trick: scaling. And that trick is getting diminishing returns.

  They’re still speaking, but at much higher vibes.

  The two or three juniors they’ll eventually have to hire to do the job

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Have you encountered this?⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  It probably won’t stop until everybody starts asking for tips, so that those that traditionally receive tips are losing it on tipping everybody else.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨One Angry Man⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Are you sure?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨glamorous dinos⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Dinosaurs had feathers. These guys are related to birds after all. For all we know, they had glorious peacock-like shiny feathers

  A hair of the dog that bit ya

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨I just dont seem to ever learn⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I’ve tweaked my coffee machine (okay, a simple Senseo) so it always gives exactly the right amount so something like this won’t happen every.

  Technically ducks and velociraptors are both dinosaurs, regardless of what they eat.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Inflation Outpaces Wage Growth For Over 40% Of Americans⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  “A wage growth curve that looks more like a middle finger to the vast majority” is how I heard it described today.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨[deleted]⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  And if you open an new chat and ask from the perspective of the wife, chatGPT will totally agree with her. People can be shocked by that suddenly “betrayal and switching sides”, but these days this peace of technology has become a billion dollar cheerleader.

  And the same thing happened in Minot, North Dakota not even a week ago.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Smart option⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  You’re living in a world where people want the quarter pounder over the third-pound-burger because 4 is bigger than 3. Math isn’t people’s strong point.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Florida Attorney General James Uthmeier says criminal “geoengineering and weather modification activities" could have played a role in recent Texas floods⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  A lot of them aren’t aware. They belong to a certain peer group that believes different things and any great that contradict this is an attack on their identity.

  There by is a simple experiment about this. Ask a very simple math problem about shampoo and everybody gets the answer right. Ask the same math problem but say it’s about gun control and see basic logic twisted into pretzels.

  Oof. For a moment I thought these were kidney stones.
