lots of time after work for outdoor activities

Outdoor activities get cancelled more and more because of the heat this year. People not showing up at events because they don’t like a heat stroke. It’s a bit too much summer.

That’s how you get droughts and devastating thunderstorms afterwards.

Yeah, it’s got to be old school text based with at best low quality images. Or use extensions like Text Mode. Modern web is very bloated.

Not only religion. Any institution or organization, no matter what reason it was created, will immediately put continued existence and growth as their first priority.

About the same as a woman getting continuous social media notifications and not being allowed to look at their phone.

It needs AI, but not LLM. A simple neural net for recognising expressions, what is still AI, runs on a phone.

It was having teams that gave a shit about the customer, it was putting the customer above all else, and it was going home feeling like you worked on something useful and good.

That was because there weren’t enough engineers back in the day. Then everybody went into learn to code, visa programs got scaled up, the after covid boom faded and the market became flooded enough to be employer owned.

I’d rather go back to raspberry pi levels of compute with BBS style text only sites.

Yes, because most of the stock market is tied to the few AI companies. It’s the only thing keeping up the facade of a growing economy. The last thing they need is someone showing investors how unimpressive and easily copied the tech is, especially when they’re all looking to go IPO and cash out.

Just pointing out two failures of the trump administration in one comic.

I’ve got no time for grinding at my age. Single player game, some cheat engine, and skip grinding when it gets boring.

I should also note that the mutinies were not violent. They didn’t attack their officers. They often just refused to move or attack.

Simple desertion happens a lot more. Mutiny is also common enough. But this is the cleanest standing aside.

Yeah, that’s the ruthless extrapolation. It’s like plotting the air speed of planes from Wright brothers to Concorde, continue drawing the line going upward and conclude that by 2026 you’ll go from Paris to New York in five minutes. It never works like that.

Seems that way. Next up is licensing fees for printing certain models. Basically they’d like to get as far as when Picard says “Tea, Earl Grey, hot” the replicator says “Brought to you by Lipton. Taste good, feel good. You have 49 remaining replicator credits.”

The one you hear a lot is buying physical precious metals. But keeping that stuff at home is kinda risky and renting a vault isn’t free either.

The whole thing was based on ruthless extrapolation. LLM do better with more compute, so keep throwing compute at it until you’re in free money land. The last hurrah for Silicon Valley as they’re all out if ideas now.

You voted for running the country like a business, you get businesses in your back yard.

does not understand that facebook was successful largely due to luck and timing.

That’s every successful human. It’s a known bias. The classic study was letting people play a rigged game of Monopoly. One random player gets double money among other advantages and wins of course. Afterwards the winner will always tell that it’s because of their strategy or something like that, never they just got luckily.

Actually Indians? Most likely.

Create a division of local government for supervising the police using flock and suddenly the cameras are full of bullet holes.
