581TypeScript and Windows 11 apologist. Hated cars before it was cool. Libertarian hater.
I know that I know nothing.
All of my posts are official government opinions and those of your employer.

I do not think the generative so-called "artificial intelligence" bubble is that good for basically anyone not already on the top already but I do not understand the one drop rule that people have established that if an LLM has ever been on the same computer whatsoever the software is immediately and permanently persona non grata

The fact that so-called "prediction markets" (techbro for casino) welcome and basically require insider trading to be the"most accurate" is the most definitive proof they should never exist

The Framework Laptop 13 Pro looks pretty cool, now that my (dead) laptop is finally in my possession again I'm probably going to buy a new main board (now on discount so that's neat) and maybe buy the pro upgrade chassis whenever it comes out

I find it funny that the American ambassador to France is not allowed to talk to any members of the French government because he made some stupid comment when some hardcore right wing loser got beat to death by hardcore left wing losers and when the French government demanded he meet with them to tell him to shut up he just didn't bother attending
Also he (the ambassador) got pardoned for doing all sorts of fraud but is the president's daughter's husband's father so crime is legal

They don't tell you this but the freaks that post on the Internet all of the time (including myself) are not the people you would see if you actually go outside, if you asked most people their opinion on some hyper specific Internet thing they won't care they just want to exist.
I will conclude this by saying that social media, by and large, ESPECIALLY when powered by algorithmic recommendations, needs to be destroyed

If someone offers you a guaranteed 10+% return on investment, they are TELLING THE TRUTH. You should give them ALL of your money. There is absolutely no way it can fail miserably and you lose everything

As someone who has feelers in various communities I can say absolutely no one ever knows what anyone outside their particular community actually thinks
