It’s a shame the book is priced so ridiculously high for an ebook.

It’s interesting, this guy has a Wikipedia page but no achievements on it. It seems like his whole career has just been moving around and bullshitting about how great he is. I kind of expected to actually see an achievement on there, like inventing a programming language or developing something important.

Or alternatively, you fire all your staff for agent subscriptions. Then Anslopic realises they have you by the balls. They ratchet up your contract cost every month until they’ve choked every single bit of shareholder value out of your companies lifeless corpse.

And you can’t get your employees back or go back to how you used to do it, because all of your institutional knowledge is gone.

How many production apps do you think have enough users to justify these huge DB servers?

Unions have nothing to do with career progression…

Because building video games isn’t really work, it’s just fun. I’d do it for half of whatever these guys are being paid.

You don't need to rent someone else's house to test your robot. These people all live in houses.

It's AI slop and he's posted it here entirely as a shilling method to get a job

AI lets me be far more productive, creating far more demand. Before I wouldn’t have made half the stuff I’ve made, because it was too time consuming. The lowered opportunity cost has led to me having more to do.

It doesn’t have this effect for morons. If you don’t know what you’re doing, you can easily slop out some garbage, but you won’t be able to iterate on it or maintain it. These models will produce some really stupid outputs unless you actively fight them. Then if you try and add something new, you’re slapping new layers of slop onto the stinking pile.

I’m not concerned about losing my job with these current slop models. Most employees can barely read and write, they aren’t suddenly going to produce entire systems just because they can slop stuff out.

Nope, they deliberately enshittify the old model right before release to fake the metrics.

What are you talking about? The US is something like 70% of global company value. The whole world revolves around it.

You use Scrivener and then Vellum. Nobody uses word or adobe slop anymore.

Rent goes up every year, your mortgage goes down. 30 years of renting and you’ll have nothing except more renting. With buying, you’ll own a house. That house is now effectively free to live in, as a rentoid still has to pay rent and make repairs to avoid losing their deposit.

What a meaningless slop article.

Obviously they haven’t gone up, all rates are massively down. They’re just a worrier.

It’s a perfect example from the article. “I totally would let my kid leave the house, but [made up danger]”

Why would we listen to him? Even he doesn’t believe in God.

Jesus let the Romans take him. The pope drives around in an armoured car with hundreds of soldiers. Why? After all, he’s the official spokesperson of God. He’s either untouchable, or would be endlessly rewarded with sainthood for being a martyr.

But he obviously doesn’t believe that.

It’s such worthless slop. If you’re too stupid to write an article then why would I want to read it? If I wanted slop I would just generate it myself.

Got a few paragraphs in before I realised this is entirely AI slop. For fucks sake.

Disney makes more from theme parks than from everything else combined. Dinosaurs would be better than anything Disney has ever made.

There is no immigrant visa by that logic. Unless you count the one that costs a million dollars.

Lmao, they funded an illegal spam bot service?

Fuck me. I could do so much with that money, and it just goes to morons who will end up in prison. Oh well. At least my corpse will keep the shareholders warm.

They’re an absolute disaster but I do love that the companies are actually investing in expanding into new things. Shareholders don’t want that, they want cold hard cash. Hence all the buybacks and PE firms destroying companies.

The point to short will be when the Chinese army forms up.

With Ukraine we saw it. It was incredibly obvious. Hilariously the Ukrainians themselves saw the huge army on their border and told everyone it wasn’t going to happen and refused to build any defences. Taiwan will be the same. But the satellites will give everyone enough warning.

It’s hilarious that they’ll spend a trillion renting GPUs instead of just making their own.

Even if you were nowhere near state of the art, being able to produce millions of your own cards every year at cost would save you a lot of money.

Realistically the only uses cases of this are illegal ones. It’s like Tor, you’re either using it because your government made everything illegal, or you’re using it for dark shit.

No they aren’t. Billions drive around every day with minimal collisions. Far more people get raped than hit by cars.

And yet this website is just AI slop. It has that classic Claude smugness to it.

Was this risk analysis just AI slop?

The article literally says they pay to determine the answers given to you.

Lmao imagine using Gemini. We all knew this evil shit was coming. You won’t be able to trust a word it says. They can pay to change the answer it gives you!

“Don’t trust ibuprofen, you need opiates. Your pain sounds really bad.”

Those are accounting packages that can submit your tax return for you automatically based on your figures.

You don’t have to use them, there’s a free electronic form. But it’s easier if you’re using an accounting system to just plug the numbers straight in.
