How so? Half the people here have LLM delusion in every thread posted here; more than half of the things going to the frontpage are AI. Just look at hours where Americans are awake.

the things people are comfortable delegating are really surprising, but the emotional reaction here is even more so: people are genuinely moved, it is bizarre

andersonpicoon Mayor of Paris removed parking spaces, reduced the number of cars

Why reclaiming city space is biased but covering the thing in parking lots is not?

their cynicism is perfectly understandable once you correctly identified the demographics (which you did), so I'm not sure why you're holding pessimism against poor people with a bleak future; like it or not that's far more anchored in reality than anything around these parts, as there are far more people with "bottom rung jobs" than software developers and VC investors in the bay area.

andersonpicoon Software engineers should be a little bit cynical
