Well, don't you see? He simply had too much rationality. When you have rationality up the wazoo, coming out the ears, you just start manipulating people!
It's a feature! You see, it incentivizes spending, speculation, and investing, which are the only important economic activities, and punishes savers, which are miserly cash-hoarders who selfishly want to save for retirement without having to gamble.
Wow great find! This is uncannily familiar, and recalls for me the early, more trusting days of the web where people just downloaded and ran executables from anywhere (people don't do that anymore right?)
I once had a severe emotional reaction to someone taking my stapler. Let's just say I caused a bit of desk shuffling in retaliation. I have no regrets, the place was toxic.
A startup that specializes in tearing down failed startups could tear itself down when they are no longer needed. Like the startups it had liquidated, the liquidator itself will be liquidated, then capital will be available again to start the process anew with a new bubble and new crops of startups. It is the cycle of life, such a beautiful thing to behold.
It's true, when I started counting my steps, I just couldn't stop. Then I had to have data about my sleep and bowel movements, so that I could have data-driven insights about my body. My friends and family got annoyed at my compulsion to gather data about mundane activities. It got so bad, I started doing sexual favors to feed my habit, and I am ashamed to admit I was gathering data while I did it to improve my performance. Folks, be careful when you count steps! It's easy to get hooked and you may end up like me!
Sure, but there are people who have picked up Python, play with openai APIs, then realized how easy it is the glue stuff together, then all hell breaks loose. Branched off into using LLMs locally, or deep learning with fastai, or inspired to learn web dev, or whatever else. They may not get a job or really know what they're doing in the mere months they've put in, but that hasn't been too different from what some code bootcamps have produced. But it sure is empowering to people who, up to this point, haven't had a reason to learn Python.
