After reading ‘Careless People’ it was clear that they don’t have any moral compass.

Remember how Mark was caught on hot mic saying ‘I wasn’t sure what number you wanted, Mr. President’ after lying about it on camera[0]

>massive abuses in the H-1B program

What does making social media profile public have to do with reducing abuse ?

By this logic there’s lot of abuse in businesses, let’s require every executives social media public. There’s lots of abuses in government … etc

The classic Dunning–Kruger effect

It’s always the people with no experience in a domain thinking any profession can be automated away except theirs.

All the people gloating about more domestic jobs forgot that corporations are now outsourcing more than ever. It’s a lose lose for employees.

Whenever you see media replace it with social media and it will get to the root of the issue.

So if you hear Main Stream Media is a problem then you know Main Steam Social Media is much worse.

This candid photo literally says the opposite. Best case scenario they shook hands and his team just sneaked a photo.

But was it worth it? To burn all good will any upside to generating controversy?

This will be worst for consumers, like DoorDash or Uber eats.

DoorDash takes 15-30% of fees from restaurants so restaurants raise their prices and consumers have to pay service fee and a delivery fee and tip.

Be ready to pay more at sites that have this enabled.

This all true for Twitter ? Plus one giant egomaniac who will silence anyone he wants.

> I don't understand how Bluesky is going going to continue to exist past 2026, based on the sharply declining usage, their headcount, and the amount of funding they've taken.

Do you have any data to back this up?

Also famously twitter is losing value and advertisers and users still it’s not stopped twitter from existing

Regarding engagement doesn’t twitter have lot more low quality engagement vs Bkuesky

I am sure people understand that H-1B issues are just red herring. Outsourcing is the real issue that needs to be talked more.

It’s the same trend of executives claiming RTO increases user productivity according to their data but could never show the data.

Our new CTO was remarking that our engineering teams AI spend is too low. I believe we have already committed a lot of money but only using 5% of the subscription.

This is likely why there is a lot of push from the top. They have already committed the money now having to justify it.

Just ask yourself if Tesla cannot be autonomous in their own merely 2 mile long tunnel with only trained teslas drivers how can you believe any other promises ?

At this rate it’s better to start a company and get aquihired vs applying and getting hired.

Seems like OpenAI speed ran through the Facebook phase and are out of ideas

Its interesting to see the naiveté of every professional who thinks LLMs won’t replace their profession but it can totally replace the other one that they are not an expert in.

It’s funny your comment history says otherwise. In fact you engage defensively about these posts when they support your political view. Seems like you flag content that doesn’t align with your views
