Yeah, I just responded the same thing almost verbatim before reading your response. Yes, it's a luxury if you're not well off in the first place.

> But it doesn't make sense to do a job you'd hate. Just be honest, land the job where you're happy.

In this economy it's really a luxury to nitpick about the job when there are bills to pay, mouths to feed, a roof over one's head is a must. The well of have a lot more options regarding this.

Is that for real? After all the Trump wanting to take over Greenland stint? I I should not be surprised if Iran would integrate with Palantir as well.

We don't want this cancer in the US or anywhere else in the world either. Maybe they belong on some libertarian floating islands or Mars or something.

He’s reaping what he saw. Things aren’t looking good for him nor his father, a lesson both of them will painfully learn from. Father career is possibly over.

This reminds me of the time when I got lost when visiting LA about 20 year ago. Asked some guy on the street for help. He gave me directions as he was smirking at me. Turns out he pointed me in the opposite direction from where I was going to and most likely he was just being a dick.

Content farms, whether AI generated or not their incentive is to pump out low quality high output. Most of their content even it involves a human narrator are heavily packed with AI generated media.

AI content including youtube videos, podcasta and such need a stamp that content was AI generated.
