Well the economic framework they have been trained for is collapsing so there’s that


This more like … let’s change the way we code so LLMs and AI coding assist can reduce the error rate and improve reliability


sure bud .. wake the fck up


yeah but they don’t know that competition is for losers, you compete away all the profits while PE firms laugh all the way to the bank.


Ohh university admission another manufactured scam.


exactly that’s how I describe it as well, this world is highly manufactured. If you opt out you are mostly alone so this also serves as a kind of social circle


I get it but control of money is still plenty centralized through control of money supply, gov can direct financial institutions where to allocate money and that also affects your cash; FDR took the gold away 1933 to keep people locked in, we’ll get CBDC soon enough
