While I sort of agree with you that that is his angle, service jobs that aren’t easily automatable will continue to climb in the “job stability and pay rate” category until the world figures out how to deal with Baumol’s Cost Disease:

Just in time for the Steam Machine and Steam Frame!
Right, Valve? Right?
…any day now…


The AI paradox: It’s both original (hallucinating) and plagiarizing (copying things, word-for-word).

Even if I find a clue, how will I know? I’ve yet to hear a notification sound nor do I have a cute little fairy whispering things in my ear 🤷
For all I know, I could’ve walked past thousands of clues throughout my life. I haven’t given up solving the mystery, though!


Careful: Random cats make love when they find cozy, secret places. This could be an ominous sign of things to come.


7.7 square mile nation that’s 80% uninhabitable due to mining phosphates with approximately 10,000 people in the middle of nowhere finally makes the news again after decades of nothing happening.


This is why open source AI is necessary!


If your language requires an IDE to show you WTF is going on in the code, it’s a bad language.
Given, there’s ways to write poor code in any language, but some are much, much worse than others. Java and JavaScript being the kings of that kind of thing.
Some day, AI assisted coding will become so intelligent that it will look at your average “enterprise” Java code and ask the user, “WTF were they even trying to do here?” Which is the only correct response a lot of the time.


Thank you for posting this comment. I came here to write the exact same thing and now I don’t have to!

There is a story people tell about AI regulation, and it goes like this: the technology is moving too fast, governments can’t keep up, regulators are overwhelmed, and by the time anyone writes a law the thing they’re trying to regulate has already evolved into something else entirely.
No. That’s not the story people are telling about AI regulation. It goes like this:
If we regulate AI, that will give an advantage to AI companies in other countries. They will surpass our AI capabilities and leave us in the technological dust.
There’s a related story:
If we regulate AI, we’re likely to create more problems because Boomers don’t understand technology.


Why just Ottowa? Give every state and every citizen the right!
I mean, what better way to give thanks to Canada’s core of hackers?


Everyone wants to access Netflix, YouTube, Prime Video, etc through their TV interface and I just don’t get it. The best experience is when you hook up a PC to your TV… not some TV-centric Android OS or Roku’s thing.
Install Kubuntu on some old PC with a GPU that can handle 4K @60Hz and you’re good to go. KDE and Firefox let you crank up the zoom so everything’s easy to read and it even has HDR support (though I prefer going without it… Old person eyes).
It’s such a vastly superior experience. Not only do you get the usual stuff, you can use a real keyboard to type into that search bar. You can also access all those pirate streaming sites and do normal PC stuff like play games.


I browse “All” most of the time and the Femcel Memes show up pretty regularly. It’s not like this gif though. It’s more like watching a super interesting science experiment.
“Ah, yes. I see. I see. How interesting!”
My scientific notes so far:


So basically, Mexico City is a sunk cost.


The flaws are immeasurable?

powerful cannabis
Oh yeah? Is it over 9000?
As opposed to the weak cannabis that can only bench 50lbs.


Not to be confused with people who identify as grammar. There/they’re/their


Poor Bangladesh. Not only are they about to be physically under water, their banks are about to be under water too.
The chances this fixes it are… Remote.
