he's saying the dough is like paper

nah its whitelabelling AI credits. You build an API connector, charge 3x for a credit and sell it to a business.

Guy was asking for the rest of the story. Not really that interesting: finished out a month at that company as "handover," got a month severance pay, used those two months to look for a new job. Got one.

well I mean theres the House of Lords, and the Royal Family,

I gigged with Alex Edelman, he's a nice dude.

I mean you ever see The Wire? In the first season the "heroes" beat the shit out of bystanders so much a child loses an eye. They then go on to solve murders.

in the US you get automated messages that blow up your phone when a child is involved in a crime near you.

I turn mine off.

My dad just got diagnosed with cancer, I just bought a house, I was at a conference in San Francisco and my boss cornered me before the flight home saying i was being laid off. They literally don't care.

The mean earnings for OF is $150/month. Meaning it's likely there's a vast majority of people earning $50-100/month, and a vast minority earning $100k/month.

With props, camera, lighting, editing "costuming" etc, you probably lose money doing it.

to me, a non American, it reads just how America is was and will be.

Americans love guns and extra judicial killings. Their top cultural hits are about cops who break laws, or good men who are driven to kill. Breaking Bad, The Wire, The Sopranos, Westerns, cyberpunk, buddy cop movies, Die Hard...

Tommy Robinson is a literal fucking thug. Musk wouldn't last 5 fucking minutes in a Milwall footy brawl

I won't say AI doesn't have its edgecase uses, and I know people sneer at "prompt engineering" - but you really gotta put as much if not more effort into the prompt as it would to make a dumb if-case machine.

Several paragraphs explaining and contextualizing the AI's role, then the task at hand, then how you want the output to be, and any additional input. It should be at least 10 substantial paragraphs - but even then you've probably not got a bunch of checks for edgecases, errors, formatting, malicious intent from the user...

It's a less secure, less specific, less technical, higher risk, higher variable, untrustworthy "programming language" interface that enveigles and abstracts the interaction with the data and processors. It is not a person.

ah back in my day we didn't need an app or to even be out to get the shit kicked out of us for being gay

funnily enough my bullies knew better I was gay than I did

to be fair to georgia, the bottom is shaped like that because of a river, I assume thats the case for AL as well

the more and less you understand about the universe, the more and less it does and does not give a shit and makes more and less sense.

pick up sticks

the arts

tech has never been that friendly to the arts, tbh.

I disagree that tech is more left wing, a lot of them are very religious - evangelical or Mormon or believe in ultra capitalistic Ayn Rand fantasies.
