On the flip side, amazon could increase every employees wage by 30% and still show a 10B in profit for FY2025

Thank you. The important part is zeroing out taxes on the bottom half. Best way to put money in someone’s pocket is to not take it out in the first place. Bottom half is only 3% of total tax revenue. But it’s very meaningful to that person. Zero it out.

@paulg I’ve been sending emails as bullet point lists for years. The success rate over paragraphs of people reading and understanding your message is massive.

Misreading the room somewhat

I have so much gratitude to people who wrote extremely complex software character-by-character. It already feels difficult to remember how much effort it really took.

Thank you for getting us to this point.

[Paul Ashby @ashbyp]

Having spent a couple of weeks building with the latest agents I am amazed, like everyone else, at where the tools are compared to a year ago.

But I can't help thinking that the life of software engineers is going to be very depressing, when all we do is talk to bots all day.
