@izakaminska what happens when china starts importing again? and what happens when they want to fill it back up? there's no sign of it opening anytime soon...
@JacobRobinsonJD@paulg mostly fluff compared to previous eras of engineering and in any case life was better pre internet.
Besides my point though - who gives musk, karp, altman etc the moral authority to opine on society. they are fucking annoying...
@JacobRobinsonJD@paulg Obviously, you work in that world. Why do tech leaders these days feel the need to opine on everything? the great engineers of the past felt no need to do so. AI will be looked back on as the greatest misallocation of capital in human history, I'm sure...a sick system
@paulg@JacobRobinsonJD why do people from SF/tech land always think they have wisdom to impart on the rest of us. in the net, I think their output has been negative for humanity. couldn't give a monkeys about facebook, doordash etc. it's mostly grift, the latest example being AI...
