“Elon Musk personally literally killing hundreds of thousands of children”

What’s that high quality news source you got that one from?



First issue is you are conflating investment and subsidies.


Quote the part where I state they are the same


I’ve never worked anywhere where lack of work or projects was the bottleneck. Time, headcount, and budget were always the constraints.

Even in cost centers like IT or ops, there’s usually an endless backlog of work, technical debt, support requests, and improvements that never get prioritized because resources are limited.


Try consulting agencies, or freelancing as external contractor.


And resources are limited because the cost/benefit ratio for adding more resources just isn't there for most of what's on the backlog. (Or at least that's what management thinks.)

Just because the cost/benefit ratio improves a bit in one area doesn't mean that all of a sudden all projects on the backlog become worthwhile.


I'm with you!


Oh look it's jibe's account!


To be clear, the Texas law only applies to mobile app stores, not the operating system, and there is no requirement to scan photo ID, just the vague,” commercially reasonable method of verification.”


"Commercially reasonable" would be something cheap, like ask a chatbot for an opinion.


I don't want to feed my biometrics and identity into AI companies' models so they can train on them for free and then sell facial recognition systems to the government.

He explains the rationale, smaller teams work faster.

we're already seeing that the intelligence tools we’re creating and using, paired with smaller and flatter teams, are enabling a new way of working which fundamentally changes what it means to build and run a company. and that's accelerating rapidly.


This is just rephrasing the same concept.

Claiming than a small group with AI can accomplish more than a large group with AI doesn’t make sense.

More likely the company doesn’t have enough work for the large group.


Have you worked at a big company? It makes sense to me that a small group would be much more productive than a large group, even without AI. Throw in some AI help, and it could be much better.


> It makes sense to me that a small group would be much more productive than a large group

That's not the scenario. The scenario is a large group vs a large group cut into a small group.

The chaos and disruption of slicing 1/2 the company would more than offset any gains. We got people. Not machines. Not everyone adapts so fast. Team work and efficiencies take time.


I do see fewer Square terminals these days, more Toast (and other options too I think).


He’s been building tech companies for 20 years, he sure knew smaller teams move faster when he was hiring thousands of more people during covid
