“Let me tell my truth about hating everyone you love only to change course once it became inconvenient for me…”

“Self driving AI, swear to god… next year.”

[heavy sigh]

That’s just not true, none of it.

“The US dollar became relevant… because it allowed goods and services to be exchanged globally.”

Wrong. Any currency could enable that (look back at Spanish doubloons) the US dollar filled that niche more recently because coming out of ww2 the us had a relatively untouched territory and a monster of an economy that the rest of the west couldn’t provide otherwise. The US filled an economic vacuum by virtue of good fortune. They then acted over the next century to capitalize on that situation. There’s was nothing special about the dollar that made this a unique achievement.

Oil was sold in OPEC dollars because at the time we made them, not because the dollar was unique or anything compared to all other currencies.

“However as I have predicted debt…”

Again wrong and gonna stop you right there chief. Debt existed well before this issue and other counties will continue to encourage specific levels of debt well after this issue frankly because you again wrong and there’s a much better understanding of economics than what your spouting.

The US isn’t in this position because of the existence of debt they are in this position because of reckless actors (almost always in the GOP) spending a trillion on Iraq, or taking up the mercantilist perspective of a thalidomide baby writ large.

This is the by product of people who don’t understand interwoven economics, don’t add to that ignorance and blame it going in to debt while ignoring that the us debt has existed far longer than any of these issues.

And have no concept of Claude or any other model

Oh now they stressing?

Used to be there were laws against corralling poors and getting them drunk before asking them to vote a specific way…

Feels like a we right back where we started. Might as well abolish the fda and shove immigrants back into the meat grinder cause fuck you…

Whu???

\s

The fuck would you want some sort of that even handed well educated steady hand at the wheel?

Why the fuck would you want that? Compared to now? Cause GeNoCiDe?

^~not an endoresement~^

Cool take the worst crybaby of the DC universe and call him a super spy. Sounds like a win!

“The red coats are coming! The red coats are coming!”

So how does it go down when a moral human is forced to respond to this? Curious to get a scenario where an unelected bureaucrat tells you to ignore congress?

Cool to bring in an un authorized source of knowledge! Fox News was first then Newsmax was interesting….

Suppose not?

Citation?

Yea I can dig it. All the more reason for the mayor to have a backbone and force the issue. And a Streisand effect won’t matter in DC given what you say as the area is saturated. Meanwhile any mention nationally has as much travel as DEI right now. The story should be the fight not capitulation.

Wishful thinking. So far this is cowardice.

No I just apply for jobs there and move on. If you’re reading posts on LinkedIn you’re internetting wrong.

Yea the delta is important. And the mythical man month also counts ramp up time and not people just being generally incompetent.

Been through lots of engineers that can’t make it past ramp up, where everything is unpossible. Had many pms that couldn’t speak past the problem to save their lives so I feel that. But let’s be clear if there is a way forward don’t obscure the value. Don’t talk down. I work with post docs, principal engineers etc and they seem to be able to break down the problem, meanwhile lower level techs keep up with this shit.
