I wish more people would hold Sam Altman’s feet to the fire, hold him to some semblance of accountability. Because the man has made an entire career of failing upwards, from launching a short lived startup that imploded, to suddenly becoming president of ycombinator, to suddenly being worth billions of dollars, and literally paying people in the third world (with monopoly money, of course) for their eyeballs

Oh and there’s the whole thing where he might have molested his kid sister, which is always seemingly glossed over

Even Ed Zitron, who isn’t afraid to go after someone (see his articles about the guy who destroyed Google search) seems to handle Sam with kid gloves

But now who will donate pretend coats for the virtually needy?!

Make me

You should stop calling yourself an engineer unless you drive a train

You’re a moron if you use this.

But certainly not coincidental

It’s not a now thing. It’s already here. My thermostat, sprinkler controller, and rice cooker all run Android

And if that public company has stock in the toilet it’s worth fuck all to unload

Federated directories. We’re going back to Yahoo like it’s 1995

And it’s still worse than a picture of a hill in Sonoma

Replace the CEO with an AI. They’re both good at lying and telling people what they want to hear, until they get caught

Alexa and Google home came out nearly a decade ago

I quite like kagis universal summarizer, for example. It let’s me know if a long ass YouTube video is worth watching

So you want Kagi

On the subreddits I moderated, I used a big regexp to preemptively filter their comments

Letting one through was a rare event

How about they cut executive pay instead of fucking the rank and file over

Apologies are free and valueless

But you don’t have to go sketchy off brand. You can get Ubiquiti if you want a really good system, or eufy or reolink if you don’t want to muck about with the sysadmin stuff Ubiquiti requires

Can we start with the CEOs? Pretty sure shatGPT can do their jobs easily

Best thing Elon has ever done right here

Apple has done this many times before. Over even more frivolous patents (i.e. a glossy black rectangle)

They made their bed, now they have to lie in it
