Before that it was ‘big data’. remember that?
every 5 or so years the media needs some new tech to hype up to get people paranoid

Exactly. It will lead to improved automation for industrial processes but it won’t ever be a consumer tech other than improving your siri results.
It won’t replace jobs, anymore than industrial robots in factories replace them.
‘big data’ ‘crypto’ etc.
AI is just the next ‘big thing’ that amounts to nothing. 90% of what anyone says in the press/media is total nonsense. And most AI researchers are downplaying the hype because they know it’s all bullshit and AI will ultimately not be a major change anymore than navigation systems in cars was. It is merely convenience and those that ‘rely’ on it will end up in trouble.
It’s a complementary technology, not a revolution.
Yeah, I am shocked how many people regard exercising their autonomy as a punishment rather than a privilege, and they seem to genuinely hate it and want someone to tell them what to do with their life and what to think.
People on the board are shit at their jobs because most boards are full of people who don’t ever work at the company. They exterior consultants for the most part. Every business I have worked for, the board was a bunch of wealthy folks who showed up like 1-2x a year for the board meetings, but otherwise had zero idea what anyone did or who anyone was other than the C-suite.
Boston. Indies open at 8am and close at 2pm. Starbucks is open like 6am-9pm. If I want a coffee at 3pm I am stuck with Starbucks or Dunkin Donuts. Indies can’t afford to be open an extra 7 hours where they are doing very little business.
i wish more places served moka, but they don’t.
I don’t understand why people like Starbucks so much. Their coffee is nasty and so is their food. But people are addicted to it. All my relatives have the app and spend like $50+ a week there.
Only reason I ever go is because I’m roadtripping at 6am and it’s the only place open that early. The indie coffee shops don’t open until 8am.
fountain pens and art stuff. nope. I’m too busy now with way more responsibilites. got two promotions and two pets and a side business now. don’t have hours of downtime during wfh like i did in 20/21. Now I have about $500 in pens that i only use to sign check and a few other things.
yeah, cats bury their shit. they don’t shit on grass and leave it exposed.
only time cats shit in the open is to prove a point. OP probably pissed off this cat
airsoft guns are a thing. they are what is used during targeting competitions
we don’t need to do that. we just need to restrict stuff like 50 round magazines.
a lot hard to kill 50 people if your gun only holds 5 bullets.
wtf are you talking about
car manufactures are legally accountable to meet minimum safety standards for new vehicles. they have been sued over it.
Microsoft already had this trial back in the 2001.
speak for yourself. in my city people shame you for not tipping 30%.
yes. nightlight in my city is predominantly wealthy people going out every other night. i go out like a few times a month and people think i’m a weirdo/shut in. i used to go out more, but it was way cheaper to go out back then.
i can’t be dropping $500 in drinks alone every week. but for a lot of people in my city that’s entirely normal.
yeah i’m not even counting tipping. that shit is insane. lots of places in my city now want a 20% tip, and a 5-10% fee. on top of a 9% tax. So basically your meal is now 35-40% more than the prices in the menu. and it’s expect at literally every joint now, take out and coffee joints too.
it’s just not worth it. for that kind of pricing I’m better off just getting delivery. which is what i do now. ubereats is a 20% tip and like a $5 delivery fee. it’s cheaper and i don’t have to deal with slow/rude service and other customers being loud and obnoxious.
speak for yourself. same here. i still go to concerts and come home at 1am. at least concerts are still affordable and like 20 bucks.
not even a walmart. where i live it’s a neiman marcus. if you don’t have $2000 to drop on a single coat, GTFO.
where i live dudes have their own place and car.
however, they don’t have a waterfront condo and 100K car, so therefore they are ‘inadequate’ or ‘unsuccessful’ according to most single women if you ask them. always their #1 complaint. and the #2 is how ‘successful’ men only use them for sex. the irony is lost on them.
But I’m dating in my 30s.
