It's just a midwit being a midwit. Midwits believe that being "well educated" makes them smart and therefore they should tell everyone else what to do.
This is why every "well-educated and civilized" society ends up collapsing back to third-world conditions like the West is today.
Smart people lose interest in social media when they realise they're just arguing with the TV because most people are NPCs who can't do anything but repeat The Current Narrative.
It's become even worse now half the posts are AI-generated and half the rest are paid political grifters. If I want actual discussion I got to private web forums where smart people hang out.
> And these health care jobs, that's good for the next 20 years, but what then?
All that "free healthcare" that Boomers voted themselves is soon going to swallow up the majority of the economy. It's simply unaffordable and those jobs will be automated away or they'll never be hired.
It's impossible to make sensible long-term plans when governments can create or destroy industries overnight.
The good news is that degrees are mostly just a way for colleges to make money and aren't needed for the vast majority of jobs. They're just a tick-box for HR, which is another job that's about to be automated away.
BUT MUH OVERPOPULATION CRISIS!
There's no need for immigrants. Business and government contain huge numbers of useless or actively counter-productive make-work jobs which could be eliminated overnight, leaving millions and millions of people to do the jobs that need to be done and aren't being done.
Donations are pretty much irrelevant at this point.
US "healthcare" is something like 20% of GDP. It could be slashed to maybe 4-5% just by enforcing existing laws, but then you'd see an economic depression as 15% of GDP disappeared overnight and the politicians who did it would never get re-elected.
The cancer has simply grown too big to solve in a democracy and will continue expanding until the economy collapses because no-one is willing to lose the votes that fixing it would cost them.
That's a feature, not a bug. They want to end general-purpose home computing and rent computer time to us instead (if our social credit score is high enough)
Starting to think I should buy another DGX Spark while they're still cheaper than a new car.
If you talk to people who know what they're talking about, it turns out the cost is very similar. As for light delay, it's a few milliseconds; if users can connect directly to the satellites it may be faster than communicating with a data centre on the other side of the US.
The cost ends up being similar assuming mass production of satellites and realistic future launch costs, and you can "just do it" rather than have to waste years fighting through bureaucracy to build them on Earth.
Just as regulation pushed chip manufacturing out of the US, it's now pushing "AI" data centres out. I'm not saying that's a good or bad thing, but it's clearly a thing.
> Like whom?
Uh, smart people? I know a lot of them and we tend not to hang out with midwits.
We knew it was stolen by noon the next day, simply by looking at the stats and alleged voting patterns. It was impossible to legitimately get the results they claimed.
> Sure would help their case if there actually was any evidence.
Like I said...
It's basically the IQ bell-curve meme again. The retards and the smart people can see it was obviously stolen. The midwits continue to shriek "CITATION NEEDED!" because they're not capable of looking at the evidence themselves and have no common sense.
Exactly. Building GPUs is difficult. Building AI chips is much simpler without having to deal with all the graphics parts.
It's "Learn to prmpt" these days, dude.
Note that they've split this into about a dozen different settings which all have to be turned off. So that's a dozen things I have to change on four or five different PCs to disable this new "feature" which I'm sure wasn't added to steal my data, honest guv.
If one person in twelve hates these cameras, he won't be convicted. That's the whole point of jury trials. If everyone loves the cameras he will be.
If you're not part of the solution, you're part of the precipitate.
