Basically everyone who works in a regulated industry, or industry that should be does, yes.

I've been paying for Kagi ($10/mo?) now for over a year across both personal and work devices and I don't miss it at all. The only time I still use google is if I need to buy a product and want to see what is available besides what is on amazon, i'll seach "toaster oven" to get inundated with ads (and then 12-48 hours later see ads for toaster oven across all my social medias and youtube). Turning off the googs cold-turkey and then selectively using it, it's been very interesting to see what kind of targeted ads I see.

Jet fuel is set to skyrocket by August and I don't think jet travel will remain affordable for most of society. Looking at the proportion of the airplane that is Economy Plus, or Economy Plus-Plus, about 5%, I don't think there's enough demand for a tremendous amount of supersonic travel between any two cities besides perhaps NYC and LA, and NYC and Atlanta/Miami

Get paid to fight AI
 
Honestly, AI is going to slow hiring, and then companies will stop hiring new positions. I don't think it's going to be an obvious "we are laying off 20% of the company due to AI being amaze-balls". Yeah yeah like 30 very large companies are laying off employees saying it's due to AI but... if you look at their public finances they're flat growth whereas S&P 500 is up 999% (or whatever, it's a lot) so they're saying what they have to say to keep their job as CEO.
 
My prediction is 97% of "job replacement" by AI will simply be the slow march of progress as the one really talented guy on his team, slowly replaces his coworker's workstreams via automation, something that was going to happen anyways, just 10 years later than the current timeline. You can't really legislate that kind of slow motion trainwreck. It's very easy to do quarter after quarter of 499 employees reduction in workforce to avoid layoff public notices etc. And businesses will win in the courts under "public notices for less than 499 employees is excessive burden on businesses" etc etc.

This is what happened
 
LLM trained on security breaches are getting real good at finding tiny security flaws, probably unwinding years or even decades of intentional security flaws for various agencies

There hasn't been a single improvement to android i needed/wanted since my Nexus 5 back in....2013. I just want vanilla android, no changes, particularly to the UI, and security updates, for the next 60 years. I just don't give a fuck about whatever feature the UI/UX designer trying to justify their job, is trying to squeeze into a mature product at this point. Go fuck yourself, UI/UX dude at google. I hate you, you actively make my life worse.

Surprise! It's $24 Billion with a B! That's how much ransom Trump is willing to pay to get himself out of vietnam. If only Israel will stop attacking Lebanon. Which they won't. So this continues on ad infinitum. Welco mm e to the forever war literally everyone told him not to get into, and countless generals took early retirement in protest for. But keep pushing a partisan agenda.

Hey AC how big is the check the big guy is writing to iran? Does it start with a B? Is it more of less than 10? Oh it's more than 20? Does that sound like winning to you? Because I have a bridge in brooklyn to sell you.

The country you're awkwardly putting in quotation marks has the leader of the free world tweeting about his surrender terms for a war he started, so if that's the bar for dysfunctional, uh,

Iran is at war with Israel and the US. There's no version of reality where they open the strait and don't negotiate peace with israel

Nice try, Israel

This is a three sided war, Israel needs to also agree to all the terms including the "don't invade lebanon" one. At this point they have shown zero indication of signing the MOU. Without participation of Israel this thing is pretty much dead in the water.

The US has had price shocks with Iran and Russia and..... there was a flight to quality. To GOLD. The price of bitcoin sat flat, and then shrank, whereas the price of gold keeps going up and up. Bitcoin never really recovered after that. First real test of bitcoin as a store of wealth and it failed. It's never really recovered since then. Gold remains king.
 
I don't actually own any gold and don't have an interest in it, but it's been hilarious to hear people claim bitcoin was digital gold, and when push came to shove, people pushed bitcoin off a cliff, and the price of gold stayed strong, proving all the bitcoin promoters wrong once and for all.

Young kids only understand immediate consequences. Like, seconds to minutes after. Doing something like taking a picture, and then it causing problems hours, or more likely days or weeks later has no impact on their decision making.

^^ Probably the most on-the-nose comment here. There are lots of exceptional people working at high level from unusual backgrounds. Unfortunately he got burn-noticed because he crossed the wrong person/s and was tipped off to local authorities, probably.
