Hey, you just solved the Hormuz Conundrum, congratulations! Both sides get a better deal than Obama's deal, so can now brag and move on with life.

Maybe the mathies will enter our field and force the industry to factor out all the repetitious bloat found in current stacks. All that repetitious verbose shit just cannot be the pinnacle of software development, I'll bet my Vulcan wanker on it (a transplant). It might require new programming languages, but so be it! Or burning the damned DOM?

Kind of like going from Perl to Java?

Politicians already encroached on that.

If our luck keeps up, Hillary has Putin's emails!

Has anyone here done first-hand testing?

Now you got me curious, are there?

But they smell like stale Cheese-Whiz

"Cool a bit"? If the general truth about the subsidizing of prices gets out, we are looking at a big bubble burst at least as bad as the dot-com poppage.

Investor funds and market-share-fights have kept AI prices low or free, but of course that can't last forever. I suspect one prominent but stressed AI company will spill the beans about fake pricing ("we all do it!"), putting pressure on the rest to prove that claim is false, which they'll fail, spooking investors, ending the run, and triggering a recession.

All those job ads asking 7 years of experience in a product that's only been out 3 are real! Illegal pet-eating time-travelers are working multiple jobs in parallel using Flux Capacitors smuggled from Uyghur child labor camps in Jiiihna!

Seriously, though, I met a couple of coders who admitted they lie on their resumes about stack experience and even volunteered tips on how to fake it. Lying makes me even more nervous during interviews such that I prefer to avoid it. I don't have the calm and cool genes to pull it off, Sydney Sweeney got all those.

Work-from-home immigrant AI workers are eating the pet-bots! I saw it on TV!

Even if this is somehow honest, it risks bad P/R and fuels conspiracy chatter. I can see Google donating to a general environmental fund, but they shouldn't run specific programs. Google should stay in its lane.

Squeak squeak!

Just get corn-on-the-cob, it will self-pop after this mess.

Careful what you wish for, the plutocrats always find a way to make us plebeians bail them out.
