It's true, we never had outages before the cloud. Yet another CSP innovation.

As I noted to another in here, I don't get tired until about 100 hours a week, and have a completely respectable work life balance.

LOL. Over 14 hours a day, 7 days a week, huh? Don't get tired before then, and have a completely "respectable" work life balance? "Ability, drive, and professionalism." What a hero.

Ah, well, the abyss awaits you, too.

They might want to start with that low-performing employee who tossed away over $50 billion over the last 4 years on a metaverse bet that virtually (ha!) nobody gives a crap about.

A metaverse that (at least initially) was touted as the future of work. Oh, the irony!

We're an empire now, and when we act, we create our own reality. And while you're studying that reality—judiciously, as you will—we'll act again, creating other new realities, which you can study too, and that's how things will sort out.

Long hours might work for brick-laying, but not for anything that requires intellectual thought.

I don't want to see people hurt,

Well of course you don't!

but I simultaneously want to see a Hollywood-style climate apocalypse - a nice rapid melt that dumps all of Antarctica's ice in the ocean within my lifetime.

Oops, never mind. I guess you might after all, given that there are already vast amounts of disaster porn in book and movie form to satisfy this sort of weird fetish. The only missing element there would be ... actual consequences?

Human psychology is weird.

More boring than weird. It's called the banality of evil for a reason.
