We are nearing the end of the “first ones free” stage. AI companies have been undercharging since they started. Tokens are costing them nearly 10x what they’re selling them for, on the backs of VC funding. Those investors want their money. A lot of cross company deals as well where investment is merely trading for services. Like Microsoft’s investment in OpenAI. That was mostly a trade for computer resources that made the balance sheet look better. It’s going to get ugly.

Say more. I need to convince my friend to do this. I just bought a Steam deck after seeing his garbage os (for a handheld at least). Love to hear more about how it's working for ya? Especially if you have any frame of reference between it and Steam deck performance first hand.

Proton is not perfect but damn is it ever good. Been using *NIX since the '90s when installing a NIC was a chore. I am just glad I got to see something as mainstream as Steam and Proton for gaming.

It’s usually referred to as just CSE. Canadian Security Establishment.

Guestimate, moist, polyester, synergy, influencer. I can’t decide the top of that bottom list.

Lmao. I have bookmarked this comment for the next time my wife tells me "no bad ideas", you legend. You showed her.

This article tracks. I lose at least half a day of productivity on the 2 days / week I’m required to be in office. That commute time is spent in early meetings with colleagues in different time zones. I won’t attend meetings from my car or the train. New boss said don’t come in unless you want to or there’s a team event. We are going to get along methinks.

I lowkey owe Musk for finding my way here. I was on Reddit and there was a post about his trillion dollar milestone. I posted a comment…”Is it time to eat him yet?”. And got my 10 year old account perma banned. I like it much better here already. So…IS it time to eat him yet? I guess you do so at risk of getting very high when he “kicks in”.
