I always say that our school gets us our first job, then that gets us our next job, and so on.

But having a college degree on your CV does make a difference. Often, it's the HR screeners that are impressed with it; not the techs. I found that I usually got past the screeners, but the techs didn't like me. The educational creds didn't have anything to do with that. It was the lack of "cultural fit."

The company I worked for, was a top-tier Japanese photographic equipment manufacturer. The Japanese are tough taskmasters. You don't last almost 27 years at a joint like that, on brown-nosing and jargon.

But since I accepted my lot, I have been happier n' a pig in shit. I get to do code, seven days a week, ship regularly, and not have managers screwing up the party. Never knew it could be this good.

Kids these days aren't learning Malbolge as their first language and it really shows.

I loved Basic, then VisualBasic, then C, and then Perl... and after Perl, I've never really found it challenging to learn a new language. After almost a year of working on some cgi script (gossamer threads, I think?) I had this alarming realization that I did not understand the context of a block of code I seemed to spend most of my time editing. It was a multi-page regular expression. I was (and am still) pretty naive to how the language is implemented or even parsed, and I find it most interesting how we can write in languages with the barest understanding of their underlying details. I'm at that point with a lisp, occasionally catching glimpses below the surface, but now with decades of diving deep and in other languages. Sometimes I think it might be fun to return to Perl, but when I read modern Perl, it seems to bear such little resemblance to the code of 25 years ago.

Regarding point (2), My brother told me that openai had some exclusive contracts with companies where they could only use openai api and I don't think that they would really switch now, because I think switching would be hard.

Regarding point (1), OpenAI created 2 amazing trends which (though I hate OpenAI, Should be called ClosedAI) took internet by wild

First when chatgpt 3 was launched

And now when image ability of chatgpt was launched with the ghibli trend.

So Honestly, I had seen so many comments on r/localllama saying that openai has become just an infrastructure company or something and then openai dropped the new image update and now they are commenting about local ai's by pasting images generated by that new chatgpt ...

I am not sure but see, google makes most of its money using advertising & data basically.

I wouldn't be surprised if we started seeing sudden shifts of AI or started getting ads in AI somehow too.., because people trust AI and its a landmine of money really...

So OpenAI's 27x evaluation without any thought of ads or some data selling isn't that bad because they still got some nice engineers. The only Disgrace is the fact that they went from a non profit to an american psycho esque corporation saying "well OUR AI will take over jobs, but it was good for the shareholders in the short term though"

We are still at the very start of seeing AI integrated into products and industry use cases. Even if AI capabilities stop improving and Altman's dreams of replacing workers don't pan out there is enormous economic potential here.

How much of that OpenAI can capture is an interesting question. But right now APIs for open-source models are commoditized while similarly capable proprietary models can charge ~3x the price. If the flagship models run on similar margins the API offering has decent profit margins. And if we stay in a triopoly (Anthropic, Mistral, OpenAI) it's certainly possible that profits stay high. It wouldn't be the first industry where that happens

> Every elected Democrat I know is willing to enact those if Citizens United is overruled.

I don't want to be rude, but I don't believe you. I also have seen the polling and the country does not believe it as a whole. Democratic voters also don't believe it either. If you personally have an income >150K you are likely completely insulated from real Americans. The perception is that the Democrats care more about Israel and their donors than the country. Only 8 percent of Democrats are supportive of Israel but almost 90% of Dem senators are (I made this number up, the rest are real).

edit: the Republicans are publicly grifting, lest you think I like the Republicans. My overarching point is that ~60% of American's don't own homes and are completely uninvested in this country. They have completely given up, or are in a state of giving up. The Republicans and Democrats are extremely vile reptilian grifters who sold out this country.

Your observation is yours, but it isn't mine and many others.

I grew up in a Dem household but I don't vote dem because my parents did or because I'm a party member (I'm not), it's because the lesser of the two evils is almost always the blue side.

And this was before the GOP literally became a cult. Now it's not even a choice.

Didn't OpenAI's last raise in March value them at $300B [1]?

Crunchbase appears to list it as $157B [2], but I seem to find the other terms & valuations more commonly.

> If you knew that the total cost of the meal

That's the crux of it. All surcharges are scams designed to trick the customer into thinking the meal is priced lower than it is. Sales tax not built into menu prices is a scam that the government is at fault for allowing. All other surcharges including the socially-obligatory tip and the scummy "health care surcharges" common in California, are scams that the restaurant is choosing to do. All of these are insulting.

It's no different than telling women I'm 6' and then when they meet me revealing that's only when I'm wearing cowboy boots and a big hat.

I sort of fear tribalism will typically win more and more in the future. There’s a large enough population in the conservative end that’s fine with tribalism. And while there’s certainly a fair share of it on the democratic side, the democratic side tends to lure in educated and anti-authoritarian folks who question things, formulate opinions outside the pack, and will have more difficult electing a cohesive candidate. Meanwhile the Conservative Party targeting religious folks already have a group of people who tend to be OK with just me following whatever it’s told to them without question or with little question.

We just launched GPU-powered Points of Presence in Paris, bringing sub-200ms round-trip times for conversational AI to European users.

Why this matters for Europe: • **Latency-critical use cases**: Customer service, telehealth, real-time translation - all need <200ms for natural conversation flow • **GDPR compliance**: Data processed within EU borders, full regulatory compliance • **Local language optimization**: Better performance for European languages and accents • **Business continuity**: No more routing voice AI through US servers Technical details: • Sub-200ms round-trip time from major EU cities • GPU infrastructure optimized for real-time voice processing • Pricing: $0.05/minute for conversational AI Would love feedback from European developers, what voice AI use cases have you been waiting to build?

To be clear, I don't defend it. I'm mildly against it. Unfortunately I don't in it's at the root of entitled customer behavior in the States, I think there's a deeper cultural contempt for service workers. You'll see similar behavior towards workers who aren't tipped but who provide some sort of face-to-face service, like cashiers and teachers.

> But it is a middle ground between the heavier burden of proof and long process used by the legal system, and the lack of usually any proof and visceral reaction of mob mentality.

Where do you see the line between community self-policing and mob justice? I agree that community members often have information about each other, but I think it's often low-grade and commingled with vague popularity and "office politics". I interpreted the situation in TFA to be that many people signed the letter who had little information either way.

>> I think TFA makes a strong case that the impact here is big.

> If we choose to believe him.

Here I was only talking about the impact it had on him, not whether or not he was guilty of something. I think we can believe that it had a big impact on him. Or do you suspect that he is exaggerating for effect?

Maybe before you judge someone you should know the facts. They have basically done that, per the below statement by the rest of the family. I have a mentally ill family member and they are enormously difficult and are their own worst enemy and refuse help; there’s a reason many end up homeless.

“Our family loves Annie and is very concerned about her well-being. Caring for a family member who faces mental health challenges is incredibly difficult. We know many families facing similar struggles understand this well.Over the years, we've tried in many ways to support Annie and help her find stability, following professional advice on how to be supportive without enabling harmful behaviors. To give a sense of our efforts, we have given her monthly financial support, directly paid her bills, covered her rent, helped her find employment opportunities, attempted to get her medical help, and have offered to buy her a house through a trust (so that she would have a secure place to live, but not be able to sell it immediately). Via our late father's estate, Annie receives monthly financial support, which we expect to continue for the rest of her life. Despite this, Annie continues to demand more money from us. In this vein, Annie has made deeply hurtful and entirely untrue claims about our family, and especially Sam. We've chosen not to respond publicly, out of respect for her privacy and our own. However, she has now taken legal action against Sam, and we feel we have no choice but to address this. Over the years, she has accused members of our family of improperly withholding our father's 401k funds, hacking her wife, and "shadowbanning" her from various websites including ChatGPT, Twitter, and more. The worst allegation she has made is that she was sexually abused by Sam as a child (she has also claimed instances of sexual abuse from others). Her claims have evolved drastically over time. Newly for this lawsuit, they now include allegations of incidents where Sam was over 18. All of these claims are utterly untrue. This situation causes immense pain to our entire family. It is especially gut-wrenching when she refuses conventional treatment and lashes out at family members who are genuinely trying to help. We ask for understanding and compassion from everyone as we continue to support Annie in the best way we can. We sincerely hope she finds the stability and peace she's been searching for. -Connie, Sam, Max, and Jack”
