6 man-months is a tiny project by standards of companies like Google.

A bubble bursting might stop plowing further hundreds of billions into data centers and redirect that money into something with more societal use.

Racism is believing that people can be divided into races (spoiler alert: races don't exist, ask a scientist) and, not only that, but also than some of those made up races are better than others.

I disabled all animations in iOS. I don't need the distraction anyway. I hope they don't take away this function in future releases..

There are always ambitious people who are not happy to be paid as much as everyone else. In capitalism, they start companies or climb career ladders in existing ones. In communism, they join the communist party, where (since the party has totalitarian power over the country) it's trivial for them to just assign unproportionately large share of the pie to themselves - the difficult part is winning at politics game to attain sufficient power within the party. Basically total dysfunction that has nothing to do with productive society - that's why every single one implementation of communism had poor results and lead to people overthrowing it one way or another.

Uber presumably needs a ton of personel in each country that handles all the driver-related paperwork etc.

Mature businesses like e.g. tire or appliances manufacturers still have some R&D trying to make their products better.

Also, FPS is a done to death concept that has plenty of repos for LLMs to take snippets from. A better test would be trying to vibe-coding an original game (e.g. something like Miegacure) and see how well LLM does, even when you give it well-defined goal and constraints. My guess is that would fail miserably.

They probably are, but only if you try new games, new maps, new strategies constantly - anything to get your brain plasticity working. Killing monsters in Diablo for 10 years in a row probably hastens the decline if anything.

Dogs are Bayesian thinkers.

Are you saying they aren’t? Then why in CS majors there are usually 5-10 men for every woman?

It’s merely what’s wrong with Silicon Valley investment culture. 99% of the world operates more sanely.

The are largely concentrated around Moscow to defend the "brain" of the country, as well as personally Putin himself.

Drone units require good eyesight, reflexes, spatial orientation etc. FPS gamers are the best match, not coders.

I think the issue in physical work are mainly repeated strain on joints and back. Human body was not built to endure so much repeated strain.
