Vast majority of the CS grads won't even need to use most of what theyre taught, when they finally land a job. Facts are that most of the jobs available are the jobs that you call "cushy tech jobs". Where you can go by with having a 2-3 year long programming focused schooling.

Only quite niche type of tech jobs today require exactly what CS teaches.

Would removing your car battery and taking it in over night help? (Gas car)

Straw man much?

If you want to make your software pay-to-use on a monthly basis, that is your perogative. But your 1 million users will quickly become 0 users.

No one would buy tables from those carpenters...

Perhaps you should understand basic market before making asinine statements such as, "But maybe the opinions of rent seekers don't always result in the best for economy and society."

If you create something and I take that and I end up earning money off your work, without compensating you.. Then that is in fact morally wrong. It really isn't harder than that.

Does genetic data count as personal information? Just wondering as a EU citizen.

Funny how when it comes to EU themselves, it OK to skimp on the security. But when it us, we have to abide by 1000x different EN certs, that are either outdated, unreasonable or unnecessary. In general, I am losing my trust and positive view on EU..

I just, 2 days ago, starting to experience slight discomfort in the liver/kidney area. The feeling was very similar to how it was with my gallbladder. At least until it was removed. I am totally a ticking time bomb. So, yes.. please bring on even better treatments.

I guess it depends what you would define as rich. If you do not come up with some new hot thing and only count your pay. Then the article is quite right. People really rarely get rich from wage.

Why would you use tools/olatforms that was clearly made for enterprise as non-enterprise. Plenty of free tools and platforms around. Github for an example has really good F2U workflows.

I thought Twitter wasn't keeping bots data according to what they said when Elon Musk accused them to withholding data? How'd they know it is "worse than ever".

I am not surprised at all. All major tech companies are at an arms race at the moment. Everyone wants to create the new thing and AI is the hip thing right now, with good reason. X, isn't necessary a tech company in the same ballpark as Amazon, Google and Meta. But have significant backing to able to create something. I wouldn't be surprised if other companies start changing their terms to allow them to phish data for AI training.
