I'd guess this is easily overcome in humans with social media.

I feel that companies that are about to IPO are almost certainly fraudulent. You look at Jack Dorsey and Square, with maybe 40% of those user accounts being fraudulent, and stock being sold to little Reddit investors...how could it not be fraudulent? It's almost as if IPO's are now being used to enrich original stockholders who sell and exit instead of raising capital.

I'm a full-stack developer with Microsoft's MVC (model view controller) code pattern which, I think, is one of the most popular code pattern out there. Basically, I can ask ChatGPT to make data models with foreign keys everywhere, and it will:

--Construct the Interface.

--Models, functions, and model inheritances.

--The controllers.

--The views in a not so good manner.

--Several really good unit tests for the Models.

So at the ability of ChatGPT, it probably entirely replaces all the new programmers. Like before if I had 4 programmers doing that stuff, just 1 programmer is now needed.

ChatGPT is very very good indeed. And its ability to parse out natural English into a well-made function with unit tests is really good. It's almost spooky at how good it is at writing even complex function. For instance, I used to use the C# cookbook, pull out a function that sort of came close to what I needed, and spent time figuring out getting it to work. Not anymore; ChatGPT is incredibly good at figuring out what you're saying.

So instead of paying $80,000/year for a new full-stack developer, just pay $20/month for a subscription for a seasoned developer.

My observation is that EV owners almost always charge at home. Charging an EV is the reason why one should buy an EV; one need never again go to a gas station where stupid people are doing stupid things at stupid times.

I don't think suburbanites should get even more handouts.

>The private insurance industry and the private housing market also push people out of their homes. In California, for instance, the large insurers have stopped offering fire insurance to people who live in the riskiest areas, or have raised costs to unaffordable levels, forcing homeowners to reconsider whether they can afford to stay where they are. Many of the places that are most vulnerable to disasters are also experiencing a severe housing shortage, which makes recovery almost impossible.
The federal government has the resources to help address this chaos. Lawmakers could ramp up programs that protect against floods and fires. They could give people money to relocate from vulnerable homes or to find new jobs if climate change makes their old jobs impossible or dangerous. Meanwhile, the White House could take a leading role in planning for future migration, incentivizing growth in places that are less vulnerable and easing the transition away from the riskiest places.

The severe housing shortage is that of zoning laws that make it impossible to build anything but single family detached housing...and now you want us to insure and replace that at great cost?

NIMBYism is just nasty but it is indeed the defining feature of the so-called middle (suburban) class. It's really hard to be sympathetic to the majority of the middle class (ie suburbanites) when they get so many government handouts via zoning laws, infrastructure support via urban sales taxes, HOA that stop anything <but> single family detached housing, public transportation to their neighborhoods, and so on.

I accidentally found that talking about how we can use drones as pollinators for commercial crops works surprisingly well. We've killed off most of the bees in North America via commercial crops and lawns that using drones to pollinate our portions of our crops will almost certainly be necessary in our near future.
