  Yes, and you can thank private equity for it.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Trying to reverse climate change won’t save us, scientists warn⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  currently depends on having a working-age population that is large enough to support the non-working population

  This is only a problem if production does not increase dramatically, as it has for the last century. The reason it feels like there are insufficient working people is because parasites siphon from the resource distribution between more and more productive workers and their non working counterparts

  Confidence is indistinguishable from correctness if you lack competence and experience. Now in addition to the competent and experienced having to interpret the requirements and do the work, they must also sift through half baked AI solutions.

  I wouldn’t hire someone who was too lazy to proofread over someone who wasn’t; would you?

  Since “would you?” is incomplete, a comma would be correct here rather than a semicolon.

  South Florida is full of these small cinder block houses because everything else gets wrecked and these survive. Sure, they might need some new roof sections, and maybe the drywall cut 4ft from the floor, but porcelain tiles on a concrete slab with cinder block walls is going to last until the rebar rots.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What’s the most overhyped tech trend right now?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Id go so far as to say SaaS in general. Small startups are paying $5000/month to send emails and we’ve come to the point where inboxes are monopolized and if you don’t pay up to a cloud provider your emails end up in spam.

  Take this and repeat for everything. Monopolize, ratchet up the costs, profit.

  I live in an area of the country where mosquitoes are a year round nuisance. Think mangroves and tropical weather. Thermacell devices actually work, unlike just about every other device out there.

  Hey this is vanishingly unlikely. We don’t eat many turnips in the US.
