  I have been part of a mass tech leadership exodus at a company where the CEO wants everything to be AI. They have lost 5 out of 8 of their director/VP/Exec leaders in the last 3 months, not to mention all the actual talent abandoning ship.

  The CEO really believes that all of his pesky employees who he hates will be full replaced by cheap AI agents this year. He’s going to be lucky to continue to keep processing orders in a few months the way it’s going. He should be panicked, but I think instead he’s doing a lot of coke.

  Fun fact: AI doesn’t know what is or isn’t true. They only know what is most likely to seem true. You can’t make it stop lying. You just can’t, because it fundamentally doesn’t understand the difference between a lie and truth.

  Now picture the people saying “We can replace our trainable, knowledgeable people with this”. lol ok.

  This isn’t a surprise to anyone except fucking idiots who can’t tell the difference between actual technology and bullshit peddlers.

  The best time to switch was 10 years ago. The second best time to switch is right now.

  Yeah, I try jumping around. Some are better than others, but none are great.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨VPN connections keep getting blocked⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I probably need to switch VPNs. I currently use Surfshark and I experience 2 problems, and I want to see if it’s unique to that service.

  1. Lots of sites block my traffic because they detect i’m coming from a VPN. And just not like… banks or streaming services, but stupid things like Autotrader.com. It’s silly.

  2. The connection always seems to slow down over time, and I have to disconnect and reconnect to get it working at full speed again. I use it on Linux and on Android and the problem happens across devices.

  Sounds like Mullvad has some good options.
