it's not the experience or knowledge part that bothers me, as you said people focused on different things and everyone starts from 0. it's the attitude of giving up when their ai slop doesn't work or coming up with bandaid solutions to get the task done quickly rather than trying to actually learn or see the bigger picture. it's an era of short attention span and fast dopamine due to tech, ofc everyone is affected but gen z and a more so because their parents put ipads in their faces since 0 years old.

I remember vividly watching someone type in the address bar of their browser "google", and hit enter. It took them to the google results page from which they pressed on the first result, google.com, and only then did they proceed to type in their search term.

History repeats itself, no doubt that ai bubble is basically the next dot com bubble. Two million dollar questions: when will it burst, and will the next big trend also happen to rely on GPUs.

I used to think like this but then at one point I looked at my bed and I can't stand it. It eventually reflects on how you treat the rest of your home and outside as well . If you find a 10 second task infuriating and pointless that's not too far off from thinking mopping , cleaning toilet , ironing clothes are a waste of time as well.

Mixue. They're suddenly just popping up everywhere, and the price of their ice cream/drinks is dirt cheap to a point where it doesn't even make any sense. I understand that the cost of those ingredients are dirt cheap anyway, but there's no way their margins cover operations, rent, labor.

I have one too but it has an emergency physical "master key". Also there's a port to provide power to it through a battery bank, in case you really run out of juice though it's potentially another point of failure. No internet connection

The theory is that on-prem includes a lot of ancillary costs like a team of staff for maintenance (or cost for outsourcing it), hardware maintenance/upgrades, cybersecurity, dealing with failures, backup, load balancing, multi-region/multizone etc.

I don't think cloud solves all these issues necessarily and I am convinced if you do the calculations cloud ends up being more expensive depending on the scale. I think you really pay the premium for convenience, speed (of getting things going) and user experience (the software)
