Well, it's one smartass that spun up his own system and that reports 39m users.

A different kind of spam, looks like.

  • It may be counting Threads / Bsky participants
  • More likely fediverse broke through to the awareness of bit fleet maintainers....

You sure this isn't just anti-rowhammer et al mitigations?

Play Turing Complete.

If you can finish it without copying solutions wholesale, you're ready for writing assembly in the real world.

Amazon is extremely data-centric at that management level. If he's not showing hard data, then the data he has go against the narrative he's pushing.

I thought that was called pulling a Christopher Walken...

This is solid advice.

Also, the macOS ecosystem is predicated on you being rich enough (or fool enough) to buy it, and everything is nickel-and-dimed.

Subnautica; at the beginning your pod drops into the surface of the ocean, then you open the hatch and you climb out... to see an infinite expanse of blue sea under a blue sky.

That triggered so many memories for me, I had to take a minute. The color grading on that scene was on point.

One of the Quake games has a section where you get captured, then put on a conveyor belt where you see other people in front of you get mutilated, then that happens to you. That scene almost triggered a dissociative episode.

The original ending of Mass Effect 3 brought me to tears because the Clint Mansell music meshed so well with the on-screen segments, it really moved me. That said I also like the remastered ending; the latter is like the last few chapters of Lord Of The Rings, the former is like an American movie ending.

To your last point: money being created != Wealth/value creation; it's more like wealth redistribution (if you create a thousand bucks out of thin air, in an economy of a trillion it's small potatoes - but it does add up fast and affects everyone).

There absolutely is value in banking, but it's not nearly enough as much as advertised.

So as long as you got yours, everyone else can get bent?
