reminder that whenever you are faced with an insurmountable wall regarding the internal workings of a company, you can always just drop your Whatsapp username, ask the person to message you there, and then pay them five hundred US dollars to do literally anything you want

Man spends 44 years in prison for a crime he didn't commit. Finally gets exonerated. ICE immediately arrests him and is trying to deport him back to India, where he hasn't lived since he was 9 months old.

It's fascinating just how much of business and academia involves "reputation laundering" in one way or another. This is a great example. Ivy grad can't work for Olive Garden corporate (ick). But he can work for McKinsey to bill Olive Garden for corporate services.

Management consulting firms exist largely as middlemen to supply Ivy League talent to boring firms that would otherwise be too low-prestige to attract them

It bothers me to no extent that the media plays how Klarna whistles Klarna wants to the headlines to say "AI-enabled Klarna" It would have halved its workforce without AI because it overhired 2x in 2020-21 and never corrected till now But this is how they get front pages

My buddy lost his job to AI. It was his job to chug thousands of gallons of water at a data center

it’s funny that the main argument for AI is usually not that it’s good or useful, just that it’s inevitable so we might as well learn to live with it. even its advocates talk about it like it’s a plague

Man, I'm doing worse than even the bottom 50%.

The top 1% in the US have now a record $52 trillion in wealth. The bottom 50% have about $4 trillion.
