First phone.

The waymo vehicles are so cautious they create safety issues.

Will there even be a path for junior level developers?

It’s this. When boards and non-tech savvy managers start making decisions based on a slick slide deck and a few visuals, enough will bite that people will be laid off. It’s already happening.

There may be a reckoning after, but wall street likes it when you cut too deep and then bounce back to the “right” (lower) headcount. Even if you’ve broken the company and they just don’t see the glide path.

It’s gonna happen. I hope it’s rare. I’d argue it’s already happening, but I doubt enough people see it underpinning recent lay offs (yet).

Home Assistant works well on a cheap(-ish) Raspberry Pi. They’re even working to get voice fully capable.

It can be fully local and is FOSS, for those for whom that matters.

I stopped using them months ago. I only notice when I’m looking for places (e.g., restaurants, barbers).

I’m not unhappy but may still shop around.

Now who in the hell downvoted you?

Enjoyed your reply and enthusiasm.

Did you enjoy the read?

Algersome?

He’s taking the territory early.

Others will be less willing to develop if they must compete with a loss-tolerant Meta with years (and billions of dollars) already invested.

I want VR and much of what he’s got people working on. I just don’t want it from them. Or Google. Or most tech bigs.

People hurt themselves that way. Play it safe, walk slowly to the fridge and back.

No. The poster meant it one way and I mistook where I was.

I deleted my response but it looks like some people (instances?) still see it.

It’s solidly my fault.

I’m curious where Nothing goes if they can keep momentum.

He can pay. He chooses not to, then acts like staying in SF is a grand show of loyalty (no one else will rent to him, he’s a deadbeat).

He’s pure gift who has managed to have companies that work despite him. He’s the Zaphod Beeblebrox of business. But both heads are empty.
