Believing AI is bonkers to me. But these shields been up since the 90s. None of this stuff matters. It was all gibberish
It was merely untenable due to hardware limits and now outdated software development patterns.
Big data SaaS companies were never the end goal. They were a stepping stone to AI. A lab to test AI theory.
So your runway and moat so to speak were never real. Merely temporary science research.
I don't think the wealth should go to billionaires. Nor do I think your life should be spent dancing like a monkey to their organ, while you convince yourself to soothe the soul its for a greater good.
Perhaps your country should engage in substance collective action. Because this whole time you were just a pawn of billionaires who don't know you exist. As such they never cared about providing you assurances. You were just cheaper labor.
Have you not been reading the headlines about urban offices empty? Low taxes to create foot traffic for other businesses?
The trickle down of the ZIRP era was about spreading all the dollars they could print as quickly as possible to maintain dominance of the dollar.
SaaS apps are meaningless to future generations. We were never creating pyramids of Egypt like wonders. We were missionaries for contemporary American propaganda.
Sounds like specious reasoning similar to the tired trope of "someone is wrong on the internet and I must correct them".
Twitter is in the 1% not the "99% of these..." but don't let reading comprehension get in the way.
I was a phonics kid not a 3-cuing student. Reading scores have nose dived since phonics was phased out. So I understand it's not entirely your fault.
Which is where the unserious emerges but in a subtle way; taking such unserious things so seriously is not serious behavior. It's anxious and paranoid, aloof and clueless behavior.
Secure in tech skills but unserious otherwise.
Lacking a broad set of skills will make office workers unable to grow a potato inherently paranoid about their job.
But it's pretty clear with the money printer switched off the real motivation was the propagation dollars fast and wide.
The rest of the world has rebuilt after Biden and Trump's and their parents generations bombed it to glass.
Those countries modernizing create an existential threat to the dollar as a reserve currency; fuck Americans! says a generation that grew up in a shit hole Americans left behind.
While polite publicly as expected a whole lot of the 8 billion outside the US do not give a shit the US exists and has power over them.
Need to propagate a lot of dollars fast, 24/7 as a moat on it remaining a reserve currency.
99% of these software startups are basic software that can be handled by a single dev; see Reddit apps and such.
But that money printer was running hot and heavy. Needed to funnel it somewhere. Why not that favorite political cudgel of the elites; pointless busy work jobs! Let's invest in a bunch of shops nearby for them to lunch at too!
All the arrogant asocial coder bros cast aside.
All the poorly reasoned shortcuts due to hustle culture and "git pull the world" engineering, startups aura farm on Twitter/social media about their cool sweatshop labor exploiting tech jobs...
Watching AI come around and the 2010s messes blow up in faces... chefs kiss
Hey it's all web-scale though! Good job!
