That’s were I started to get a big friends base in my neighborhood. Visit friends, play some games together, and copy floppy disks.

I loved those starter pics and animations of the hacker groups.

They simply asked ChatGPT to create a company strategy for 2025

You might be interested in Kondratiev Cycle‘s. Those cycles are running 30-50 years. We are in the end phase of the IT cycle and begin of a new one. At the peak of those cycle‘s were always market dominating companies. Many of them were broken up by governments.

I assume the new is about regenerative energy and material production.

One of my most memorable moments were at Urumqi 2006. A town in China were me as a Westener felt absolutely alien. Street and shop signs were in Chinese letters, Russian letters and Islamic letters. No chance to get an idea.

And over there my Visa debit card stopped working at the ATM‘s. I quickly ran out of money. And my visa needed an extension. And I needed money to get it and my passport back. And I had just a single box of salty crackers left. But I got out of the muddle ;)

And everyone is doing selfies and streaming the landscape instead of watching itself. It‘s like being in a country just for the audience.

That was already visible with digital pocket cameras around late 90ies. Cost of photgraphy went to zero.

Good reading. Besides Nvidia and the AI money bubble, the link to Bitcoin is interesting.I‘ve read so many other articles about financial acrobatics with Bitcoin and how it collapses now, I‘m waiting to see it falling down to 50k.

Not class warfare but political/ ideology warfare is already out there.

Hail the new emperors - the big AI companies.

As I‘ve companied some of my relatives already in their last weeks and days, I can say it’s different.

Karma comes into the game indeed. When your entire energy level slowly fades (around 10 yrs before) you experience a reflection of your character. Your brain just hasn‘t the power to establish s will/ strong conciousness/ whatever tells you the story you wanna get seen be others.

If you‘ve been a happy and joyful person, your surroundings will be nice and happy. A rather moaning or aggressive character wil find itself in a sort pf hostile environment.

It‘s how you interact and interacted with the people around you and how those people react on you.

Your thoughts in this phase won‘t be about Dashboards and numbers, but memorable experiences. I doubt it will be computer games, bro.

My honest advise: You better start collecting nice and joyful experiences now. I‘ve seen quite some moaning, aggressive oldsters and it’s a pity how they live.

Good to know. Thx for sharing.

Because they‘re drunken. Navy not.

You can’t compare indoors and outdoors directly. I think random has its means in an uneven environment. It simply doesn’t matter if the odometry sucks, if the wheels stick in muddy earth or small sticks block on side.

Advanced sensors such as GPS and cam isn’t very precise outdoors. That’s why newer models come with its own positioning sender.

Sorry but this is a primary schools‘ view on money. I know this is how it been taught at school and this is entirely wrong.

I wonder how human societies survived without money, if this is so essential for the crap.

I wonder why people do crappy jobs for money? Is it because they need much money for things such as car, smartphone, playstation? For some food, you do not need much money. Actually you can grow it for yourself if you do not live in a big city.

Sure, if one got in this consumption trap, one needs a constant inflow of fresh money.

It does matter. How much worth is helping a friend? Or how much money for your neighbors for caring your pets while you‘re in holidays?

Don’t you think they will refuse to take money for this favor? Not everything in humankind can be paid for.

Same as ever…was that money wasn’t needed.

Do you need money within your neighborhood or your family? Do you pay people for giving a favor?

This is exactely how most inventions are made: put together two things from different realms that might have a good fit.

Just wait a few years and they will find a way to use the light directly instead transferring it into electricity. There‘re some IC‘s that already use light instead of voltage to compute.

I work with of those shiny tech companies from China. Believe me the shiny part is on the surface only. The more you look under the hood, the more it’s getting poor. With Chinese tech the problems start when you have it. European companies before you have it. US companies when you have no scale.

Regarding Chinese regulations, you simply drill it down to: for the Government a human live is not worth much. Because „we are so many“

That’s a different thing indeed. In your case the AI 🤖 goes wild, will strip dance and tell poor jokes (while flirting with the ventilation machine)

I doubt it. It simply would be enough, if the AI could understand and say when it reaches its limits and hand over to a human. But that is even hard for humans as Dunning & Kruger discovered.
