Not at all, people incapable of caring for others can also contribute wonderfully but they operate entirely different. It is arguably mean to expect our behavior from people who feel nothing for other people and your generosity is weakness to be exploited. They do however have great respect for that what scares them shitless which can be upgraded to unmatched respect if the scary thing helps them when they most need it. Could be a person or an organization. In the old days they have wives. lmfao
I've thought about it and decided the animation wont do.
The page needs a generated video with giant cockroaches, mechs, 3 men in supper hero gear with swords & lab coats and there needs to be a puny human being saved. Then a dark voice narrating how the man created an unmaintainable mess using llms and that after a fierce battle that lasted a week he was saved by team slopfix. Beethoven symphony No. 5
Gradually, over a 2 hour movie, change the protagonist from a white guy into a black woman and the villain from a black man into a white woman without the plot ever accounting for it.
The whole point of delegation is to free up time to do something else. There is a store here where the owner always runs around like a madman. I ask him why he doesn't have his employees do all those things (they mostly stand idle chatting) He said: Then I have to explain everything and they will probably do it wrong.
If I'm getting a $200 mowing bill it could be worth looking at the machines. If I pay you $4 per week I wouldn't worry about it.
He was praising the degree not himself. The exercise doesn't make philosophers, they study their work. If your only tool is a hammer that doesn't mean it isn't a marvelous tool.
> you can always find a plausible sounding excuse why failure is inevitable.
Exactly! This is the mind set. So tell me, how do you progress when you are there?
Or even better, now that we've accumulated many people conditioned by streaks of failure, how do we maximize their productivity and tax revenue? Should be an easy question for you :)
I have very low expectations for $2 per hour. If I would feel the need to use such service I would expect them to cut all corners. If you have a subscription for a decent LLM, know how to get my data into it and know how to write a prompt that does the job you might have 3 skills I don't or I might not have time to do it.
If the lawn looks great you get to do it again. I could ask the guy you send how much you are paying him and I could ask you how much the mower costs but it wouldn't necessarily be a good use of my time.
> Similarly, the ability to start your own business is difficult for most people
Ah right, after a 14 hour shift you've left your car half way as that was how far she could take you. You are now on your knees with the god of all migraines, around you are small mountains of laundry as you fail to repair the washing machine while your ramen gets cold. Your mind locked in a loop, if I pay this bill how will I buy food, I need to pay this bill, I need to buy food. Then POOF suddenly it strikes you that you could start your own business. Adrenaline rushes though your veins. The whole business lasts about 20 seconds before you wake up in the laundry, shit what time is it, fk I have to walk to work.
I think of it as a species trying different formulas until one sticks to the wall. (it never does) Eventually, one way or the other, we will go full grasshopper and burn everything to the ground again, we have that part down to an art.
We will again (proverbially) ride our horse to the saloon with our gun (or sword) hanging from our belt, we will play poker, smoke, drink, sing, dance and hang out with the guys - only to have each one of those things taken away again.
It's a fascinating bit of biology to see a species collectively sacrifice its well being for the benefit of one man almost entirely without getting something in return.
Not to argue rich people never did anything useful for humanity. The pun is that one may be promoted to great status for doing great things but after that there is no obligation to continue doing great things.
We are in an endless war against the great void and we've appointed many generals who at best couldn't care less about the war and at worse joined the dark side.
You've paid the man and now you get to see books you like fly into the great nothingness. Funny as hell! He showed non of the kindness and generosity he is known for?
You should give him more money, maybe something different happens next time.
Blog search was good, Technorati was good, google reader was good.
But I agree, if it doesn't have a blogroll it is safe to ignore the blog. It might even be considered the single identifier that separates the blogs from the spam.
