I’m building a high-signal tech + geopolitics + markets link/discussion board.
Want to come join with me?

We see this pretty much everywhere now, where resources are extracted and given to the wealthy.
Sort of how the police should keep tabs on violent criminals.
There is no "dehumanising".
The stuff I’m building is things I could only dream of before. With LLMs, I can build things in a year that would have taken me a lifetime before.
If the pole is willing to work for a third of the price the local(I'm assuming Englishman), of course it is detrimental to UK labour.
Pretty good for the capital owning class, though.
I use LLMs to great advantage, solving problems in my domain. I no longer make for loops.
So the pain points you and I frequently run into, simply don't exist for a well connected individual(Sam Altman).
Without it, the Danish people would experience regular black outs.
Please remind me how my native country Sweden could build so many reactors for cheap in the 70s? Because to me it is evident that political decisions have killed European(and American) nuclear industry, thus creating this catch 22 where making new nuclear power is expensive because how expensive it is...
Nuclear power has been an outstanding success for Sweden, despite the irrational pushback. It could have been an even greater success...
Most of (western) Europe has a bleak copy, representative democracy, where we get the representatives who are the best at advancing within a political organisation. Essentially, the worst type of yes man you can imagine.
I'm a pretty clever guy, a high achiever, yet at my very best, at my absolute peak efficiency I probably can do the job of 5-50 mediocre people.
And there are millions of people smarter, better and faster than me. And most of them have more money.
