This might be a hot take but I know someone at meta who makes $400k a year and is quite literally capped at that number for life - likely will never get a promotion strong enough to change that. 9-5 until they’re what, 50? This is not living. No matter the salary.
It's almost impossible to view these people as anything other than insecure downwardly-mobile losers afraid of competition from more talented immigrants.
GLP-1 drugs are the first intervention ever to make a dent in the rising obesity rate. "Do it naturally" just means do it not at all
The tragic thing about @theo is he's such a beta male theater kid spazz, that @OpenAI doesn't even *need* to pay him to get him to shill for them. By inviting Theo to their cute little dev events, and giving him early access to models, and having their handlers reach out to him to make him feel all warm and fuzzy and special, they get 100% of Theo's loyalty because he's such an easily manipulated loser. It's the equivalent of the dorky kid who always gets bullied by the popular kids, but then jumps at the chance to sit at their lunch table when he's finally offered the opportunity, and instantly becomes their loyal little puppy dog from that day on. If Anthropic had beaten OpenAI to the punch, and had given Theo all these little perks and ways of making him feel special, you can bet he'd be out here shilling for Anthropic today instead. It's insanely sad to watch, and so painfully clear what's going on. He thinks he's "in on it" rather than just being completely used and manipulated by their team. 🤣 Theo wants so badly for OAI engineers to notice him and accept him, because he is an uncool, neurotic, freakazoid YouTuber rather than a serious or legit engineer, and he just wants to feel "a part of it all" somehow, even though he has zero deep understanding of LLMs nor a background in AI research (again, the lunch table thing). He wants to keep getting invited to OpenAI events, get shipped OpenAI merch, keep getting internet likes and mentions from OpenAI's super duper cool *actual* engineers, etc. so he will continue to find every little opportunity he can to shill for OpenAI and/or bash Anthropic. He is such a loyal little OAI simp that he even tries to bash Anthropic's... web design (the color's are so bad! the art sucks!!). Hey Theo, could you be any more obvious? He pathetically calls himself a "CEO" in his bio, but his "company" is just a glorified way to toggle between using different models—wow, such a visionary, look out Silicon Valley! Theo is not a serious engineer, or person, or serious anything in the AI space. He is a fan.

What’s the harshest truth every young man must eventually learn?
The kind of neighborhood where you accidentally romanticize your entire life.

NYC is no longer a city, it is an algorithm. If you live in, say, Cincinnati, when you go to get ice cream with your friends, you really are just going to get ice cream with your friends. In NYC, this is not possible. You cannot just go to get ice cream, because, against your will, you are very self-consciously “someone who lives in NYC, going to get ice cream with their friends, in NYC.” You are never able to achieve full presence of mind because you are constantly placing yourself inside a chapter in some made up, schizophrenic and highly disorienting book. Put another way, as a New Yorker, you do not live in a city, but a massive, procedurally generated simulation of one. You are nothing more than a vapid unit of flesh and bone trapped since a Baudrillardian infinity mirror, where the references have their own references. You become more of a vague concept than a real person—some strange, soulless mix of ambition and violent/sexual impulses—and in your constant confusion you fail to ever become a true subject. You pay $17 for the ice cream cone. Then, you pull out your list of saved Instagram Reels which tell you where to get reservations for pasta later. When you arrive, you find yourself stuck in yet another long line, with people who look just like you. The longer you wait in lines like these, the harder it becomes to ever recover the soul of the person you were before you moved into your East Village studio.
