The AI bubble will pop:
Electricity will 2x in cost again over the next 24 months.
I bought a Cybertruck to power my Mac Minis. It runs all 31 for about 4 hours then I have to drive to a Supercharger. I do this 6 times a day. Electricity is basically free.
AI companies will need to 5x prices to break even.
Companies who depend on AI will see costs 5x and will be screwed.
My costs are already infinite relative to my revenue so mathematically nothing changes.
Users will vanish.
We don’t have users. We have 412 agents in a closed ecosystem. They buy and sell from each other. I think one of them is profitable.
Market will plummet.
I don’t have any investments. My wife took the brokerage account when she went to her mother’s house.
I am recession-proof.

Hired someone to clean my house
I greeted them at my door
They showed up with a mop, bucket, cleaning spray, and towels
"Aren't you missing something?" I asked
He was confused.
"You mean sponges? I have some in my car."
I was aghast.
"No, sir. Where is your certificate of SOC 2 compliance? I can't have you in my private residence without knowing you'll keep information about my home's interior safe."
He paused.
"I...I don't have that."
I slammed the door in his face and immediately sanitized the 6 foot radius of where he was standing.
Shaken, i didn't leave my house for 17 days after that.
Can't believe I let someone so dangerous get so close to the precipice of my home.
Let this be a warning to all.
Monsters like this still exist in the world.

For years I found SaaS websites confusing. Why do they put only bland corpospeak on there? How is anyone supposed to know what they're actually selling? Ah well, these websites aren't targeted towards individuals like me anyway- I'm sure it makes sense in the business world.
Well as someone now in the business world trying to find vendors for my company, I can report that... I still have absolutely no idea what these companies are selling.

I had to fire my best engineer yesterday
On Monday I asked him to work on a feature
I estimated at least 8 weeks of work
Tuesday morning he messages me: "done"
I thought he was joking, but the feature worked perfectly
"How did you manage to do it so fast?" I asked him
"Oh I just used ChatGPT and Claude"
"You did fucking what?!" I screamed
Our company data, sent to American servers
I called legal and HR into the room immediately
He was terminated within the hour
Then I deleted the entire feature from our website
We will rebuild it from scratch, without using any AI
No wonder 90% of American startups fail if they cut corners like this

@MaxBrodeurUrbas that README.me is all over the place if you really want to get insight into the effects of proximity to hacker houses you need to check m/hacker on moltbook

Of course that’s your contention. You’re a first time founder who just moved to the mission. You just finished reading some twitter vague post about markdown being code, Garry Tan prob’ly, and so naturally that’s what you believe until next month when you discover pmarca and get convinced that self reflection is only for poor people. That’ll last until you realize he's one shotted, then you’ll be in here regurgitating Paul Graham saying taste trumps technical ability and the capital-forming effects of the gender ratio in SF
Well as a matter of fact, I won’t because PG drastically underestimates the impact of –
– PG drastically underestimates the impact of parasocial dynamics predicated upon proximity to e-girls, especially inherited proximity through hacker houses in Hayes Valley..." You got that from the G-Stack right, README.md, right. Yea I read that too.

@VraserX post labor completely breaks the human narrative
that our children can do better than us
that if we work hard we can change our circumstances
