@aFuzzyBear2 he’s in his 40s

@tejask that's an old man, who ran a successful business until the world over took him trying to make basic ends meet at the end of his day's, I know this fucking too well bruv, Cash is king for a reason and in that moment you couldn't be kingly for the very reasons he's suffering

today i went to a store in berlin to buy something because the amazon delivery window was too late i told the owner and he has a strong reaction. “please never use amazon, they abuse workers and harm the environment. i dont mind competition but not them.” i said ok and asked to pay when he told me they only accept cash. i never carry cash. he said there’s an atm nearby. i dont even carry a physical card man its 2026. i hope this boomer business model either adapts or is eaten by amazon and similar models.

@KeysTwenty All of them in Germany.

@tejask It's 2026 Tejas, which ATM uses a card? Contactless?

@FiredSpices That’s why I said adapt

@tejask How is the last sentence what you arrived at, sir? No 3rd option? Eg: A way for boomers to be met halfway?

@d8hk4r @adeelibr Also I paid €35

@adeelibr @tejask Perfect cross sell opportunity

@adeelibr they can start by accepting contactless payments

@tejask how can a store owner barely scraping by compete with a multi billion dollar conglomerate who have access to best minds at their disposal

@badlogicgames @kenwheeler yeah chess isn’t solved man people still Play and enjoy Even competitively AI brainrot is so cursed

that's not controversial. that's just dumb.

what if instead of telling people to not use amazon and imaking them use amazon he actually provided an experience superior to amazon

tech/acc

This was a really fun talk to give about something that has genuinely helped me regulate my workload and prevent burnout. Thankful for the opportunity to give it at @Zalando.

hearing people call me “tayass”/“tayhass” and then in the next sentence use the word “contagious”

i dont get it but ok i enjoy writing code by hand anyway

do not be a fool and believe you’re great because your ai chatbot tells you you are

@steveruizok it doesnt

It does bother me that it costs money to code now

@MattWallace888 he isnt

Ok, it is just getting ridiculous at this point! People are pointing out that all of the ventilation grates (or whatever those are) have different shapes and hole sizes 🤔 Is Benjamin Netanyahu alive or not?

@netanyahu @GovMikeHuckabee

Sam Altman's own advisors told him not to launch 'adult mode' in ChatGPT. One of them warned it could become a 'sexy suicide coach' for kids. He nodded, thanked them, and did it anyway. This is who OpenAI is. Boycott ChatGPT.
