Nvidia’s CEO Jensen Huang says electricians and plumbers will be needed by the hundreds of thousands in the new working world

When I was 16-22ish, I knew everything. I was sure of it. I had it all figured out. Everyone was an idiot except me. I tried giving everyone advice because I had the best advice.

Then reality kicked me in the ass and brought me down a couple pegs and I realized that I was so incredibly wrong. I'm just a guy with limited knowledge and the world and universe is so vast and different that no one can "know it all" or even come remotely close.

I'm so thankful for that. Otherwise I'd be a fucking moron with a dumb leather jacket waxing poetic about skilled trades as I pretend that next word guessing chatbots are the pinnacle of humanity's creation.

Google preps Pixel ‘Audio Memory’ that ambiently tracks your ‘important conversations,’ like AI notetaker pins

Your wife probably searched them online. The advertisers got your public IP address to display ads of what was searched. It's so subtle and people leave digital bread crumbs everywhere that it gives the appearance that the phone is listening to you.

Truth be told it's more processing power and work to stream and auto transcribe everyone's audio from their phone. It's effortless to just scoop up all search and purchase data.

New Study: At Least 15% of All Reddit Content is Corporate Trolls Trying to Manipulate Public Opinion

The ebike subreddit is modded by the owners of Lunacycle. They actively remove posts about bad customer service/other issues from Lunacycle. I witnessed them name and shame some random redditor and accuse them of fraud because they posted screenshots of email correspondence that pointed out shady dealings on Luna’s part.

They use the general subreddit for electric bikes to funnel everyone into ordering from them.
