You are correct. Individuals are just the result of a collection of experiences and the DNA of 2 people.

There is a very simple solution to that. Share it with the people that helped you become wealthy. If you’re wealth is generational, become a benefactor to a good cause.
The shame isn’t the wealth, it’s what they could be doing with it, but aren’t. I bet they sleep just fine though.

Have you SEEN the price of printer ink?!?

I honestly expected this to link to an Onion article.

It’s not wrong. Just a little sad.

Ok,say that it was technically legal. They misrepresented(lied) that there was no human in the loop. I’m fairly confident a judge would find them guilty of fraud as they literally admitted to fraud. Possibly wire fraud. Maybe you don’t care, I would be furious.

Ahh thanks for the correction. That seems like a terrible name choice too lol.

Except the part where they had an actual human listening in on what was considered privileged conversation. It is illegal in many places for a person to record or be on a call without the permission of both parties. Presumably AI Note-takers are only processing data. Think Dr. or lawyers, trade secs

TBF this was circa 2017 I think? I was still probably using GoToMeeting… it definitely didn’t generate notes. The idea was not novel, the tech wasn’t quite there yet. This guy just admitted he grifted vaporware with fraud until he could build it. That’s the real problem here.

They were all named “Alan” so they just shortened the name to “Al” which looks exactly like “AI”. No fraud was committed. /s

This is low-key savage. Took me a second.

That sent me too. Imagine someone mentioning that while across the table from a VC. “Crypto what?”

A lot of these types of startups are just brute forcing bad ideas until one of them sticks.
If you work for a software company, you’ll find 1000 niches to fill that said company won’t. These guys were likely also employed at one when tanking the startups.

I’m not talking about people that have degrees. I’m talking about “academics” that go to college and never leave. Like this economist that is just learning the poverty line is not the poverty line has never set foot off campus. I have a lot of k-12 teachers in the fam. They know better than this.

Of course they do. They have “.ai” in the name.
Also, who is saying this company is worth a billion? They do “cloud automation” and don’t even show Azure or OCI on their website, which are deployed in some capacity in most of the enterprise these days.
November 25, 2025 at 11:04 AM
“Folks” don’t wonder. They know. Academics are the ones wondering aloud in the hope they might get published.

No. It’s Gigabit and full duplex. Thicknet is shared access and relies on CSMA/CD. It is also designed for automotive use, so chances are most network engineers have ever even heard of it.

Have I just subscribed to Cat Facts™️?
Also, good to see you pop up here. I’m the guy that was the FE that visited the IOL to help tend to WebNM for many years. I still talk about your networking skills!

RFC1925 gets almost as much mentions as RFC1918. Specifically “With sufficient thrust, pigs fly just fine.”. This is great when someone gets a dumb idea.
November 16, 2025 at 11:12 AM
I still have an ST500 I pulled out of a ceiling and was still connected to a network via AUI (MR9000). I had worked at Cabletron years earlier and never got one. This launched a billion dollar company. The same people also ran it into the ground.

100VG-AnyLAN. I was always impressed that some engineer somewhere made Fast Ethernet backwards compatible with existing cabling. Also, BGP is brilliant. I don’t care how many problems people have had with it. It is the core of any serious network.

Also, every mandatory corporate training is the result of someone’s expensive fuck-up. BOA and JLL still have to pay their employees to take this training, and BOA only cares about BOA’s bottom line.
November 15, 2025 at 2:59 PM
“mandatory compliance” is about completing the training within 30 days.

The things listed are not optional from a legal perspective. JLL/BOA is also responsible if employees don’t comply with legal requests from law enforcement. Basically it’s corporate insurance CYA.

You can still believe this and not be religious. It just wouldn’t a whole lot better coming from a church leader.
