Here’s something that’s really important for everyone to understand.
If we design our cities just for cars, they fail everyone, including drivers.
If we design our cities with many great CHOICES in how to get around, they work better for everyone, including drivers.
Spread the word.

This is your regular reminder that one of the leaders of the political party in charge of the US both ate road kill and had worms in his brain, and they were separate incidents.

This is what I've been saying. The financials are gutting the job market, but it's not being replaced. There's just... less work getting done.
There isn’t much evidence that layoffs are being caused by AI taking people’s jobs.
For big tech, such as Amazon’s recent layoffs, the reason seems to be a combination of cutting headcount to balance increased spending on AI infrastructure and anticipation of (not realized) AI productivity gains.

AI isn't replacing jobs. AI spending is
Big spending on artificial intelligence puts pressure on jobs, as gloomy narratives about the future of work are ironically making new graduates less employable.

saw a post suggesting that "ai does 70% of the work for you" but all i can think about is the study that found "using ai makes you 19% slower"
arxiv.org/abs/2507.09089
so if you handwave the math: ai does 70% of the work and makes the remaining 30% about four times as hard as a result, qed

This perfectly encapsulates how I feel living in the US. The republican party is an insane death cult, the democratic party is 3 corporations in a trench coat, and the "socialists" are just the completely normal left-wing capitalists you'd find in any of 2 dozen European nations.
Europeans recognize Zohran Mamdani’s supposedly radical policies as ‘normal’
Critics of New York City’s mayor-elect have said his pledges of free bus service and universal childcare are unrealistic, but in Europe it’s a given

While they're wasting 90k per second, the rest of the industry is having trouble finding a job, so... where is all that money going?
(Thinking about it, that could, per day, basically employ the entire currently unemployed tech industry)

And finally $91,575.09 a second.
Every second OpenAI loses over $90k. So yeah, not a real business.
According to Social Security, the national average wage in 2024 is $69,846.57
all the math is based on $12billion and 91 days (365/4= is actually 91.25 but whatever, you get the point)

Looks like unemployment is drying up AGAIN. I'm not hearing back from employers despite my efforts. I would like to avoid a disaster and just pay them so they don't start eviction while I look for legal help.

Shocked (not shocked) to learn that some arbitrary labelling just hides posts by default.
Wondering why no one likes your posts anymore, even among your friends? It's because @jay.bsky.team and team have decided to hide a huge amount of content from all of our feeds by default.
Here's how to turn it off.
First go to the hamburger menu in the upper left corner
