I wonder if people are misinterpreting her post, and think you’ve highlighted the real meat here. It sounds like she’s reflecting on what’s broken with her approach that stops her from being happy without these accomplishments.

Agreed, it’s not completely devoid of value, but it’s definitely not saving me any super meaningful time.

There’s some labor efficiency but I would be really surprised if it even got to an hour a week in productivity gains.

I have copilot at work and honestly it’s not worth the price.

The number of times it has created grossly inaccurate meeting notes or summary items basically means I can’t trust it to be shared with someone who wasn’t there, so it’s mostly just there as a roll the dice memory jogger for participants.

The components embedded in office apps like PowerPoint are absolutely useless, and that’s where I really wanted it to help.

This is so true, it has been really sad watching people I care about get sucked into this cycle of anti accountability for their actions and behaviors, and then sabotage all of their relationships in a vicious cycle of misunderstanding and anger.

Welles, the ingredients you got bake the cake you get.

This is the buried lede that’s really concerning I think.

Their goal is to create AI agents that are indistinguishable from humans and capable of convincing people to hold certain positions.

Some time in the future all online discourse may be just a giant AI fueled tool sold to the highest bidders to manufacture consent.

One of the things I love about my Lightning is that it doesn’t look like a fucking cybertruck

That’s a terrible idea that we’ve seen play out countless times now.

Here’s how it will go down.

  1. Fool offers to disarm in exchange for a promise of peace from the aggressor
  2. Aggressor promises
  3. Fool disarms
  4. Aggressor aggresses

This is totally me, my daughter, and my nephew with Pokemon.

Yeah I definitely wasn’t advocating for that, was just explaining how that worked with marginal tax rates.

[–] faltryka@lemmy.world 22 points 1 month ago (6 children)

Because the way marginal taxation works if you make 300k you paid all those extra brackets tax hikes before you got to 300k and started seeing the lower marginal rate.

So to see your impact you add every changed number from the left up to your income, that’s your impact.

Yes it takes a positive turn at 300k, but you’re already deep in the whole and don’t turn to actually positive until around the final bracket.
