Couple different layers of joke, actually.

The first is that they didn’t actually misread $12B as $128, but saying so is a cheeky reference to how B and 8 look similar.

The second is sort of an attempt at absurdist humor. Obviously $128 is not going to get you very far towards building a physical AI engineer, and that question violates our rational expectations in a way that some find humorous.

Some poor guy? Summoned up the courage?

This tweet is about a fucking widow you acorn

I had a class where I wrote a ~70 page report for the midterm project, and a ~120 page report for the final project. My lab partner and I had to pull all nighters for both, and I drank an entire 2-liter of mountain dew to stay awake to finish the final project’s report. This was before I even had any machine learning or AI classes, so having AI write it wasn’t even an option to me.

All that to say, kids these days are soft 😤

When people and businesses stop buying their products

Holding hands with another person is harder than standard or suicide grip under a barbell, because holding someone’s hand means leaving the gym for an extended period of time

The fox people couldn’t figure out how to fit those things on the bullet list

You’re not wrong. But on the other hand, do we really need a browser API for measuring a user’s SSD usage?

developpers might look at making games playable on less powerful hardware

Yes, please let this lead to devs focusing on efficiency again. I don’t need real time physics simulations and “lifelike” facial animations that still haven’t found a way out of the uncanny valley after like two decades.

I want snappy load times, download and install sizes in the tens of gigabytes, not hundreds, consistent frame rates even when there’s a lot going on on the screen. I have more VRAM than God, yet I still get stuttering in some games on high graphics settings. It’s pathetic.

Because plastic is a byproduct of oil production.

I learned this from playing Satisfactory. I mean, I probably actually learned it in school at some point, but Satisfactory really drove it home. One of the first things you learn after unlocking oil is how to process all the excess oil by-product into plastic… And then straight into the shredder for those sweet sweet Ficsit coupons

I don’t think there’s necessarily anything inherently wrong with that statement. A police force acting in the interests of the citizenry to protect and serve them should take any threat seriously. Where things fall apart though is trying to claim that sending multiple vehicles full of heavily armed SWAT agents to someone’s house based on a single prank call is the same as “taking the threat serious”.

The person downvoting you doesn’t understand probability or statistics lmao

To be fair, Elon never specified exactly what he meant by the word “briefly” and the phrase “serve as a boat”

Oh wait, yes he did

He was the party chairman for a single county, I doubt that’s any sort of elected position. I think progressives should take a page out of his book though, and get more young people involved and into leadership positions in the Democratic party, in order to push things to the left.

Are you one of those “food is medicine” people

No u

You decided to rage at my completely innocuous comment an entire day after I posted it, I’m not the one trying to flex here. Why are you so mad

My comment has 7 upvotes actually 💪😤

You’re bad at hyperbole dude

I do the work of three people for the salary of 3/4 of a person

Know your worth and be willing to walk away.

Just the other day I watched some luxury SUV sitting dumbfounded in a left turn lane with an ambulance flashing lights and blaring the horn behind it. Oh yeah, the left turn lane was the one that led to the emergency room parking lot. I wish that bike messenger was around then

But then you’d be the owner of something called a Brother P-Touch

(I know it’s a great label maker, I just can’t pass up a chance at low brow humor when it presents itself)
