Not necessarily. Humans brains use a tiny amount of power. Most of the human cost would be due to the very high cost of housing in many locations.

Yes I agree and this is what I meant. The cost of electricity, petroleum, transportation, the cost of goods brought in from around the world to feed and clothe the human and so on.

The real power required to support a human life in a developed country is a lot. Wattage for the human brain is definitely miniscule in comparison.

Usually the big tech companies leak the layoff numbers to the press themselves

rollingout.com is a clickbait site. Companies aren't leaking info to them.

Yahoo reported the same 30,000 number in February

I don’t think anyone is going to forget about this

Atlassian was famously bootstrapped and profitable since inception. They were one of the only profitable tech companies at a time when everyone else was busy making bigger and bigger losses.

So... XYZ stock hits an all time low and they decide to layoff half the staff and see if that raises the share price (it did).

This has nothing to do with AI. It is just a desperate move from a badly run company.

They really changed the stock ticker to XYZ during the web3 hype years, just because lot of the scammy crypto startups used the .xyz TLD? Sheesh...

That's like Atlassian changing its ticker to "VIBE" in desperation. Look kids, we're so in tune with you! Please come vibe on Jira!

He made some amazing documentaries. His documentary on Jackson Heights is really good.

He probably needed an editor to help split things up into miniseries though. His films are usually at least 3 hours long and sometimes 4 or 5 hours long.

One step closer to Spaceballs

At least 10 years too late

And it should’ve been a criminal offense. Or fraud at least. But for some reason, we all accepted this?

I never accepted it, I stopped buying from Amazon because of this specific issue long ago. Unfortunately I am not an Attorney General, so I can't bring criminal charges.

We shouldn’t need to have smart consumers, we should have laws that protect the dumb consumers like me.

You may not be Attorney General, but you do have a computer access and the Internet, where you could have shared this more publicly.

This information has been widely available for around a decade, if not longer, and is nothing new. It's been shared all over the internet by myself and countless people for years and years and years. I've even seen it show up on local news stations over the years.
