  • The Big Short Guy Just Bet $1 Billion That the AI Bubble Pops

    Jump

  • Them he's betting.yhst the economy will crash, basically, and we're okay with that shit.

    Why should someone not be able to short some stock? The AI bubble will burst anyway.

    Also, he doesn't have one billion dollars, he manages an investment fund that people collectively put a billion dollars (or more) there.

  • Humans BY DEFAULT do not want to commit violence towards other humans, otherwise things like Killer's Remorse and PTSD would not exist.

  • Is anyone just like... very terrified of losing your memories?

    Jump

  • Yes, very much so. Everyone here talked at length about this already, but I remembered the book Flowers for Algernon, which, among several other more significant things in the book, talks about this.

    I really recomend you read the book before this spoiler, since it kinda kills the moment.

    At the very end of the book the main character knows only that they bring flowers to a grave everyday, but don't remember who's burried. And it's one of the few moments media made me cry. because memory issues hit me really hard.

  • Multilingual people, do you feel better about yourself than those that only speak one language? Monolingual people, do you envy/admire Multilingual people? And why?

    Jump

  • I'm from Brazil and I'm very happy to have almost fluent english and crappy spanish.

    It's also quite useful. Not only is english spoke everywhere online, but there where cases where my spanish was useful for my job.

  • The reason the survey shows that many canadian people is probably much simpler. The survey was hosted on lemmy.ca

    OP didn't knew a lemmy server was federated with other lemmy servers. They thought lemmy was centralized and canadian

  • The "cargo van" that's actually a cargo bike (that's actually an electric cargo tuk-tuk)

    Jump

  • What did you invent?

    Jump

  • I've developed it in rust!

    I made it because I needed an interpreted language in rust and didn't want to use lua, and because I just like doing it :)

    I'd done some languages before, but just some very simple assembly-like stuff

    This one has functions, control flow, closures, scoped variables and such. Also, it's stack based! Which is interesting for me and hell for the users (also me, lmao)

    Sadly I won't post it here because it has my full legal name attached :(

    They probably wouldn't seed it, but I really don't want to risk it

  • Just don't

  • There are a lot of things that people won't understand [...] it seems silly to expect the creator to "get it".

    The creator said they had done research into this. Not only that, if you don't know the rate of bisexual man, just leave it the same as woman of something. And even if it's wrong it doesn't change anything (until Biotech)

  • What did you invent?

    Jump

  • A few months ago I started working on an interpreted programming language. It's not particularly polished, but it helped me get a new job!

  • What of your grandma's cooking do you miss?

    Jump

  • Oh she used to buy the dough and loads of meat and make pastel. She'd also put olives and eggs from time to time. Never found a pastel that tasted so good ❤️

  • What's the weirdest hobby you've heard of?

    Jump

  • I don't remember the name, but the being hanged by chains attached to your skin thing is really weird

  • Why?

    Jump

  • I wanted to code in C. I saw some tutorials for windows and found it very complex, but I saw one in linux where the person just gcc hello.c. And since then I've fallen in love

  • nah dog, intelligence is blue

    but I can see yellow as creative

  • More for folks from walkable environments, my question is: would you walk an hour and 15 minutes to go to say, the library?

    Jump

  • By the way, count the actual time it took you to walk that. From personal experience, Google Maps always says a considerably higher number
