Big brain tech dude got yet another clueless take over at HackerNews etc? Here's the place to vent. Orange site, VC foolishness, all welcome.

I love the deep lack of specificity in "other sectors of the economy facing shortages". Either you have to acknowledge that you're talking about the cafe economy and gig economy and those sectors aren't so much facing labor shortages as much as leveraging the worker's chronic underemployment to keep costs down or you're making shit up wholesale. Also please note that American companies are already finding that as the investor capital subsidies run out it's often cheaper to hire a person than pay the token costs to do the job with AI.
