I feel the same. I will use my 2022 320i touring until it turns to dust. By then, I hope I’ll be able to afford a porsche that can fit my dog’s cage in the trunk.
I’m definitely not buying any of the newer models with giant touchscreens instead of buttons.
Thank you! Don’t believe the “haters”, it’s nice to get a positive comment. I was very proud of joke, and was honestly surprised nobody beat me to it first.
Congrats, keep it up! I was 121 at my heaviest (many years ago), now at 95. Not perfect (180+ cm tall), but at least I found a weight I can maintain without an unreasonable daily effort
I’m wondering if those who think that AI will replace our jobs have ever used “AI” (LLM), because it’s not very good.
I’m currently leading a business project at a big corporation, and an AI chatbot solution got pushed into my scope by executives, to be delivered free to the client as a pilot (screwing with my budget). Either Copilot Studio is absolute garbage, or we have incompetent engineers, because they can’t get it to work for 3 weeks now.
I have a hunch that in order for the latest fancy models to vomit back barely useable answers, thousands of the world’s best engineers and PhD-s are sweating blood 24/7, while using computing power and consuming energy that would have been enough for a continent in 2019.
Meanwhile they are also burning money like crazy, with no sustainable business model in sight. I’m not saying LLMs are not to stay, but there will be a huge bust, and it will assfuck the economy and workers, while these idiots will get bailed out by Daddy Small Government.
No, that was at Boeing.
That’s why my CV looks so strong:
Director of Internal Audit; Enron Corp. (1998-2001)
Senior Vice President for Risk Management; Lehman Brothers (2002-2008)
Edit: for all the recruiters reaching out, I’m not interested. I’m currently Managing Director for Growth (Europe) at Tesla, and expecting to get a huge bonus after our Q4 2025 sales numbers are final.
What do you guys to with the white rubbery thing after drinking your mozzarella?

Same thing happened to a guy next to me at a shooting training, AR burst fired after load & make ready. Luckily he was holding it in the right direction, so all the bullets flew downrange. It was still very scary.
This is why the 4 rules are so important. Shit can go wrong, but if you do everything right, nobody will get hurt.

Exactly. Different people have different challenges. A woman working in finance in NYC faces many difficulties, but so does man working at a gas station in Albania. It’s not a competition.
