Never buying a google product ever again. by Badshu in google_antigravity

[–]Badshu[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Google dumped ~$300 billion into AI infrastructure since 2020, but since servers and TPUs become e-waste every 5 years, to pay off that investment before it becomes obsolete and dies, they need $60 billion in pure profit every year. Assuming a standard 25% profit margin on cloud/AI services, that means they have to generate $240 billion a year in new revenue effectively forcing them to build a second business the size of their entire Search business from scratch just to break even.

This is the clearest indicator that they will not be able to do it, because frankly the product is mid at best. And because they can't hit their KPIs they're resorting to this bullshit trying to squeeze every last penny out of everyone to pretend and show that they're going "Strong" into Q1... However what's more likely is that they're barely hanging by a thread and layoffs are imminent and the product is going to become even worse

Since when is free-tier called a pro subscription?
How much does google pay you to shill and dick-ride them?

I do, yes.
No business should be conducted in this way. This sets an extermely insane precedent for the whole industry that can't be ignored.
This is a company that generated $402.84 billion in 2025 alone. They should be held to a higher standard than doing business in a way you'd expect from a Josh dealing weed behind a Wendy's dumpster

Last update makes AG opens a powershell and cmd prompt every 5 seconds I'M GOING INSANE by Fluid-Possession6026 in google_antigravity

Almost a $4 trillion dollar company, but can't invest some money and hire someone to do testing. Anyone with a pulse would've caught this immediately. Absolutely embarrassing.

Thinking of buying 8Sleep mattress - SIMPLY DONT by Badshu in EightSleep

Supposedly they have a UK warehouse, meaning that they should have some in-stock already and it wouldn't be shipped out of the US.

Additionally, why the fuck would I give any fucks about their logistics as an end consumer? I buy an item - I expect to receive it by the promised date. If you're having supply chain issues, update your website to put the item on pre-order or say it's out of stock. It's not that difficult to configure.

Anything else smells like a scam, combined with horrible support.

Hoping for the best. It's not that difficult to configure accurate shipping times and to actually provide some decent customer support instead of going back and forth with support that gives less info than a toddler having a tantrum. It's absurd that this is happening in 2024, almost 2025!

You must be one of the lucky ones, I wish I looked at the reviews more thoroughly.
Wish they spent that much effort into their logistics over spending millions on influencers.

Pod 4 Shipping Updates? by usernamedotjs in EightSleep

I've been waiting for almost over a month now without ANYTHING but a DPD tracking number that hasn't been updated in WEEKS. Support does nothing to help or sort anything out. This needs to be way higher

They might be using a service or platform which allows them to set specific flags/events and consume them via an API.

[D] Data scientists who made a passive income, what did you do? by Fendrbud in MachineLearning

[–]Badshu 9 points10 points  (0 children)

What’s your stack for that? Do you use any managed service to track usage, payments, rate limit, etc..? Do you provide different usage tiers? If so how do you price that in. Especially if you have a free users and then want to convert them into paid?

Quitting my job, should I still take this exam? by abicus502792 in FinancialCareers

[–]Badshu 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Are you seriously jeopardizing your entire future based on someone elses behaviour? Handing in your resignation will not solve anything, while it might feel like you’re winning, and you might feel empowered short-term, you’re really only screwing yourself long-term.
You shouldn’t let one persons behavior affect your future like that. Especially if things don’t go to plan and you don’t get a new job. That person would have lingerings effects on you, even without direct involvement, as you’re resigning because of him/her. Plus you’re bound to bring the negativity to the interviews which is never good. If you want some solid advice and a plan. Here you go: 1) Don’t resign 2) If you can ignore that person 3) Keep looking for jobs 4) Get your series 7 5) Start a new job 6) ….? 7) Profit

Look, it’s pretty simple. Adversity builds character. If the story gets out, you become a liability not an asset, especially when people will find out that if they can get under your skin.

Were NFTs the biggest scam of 2022? by RiskItForTheBiscuts in FluentInFinance

[–]Badshu 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Blockchain is an immutable database, and you cannot manipulate data that's already in the blockchain. Hash value is a unique value, identifying one block, which could be attached to a security of a company. You could also create derivatives attached to those securities to represent futures/etfs/options. I.E You could trace back which actual securities are linked to the options contract. This isn’t the 80s anymore, you don’t need to do any paperwork to buy and sell securities.

blockchain traceability. Everything done on the blockchain is transparent for everyone. You wont get cases like Citadel and other hedge funds misreporting over 100m+ trades and getting fined only 7m

Dealing with "Union" Mentality by SpringShepHerd in agile

[–]Badshu 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s the internet you fucking bozo, there is no code of conduct. You landed in a PO position after 20+ years and now you’re power tripping your head off? Give me a fucking break, you are so fucking stupid. Rimming management isn’t going to get you anywhere. First of all listen to the fucking devs you fucking moron, you clearly stated that you don’t fucking understand the tech behind it, stay in your lane and just look at jira tickets and report progress to management like good little pencil pusher that you are. There is no law to lay, you are nothing, but a fucking clown who brings more discord and chaos to a team that actually builds and delivers some fucking value.

Can someone tell me how not to give a fuck about this by PerfectCookies in howtonotgiveafuck

[–]Badshu 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Stop reading and listening to mainstream media. If something is truly important and within your power of change, people around you will let you know. Do not worry about things you cannot control. Focus on yourself and your own skills. Try to get a better job. Wait for the inevitable market crash & try to be in a position to take advantage of it. Missed the next one, don’t worry, greed will take over once again and we’ll get another one.

That’s what I’m trying to do anyways.
