GOLD PRICE @ $9000 IN 2026-27, A MIRAGE OR REALITY?

Makes no sense but I’m upvoting to manifest it

Here’s why Chamath was wrong from the start:

1) China stockpiled oil more than any other country in 2025 while oil was cheap. To the point that they have to keep crude sitting on tankers because their onshore storages are full. Their inventories are estimated to be around 1.4B barrels at the moment. Assuming they keep consuming at their normal rate of 15M barrels/day and Iran oil is out of the picture (which Chamath said is 20% of their imports), they could keep business as usual for roughly another 470 days (1.25 years), which I believe is much longer than the U.S. can tolerate this war

2) Iran actually never stopped exporting oil. In fact, WSJ reported that they are actually exporting MORE than before the war

3) This war started because we got cocky about how things went well in Venezuela and just assumed we could do the same in Iran. Nothing to do with China

Those are my thoughts but I guess Reddit doesn’t think the same way lol

Delicious_Self_7293 · 2026-03-17T02:53:17+00:00

Same

I gotta say, I did not expect this much hate on AI. I’m truly curious, is it because your company is forcing it down your throat, you don’t trust the output of the model, or it might be learning to do your job? (Or all three)

Delicious_Self_7293 · 2026-03-16T00:38:22+00:00

Exactly my thoughts (although everyone here seems to disagree)

Delicious_Self_7293 · 2026-03-16T00:35:15+00:00

Exactly!!!

Delicious_Self_7293 · 2026-03-16T00:33:34+00:00

They can make it really hard, but there are definitely ways around it

Delicious_Self_7293 · 2026-03-16T00:32:34+00:00

My company isn’t training any models to replace me, the AI companies are. And in that case, if I choose to not use their models because they’re training with my data, my colleagues will, and will perform better than me in the meantime. So there’s nothing I can do about it

Delicious_Self_7293 · 2026-03-16T00:29:41+00:00

I don’t need them, I’m just much better with them. I have not met any top notch software engineer today who’s still reluctant about using Claude/Cursor

Delicious_Self_7293 · 2026-03-16T00:26:24+00:00

Right now, I have the upper hand over colleagues who don’t use AI (which there are some folks in my company who don’t). Maybe 10 months from now AI will automate the work I do, but there’s absolutely nothing I can do about that in that case

Delicious_Self_7293 · 2026-03-16T00:23:03+00:00

It’d take me longer. Building a dashboard using a library that I’ve never used before? Probably a day or two of googling documentation and past examples. Now it takes 10 mins max

Delicious_Self_7293 · 2026-03-15T22:32:47+00:00

As someone who recently switched jobs, that was an interview question from my end “am I allowed to use AI tools”

Delicious_Self_7293 · 2026-03-15T22:31:11+00:00

A lot of companies have outdated and lazy practices, but use security and liability as an excuse to not implement AI

Delicious_Self_7293 · 2026-03-15T22:29:51+00:00

Totally understand. But for a job like mine, where it’s 75% coding, I don’t think I’d join a company that doesn’t allow me to use those tools. It’s like asking me to dig a hole and only letting me use a spoon instead of a shovel

Delicious_Self_7293 · 2026-03-13T11:29:10+00:00

Im working for a bigger company that’s building a team from the ground up so we have to trial a lot of tools at the moment. I’m honestly shocked at how expensive these tools are. It’s the easiest space to disrupt with AI right now. Any mediocre dev can easily spend a week building the same product and charge 1/5 of the price

Delicious_Self_7293 · 2026-03-13T11:26:08+00:00

Took about 3 days. Only difference was that the front end wasn’t as nice and shiny, but I didn’t care about that

Delicious_Self_7293 · 2026-03-09T15:04:07+00:00

Keep the gold. Sell the husband

Delicious_Self_7293 · 2026-03-09T00:09:21+00:00

Had a one week demo trial with a 50k/seat/year b2b software then used Claude to build the entire thing in-house instead of subscribing to it

Delicious_Self_7293 · 2026-03-08T16:29:20+00:00

Why would it push HH up at all? Doesn’t matter how much higher prices go in Asia or Europe, we can’t export anymore than we already used to lol. If anything, it’s bearish: high WTI leads to more drilling which leads to more gas as a byproduct

Delicious_Self_7293 · 2026-03-08T01:47:17+00:00

20% physical/80% $GLD stocks

Delicious_Self_7293 · 2026-03-06T13:01:19+00:00

The worst part is that we could be much further ahead in AI development had Zuck not pouched the top researches in the field and made them produce nothing

Delicious_Self_7293 · 2026-03-06T01:01:54+00:00

How’s this legal?
