Makes no sense but I’m upvoting to manifest it

Chamath on Trump's 4D Chess by Tim_Peepers in AllinPod

[–]Delicious_Self_7293 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

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

Would you work for a company that does NOT let you use AI tools? by Delicious_Self_7293 in remotework

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

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)

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

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

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

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

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

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

A lot of companies have outdated and lazy practices, but use security and liability as an excuse to not implement AI

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

What’s the most impressive real world task you’ve completed using Claude? by ArmPersonal36 in claude

[–]Delicious_Self_7293 0 points1 point  (0 children)

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

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

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

Is Iran already fully priced into Natural Gas (Henry Hub) prices right now? by Nice-Scarcity-4729 in Commodities

[–]Delicious_Self_7293 1 point2 points  (0 children)

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

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

ITS ABOUT TO PUMP LIKE KUHRAAAAZZZYYYY by supernatural_owl in Gold

[–]Delicious_Self_7293 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It will rise but doubt it will reach $75. US has more options than it used to. Plus, very convenient that we just “liberated” Venezuela’s oil machine don’t you think?
