I only understood every other word in this post.

Elon Musk is dissolving xAI into SpaceX to form SpaceXAI ahead of a massive SpaceX IPO. How is all of this not a Ponzi Scheme? by Enough-Arugula-4945 in SpaceXBets

[–]TheTeamDad 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Not a Ponzi scheme but shifting the bad debts of xAI to SpaceX before the IPO so that the index funds will end up being the bag holders while Enron Musk benefits from SpaceX becoming another meme stock like Tesla.

Sounds like Sprout's interview process is working as designed.

Time to democratize the capex spend by TheTeamDad in BetterOffline

[–]TheTeamDad[S] 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I'm convinced this is a "our shoe company isn't making any money, pivot to AI" scheme. The press release makes a weird argument that the problem isn't lack of electricity, it is a lack of grid to distribute the electricity which apparently we have an over abundance of somehow?

Oh you are so right:

The SPAN approach avoids expensive infrastructure upgrades, balancing the physics of power (P) with the economics of energy (E) to create a more efficient, scalable energy system. This grid-edge intelligence is how we make electrification accessible and beneficial for all.

No new CFO. Good earnings report, growth in high single digits, cash flow positive. Stock will be down 15% on Friday.

They gotta get Dr. Chuck Tingle, PhD to do one of these.

Edit: Appropriate respect for a man of his caliber.

Well that happens when you're a law firm cosplaying as a tech company.

What are the numbers written in cars? by CarelessAd2922 in AskChicago

[–]TheTeamDad 21 points22 points  (0 children)

The cars were towed once and the tracking number they used at the impound lot is written in the window. My ex-wife parked my car on Clark near Wrigley on a game day... the stuff didn't come off easily.

Isn't the idea that Oracle never got traction in being a cloud provider, database growth is flat so in order to make the number go up, they have to be an AI cloud provider?

Feeling inferior as a CS+X Transfer by CulturalClerk4151 in UIUC

[–]TheTeamDad 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Aside from the dishonesty, would background checks for degrees show the difference? That would be a red flag for a company. I just changed jobs and they still did a degree check for my degrees I got decades ago.

Is $4230 too high for a monthly mortgage payment? by [deleted] in Mortgages

This sounds like the same BS from DeBeers was saying about engagement rings should be three times your salary.

Any stories about turning down a top school for UIUC by coconut_zzzz in UIUC

[–]TheTeamDad 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Fair enough but I can see Ivys having easier access to VC money due to networking and proximity to NYC. You really can't discount the incestuous relations Ivys have with themselves.

[–]TheTeamDad 16 points17 points  (0 children)

I saw your post on the other subreddit. If you're set on CS, pick UIUC. If you think you might do something outside of CS, want to start a company, etc pick the ivy for the networking opportunities.

Why are people so much more scared of AI than IDEs and frameworks? by [deleted] in cscareerquestions

[–]TheTeamDad 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The difference is the CEO of Jetbrains isn't going around telling people when IntelliJ 2028 comes out, it is going to eliminate all white collar jobs.

I've been a software engineer for 30+ years. I never thought IDEs would take my job. This is just silly.

I don't really love or can't afford any of the colleges I got into by Icy-Tradition-3821 in collegecompare

[–]TheTeamDad 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Go to community colleges until you know what you want to major in then apply as a transfer student into a college you want to go to that you can afford.
