Phen

I don't own anybody at all.

There's some difference in the fences on the left side at the exact time the car passed by on the other lane. My guess is that the timing of the other car made the software interpret those changes in the input as something moving instead of simply something being different.

People would know what the last seconds before death actually feels like.

You would just carry over the traumas, without any good memories.

There's a typo there so I think it's fake.

Opinionated software.

I've never enjoyed anything at all in my life.

I rarely go farther from my home than I can go in a few minutes in my bycicle, so I never felt the need for a car. But once every few months I would need to go somewhere that is two hours away by bus, often with inconvenient bus timings (like either 6am or noon) - so I sometimes take an Uber instead.

When people her about me taking an Uber for such a "long" trip they call me insane, say that I'm wasting money and I should just get a car and those trips would be much cheaper. They never consider all the other costs involved in owning a car.

But then after a while people in my town started giving up on Uber and it became hard to find a driver whenever I might need one, so I finally got a driving license and bought myself a bike. People now were like "you'll see how it changes you, you'll use it for everything, you'll go out a lot more often and to everywhere with it". By the time I had a trip to make it was no longer turning on due to being stuck in a garage for so long. The counter showed less than 20 kilometers when I sold it.

A long time ago I joined a new remote-first company and in my first month they made an event where they brought in all employees from all over the world for a week at a farm hotel for a mix or meetings and leisure activities.

In one specific meeting the CEO was talking app this app that and I was very confused. The product was a server side program that had a web client, an electron app and two native mobile apps. But the CEO was talking about things that didn't make sense for those apps.

At some point I interrupted the meeting and asked for clarification: what are you talking about when you say app? It's not the mobile apps?

The CEO made a funny face and mentioned an engineer. I looked at him and he had a smug face and said something along the lines of "well, go on, explain it". CEO then explained he was talking about the new big project, which was basically an extension system for the server product - and the extensions would be called apps.

That night I found that engineer at the hotel bar and asked more details about it. Turns out he was the team lead on this project and he hated the term "apps" for it and had been very vocal about it before, saying among other things that it would cause confusion with the client apps we have. Most of the company agreed with him at the time but the CEO demanded it be named apps anyway.

These days everyone there thinks that naming it apps was the right call, but I always hated having to refer to them as "server extension app" to avoid any confusion, specially because I often worked on integrations with third party tools and those tools also had their own stuff called apps so instead of just saying something like "the Kabum extension" I had to say "the ChaChin server Kabum app" (as in this example's context there would also be multiple Kabum clients and ChaChin clients that would all be known as apps too)

So I guess it'll probably block screenshots too?

No, investors will slowly cook you into being a complete prick every time but you don't need to begin as one. If they fail to turn you into a prick then they'll replace you with someone else.

Only way to make it big without shitting on people is by using your own money and work to grow naturally - but even in that case you most likely will end up in some situation where someone will force you to choose between giving up either your humanity or your dreams.

That was already the state before AI - unless they've been using AI for years already.
