VCs are so absurdly dumb, it’s mind-boggling. Absolute toddler brains that will be amazed by the slightest bit of flattery combined with jingling car keys in front of their idiotic faces. If every single VC dropped dead tomorrow, it would literally just be a net positive for the world, which is not something you can say about many jobs.
Aren’t white collar jobs the most likely to be replaced?
If factories existed anymore it would be factory jobs. White collar jobs will be replaced in the same way they’re always replaced which is that computers get a little better and as a result you don’t need to hire the same number of people per unit of work. Or you can hire the same people and have more work.
I’m conflicted… such a punchable face… but what if it bursts on impact?
Wear gloves
The only reason these people are allowed to speak freely is because there is no
Who’s gonna buy your shit?
The invisible hand
The contradictions are sharpening
Tech companies don’t even sell products, it’s all speculative value

Fair fair, but it is more removed from that reality than companies in the past is my point there
context
The egg card in Balatro gains 3 dollars of value per round, which you can redeem by selling the card. This card has the eternal tag which means it cannot be sold, and the rental tag, which means it costs 3 dollars per round just to have in your hand. In effect, this card earns money that you can’t access while charging you money for the privilege of doing so, and also prvents you from doing something more productive with the joker slot. – It’s effectively a parasite
Yeah but if you get the ceremonial knife you can get rid of it and it becomes useful… wait we might be onto something here
Knife doesn’t eat eternal jokers unfortunately
Hey AI plumber, the AI drywallers covered your domestic water before you tested it. What do you AI do about?

Tesla’s humanoid robo plumber shows up, walks directly into a wall, and catches on fire. The clogged pipe is no longer a problem because your house burned down.

“Every great venture capitalist in the last 70 years has missed most of the great companies of his generation… if it was a science, you could eventually dial it in and have somebody who gets 8 out of 10 [right],” the investor reasoned. “There’s an intangibility to it, there’s a taste aspect, the human relationship aspect, the psychology — by the way a lot of it is psychological analysis,” he added.
Venture capitalism: famously the only human activity in history that involves human relationships, psychology, or aesthetic taste.
Is he saying all there is to VC’ing is picking the right startup to back? What the fuck is “work” then. Vibe checking the startup founder? He’s right then, it’s not going to be replaced with AI because its a useless fucking job. God, these people belong in the
When your job is just “I/my friends have a lot of money to gamble,” it turns out there’s not much to it.
Well you also have to give dumbfuck interviews about things you fundamentally misunderstand and (apparently) participate in dozens of fascist group chats at once. Truly the pinnacle of human behavior and development.
gambler telling you they have a system maaaaaaan
I’d bet real money that if you gave ChatGPT $5 billion and had it “”“invest”“” it would do as well or better than most of these idiots. Poster children for “born on third base and think they hit a triple.”
