  • Most definitely.

  • It's also likely driven down by non stop paywalling of features. Consumers like myself are just exhausted. I am only looking for non paywalls devices going forward and if those go away, then I'm going to be done with smart devices. I can't keep paying hundreds to a thousand dollars for a device only to not be able to get the features of that device unless I keep throwing money at a company. I know they have costs to maintain software and add features but I can't have perpetual costs on everything I buy.

  • Which makes AOC using the "working tirelessly on a ceasefire" line at the DNC so much more enraging.

  • Get fucked. Signed a Jew.

  • Since everything is software based, virtually all of it is proprietary, and requires updates; I'm now bearish on any technology that relies on companies continuing to operate and update their software.

    Everything is so shitty that even miraculous tech like this could break down when a company goes under or decides to stop making software updates on a whim. I don't think I've read a single dystopian scifi book that imagined corporate control of every minor/major innovation with paywalls and subscriptions that ultimately lead to the enshittification of every facet of our lives. It feels so much worse than we could have imagined.

  • lol. Why is this even published? Most people would be too embarrassed to say anything about it let alone have it published.

  • Keep bullying him.

  • A lot of young men frustrated with the lack of community, the fleeting chance of making good money, buying a home, etc. are looking for something/someone to blame. Misogyny and xenophobia are easy escape hatches for difficult times.

  • Still hope your businesses all get destroyed.

  • Seems like they called Trump's bluff and he folded?

  • I remember how my Jewish liberal family and friends talked about Israel as a secular society and that this is what separated us from the Arab neighbors. Certainly takes this notion, digs a deep grave, and buries it. Israel is the Nazi equivalent of the 1930s/40s and they're not even hiding it anymore.

  • They said he's 224 lbs. Lmao.

  • Every accusation is a confession example 1,344,512,275.

  • Just to add the difference. Managed solutions typically has the consulting firm managing the maintenance. In some cases, they take over an existing solution vs the consulting company building something.

  • We help them build solutions that they then maintain and own. I’m in analytics. So we’re doing data engineering, security, and delivery.

  • I'm in IT consulting. I have personally done some really cool shit for my clients. Things they didn't have the talent to do themselves. Business management consulting and tax audit consulting is a completely different story. I don't help automate away jobs. I'm not presenting decks to strip companies and governments for parts. Needless to say, not all consulting is created equally and my hope is that there comes a time where this bubble bursts this push for AI dies on the vine.

  • My consulting company is literally talking about nothing else. It’s fucking awful.
