LMAO

how is this even possible? wtf

It absolutely is.

With the rise of ETFs and 401ks people are incentivized (literally) by the US Gov to put their money in the S&P500

And the "instead of picking a needle in the haystack, just buy the whole haystack" only works if there is actual stock picking going on and you get to ride that, but now when there's so much passive investing, it's just everybody buying the haystack, even if there is no needle

Like with the ETFs and 401ks, they will happily buy as much NVDA at its ATHs, it's quite literally massive liquidity feeding orders all the time, coming from retail's monthly paychecks

No... problem is that most investors are flooded with liquidity/money (thanks to QE and the rallies) thus alternative assets like Bitcoin are being flooded with liquidity (see: Blackrock BTC ETF)

We only would see a real valuation if there was a sudden need for liquidations, or a loss in faith in value, which would need some kind of an event, either rapid liquidation or some sudden shift in sentiment

I'm guessing it will be part of a larger sell-off in Tech and BTC will be lumped in⁶

It's an AI slop startup blog advertising their product, thats why.

I haven't heard of self taught programmers binging 15 minute YT videos. I can't recall the last time I did myself.. aside from conference talks and such its probably been at least 5 years since I watched something explaining things in the realm of programming.

Am I an outlier or am I missing something here?

You listed the K/N etc. ones as well, they're still a thing to this day...

And the situation was pretty much the same thing for Windows 7

I hate the LED street lamps so much. I can tell they've got a really spiky and unnatural spectrum, unlike the HPS lights, not to mention that they're white or bright yellow...

I miss the orange glow of sodium lamps that characterised cold dark and foggy english winter nights.

Yup.

Even to this day when I'm on the bus on the highway it's so relaxing and comforting to ride through the orange lights.. then the bright white ones come through and it's almost like instant anxiety that kicks in

Should be added to the title.....

with regards to the squid game, what says this isn't going to happen to most of big tech or even other industries?

Only a matter of time until "AGI".

Is anyone actually like super hyped about "Building AI Agents" with this and that? I wish I could get excited and just become a 100% AI Agwnt vibecoding all day and building AI agents to do AI stuff but like, I don't know?

Is there a crowd that just drools whenever a new way to "Build AI Agwnts" or "Agentic Workflows" comes out or something?
