Pass the bong for every tech CEO who doesn’t have a fucking clue how the world works and how regular people live.

@Kevin Beaumont Hilarious. Let them do this, that's going to be a nice fat disappointment.

@GossiTheDog My ideal position is basically "the grunt that knows shit." I have absolutely zero desire for a management position, and I'd happily spend the rest of my career continuing to do frontline "grunt work" because that's the fun part of work to me. Anything else is just so absolutely soul-suckingly horrible to me that I'd rather move to Hell, Michigan and take up chicken farming.

@GossiTheDog

He's right about the change coming.

He just does not think he will be in the group affected.

@GossiTheDog As has been said by smarter people than me... this AI-based company is a wet dream of the lowIQ managerial class: they want a workforce that won't tell them, "That request will cost you X weeks of schedule - what should we postpone?" or "No, that's impossible", or even worse, "No, that's stupid."

@GossiTheDog this is a dumb story because there is literally no longterm health impact from smoking for 99% of people if you stop by 45 because the actual risk is cardiological, and these kids are like 27. That's why Boomers who smoked until they turned 40-something will outlive us all.

@Emerson61 yeah, none of that is true. https://www.nhs.uk/better-health/quit-smoking/why-quit-smoking/understanding-the-true-impact-of-smoking/

[emerson61@toot.community]

@GossiTheDog an individual 27yo smoking because it's cool for five years is statistically going to die from another cause. This framing makes it seem like they're irradiating themselves on the premise they'll cure cancer in a year. These people are upping their risk of cancers by net 0.1% over a lifetime and this coverage is playing into them thinking it's badass.

@GossiTheDog To be fair to him, it's called "Disrupt", not "Make Sense".

@GossiTheDog what a fucking doofus. Doesn’t even deserve the “bozo” moniker.

[random_seed@bitbang.social]

@europlus @GossiTheDog I think they’re thinking that they need a good twit as a figure head so that they can just hide his body when the shit hits the fan, and no one will care or notice.
