…Jesus f*kin Christ. What the actual fuck

After his master Musk’s tirade on Xitter explicitly supporting H1Bs and shitting on the slightest criticism? I highly doubt it.

There won’t be a “Trump H1B crackdown”. The oligarch masters love their cheap imported labor a bit too much.

I don’t use Brave but honestly there aren’t many options left. I can’t wish for Orion to launch any sooner.

Sad to hear. India desperately needs industry; unemployment in the country is so extremely overwhelming it will have adverse effects on the whole world in many ways if not contained.

The article mostly blames red tape and bureaucracy - while I’m sure it’s a problem I highly doubt it’s the root cause. The root cause is just that investments everywhere are broadly down in general; there’s too much uncertainty in the current world to incite investor confidence.

There are plenty of back-office ticket-processing jobs that can, and have been, replaced by current-gen AI.

Good ideas are dime a dozen. Implementation is the game.

Universities may churn out great papers, but what matters is how well they can implement them. Private entities win at implementation.

Misleading title. From the article,

Asked whether “scaling up” current AI approaches could lead to achieving artificial general intelligence (AGI), or a general purpose AI that matches or surpasses human cognition, an overwhelming 76 percent of respondents said it was “unlikely” or “very unlikely” to succeed.

In no way does this imply that the “industry is pouring billions into a dead end”. AGI isn’t even needed for industry applications, just implementing current-level agentic systems will be more than enough to have massive industrial impact.

Get a large pack of nice, no-added-sugar Muesli. Get a regular supply of curd from your local dairy.

Add a wholesome serving of Muesli to ~8oz of curd (and maybe a few drops of honey) every night, and leave it in the fridge. You’re set for a nice, tasty and fulfilling breakfast each morning.

Instant Ramen is empty calories though

Anybody who used ANY library to process xslx knows MS keeps changing it :-)

I highly doubt that, also, people in corporate finance do not use libraries to process excel files.

About ranges… can you give me the range for whole columns minus 6 first records and 9 last records?

=OFFSET(first_cell, 7, COLUMNS(range_name), ROWS(range_name)-9-7) where range_name is the label given to the whole table and first_cell is its first cell.

Try to write a formula range which covers only lower half of the column which is typical setup in summing numbers( avoiding headers )

You can literally label ranges to use them as variables in Excel formulae, not to mention Excel Tables has more operations and features than you’ll ever need.

limits in columns and records

Unless you are working with an unfiltered, un-aggregated ledger dump straight out of your database (in which case you shouldn’t be let anywhere near an office computer), it’s rather hard to cross 1M+ rows and 16.4k columns in corporate finance.

ever changing formats across versions

The .xlsx format was introduced in 2007 (18 years ago) and hasn’t changed since. Not to mention you can still use all kinds of plaintext formats whenever you want.

Only those with no experience in corporate finance will find this surprising.

Excel is a powerful tool. The only ones who ridicule it are idiots who don’t understand anything.

Cromite doesn’t seem to allow opening supported links in other apps for some reason

Literally every other browser with uBlock Origin? I am still able to use it even on Chrome.

The fact that he invented Javascript alone makes him a villain. Everything he did after that is just complementary.

Chegg still exists!?

cynical (/ˈsɪnɪkl/) adjective

• concerned only with one’s own interests and typically disregarding accepted standards in order to achieve them.

Technically all corporations and enterprises in a free market have to adhere to that description, by design. Corporations are fundamentally social structures built for one and one purpose only - creating value for shareholders.

It is a pointless view that solves nothing. Flip it around, say “all (on both sides) are not guilty” and you might have a starting point.

Should I just declare to never talk about politics with them again since it’s pointless?

Yes. I thought that was obvious, when have you ever seen children being able to convert their parents?
