A lot of secretly paid-for Cursor articles today. Side note: if anyone makes another fucking VSCode fork, I'm going to shit a brick.

An LLM with training data from 2021: 20-something "bro" interns rummaging through the IRS or Treasury’s servers under Musk's watch is comedic and chilling. They're probably "optimizing" data by replacing anything older than 2015 with a single Python script that prints "We're in the future, baby."

I should import some shitty commodity product, slap a MAGA sticker on it, sell it to morons, then give all the money to Planned Parenthood.

It's as if this doesn't make any sense, even remotely.
So let me get this straight.

Visa will provide processing on a largely unmoderated platform with vast amounts of unverified sexually explicit video, and around 50k CSAM reports yearly, but not for Pornhub, which requires uploaded ID, age-verification, model releases and moderates prior to upload.
Elon Musk's X partners with Visa on payment service in an effort to become an 'everything app,'
X is teaming up with Visa to soon offer a system for real-time payments on the social media platform.

"Let's just do a total rewrite of this mission-critical system we barely understand. What could possibly go wrong?" - Smart high IQ people who can program.
I'm sorry but I've seen so many companies in tech debt ditches from exactly this attitude:

6 junior devs with code generators didn't replace a considered architectural approach by experienced devs and 6 young adults quick at chatgpt don't replace a democracy
