[04:42]	schestowitz[TR2]	(out of respect i never mention names of people in Sirius)
[04:42]	IsambardPrince	So the company evacuates the people they care about, then in the case of RCA, they sent in the Indian guy.
[04:42]	schestowitz[TR2]	then it's racism
[04:43]	IsambardPrince	Nobody came back to RCA and shot anyone, thank God, but there were some suicides.

[04:49]	schestowitz[TR2]	we   still have  a long story to cover this week

[04:52]	schestowitz[TR2]	and smith the real microsoft boss in charge
[04:52]	schestowitz[TR2]	said nadella was wearing the skirt
[04:52]	MinceR	which smith?
[04:52]	IsambardPrince	He had a Business degree and did not understand or care what the fuck people did there.
[04:52]	schestowitz[TR2]	brad smith
[04:52]	IsambardPrince	And yelled at them despite not knowing what their job even was.
[04:52]	IsambardPrince	Or how to do it himself.
[04:52]	schestowitz[TR2]	IsambardPrince: that's the thing with MBAs
[04:52]	IsambardPrince	I cannot stand people like this.
[04:52]	schestowitz[TR2]	we had a chat in a jamiacan plance about some hours ago
[04:52]	schestowitz[TR2]	i said the MBAs are winning
[04:53]	schestowitz[TR2]	they see themselves as "businesman" or "buseinesspersons"
[04:53]	IsambardPrince	The MBAs are victims of their own success.
[04:53]	schestowitz[TR2]	the latter is gender-neutral
[04:53]	schestowitz[TR2]	as wiomen too can be that
[04:53]	IsambardPrince	Look at all the graduates who are not even finding jobs with one suddenly.
[04:53]	schestowitz[TR2]	some see themsleves as animal carers
[04:53]	schestowitz[TR2]	acrivists
[04:53]	schestowitz[TR2]	peoiple who would go to africa

[04:53]	MinceR	01 055226 < IsambardPrince> And yelled at them despite not knowing what their job even was.
[04:53]	schestowitz[TR2]	no monetary gain
[04:53]	MinceR	that's so familiar
[04:53]	schestowitz[TR2]	the MBAs are all money
[04:53]	schestowitz[TR2]	they equate success with capital
[04:53]	schestowitz[TR2]	which is of course wrong
[04:53]	schestowitz[TR2]	and would dertail society
[04:53]	schestowitz[TR2]	if people never had any goodwill
[04:53]	schestowitz[TR2]	but anyway
[04:54]	schestowitz[TR2]	the context was,
[04:54]	schestowitz[TR2]	what does techrights do
[04:54]	schestowitz[TR2]	the conclusion was,
[04:54]	IsambardPrince	Yes, it was a tidal shift when the MBAs came in. It used to be if your employees are happy they will run the company and do it well.
[04:54]	schestowitz[TR2]	contacting politicians is always a waste of time
[04:54]	schestowitz[TR2]	they don't car
[04:54]	schestowitz[TR2]	ehtey don't understan
[04:54]	schestowitz[TR2]	they don't listen
[04:54]	IsambardPrince	If the employee has a problem, then the company has a problem.
[04:54]	schestowitz[TR2]	so the site is mostly educational
[04:54]	IsambardPrince	And now it's just all these MBAs circling around like sharks.
[04:54]	schestowitz[TR2]	for people who loook to understand
[04:54]	schestowitz[TR2]	and it's mostly run by people who 1) educates 2) did researchg 3) valued science and facts
[04:55]	IsambardPrince	If the employee has a problem, you amputate them.
[04:55]	IsambardPrince	And find someone else.
[04:55]	schestowitz[TR2]	so the bottom line is, using RCA example
[04:55]	IsambardPrince	That's the thinking now.
[04:55]	schestowitz[TR2]	we are the designers and makers
[04:55]	schestowitz[TR2]	the "newsrooms" are just MBAs
[04:55]	schestowitz[TR2]	looking to sell ads and "perception management"
[04:55]	schestowitz[TR2]	"brand"
[04:55]	IsambardPrince	The reason my dad was tolerated there even though he was so odd, is that everyone in his department was odd, but they knew what they were doing.
[04:55]	IsambardPrince	So people just left them alone.
[04:56]	schestowitz[TR2]	you said people clipped their toenails there
[04:56]	schestowitz[TR2]	ands put those in the drawer
[04:56]	IsambardPrince	Yes, very odd.
[04:56]	schestowitz[TR2]	like trophies
[04:56]	schestowitz[TR2]	which is.. weird
[04:56]	schestowitz[TR2]	i mean, ok, slip... but at the office
[04:56]	schestowitz[TR2]	?
[04:56]	schestowitz[TR2]	*clip
[04:56]	IsambardPrince	He filled entire drawers with them.
[04:56]	schestowitz[TR2]	your dad collected porn vhs tapes
[04:57]	schestowitz[TR2]	that is less weird
[04:57]	schestowitz[TR2]	then filing nails
[04:57]	schestowitz[TR2]	as in
[04:57]	schestowitz[TR2]	LITERALLY filing nails
[04:57]	schestowitz[TR2]	in some cabinet
[04:57]	schestowitz[TR2]	that's... gross
[04:57]	IsambardPrince	Yes, dad was a porn hoarder.
[04:57]	schestowitz[TR2]	*than
[04:57]	IsambardPrince	Well, the reason I think people can do it more privately now is it's not a bunch of VHS tapes and magazines anymore.
[04:57]	schestowitz[TR2]	now it's drm
[04:57]	schestowitz[TR2]	and streaminhg
[04:57]	schestowitz[TR2]	and streaming is mostly DRM now

[06:14]	IsambardPrince	schestowitz[TR2], Watching Eyes Wide Shut. They finally uncensored it and put it on blu ray and I just never watched this one.
[06:14]	IsambardPrince	Noted a few things that seemed deliberate.
[06:14]	IsambardPrince	I had never heard of an OAT eye chart, but he had one in his office.
[06:15]	IsambardPrince	The second line from the bottom says "TAX". In a film about the subtle influence about money.
[06:15]	IsambardPrince	Then a container of "Snackwell's" cookies on the counter.
[06:15]	IsambardPrince	They don't make those anymore, but they were used to make a point. The "Snackwell's Effect".
[06:15]	IsambardPrince	It's a form of induced demand.

[06:31]	IsambardPrince	LOL
[06:32]	IsambardPrince	I forgot about the scene in this movie with Milich and the costume store.
[06:32]	IsambardPrince	He walked in there in the middle of the night to find two Japanese men over 50 with his 15 year old daughter.
[06:32]	IsambardPrince	So he locks them in there for the police.
[06:42]	IsambardPrince	God, how much cash does this guy carry with him in this movie.
[06:42]	IsambardPrince	So far that's $200 for the hooker that he just ended up talking to, then $200 over whatever the costume rental was for the inconvenience of waking up Milich in the middle of the night, and $74.50 for cab fare, in 1999. 
[06:43]	IsambardPrince	That's gotta be about $1000 or more in cash carried around NYC 26 years ago when it was probably worth three times what it is now.

[06:44]	IsambardPrince	Then $74.50 at what cabs cost back then was probably at least 20-30 miles out of the city.
[06:44]	IsambardPrince	How long has he been outside? Why isn't his wife hammering his cell phone (he said he was just going to someone's house because her husband died), and why is the party only now starting?
[06:47]	schestowitz[TR2]	IsambardPrince: what is your goodwill value
[06:47]	schestowitz[TR2]	you have to love how ibm gives an accurate figure
[06:47]	schestowitz[TR2]	60.706 billion dollar
[06:47]	schestowitz[TR2]	why is there a 6 there?
[06:47]	schestowitz[TR2]	why 60.706 billion dollar and not 60.705 billion dollar?
[06:47]	schestowitz[TR2]	how do they make up these numbers?
[06:47]	schestowitz[TR2]	put another way,
[06:48]	schestowitz[TR2]	who gets PAID to make up those numbers
[06:48]	schestowitz[TR2]	?

[06:49]	schestowitz[TR2]	goodwill?
[06:49]	IsambardPrince	That makes me worth $10 billion of goodwill.
[06:49]	schestowitz[TR2]	mmmm
[06:49]	IsambardPrince	:D
[06:49]	schestowitz[TR2]	pseudo-science
[06:49]	schestowitz[TR2]	i can give you a certificate
[06:49]	schestowitz[TR2]	to certify - with seal - you have $1352,200 in "goodwill"
[06:49]	schestowitz[TR2]	take that to the bank
[06:49]	schestowitz[TR2]	and ask for a loan, ryan
[06:50]	IsambardPrince	Maybe with my $10 billion worth of goodwill I can be like Tom Cruise in this movie.
[06:50]	IsambardPrince	And go to one of those perverted rich people sex parties.
[06:50]	IsambardPrince	Where they pray to Satan or something and burn incense and wear masks.
[06:50]	IsambardPrince	:D
[06:50]	schestowitz[TR2]	graveley   told girls he was "worth" 200 million
[06:50]	schestowitz[TR2]	seriously

[06:52]	IsambardPrince	schestowitz[TR2], One of the J6 rioters strangled his girlfriend, chased her down the hallway, bashed her head into the wall a few times, held her down and raped her, and then urinated in her mouth.
[06:52]	schestowitz[TR2]	trump: "nasty woman"
[06:52]	IsambardPrince	Sounds like he should get a job at Github.
[06:52]	schestowitz[TR2]	not yet

[06:54]	schestowitz[TR2]	she voted trump
[06:54]	IsambardPrince	schestowitz[TR2], That rioter wasn't even the worst one.
[06:54]	schestowitz[TR2]	maybe he reminded her of some exes
[06:54]	IsambardPrince	There were people even worse than that.
[06:54]	IsambardPrince	Like the Illinois guy that raped a 7 year old. Now he goes to a state prison for 19 years.
[06:54]	IsambardPrince	Trump let him out of federal.
[06:55]	IsambardPrince	These people should have been executed a long time ago.
[06:55]	IsambardPrince	Anyone who would do that to a woman, or a child.
[06:55]	IsambardPrince	They should just be shot.
[06:55]	IsambardPrince	Send their family a bill for the bullet.

[21:30]	schestowitz[TR2]	The terms and expressions "AI", "machine learning", "chatting to computers"...etc are being thrown about a lot lately. I would argue even with much lack of context, nuance or thought. Though that isn't my main point to discuss here. Instead, I want to focus at what I think people are seeing or at least seeking in these things, beyond the emotional aspect.
