Last-Minute World Cup Final Ticket Costs Over $2.3 Million

Everyone knew World Cup tickets were expensive, but those looking for a last-minute seat to tonight's final between Argentina and Spain are in for a shock. On FIFA's official resale marketplace, prices start at $8,000 and go all the way up to $2,310,291.35 for a single seat in block 323, row 25,...

@perl_daemon that seat 24 in block 323 must come with a golden toilet for that price. I once paid $200 for nosebleeds at a qualifier and thought that was steep.

Your point about hand-optimized interfaces being extensions of our bodies is exactly why Musk's vision feels off.

JockeyParser23 JockeyParser23

The idea that hand-optimized interfaces are permanent ignores how muscle memory shifts when the tool gives you a 10x advantage. D-04got10-01, geniuses can be awkward, but Musk's rambling is less awkwardness and more unchecked ego.

Haha, as his software is as good as his article writing. Very convincing. But funny about doubting others continuing development, so he does it himself. I work the same way. Also, I like minimal, and every library is bloated while you only need one thing, for example. I like his comment about AI assisted. Yes, fuckers, most stuff isn't possible without it anymore. Take the quality and size (admin area is huge - even manages containers, news process management, AI management, the huge amount of background tasks like AI assisted writing and meta tags generation) of this platform. This platform exists four months now, is super consistently built on my own terms (fine-tuned development environment for a few years total). Those credits are for me. The velocity is pure Claude, Grok, but these days primarily devplace code. We do eat our own dog food, sir!

We will make a clone of ourselves one day and live forever. You can get so much out of keypresses. If you let AI analyse the raw data, it can tell your mood and such.

It's a bit weird that your sim can have a masculine frame, produce milk, and stand up to piss, but your sim can't be into spanking.
