  If you have positions in companies that are overvalued due to the AI bubble, you can sell them or better yet place a stop loss. That way you can still benefit from the bubble further inflating, with less risk that you hold the bag at the end.

  Other than that, invest in unrelated companies/ETFs with less weight on these companies. You’ll still crash with the rest of the market but should recover faster than those in the AI bubble.

  Don’t try to do anything fancy. You’ll have to gamble to time the pop and even if you’re right, you may still get outperformed by someone with just an S&P500 ETF over that time.

  Huh, neat. Not obfuscated Java Code is pretty much source available. But with the amount of reverse engineering the modders have done, I guess that was mostly true anyway.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨WinBoat is a new Linux app to run Windows apps with "seamless integration"⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Not sure where they use docker but Windows will run in a kvm VM. But if the file system is mounted (which is likely) it is still risky.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨WinBoat is a new Linux app to run Windows apps with "seamless integration"⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  How do these solutions apply the license for the Windows VM? Or do they just not use one? That’s a quick way to a cease and desist from msft if it gets big enough for them to care.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Google will require developer verification for Android apps outside the Play Store⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Welp I guess Android and iOS are becoming more alike. Just not in the direction I’d have liked.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Google will require developer verification for Android apps outside the Play Store⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Will just F-Droid have to do this or any app developer? If it’s the latter, I guess might as well go with an unofficial OS…

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨ChatGPT is referring to users by their names unprompted, and some find it 'creepy'⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  It’s almost like “AI” is just a silly marketing term and not actually descriptive of any of the tools you mentioned.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Ubisoft investors push for company sale as shares hit decade-low⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  I just hope Anno gets out of this in a good state. 1800 is probably the best one, if I ignore my nostalgia for 1602.

  I mean steam doesn’t care what you executable you start for a game. So they could just run any other program instead. Doesn’t feel like any real new tbh
