the fact the world functions at all while running on matryoshka doll levels of bullshit and duplicity is equal parts impressive, terrifying, and depressing.

Think about this for a moment.

We made bullshit generators that ingest all the actual knowledge we feed them and manage to vomit out bullshit that's so close to perfect most of the time that we now need a second bullshit generator to re-bullshit that output into a more palatable form of consumption for us. And it's being sold to us for an additional $4.99 a month.

Fuck me.

which Horwitz is charging $4.99 a month to use after a three-email free trial

what. Why does a thing that inserts typos into your email need a monthly subscription that costs as much as other services that have far higher costs? What's changing about typos month-to-month that people need to always be on the latest version?

idk that somehow makes it even funnier to me.

Harvard startup bros have learned anything with cultural relevance and good branding can make money, even if the service doesn’t meaningfully improve your life

My first thought was “how is this anti-German”, then I went back and reread the title. 😂
