I definitely lived through the dot com bubble. My memory of that was people registering domain names liked beer(dot)com and selling it for millions of dollars

There’s a few other classic commodity trades in there. Orange juice rings a bell. The SPX box trade guy is really interesting. All sorts of incredible history on there

"We did it, Patrick! We made a technological breakthrough!"

A place for all those who loathe AI to discuss things, post articles, and ridicule the AI hype. Proud supporter of working people. And proud booer of SXSW 2024.

AI, in this case, refers to LLMs, GPT technology, and anything listed as "AI" meant to increase market valuations.
