@Justicar What's got me tapping my noggin is how tech is fairing. Apparently Microsoft has AI writing a shit ton of low level code and has replaced floor lrvel coders with ai engineers that get this... tell the AI what to do. I am a bit sceptical on this considering other AI 'innovations' were indians or koreans doing shit. They must be getting gov doles as well to push funding at stuff I'd imagine too because where's all this spending into their ads and growth if consumers are tapped.
@FinalDresdonation i am not in the picture since i do not inest in the tech sector. It could be uptick in azure sales, ads in windows..who knows what else. Inflation also pushes prices up and i doubt they report adjusted numbers.
