Keith Ng @keithng.bsky.social · 01/09/2026Sure, this is Gmail trying to blackmail users into turning on "Smart Features", but actually... I'm into it. Full on Butlerian Jihad it - throw spell-check out and let me rawdog emails! 070
Keith Ng @keithng.bsky.social · 20/08/2026No, most of that is construction, plus 1000 jobs to maintain the place. It's a lot of computers, a lot of electrical gear and cooling systems. The maintenance is non-trivial! (Is it a 1000 jobs worth? No idea) 200
Keith Ng @keithng.bsky.social · 20/08/2026yeah we made some money but we have to pay the other google lots of money so actually we made no money at all so no tax oh no how sad 031

Keith Ng @keithng.bsky.social · 09/08/2026We've gone from "AI will save you so much money cos you can replace everyone with cheap grads who don't even need to know anything to prompt" to "what you think tokens grow on trees pay up losers and also hire specialist AI babysitters or your critical processes die" www.rnz.co.nz/news/busines... 1111743

Keith Ng @keithng.bsky.social · 04/08/2026I feel like investing so much energy to create a "factory" that relies entirely on "lol I'm spamming the T&Cs but they let me so it's fine" seems... a bit short-sighted. 170
