ITT you are the CEO of StackOverflow, how do you make more money now that LLMs are cutting into your profits?
I say we gamify the website. >add a virtual currency, loot boxes/gacha mechanics, and a f2p live service model >add paid cosmetics which you can add to your profile >each season we will have a battle pass >add several premium subscription tiers >do collabs with famous IPs, like John Wick, Family Guy, Dragonball, Jujutsu Kaisen, and Naruto >market heavily to children so that we have lifelong users >pay influencers/streamers to stream our website and praise all the new game mechanics. People like xQc. He doesn't have any background in programming/CS? Who cares, just pay him to stream our website. It's just that simple.
Larry Ellison, the chairman and founder of Oracle was a huge support for Trump's 2016 election campaign. During Trump's term, he asked Trump to force TikTok to move their data centers to the US. TikTok's data centers were then moved from Singapore to Texas. A couple of years ago, Oracle was caught selling massive amounts of user data to China. The case wasn't made public, and nothing happened after it was leaked.
I remembered just now, a few years ago, on /jp/, I was asking for help on something, and for some reason, I said my dad died, now, I have never met my dad in my whole life, but I know that he's not dead because I have his facebook account, anyways, I lied about it for some reason to get someone to feel pity and help me with my issue (pretty sure I was trying to run some obscure old doujin game)
anyways, this guy, out of nowhere, started insulting me and making fun of my dead (not really) father, I have to ask myself, how does that even happen? what is he mad about? that my dad is dead? that i cant run the game and am asking for help? I ended up making a thread shortly after that day, I think to lust after Seija (pic related), and the guy recognized one of my pics and started insulting me AGAIN, and im like, what? how the hell are you still thinking about my dead father (that I lied about), I didnt even do anything to you?
I want to hear if any of you guys have stories like that or if this is just a me being unlucky moment, happened in 2021 i think but I still think about it when someone is mad at me online, imagine if this sort of stuff happened IRL
