Agreed, However I also wonder how or if LLMs could help with what we don't know we need. With the processing pace of LLMs and the massive context the can processes at once. It seems like it could make the broader connections that are usually the harder to find more accessible.

In the last couple of months I just bought 12 months through a voucher that is no more so doubt I'd get a refund, so I've got some time to decide. I swear everything I look into deep enough has something going wrong with it, but I guess all we can do it take the battles we can handle.
Sure, that's fine, I tend to agree, I was drawing out the picture of the collateral, so it's considered as much or as little as it is worth, but at least considered.
I read it as he implicitly does understand that and is the reason he suggests getting a refund if that is your priority. He is just urging people to see nuance that there is collateral damage for the rest of the people that make mullvad too. A loose analogy would be, I disagree with Trump and I wish my country would divest from the USA, which is all well and good, but the workers don't have great protections and would likely be the first to hurt. Sure a majority of them voted for him I could rationalize, but that's not the same rationalisation companies use to layoff before they actually start to hurt.
The edge case is software development, for the bog standard stuff I write at work it probably helps me get work done about 15%-30% faster and with costs of $200-$400 USD a month the math actually works out. At current prices anyway. Also the electricity costs of running open weight models is even cheaper and if there is a pop HW prices may make that an obvious choice too. The worst case IMO would be a slow boil of prices to recoup the unsustainable growth then a slow decline to wherever normal ends up. In that case everyone is left indignant.
