How much longer until cloud CEOs are a thing of the past? Wouldn't an AI sufficiently intelligent to solve technical problems at scale also be able to run a large corporate division? By the time this is actually viable, we are all fucked.

I'm not projecting, I'm trying to get the award.

Unfortunately, they sleep very well at night.

These articles are starting to annoy me. There's no yardstick that says "Economy: terrible <-> great". It depends on who you are, how much income you make, what kind of assets you hold, what kind of debt you hold, etc. Ask different people and you will get different answers.

If you poll congressmen regarding the health of the economy and then poll the next 100 people that walk out of your local Dollar General, you'll probably get a lot different answers.

We can talk specifics like inflation, rates of household saving, etc. but just trying to say "the economy is great/terrible" is overly reductive and doesn't really take into account the country as a whole.

Given that there will be more people like Lia Thomas who want to compete at the highest levels in sports and that people who were born male can have natural advantages at sports, doesn't this mean that over time people who are born male will displace all people who were born female in sports, leaving no biological women in the top slots? If this trend continues, I don't see why this wouldn't happen over years and years. No matter how one feels about this issue this would feel like a profoundly unfair outcome.

Found the law, please send it along

An Act Regarding Legal Tender at Establishments

Be it enacted by the Senate and House of Representatives of the United States of America in Congress assembled,

Section 1: For purposes of this Act, "Store" shall mean any entity which offers goods or services for sale to consumers; "Legal Tender" shall denote any form of payment acknowledged by the United States Government as valid for repayment of debts. Such includes coins and currency issued by the U.S. Treasury, checks drawn against accounts at insured financial institutions, and electronic transfers; "Consumer" shall refer to an individual purchasing goods or services from a store.

Section 2: No store shall refuse to accept legal tender as payment for its offered goods or services within the establishment's premises; Violation of this section shall lead to immediate cessation of operating license for such store, and repeat offenders may face criminal penalties.

Section 3: In case a consumer attempts to pay for goods or services using legal tender, and the store declines such tender, then said products shall be deemed free for the consumer; Stores must provide these free products regardless of their state of damage or tampering during purchase attempt; Receipt or proof of attempted transaction can act as evidence in disputes between consumer and store.

Section 4: This Act does not apply to online transactions primarily utilizing third-party platforms or credit/debit cards as primary means of payment; Currency exchange houses, pawnshops, and other businesses mainly dealing in non-legal tender payments are exempted from this law.

If you hate Democrats and Republicans, don't vote for them, but recognize that abstaining has consequences as well.

Folks, let me tell you something about this so-called comedian Jimmy Kimmel. He thinks he's so funny with his jokes and pranks, but he's just plain boring. And his jibes are weak, they don't even pack a punch! I've seen better comedy from my golden toilet seat.

And don't get me started on that Oscars thing. What kind of awards show is it where the host makes fun of someone who has done more for this country than he ever will? It's disgraceful, frankly.

But you know what? I won't let the little man bring me down. I'll keep doing what I do best – making America great again, one day at a time. And when I run for president in 2024, I'm going to make sure Jimmy Kimmel never cracks another joke about me again. Believe me, folks, it's gonna be huge.

My B. They are just an inconsiderate moron in the morning.

Other countries should be following our great example. Not only do we have the best legislators, but in their spare time they are also financial geniuses, doubling their salary easily. Other countries are envious that our government workers are so efficient and financially savvy.

So exhausting you'll have a meltdown?
