How could a representative from a place colloquially referred to as “Flash Flood Alley” have known that it would [checks notes] flood?

What is whataboutism, Alex?

Head end

And

Leg end

For those who are slow like me

DXY measures the US dollar against every other currency. So if the US dollar in isolation had a bunch of inflation (e.g. because the US government printed a ton of money), then that would be reflected in DXY.

But if every major currency printed a ton of money at the same time, then DXY would not change because it’s only relative to other currencies.

So it doesn’t calculate inflation directly, but it’s generally correlated with it.

SPY is up 3% YTD while DXY (which measures the value of a dollar) is down 9% YTD. If you own shares of SPY, then you hold them in dollars, so the real change in value of your stock is [share price] x 1.03 x 0.91, which translates to being down over 6%.

BUT not only is your investment value down, if you live in the US you presumably get paid in dollars as well. Which means you’ve gotten a 9% pay cut since the start of the year.

There are a lot of Walmart heirs, and even collectively I doubt they own enough shares to control the company at this point.

The underlying neural network tech is the same as what the best chess AIs (AlphaZero, Leela) use. The problem is, as you said, that ChatGPT is designed specifically as an LLM so it’s been optimized strictly to write semi-coherent text first, and then any problem solving beyond that is ancillary. Which should say a lot about how inconsistent ChatGPT is at solving problems, given that it’s not actually optimized for any specific use cases.

And the other guy is way too thin to be Trump

Hey bro I already know you aren’t succeeding in life, being this terminally mad online is definitely not the hallmark of someone whose got it figured out.

I was just trying to help you out. Looks like you’ll just have to keep suffering tho.

Bro every one of your recent comments is you being mad af. Maybe reflect on that.

Also the fact that your instinctive response to someone disagreeing with you is to immediately lob insults calling everyone else dumb makes you look insecure about your intelligence.

It was literally a binary election. That’s how FPTP works. In a two party system it’s ridiculous to expect a candidate that has your exact values on every single issue.

But sure protest vote for the next 50 years and see where that gets you.

Right, I forgot that Trump won because of how pro-Palestine he is.

Well that rock hard source has swayed my opinion

Yes? We fund KSA who fund the RSF. If the US wanted to end the conflict they could, easily. But it’s not a convenient political pressure point for bad faith actors like yourself.

Literally yes, the US funds the KSA who fund the RSF

Did you know in Sudan (5x the population of Israel/Gaza) there is a literal ethnic genocide going on right now? As in Arabs going village to village and straight up murdering people based entirely on how dark their skin is? And this started before the 2024 election. How many times have you posted about that?

Funny how all of these disingenuous anti-Biden and anti-DNC posters are so conveniently playing into the Republicans’ hands by making Israel a single issue voting point.
