  • If the Dems weren't the Bottom of the couple, they'd go on the offensive and use this ruling to get privacy and data mining sanity installed. Since tech are some of their biggest donors in the last 20 years, that won't happen.

    The perks of having all political power purchasable.

  • In every job that must be done

    There is an element of fun

    You find the fun and snap! The job's a game

    And every task you undertake

    Becomes a piece of cake

    A lark! A spree!

    It's very clear to see

    That a spoonful of sugar helps the medicine go down

    The medicine go down, the medicine go down

    Just a spoonful of sugar helps the medicine go down

    In a most delightful way

    A robin feathering his nest

    Has very little time to rest

    While gathering his bits of twine and twig

    Though quite intent in his pursuit

    He has a merry tune to toot

    He knows a song

    Will move the job along

    Oh, a spoonful of sugar helps the medicine go down

    The medicine go down, the medicine go down

    Just a spoonful of sugar helps the medicine go down

    In a most delightful way

    The honey bees that fetch the nectar

    From the flowers to the comb

    Never tired of ever buzzing to and fro

    Because they take a little nip

    From every flower that they sip

    And hence (And hence)

    They find (They find)

    Their task is not a grind...


    The 7 dwarves talked about "whistle while you work", many others have said music.

    Personally I gamify tasks and try to make them more efficient, or if they're maxed out, enjoy the time I've saved and the efficient task and smooth running of a process. Then the focus becomes the process rather than the sometimes tedious nature of things.

  • NYT suppressing genocide coverage in Palestine and questioning anything but lockstep support for Israel then wondering why authoritarians messaging landing so we'll.

    NYT are clowns, lost all credibility after backing invasion of Iraq in 2003 despite no evidence and UN security resolution against it.

  • You can no longer choose the shapes, AI hallucinates them for you. If they don't fit your desired shape you can pay-per-side-polygon to have a fixed number of sided shape added. mS pAInt

  • Agree, and "defer" can mean organizationally as in needing someone else's input, knowledge, support, buy-in...vs. running an autocratic hierarchy, which the weak and stupid prefer. Defer also means acknowledging the value and contributions of others and compensating them accordingly.

    If I had to boil a lot of the churn in the water about AI, it's by stupid people trying to sell even stupider, desperate people the idea the immense knowledge of the earth (or even that of their accounting or customer service practices) will be within their grasp and they won't need others anymore. Of course, some say great cut headcount, because they didn't understand the work others do in the first place.

    While most won't fully take an approach as extreme, and any AI use will likely be more organic, there will be outliers who receive the bulk of the press.

    Saying you don't need X position in early 2025 based on the state of AI is like declaring in 1996 libraries are dead.

  • Absent a functioning, fair political and judicial system, all sorts of things are going to start reappearing on the US landscape that have been dormant for generations. Very doubtful in the current environment, but when transparent political retribution is transpiring and powerful, rich folks are on the receiving end, there will come a point where drastic measures will become among the most reasonable options they have.

  • Lol, MGM owns most of the strip and it's entire enterprise value is ~$40B. Not market cap, that's only $9B. In the year of our Lord 2025, I'm not sure I see courts making for a fair fight when you throw in politically targeted retribution that would come.
