  • the comic is about using a machine learning algorithm instead of a hand-coded algorithm. not about using chatGPT to write a trivial program that no doubt exists a thousand times in the data it was trained on.

  • They don’t have to target the poor just because it’s easier. They are an enforcement agency, not a profit generating entity. Their budget is allocated and completely independent of any funds they recover.

    “Its more efficient to audit the poor” is also a blatant lie that gets tossed around so much people just accept it as truth. You get way higher ROI from auditing the wealthy, even with the added difficulties. When your resources are limited you should focus on the highest ROI, but every time they want money they threaten to do the opposite.

  • Accused by Israel whose evidence is confessions gained through interrogation, and screenshots of vaguely pro Palestine messages in an anonymous telegram people were using to coordinate aid efforts. Blatant insubstantial bullshit.

  • The way the IRS choose to allocate their time and resources is entirely their own discretion. I doubt anyone would mind at all if they just dedicated themselves to perusing high net worth tax dodgers to the exclusion of all others. Yet every time funding is brought up there’s this implicit threat that if they don’t get more money then they will just have to let the rich get away with it, but never anyone else.

  • Western governments would still have to be doing something to proactively prevent the genocide in Gaza to take the moral high ground from them.

    If you’re looking to vent moral outrage, many of the things described in the article aren’t too far from stuff that takes place right here in the states.

  • I think they benefit a lot from people assuming that they water their bills down for the GOP's benefit when the reality is that the right wing of the Dem party is larger and further right than most people believe. It's a party of Bidens and Clintons, not AOCs and Bernies.

  • Edge, unlike Internet Explorer, is not a system level dependency. There is a separately installed web view that handles that now, likely due to EU consumer protections.

  • strongly and eagerly supporting genocide is pretty much just the colloquial definition of Nazi, so IDK why a distinction is necessary. It's two Nazis on the ballot.

  • It's practically a gift to the GOP. It validates their complaints and offers their next president overreaching power to fuck with the border as they please. I hope they do vote it down.

  • If the majority of congress is on board, then why repeatedly circumvent them and put himself as the sole person responsible for these wildly unpopular actions during his reelection campaign?

  • The alternative I’m seething to bring about is not on a ballot.

  • Every time someone tells you how little power a president has to realize his political objectives I want you to think about how eager, steadfast, and unilateral Biden has been in assisting a foreign country in the waging of a genocidal war. Then imagine he put that kind of political will behind literally anything positive.

  • He has more money now than when he started giving “virtually all” of it away to (his) charity. This doesn’t stop rubes from using his fauxlanthropy as some kind of proof that not all billionaires are evil.

  • So she thinks she’s owed a job in a public office? I bet she thinks people who receive welfare are entitled.

  • People who treat driving as some kind of competition should have their license permanently revoked.

  • The same zionists are on the ballot for both young and old people. Israel support is bipartisan; voting won’t stop AIPAC and the Zionist lobby from buying whoever you vote for.
