I’m not sure that Elon is feeling that much pain. His investors are, but he’s so rich he barely notices. That, or it might be the ketamine.

So, the teriffs will also cause Amazon deforestation to accelerate as land is clear cut to grow soy beans.

I don’t think that’s it. I think that this article is missing the point. Trump is manipulating the market in the most blatant of ways. He is intentionally crashing the market, telling people who listen to him when to sell and when to buy, then recinding the order that crashed the market.

He literally posted on truth social today to say that it is a great time to buy. Then, four hours later he rescinded the teriffs.

He is not caving to Wall Street. He is aiding insider trading at the largest scale ever seen.

Trump doesn’t give a shit about anyone but him. They just cut $55M intended to fund training for rural teachers (because who wants educated educators?) and now he wants to spend more than that on a mile long military parade celebrating his birthday. And it’s not even a milestone birthday, just a birthday.

From the article, Trump wanted to do something similar but, presumably smaller, in his first term but backed off after the price tag came to $92M. He instead opted for an event that ONLY cost $13M. How much do you think this one will cost? What will get cut to fund it?

Fucking narcissistic traitor… He’ll probably figure out how to grift a few tens of millions from this by selling tickets, too.

Jesus… Are the prices low due to the interest rate? Or is all property owned by people who can buy cash?

Nearly 26.6 million people in the U.S. rely on UnitedHealthcare Employer & Individual through insured and self-funded plans. In addition, we serve more than 7.5 million people with care and benefits services outside of the United States.

Rather than hundreds to thousands, I’m going to go with thousands to tens of thousands.

I don’t think that’s the point. The point is that Pete is sharing classified information with someone who doesn’t have clearances. “Who knows who she shared it with afterwards” is an indictment of Pete’s decision making and criminality, not an indictment of his wife. She could bear some responsibility, though, if she knowingly spread classified information after receiving it. But that is definitely the secondary point here.

It seems like displaying an ad at a stop light would be a safety issue since it makes it so you can onky look at the screen while moving.

You know, I was annoyed by that when I had to pay for an out-of-warranty update but now I’m pretty happy that my car is one year too old for automatic updates.

The vaccine isn’t 100% effective. If we inject him enough times, he’ll get measles eventually.

It’s in their contract that the results of a polygraph are grounds for dismissal alone. They have no grounds to sue.

“Eat the rich” gets flagged too, per another post I just saw.

I wonder, how many countries rely on the recommendations of the FDA to determine which vaccine strains to put in their vaccines for the year. Does Canada?

What part of the plate has lead? The plate itself or the paint?

Yeah, I’ll be 58 when my boy is 19… Gotta get in shape!

I suspect this is the goal here. Cut goverents services, figure out which parts squeak, then hire contractors to do that work at massive profits while either receiving kickbacks or just winning through insider trading.

Ultimately, it probably will lead to higher goverents costs.

This is not intended to minimize the fact that Israel is stealing Palastinian land. It is wrong for them to do so, wrong for them to run an apartheid regime,and very o viously wrong for them to commit genocide. This is just intended to give perspective to the size of the land they’re illegally taking this time.

1000 hectares is about 0.17% of the west bank.

Do you want the entire article in the headline or something? Go read the article and the journal article that it cites. They expand upon all of those terms.

Also, I’m genuinely curious, what do you mean when you say that there is “No such thing AS “AI””?

The ability of AI to write things with lots of boilerplate like Kubernetes manifests is astounding. It gets me 90-95% of the way there and saves me about 50% of my development time. I still have to understand the result before deployment because I’m not going to blindly deploy something that AI wrote and it rarely works without modifications, but it definitely cuts my development time significantly.

100% this. I generally use AI to help with edge cases in software or languages that I already know well or for situations where I really don’t care to learn the material because I’m never going to touch it again. In my case, for python or golang, I’ll use AI to get me started in the right direction on a problem, then go read the docs to develop my solution. For some weird ugly regex that I just need to fix and never touch again I just ask AI, test the answer it gices, then play with it until it works because I’m never going to remember how to properly use a negative look-behind in regex when I need it again in five years.

I do think AI could be used to help the learning process, too, if used correctly. That said, it requires the student to be proactive in asking the AI questions about why something works or doesn’t, then going to read additional information on the topic.
