I can't tell you how many times in my old job I warned that a change in technology would not result in a change in productivity because the technology was implemented not in response to identifying a business problem and finding a well-matched solution but because some guy wanted it.
"More than half of CEOs report seeing neither increased revenue nor decreased costs from AI, despite massive investments in the technology, according to a PwC survey of 4,454 business leaders."

US Secretary of Treasury Scott Bessent:
What I am urging everyone here to do is sit back, take a deep breath, and let things play out. The worst thing countries can do is escalate against the United States.

If Trump is getting “bad advice” about Greenland, does that mean he has multiple personalities?

the U.S. politics and polling punditry press simply acts as if propaganda doesn't exist when discussing electoral voting habits. This country's entire information system is an open sewer, agitprop saturates everything, informed consensus is under assault -- yet this just doesn't get a mention.

This dynamic is basically unchanged in the decades I've followed US politics. The right raises a bullshit bad-faith objection, Dems try to change policy to address it, the right just repeats the bad-faith objection, Dems try again ... forever.
So in the end, what does this article amount to? Republicans are telling the same lie about welfare that they've told for 40 years despite consistent efforts — including many led by Democrats — to restrict and police it.
And in response, Democrats should restrict and police it even more.

Absolutely rooting for an Indiana blowout now.
I am currently standing five feet from Tim Tebow, who is chatting with Marco Rubio, and to my other side it’s Michael Irvin chatting with Stephen A. Smith.
A lot going on at the moment on the Miami sideline.

I get what they’re going for, since you could travel between all of the different sites by car, but the 2024 Summer Olympics were literally split between Paris and Tahiti.
Competitions will be hosted at 25 venues spanning an area of more than 8,000 square miles. Here's what's happening at each of the four main clusters. n.pr/45mxm3M

“we might go to war with Europe over Greenland” is not normal behavior and cannot be slotted into normal political rhetoric by people who would like to reestablish normal political relations with Europe someday
