"For one thing, there is “dynamic pricing,” Amazon’s AI algorithm-fueled system of constantly adjusting prices to reflect the customer’s perceived willingness to pay. That means charging each customer as much as possible, and also makes cost comparisons meaningless."

Two years ago I was diagnosed with colon cancer, and after surgery and chemo, I've been pronounced cancer-free.
I jokingly brought up Ivermectin with my oncologist, and he got deadly serious and told me that he's had 6 patients who decided to go with Ivermectin. All 6 were dead within a year.

We have raised more hell about two people on floating debris than all the hell we raised about the Israeli military’s conduct in Gaza using weapons given to them by the U.S. Seems once is much worse than the other.

A new CNN report uncovers that the IDF knowingly:
•Shot starving Palestinians trying to collect flour
•Bulldozed their bodies into shallow, unmarked graves
•Left them to decompose, scavenged by dogs
•Never documented these murders & tried to hide them
This is what genocide looks like. Horrific.

"The only certainty in U.S. foreign policy from the last helicopter out of Saigon in 1975 to the Kurds after the Gulf War in 1991 to the 2020 Doha Accords and the Afghan evacuation in 2021, is that American loyalty comes with an expiration date."

this was bad before, but these are the most troubling and serious allegations you can make about a journalist. if they’re true, i genuinely can’t think of a worse scandal in the history of political journalism. devastating to our industry, to public trust as a whole, and to everyone in its orbit

Back in August, I pointed out that our big voucher program is overfunded by about $137m. That was based on Fiscal Research's estimate that demand would increase 40% from the prior year.
Actual numbers show demand is up 28%, implying that the state's voucher program is overfunded by $188m.
