When I hear that russia's concession in this peace process is their promise not to attack further, while in return, Ukraine shall give up lands, ppl, alliances etc, I'd laugh at the striking naivety (?) if it wasn't so tragic.
86,7% of Ukrainians know russia will attack again after a short break.

So you have this government of fascist idiots, chosen for their loyalty to the cause, not their expertise, running the country into the ground. But the press has nothing better to do than sane-wash them "recession is good, actually".

So it turns out it’s the massively overpaid execs who could be replaced by AI… who’d have guessed
A study by Dayforce shows 87% of executives use AI for work, compared to 57% of managers and just 27% of employees.
I think this explains the massive disconnect we see in how CEOs talk about AI versus everyone else. It also raises the question of how useful it truly is for frontline work?
