Check out this 1923 transit plan commissioned by the Chicago City Council. We use to be insanely ambitious. A network like this would've supported Paris-level population densities.
It's never too late!

We now have people using LLMs to gussy up their resumes. And then employers using LLMs to strip mine resumes for the interesting parts.
I’m sure this is one of many examples that follow this pattern.
Is there another tech with this pattern of “doing the same thing but less efficiently?”

If this is war, then isn’t this chemical weapon a war crime per the Geneva convention?
Locals, CPD, press, a few protestors and legal observers remain on scene but the feds are gone. Air is still foul from all the chemicals. One protestor found one of the gas cannisters feds were deploying into the crowd

You know that thing where when you have a thing or have a relationship with someone and there are good qualities and bad qualities but you get stuck focusing on the bad and don’t appreciate the good until you don’t have it anymore and it’s too late.
That’s the feeling. But it’s about a country.

NEWS: Trump seems to be implying he is going to sue ABC for bringing back Jimmy Kimmel. This is why you never bend the knee to a bully.

I’d stop watching ABC, except that shit hasn’t been relevant to me for a decade. Time to pull the Hulu/disney+ sub, though?

There’s renewable energy ads and there’s mother**cking wind farm ads. This, blissfully, is the latter.

Not gonna lie, this one had me in the first half.
But if you're hot I think ditching the sweatshirt will help more than the glasses. I don't understand how the glasses help with the temperature at all.

It’s been surprising to me how far Colbert has been allowed to go in his monologues up to this point. So now not at all surprising to see CBS torch Late Night.
It’s weird, but this feels massive. If the comedians start to fall, then the serious critics have no chance.

Colbert will be all right, maybe even better off. The world's his oyster and I'm sure MSNBC and Netflix will come calling. He could stand up the biggest late night YouTube channel in days. But they are just torching the Late Show, an institution, solely to appease a dictator. And that fucking sucks.
