I had a similar realization a few years back: you can dip your pizza crusts in soy sauce. You can just do it. Ain't no Johnny Law can keep you from it.

America, you have spoken loud and clear: You do not like AI. But what if AI is the way to restart the world’s idea machine?
We’re running out of good ideas. AI might be how we find new ones.
What if the best use of AI is restarting the world’s idea machine?

Wow. Indiana's proposed congressional map goes down in flames in the state Senate, 31-19. The state's two Democratic seats will remain.

I read a book on making money in ancient Athens recently (by Michael Leese, it's great), and the Greeks absolutely believed that the endless pursuit of wealth was a serious moral defect and personality issue no different than being a drunk or sexual deviant.
If you make a billion dollars — or $500 million or even $100 million dollars — and you keep trying to make more, then there is something seriously wrong with you. It's a mental illness akin to hoarding or drug addiction.

I've been experimenting with Apple Search ads.
When adding a keyword to target you can choose either "broad" or "exact". I assumed that was a string similarity comparison. It's not.
It's topic based, and I've been paying for totally unrelated search terms.

Stuff with the US and Venezuela is bad and likely to get worse, but this seized tanker is reportedly owned by a Russian oligarch, and was sanctioned by the US Treasury in 2022 due to suspected involvement in illegal oil smuggling with Iran. Plus breaking maritime law re: flags.
