most devastating comment I’ve ever received on a paper was “you’re not Howard Zinn” in 10th grade and I’m pretty sure even that one was better than this

87% of executives sitting at their desk writing prompts like "a picture of my wife coming back with the kids"
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?

The fact doomers have gone from "America is over" to "Dems won't hold anyone responsible when this is over" can actually be read as an optimistic signal imo.

In addition to being hopelessly outdated, Thomson and Thompson are wearing dragon rank badges — which, during the previous Qing era their costumes are from, would have signified that the wearers were members of the imperial bloodline.

I have long posited that Daniel Craig's accent in Glass Onion is better than Knives Out because in Knives Out he is trying to do a real Southern accent and is bad at it but in Glass Onion he is just talking like Foghorn Leghorn, which is something a real gay Southern weirdo would do.

I'm probably a lot nicer on here because I can block before I tear into somebody. That's not a healthy muscle to exercise more than you have to. It'll turn you into a moralist

We are monitoring the situation in St. Paul and working to understand what unfolded. We received no heads up from federal authorities on this operation.
While we are always willing to work together on public safety, that is clearly not what this chaotic situation was about.
