Half of the world’s population owns just 2% of global wealth, UN report finds : Peoples Dispatch
Rising inequality is reinforced by the global financial system, which privileges the wealthier countries and compels the poorer nations to transfer a substantial part of their national income to them.

i think what gets overlooked is that part of the humor and charm of edits like these is that you're perfectly aware that someone sat down and spent their own time making it. they chose to do something cool or silly or stupid or genius, regardless of the results

LLMs hallucinating nonexistent software packages with plausible names leads to a new malware vulnerability: "slopsquatting."
