If you were a despotic president, what movie would you force Hollywood to make? I want to see Quentin's Star Trek movie or maybe Kill Bill Vol 3.

it just seems plainly clear to me that if you serve the country in any capacity, civil or military, and you are not a conservative white man, the Trump administration wants to make the workplace as hostile an environment as possible so you remove yourself

I will miss the midmorning gym time when the shutdown officially ends and wish the best of luck to all the retirees that get to continue that sweet life.

I have no idea how you aren't a pile of sweat in that long sleeve velour track suit, ma'am but you're out there killing it.

So it turns out... the US air travel system was incredibly, deeply dependent on federal funding to just run day-to-day all this time, to the benefit of private airline shareholders, when everyone thinks that state-run trains are leeching off the government. Weird!

Rejecting the premise here. "AI" is not coming for your job. Companies are dumping people because they are putting more money into AI investment, not because there is labor replacement via productivity.

Even in the Amazon announcement, Jassy backed away from the framing that AI took those 14k jobs.
