The number of low-quality or fraudulent publications is rising to hundreds of thousands per year. It is time to reevaluate current publishing models and outline a global plan. Read the 'Reformation of science publishing: the Stockholm Declaration': royalsocietypublishing.org/doi/10.1098/... #RSOS 🧪

$2 trillion in revenue over 9 months would be the largest tax increase in history outside of WWII and would seem to present a major question.

“The taxes were illegal but it’s just too much money for the government to give back” sounds like something you would have been tarred and feathered for saying in 1773.

In the century leading up to 1975, nearly 6000 freighters went down in the Great Lakes.
The Edmund Fitzgerald was the last.
The last. In 50 years, not a single commercial freighter has been lost in the Great Lakes.
Why?
It's NOAA. Of course it's NOAA.

It is said that you must pick your battles, but often they are picked for you. You should not give in just because you did not choose the fight. No, you must respond with all your determination and ferocity, and show your enemy they picked the wrong battle, with the wrong warrior.

The people who financialized (and then destroyed) the housing market in the mid 2000s did not care about building homes. Similarly this kind of sweaty shell game makes me very suspicious of the AI sales pitch.

Exactly.
