Venezuela's largest imports are in the food sector, for items that can be grown in the country. One example is soy. We produce only 10% of what we need, but there is no geographical constraint to fulfill the rest. Another example is corn. bitacoraeconomica.com/venezuela-pr...

"Add it all up, and time is not on the data center's side. The finance guru estimates that the 'AI datacenters to be built in 2025 will suffer $40 billion of annual depreciation, while generating somewhere between $15 and $20 billion of revenue.'" #econsky futurism.com/data-centers...
There's a Stunning Financial Problem With AI Data Centers
Given the rate at which tech companies are spending on data centers, current revenues would have to increase ten-fold just to break even.

If the share of gay people is more or less constant around the World, then China should have the largest LGBT population on the planet along with India. Besides the useless homophobia, it's a bad business decision to ban dating apps as tax revenue is lost.
SCOOP: China's top 2 gay dating apps, Blued and Finka, became unavailable on app stores over the weekend. Apple confirmed to WIRED that it removed the two apps following "an order from the Cyberspace Administration of China."

In construction, a prompt engineer is called a customer. Customers pretty much know how their house or building should look like or the purpose it will serve, but have no idea how to design nor build it. That's why they talk to teams of architects and engineers.

At least in my case, if I want to burn as many calories during active exercise as I do the rest of the day, I have to run at least 21.1 km (a half marathon). In other words, eating well and enough sleep is just as important.

The constant decline in Financial jobs in NYC perhaps has to do with the fact that many jobs are done more efficiently by computers. I live in "backwards" Venezuela and have no need to visit a bank or interact with a human for money stuff. It's all web or app-based. Stock markets are electronic.

By the time Tesla decided to build electric cars, internal-combustion engines had been powering cars for over a century. Building a feasible electric car at scale was not an easy task, and Elon Musk was rewarded accordingly. Besides Roomba vacuum cleaners, there are no robots working in homes today.

pre-writing a devastating obituary for your enemy is god-tier hating of a kind you don’t often see anymore. renaissance haterism. beautiful stuff.
A Sharon Begley byline, almost 5 years after her death.
Upon hearing the news James Watson had died, a STAT reporter said in our Slack, "I wish I could read what Sharon would have written."
Incredible news: Sharon in fact did pre-write a Watson obit. And it is masterful and excoriating.
