It may sound radical, but if one guy has so much wealth and power that he can use the large newspaper he owns to publicly threaten to ruin a service we all rely on, presumably as a bargaining tactic to get lower rates, we probably need to tax that guy until he can't do that anymore.
Exclusive: Amazon has long been USPS’s top customer, providing over $6 billion in annual revenue in 2025.
But Amazon may give up its long-standing partnership with USPS to deliver packages itself, which could spell disaster for the mail agency.

I did this in both of my classes this semester. It was super successful. The students had to ask an LLM about a subject they already knew well, like their favorite musician, movie, sports team, or something else they had previously researched.

It takes 225 million years or so for the Solar System to make one orbit around the galaxy. Sharks evolved long enough ago that they’ve done it twice.

I went to a Christmas market this past weekend and I was happy to not see any obvious AI slop, one MLM and one clear drop shipper (they only had shiny hair accessories so I might even give that a pass) I got a lot of the gifts I was looking for and was able to shop local. And 2 new books for me

Watching the movie #Christine tonight and on seeing what the evil car does: chops someone's fingers off, self drives and runs people over, lights on fire, drives its owners insane... what I"m getting at is that Tesla needs to rename their company to Christine.

Today we face the prospect that Ms Smith will legislate teachers back to work 'cos it says we can't afford to settle.
Meanwhile the GoA is paying $$ (so far $237M - likely as much as $650M) to Aussie coal companies to settle claims created by the UCP's own incompetence
