I remember reading about a hotel in Japan that has been open for over a millennium, and IIRC it’s owned by the same family who has owned it for most of that time, and that’s their only business. We need more of that: steady-state businesses that operate but don’t pursue permanent growth.
Bullshit like this should be handled with large fines for the offender (Nestle) and corporal punishment for their c-suite. <neoliberal-justification>This will create jobs by creating a whole new branch of law, “moronic IP claims law.”</neoliberal-justification>
It’s not about waiting, it’s about enticing people to use Amazon fresh rather than the other grocery options they typically use.
My guess is that Amazon fresh makes its prices even more absurdly low to get more people buying.
Goddamn it, now I feel like I have to see it even if it’s not a good movie.
That’s literally how “AI agents” are being marketed. “Tell it to do a thing and it will do it for you.”
What are you checking against? Part of my job is looking for events in cities that are upcoming and may impact traffic, and ChatGPT has frequently missed events that were obviously going to have an impact.
Sadly a lot of that is probably marketing, with little to no LLM integration, but it’s basically impossible to know for sure.
Claude why did you make me an appointment with a gynecologist? I need an appointment with my neurologist, I’m a man and I have Parkinson’s.
The file name looks like a link, it’s at least a slightly different color than the other text.

I’m so glad I don’t use telegram.
Also every Hollywood agent with Jewish clients from 1900 until present day.
Austin actually has a city ordinance with more or less this exact logic. Once you’ve seen a dozen or so average women with their chests uncovered at the pool, it loses any excitement it may have initially held.
Israel is a test of the limits of oppression both technologically and legally. They are building the technology that will allow the wealthy and ruling classes to oppress the poor when things go bad, and developing the legal arguments for why that is okay.
Sounds right.
Or a coalition of media companies maintaining a legal defense fund.
My understanding is that the Israeli economy relies very heavily on US support. If Netanyahu begins to turn away from the US, he’ll have to call on European nations for support, and at least in some places those populations are more aware of and disgusted by the behavior in Gaza. If Israel can’t get other foreign investment to continue propping up their economy, all those Israeli companies that have been attractive investments for the last 4-6 decades are going to tank hard. Along with trumps idiocy, an Israeli collapse could be a complete disaster for the industrialized world.
This is a point more people need to understand. One thing I would love to see more of is journalist-owned news outlets, ideally in a co-op model (so the writers can agree to bring on, say, editors and photographers as the income warrants it). This is the only way to guard against the wealthy just buying the press and thereby dictating the narrative.
He’s more or less said that exact thing.
