Hah. Trump is the most corrupt president in US history. Honestly, who didn't think he would corrupt Bitcoin while he was at it?

Yeah, it's "the libs" and not a fundamental study of keeping AI aligned with the bounds set by the user or developer. You know, what every single AI developer tries to do regardless of whether they lean left or right.

I see a slight decline of around 15% after the initial surge followed by relatively stable activity. It must be easy to manipulate someone who sees stats through such warped glasses. They are playing you like a fiddle. Or maybe you're

You are misinterpreting the statistics. Having more people talk than follow is good thing and probably consistent across social media. That's just saying the average person posts for 2 days and follows for 1. Which seems very typical i

I used Linux as a daily driver in the late 1990s and early 2000s. Then switched back to Windows for work convenience. For the first time in about 20 years I have switched back to Linux as the daily driver. I have a windows 11 VM, in case I

Don't forget about the entirety of regular social media -- Facebook, TikTok, Twitter, Instagram, etc, etc, etc. Planting follow bait and switching to propaganda memes is a pervasive tactic. At this point propaganda mongers only need pr

Not sure if you don't know the difference between say and said or that inflation is measured as a yearly rate and not aggregate. Maybe a language barrier issue. 2019 and 2020 inflation was under 2% (target) each year. I agree with Eliz

They very specifically say inflation is not "under control" which is why they have not lowered interest rates recently. It was almost under control until Trumpty Dumpty started his corrupt monkey wrenching with tariffs.

Yes, most abstractions are not as clean as leak free functional abstractions. Most abstractions in the world are leaky and lossy. Abstraction was around long before computers were invented.
