The Republican media-political machine is by far the most competitive, and they have been punishing bipartisan behavior since the 60s. Such actions are imitation, and therefore the best flattery. The Repub model is being replicated globally

The fact that tariffs exist, is sufficient marker of insanity in this day and age. Why carve out a validation relating to the degree of transformation of raw material.

This has worked REALLY well in countries like India. Where it resulted in the ability to be badly run, AND be excluded from market pressure. Which resulted in corruption and a drag on the economy. There are governments which can take a stak

Your submission was earnest, but it’s also impossible to answer fairly, because your framing is not neutral. Many people will argue that they do good at Meta, and that they strive to do good. Their results probably are good too - meta is va

Blanket characterization of regulation, as malicious barriers to AI adoption, creates the perfect smoke screen to deflect discussion of the actual problems we are seeing. The law you linked to prohibits firms from using AI to provide therap

Memory is a skill- its plastic, not static. You can get better at remembering things, like you can get better at dancing or doing exercise. We can also specialize our memory to be good at some things over others.
