Do companies have "contracts" for ads on the internet these days? I thought most ads on social media, Twitter included, were self service with an automated bidding system that allowed each advertiser to tweak how much they're

I'm imagining it learning to use the chat to tilt other players. Like it just ends up typing "ez" in chat after every kill or something.

Assuming the same financing as prior to trying to cancel, it will be $13B from banks loaned to Twitter the company. ~$7B from friends of Elon. Then I think something like half of the remaining was supposed to be margin loans against TSLA st

Very much disagree. Lazy genius is useless. Hard working, low IQ gets stuff done. Obviously hard working genius is ideal. But without the ability to focus on longer term goals, which grades is an indicator of more so than test scores, your

Is it also illegal if giphy goes back to being an independent private company, but then Meta leases their IP for like 9999 years or something? Or are there similar (the same?) laws that prevent an arrangement like that?

Devil's advocate here (I won't comment on if I agree with the argument or not), but this article seems to miss the point of the section 230 debate. All of the stuff here is about what the law is now. The objection most people have

I wonder how many people ignored the email claiming they were being given $10k. There is nearly a nearly 100% chance I'd mark the email as spam, wonder how it got past gmail spam filters, and never think about it again.
