but he can take their money away

Which he doesnt have the power to do either under the impoundment control act, as thats a congressional power, not an executive power.

But he keeps (trying) to do it anyway.

Thats not really how that clause works.

The interstate commerce supremacy thing has always been interpreted to refer to either specifically interfering with interstate transactions where doing so gives one company an advantage over another. Ie "You can only buy from a local farmer now".

I cant imagine any combination of facts that would make the interstate commerce clause apply that wouldnt interfere with almost all state commercial and environmental legislation.

And anyway, Presidents cant make laws.

I suspect there's several different versions of something like this, only with interior floorplans.

I mean, sure, the real estate industry. But I like to imagine high-tech cat burglars using them to plan their heists. More likely someone will turn it in to copware to sell to SWAT teams for planning drug busts.

With one important difference, this reminds me of the 1974 Emergency Highway Energy Conservation Act, which established a national speed limit of 55 MPH. States had to either adopt a state speed limit of 55 MPH, or else lose out on funding, i.e. get punished.

Of course, that was a law enacted by Congress, not an Executive order. I guess, traditionally, they say that for first quarter millennium of America, Congress held the purse strings because some inky piece of paper said they were supposed to, as if Congress could ever handle that much responsibility! Can you imagine?! Anyway, we've decided Fuck That Tradition, let's try something new and put a thieving tool in charge of the purse.

Yeah... like dudes, go look up "Heroku 12 factor" and memorize it and live it. Its a *really useful* guide to building scalable app without having to degenerate into hellish lambda messes or whatever.

And one central key to it is;- Dont put config in the container! Inject it on deploy!

We knew this at least a decade ago, at least.

I'll be surprised if I find out EOs have any authority outside the executive branch of the federal government. Otherwise a presnit could just unilaterally ban abortion, change federal, state, and locals laws and tax rates, disband Congress...

... is that it consumes standardized, structured text, has a consistent UI, etc.

This sounds ... like not that.

Well, actually, yeah, if he's not a citizen.

Why should we continue to tolerate a criminal guest?

Can't have states getting in the way

So join ANTIFAI - anti-f*-ai.

Though it might get you labeled as a ter'ist. Especially if you don't buy the products they're pushing.

You can lead a horse to water, but you can't make them read it.

That's on the horse, of course.

There an interesting, little-known new tool called "Google" that can help you with such questions.

For Aldi, which uses Instacart, I assumed it was because there is no 'fee' for pickup, but they have to pay someone to shop for you. I consider the difference a convenience fee.

That said, by not shopping in store, I end up getting only what is on my list and end up paying FAR LESS than I would if I was wandering around.

Exactly. This press release is just a convoluted way to advertise how badass their product is.

These days, the market is more trusting of the statement that better tools and processes require fewer employees to serve the same customers if you call that AI. If you get more of your customers to succeed in using your website or app to do what they need without having a human do anything for them individually, you don't need as many employees doing it. But the market doesn't want to hear that you can cut jobs because your website doesn't suck as much any more, so you say AI and they think you've done something futuristic when you've actually done something practical, and you're vague enough about it that the SEC can't say that you claimed to be doing something you're not.
