I'll wager you're neither a bigot nor an idiot. It's called the autism spectrum.

We're not there yet, but being told to go into a trade may become the new "learn to code". In the meantime, private equity is buying up local companies that deal in skilled trades (plumbing, HVAC, electrical), consolidating them under one roof, which will result in limited competition and drive down wages.

Curious how this will affect OHLC data. Will reporting shift from market close to midnight?

Never seen it myself, but I have many interests and have been following the same 100 channels for years. But, I can see this becoming a problem. LLMs are very attractive for no-talent hacks who only care about making a buck.

The U.S. protected top national security secrets a bit differently back in the day. I suspect they initially fooled Mr. Lazar, but he wised-up somewhere along the way and has been milking this thing for all its worth.

That's desperate, corporate BS speak. So sad. What happened to you, Intel?

Should the ultra wealthy become concerned about their security teams, the rest of us will have had bigger problems long before that. The case for building bunkers is the same as during the Cold War-- to buy time and hope for the best. It's the worst-case scenario for them and everyone else.

Our species has buggy features; we tend to promote and be led by those who score high in opportunistic sociopathic traits.

I dunno. You might be able to eat some of them, but not the ones you really want. Today's ultra wealthy have security/intel teams comprised of former SEALs, Delta operators, Secret Service, etc, and can move anywhere/anytime in the world they want (along with their wealth). They have eyes/ears everywhere and are pretty much untouchable.

I think they should've worded it as "LMR can deliver ~30% more range and at lower cost." Which is great and all, but I was kinda hoping for more of a breakthrough by then.

Don't hold your breath. They mutate and evolve; their gullibility and hate will outlive all of us. Trump's first term was thought to be aberration in American politics, following by Biden being a revert to mean. But here we are. I think we're in a new era of malignant stupidity.

If anything, WFH drives my competitive spirit. I make it my mission to be more productive than anyone whose time management involves sitting in traffic.

And one of the threats of AI is human enfeeblement. Pretty sure that's where this is headed.

In my neck of the woods, white-collar Trump voters are pissed about their 401Ks while the under-educated blue-collar crowd and retirees are doubling-down because he's pissing everyone else off, so he must be doing something right.

I would not be surprised if Trump reaches out to Russia for these materials in exchange for lowering sanctions.

You should be scared. When the alt-right succeeds here in the U.S., "Brexit" is coming for your union next. Then we all get to relive the early 20th century.
