No, but he went with a thousand other shipping company CEOs and only him and the UPS guy came out with money.

And thousands of those are unique visitors!

Zoning to prohibit people from living on 99% of the land so that the population is dense enough to fully benefit from public transit? Lots of states don't even have a true city at all. Should those be zoned as national parks?

Edit: I think I missed the point. You're talking about just city zoning. Still, not a magical fix and would likely require moving lots of people and demolishing/building buildings and infrastructure. However, it's more realistic than zoming everyone out of the midwest.

But... it's cybersecurity. What is a "brief visual and non-intrusive room inspection" even looking for? Anonymous masks? Green terminals with scrolling text? People shouting "enhance" and/or "I'm in"?

Thing is, it already was ubiquitous before the AI "boom". That's why everything got an AI label added so quickly, because everything was already using machine learning! LLMs are new, but they're just one form of AI and tbh they don't do 90% of the stuff they're marketed as and most things would be better off without them.

I'll stop speeding when the mfs around here stop building 6 lane roads with a 30mph speed limit.

Dems controlled the Senate with the slimmest majority possible. One fucker that owns a coal company was able to tank all meaningful climate bills and there was nothing Biden or anyone else could do about it. You can forget about any progressive policies in that environment, lol. Biden did well with the tools he was given.

TLDR: Mostly extortion via "protection" fees for various businesses. Also, illegal taps into fuel pipelines and then selling the fuel on the black market.

So they're adopting a similar structure to OpenAI, a for-profit company majority controlled by a non-profit organization.

Outrage, yes, but what about decreased usage? What's the effect on revenue and stock price? C-suite pay?

The interesting question is what happens if Valve is still around after all of us are long gone and there are millions of 150+ year old accounts, many under active use?
