If you look at everybody, it's more like 95%.

AI will not help with any of this.

Maybe it's not the panacea you think it is.

Of VC-backed products, 78% fail:

42% fail because nobody wants them.
17% because they don't really solve the problem they claim to solve.
19% because they were no different from competing products or couldn't evolve with the market.

And that's just VC-backed companies.

NBC sports reporters love to say "Hi 21 year old, you just had your lifelong dream fall apart on international television after months of us promoting you to the public as the next Olympic champion and now you're not even on the podium. Any comment?"

DHS: Our officer was ambushed and beaten with snow shovels and broom handles. This was an attempted murder of federal law enforcement.

ICE says federal agents appear to have lied about confrontation that led to shooting

Agents had initially said that two men β€” Alfredo Aljorna and Julio Sosa Celis – assaulted them with a broom and a shovel before one of them shot Sosa Celis. But that account was quickly called into question, and prosecutors now say β€œnewly discovered evidence” contradicts the officers’ story.

The default assumption should be that they’re lying

The NFL must suspend Steve Tisch immediately. It's mindblowing that we're now demanding a football league act against direct involvement with a child sex-trafficking ring, only because nothing and no one else will.

Not a single one of ID representatives can articulate how women are supposed to vote in the election.
"Read the SAVE Act to find out what documentation is accepted"
Guess what? Marriage certs are not one of the docs.

HOW AM I SUPPOSED TO VOTE?

Chinese investors may be secretly buying access to information on our cutting-edge military and intelligence capabilities.

How? By investing in SpaceX, a major U.S. military contractor.

We can't let this slide. I'm pressing Sec. Hegseth for answers.

BREAKING: The House passed the so-called SAVE America Act which threatens to upend our freedom to vote.

The bill could disenfranchise millions of eligible voters by requiring documents like passports or birth certificates to register to vote and forcing voter roll purges. The Senate must reject it.

NEGUSE: AG Bondi, that man works for you now, right? The man in that video from J6 yelling 'kill them!' at cops. His name is Jared Wise.

Not the biggest point here, but nannies (plural)?

You're going on vacation, there are two parents, their four kids, and you not only need professional childcare assistance, you need more than one?

And, um, did all of the nannies you brought to Epstein Island leave with you too?

Fine. But the next time documents need to be retrieved from Mar-a-Lago, archivists will just send in the National Archives SWAT team! They will use explosive breaching charges; because why bother with niceties like asking courts for permission or knocking on doors?
