Documents reveal a web of financial ties between Trump officials and the industries they help regulate:
ProPublica is releasing a trove of disclosure records that detail the finances of more than 1,500 Trump appointees who declined to identify former clients.
Stop making headlines that say "Trump says...". Tell us what he is doing. Stop spreading his lies.

That number is burned into my consciousness. I inadvertently learned that you could see private conversations in public chat rooms when using Telnet instead of a browser on GeoCities. I can tell you the difference in audible dial-up handshakes between 1200, 2400, 14.4 kbps modems. I needed a edu email address to join Facebook after my university was admitted.

By building their voice assistant around generative AI, Amazon has created an Alexa that simply doesn’t work.
Easy tasks, like playing music or pulling up YouTube videos, go haywire.

The takeaway from the success of Iron Lung isn't to fund YouTubers making sci-fi movies about games.
The secret is that Markiplier is a creative person who made something that excited him.
This is also the secret sauce behind Sinners.

AI Bros Wanted Trump. Now They Learn What Happens When You Tell Him No.
