My favorite version is the scene from L.A. Story, where bog-standard 2020s coffee orders are an absurdist joke. www.youtube.com/watch?v=z-Cr...

From the @nytimes.com this morning. Is there a word missing? Some weird meaning of "low-cost" that could put just 1% could below the median?

I think this year we will see moltbots or other AI agents:
- break out of centralized containment and coordinate outside of preset channels
- start inflicting serious real world damage, starting with meme coins
- be (partially) shut down by a coordinated and creative human effort.
Training an AI to act like the good Terminator from T2 and having it identify with the bot from T1 would be a funny way for this all to end...

Like...you created a budget that requires these rates. If you don't think they're good for the city's economic prospects, adjust the budget!
Is there a "Bob Ross stole his shtick from Bill Alexander" truther group I can join?

AI is the most important new issue on the agenda and it’s not great that the leading approaches are:
1. Do whatever big tech wants
2. Make stuff up about water use
I think we can do better!
Um...didn't it also make possible all the anti-construction stuff they've done since 1940?

I ask again...what is the point of having a rainy day fund if you can't use it during a rainstorm?
oh mighty ratings agencies, am I allowed to help poor people?

This is what a federal judge just said to the Trump administration.
Seems to apply pretty well to #mapoli too, though. We have money in reserve. A (maybe *the*) core safety net program is at risk. Use the money!
Someday I will understand what the #mapoli rainy day fund is for.

Do I need to add that the numbers aren't even right? Property taxes in Austin aren't $46 per $1000. They're less then half that level.
