They need the talking heads on Fox News to tell them how to answer that question first.

Sigh…

Because the stock market isn’t a measure of how well a country is operating. On the contrary, deregulation allows companies to boost profit via harmful means. Rich people got it good under Trump/Republicans and therefore the stock market thrives until disaster strikes and it all comes crashing down.

I’m a senior software dev that uses AI to help me with my job daily. There are endless tools in the software world all with their own instructions on how to use them. Often they have issues and the solutions aren’t included in those instructions. It used to be that I had to go hunt down any references to the problem I was having though online forums in the hopes that somebody else figured out how to solve the issue but now I can ask AI and it generally gives me the answer I’m looking for.

If I had AI when I was still learning core engineering concepts I think shortcutting the learning process could be detrimental but now I just need to know how to get X done specifically with Y this one time and probably never again.

Objects like an unbreakable stick are still composed of atoms suspended in space and held together by the fundamental forces of nature. When you push on one end, the other end doesn’t immediately move with it but rather the object experiences a wave of compression traveling through it. This wave of compression travels faster than we can perceive but still cannot travel faster than light.

Look up why arrows bend after they’ve been released by a bow, it’s essentially the same mechanic.

I can’t pick a favorite. Every day I’ve got a different song stuck in my head so whatever that is I suppose. I’ll say, Andrew Bird whistles a lot in his music and whenever he’s on I’ll whistle along with him.

I can whistle really well

All essentials are going up but at least some useless luxury items are coming down.

^ Classic white person giving lectures about racism and how they’re actually the victim of it.

Excuse me, sir! Your privilege is showing.

Stop being dramatic. You took a statement about white people being accustomed to cooperating with the police and turned it into “people hate me because I’m white”.

My impression is that Lemmy and the fediverse are a manifestation of the dissatisfaction with the current “normal” and “mainstream” social media platforms which are in decline due to hyper-capitalism. Is it no wonder the majority of its users’ ideology doesn’t align with what is “normal” and “mainstream”?

That being said, this system is designed so that communities can exist independently from one-another. You’re always welcome to create your own. Otherwise, lemmy.world is just about as “normal” as you’re going to get out of Lemmy.

For at least the time being, we have the right to remain silent through the 5th amendment. Providing false information can incriminate you. Providing no information at all cannot (exceptions may be providing personal identification, licenses and registrations, look up your local laws). Know your rights and exercise them.

Were you ever really an ally though? Seems like you’re looking for an excuse not to be.

Is this the fediverse’s answer to Instagram?

Our government leans heavily on decorum and good faith. Trump’s success has been due to his refusal to adhere to decorum and good faith. Our system doesn’t know how to handle that other than shaming and shaking fists so Trump gets free reign to do whatever he wants.

While the whole situation is shitty, I find it hard to believe a massive company would shut down services for 12 hours, losing millions in revenue and likely millions of users, all as a PR stunt for a foreign leader.

Fold it tip-to-crust with the sauce side facing out and then eat it from the middle-out.

Finally free from the Golden Handcuffs, I’d use my extra time to do something I’ve always wanted, like music production, which would also inevitably be taken over by AI.

Nope. Move to a real blue state if you wanna come. MI has betrayed us too many times. We don’t need that in New Canada.
