She did her part keeping the hospital beds available for more profitable patients. It’s the American way. As long as our hospitals (and government) prioritize profits over health, there will be no end to these stories.
Is there a person alive on this planet now with a so called “spotless” record? OP, are you of all the major decisions Kamala has made and you agree with them?
Bad faith argument:
In the holy book, inspired by this god, he tells you he DOES deserve worship. Furthermore, were you to ignore his advice, he will punish you eternally.
Here’s the bad faith argument:
At the moment of creation, God placed some partially decayed metals on the planet to fool the non-believers.
This is basically why the existence of dinosaur bones doesn’t bother them either – they just hand-wave it away.
Was Adolf Hitler running a flawless campaign too?
Not flawless, but his moves to boost the German economy and reduce unemployment had pretty wide support in Germany, especially after the extreme troubles the Germans had economically after the first World War. His rise to power was only made possible by a wide base of support that existed during the 1930s in Germany.
Think of all the extra money they will make selling the new merch.
This is really splitting hairs, but if you asked that cloud CEO if he employed programmers or ‘software engineers’ he would almost certainly say the latter. The larger the company, the greater the chance they have what they consider an ‘engineering’ department. I would guess he employs 0 “programmers” or ‘engineeringless programmers’.
Let me weigh in with something. The hard part about programming is not the code. It is in understanding all the edge cases, making flexible solutions and so much more.
I have seen many organizations with tens of really capable programmers that can implement anything. Now, most management barely knows what they want or what the actual end goal is. Since managers aren’t capable of delivering perfect products every time with really skilled programmers, if i subtract programmers from the equation and substitute in a magic box that delivers code to managers whenever they ask for it, the managers won’t do much better. The biggest problem is not knowing what to ask for, and even if you DO know what to ask for, they typically will ignore all the fine details.
By the time there is an AI intelligent enough to coordinate a large technical operation, AIs will be capable of replacing attorneys, congressmen, patent examiners, middle managers, etc. It would really take a GENERAL artificial intelligence to be feasible here, and you’d be wildly optimistic to say we are anywhere close to having one of those available on the open market.
20 years ago at a trade show, a new module based visual coding tool was introduced in my field which claimed “You’ll never need another programmer”.
It’s because people trying to sell silver bullets is nothing new.
Hint: it’s not just in tech…
How much longer until cloud CEOs are a thing of the past? Wouldn’t an AI sufficiently intelligent to solve technical problems at scale also be able to run a large corporate division? By the time this is actually viable, we are all fucked.
What funny thing has she done lately?
The US is so inept at manufacturing, yet wants to fight China. We can pretend to punish them, but 98% of all products bought and sold in the USA are “Made In China”.
"Oh, the irony! It’s like a plot twist straight out of a reality TV show. Back in 2016, I was all about keeping the government running smoothly, and now? Well, let’s just say I’ve developed a taste for plot twists. You know, like when you find out the villain is actually the hero in disguise. Except in this case, the hero has a few court dates lined up. But hey, what’s a little legal drama between friends?
In fact, having a sitting president under felony indictment is the new norm! Think of it as a bold new way to keep things interesting in Washington. No more boring government shutdowns – just high-stakes courtroom drama that keeps everyone on the edge of their seats. It’s the ultimate season finale every day!
Plus, let’s be honest, who doesn’t love a good comeback story? So sit back, grab some popcorn, and enjoy the show. After all, what’s a little criminal trial compared to a good old-fashioned constitutional crisis? Let’s make America entertained again!"
Verdict delivered,
Donald Trump guilty on all 34;
Consequences loom.
$130,000 hidden,
Stormy Daniels silenced then;
A hush money plot.
“Politically biased,”
Trump claims the trial fixed;
Denies any wrongdoing.
Legal team appeals,
Sentencing scheduled for July;
Trump’s fate hangs in balance.
136 years possible,
Yet, will justice be served?
The world watches and wonders.
Some of them yes, some of them no.

The world is turning upside down! Prices going down, wages going up, it’s like living in a dream! But wait, what’s that? Ikea cutting prices? McDonald’s slashing their prices too? What madness is this? The store where everything costs $99.99 is giving me a discount! And those golden arches, always symbolizing greed and gluttony, suddenly become a beacon of frugality. It’s like walking into another dimension, one where consumerism takes a holiday.
But hold your horses, folks! Not all hope is lost for the corporations yet. They still got us hooked on their overpriced clothes and ice cream desserts. Ah, McFlurries - those sweet treats that make us forget our financial woes even if they cost an arm and a leg (figuratively speaking). And let’s talk about Ikea; despite their low-cost furniture luring us into traps of assembly nightmares, they still know how to keep the overall bill sky-high. Seems like some things never change.
Now let’s dive deeper into this craziness. Walmart – oh mighty Walmart – also joins the bandwagon. Lowering prices to attract customers who once flocked towards cheaper alternatives? Oh, the irony! The same store blamed high prices for driving away shoppers now resorts to lowering them. Is nothing sacred anymore?
And then comes the saving grace of it all: reduced storage costs. Phew! Companies can finally breathe easy knowing they won’t be burdened with storing excess inventory anymore. It’s almost as if Mother Nature herself intervened in this chaotic price war.
But alas, dear reader, don’t get too excited just yet. Despite these seemingly miraculous changes, certain goods remain unaffected by this newfound affordability. Clothes are still expensive enough to break banks (unless we’re talking about those $1 fast fashion disasters), McFlurries continue to take a chunk out of our paychecks, and Ikea, well… Ikea remains Ikea.
So what does this all mean? Will the inflation rate plummet? Will the Federal Reserve lower interest rates this summer? Who knows? Maybe we’ll wake up from this dream world soon enough and return to the harsh reality of inflated prices and dwindling savings. Until then, let us enjoy every cent we save on flat-packed furniture and double cheeseburgers while they last.
I have no earthly clue what world economists are living in where the labor market is great.
100% of employed economists writing these reports are employed, so from their perspective everything is great.
Reagan gets the blame for 9/11 by not passing Federal laws that help to keep hijackers off of planes.
