I'm amazed at her bravery. I couldn't detect any fear in her voice during the encounter, although of course she was terrified. No Dem9cratic candidate for President in '28 has a chance if they don't promise comprehensive justice for this violence.

Why indeed. Your idea that managers want to believe in AI so they can avoid interacting with human employees and their attendant superior knowledge is .... chef's kiss.
It reminds me of research into "return to office" policies. The empirical data showed that our bosses claims about productivity as a justification for disallowing work from home is horseshit. Turns out it's narcissism. The bosses want to see you genuflecting in person.
Late stage capitalism, baby.

Americans turning away from social media. All media, actually. We may be learning this now but you know who's known this for a while? Zuck, Musk, and the other tech wanna-be-overlords. They've killed the goose that was laying the golden eggs.That's why they're scrambling. Metaverse, AI. Mergers. Their nexus of political control is going with it. Which is bad timing for them because they committed a lot of crimes with Trump. #SocialMedia

The US team would still have lost, but could have shown ethical leadership by sitting Balogun out. They'd have been held in high regard by global football. Instead they've lost as tainted participants in a cheating scandal that they will never escape. It'll haunt all of them for the rest of their lives.

Great analogy Mr. Doctorow! Zuckerberg acting like the tin pot dictator of Belarus.
When the American people get their government back we're going to have to look at this asymmetric billionaire lawfare problem. I, myself, have been personally threatened with a lawsuit by a bullying billionaire. It's scary. Luckily for me he didn't go through with it but it's a problem when our 1st Amendment rights are taken away by the rich and powerful.

I was on my regular zoom cocktails with some Canadian friends and one said another American friend of hers had used the word "demonstration" when referring to an Indivisible event and I thought I liked that descriptor a lot so that's what I'm saying now. "I'm going to the demonstration." Right out of one if my favorite Rolling Stones songs.

Sort of weird isn't it? That fool Trump is working for Putin on Ukraine while at the same time starting shit with Russian allies? Venezuela, Cuba and now Iran? It seems like different factions gain control of Trump's addled mind on different days and net net, American taxpayers and our allies and American troops are sitting watching a catastrophic disaster unfold, seemingly helpless to stop it.

From my perch here in the US, temporarily held captive by a fascist regime funded by American tech and corporate giants, let me give a hardy salute to our European friends who are - by necessity - breaking away from these companies. They've brought all this on themselves. Google and their ilk deserve every bit of the financial harm coming to them.

Brave Minnesotan observers. Evil Trump brownshirts. It's getting worse. They've decided to pivot from killing peaceful citizen observers to snatching and imprisoning them. Presumably to end the horrendous publicity. Make noise, everybody.

I had an epiphany about this fincialization during the 2008/9 meltdown. The economy was contracting so gas prices should have been falling. Real-world economic stabilization - leaving more money in consumers pockets. But prices were rising, as a result of financial bets. I thought at the time that a way to stop it would be to write a law that says you can only hedge risks you are actually exposed to. So the first mango hedge would be legal, the rest wouldn't be.

My town had a huge turnout compared to our regular bi-weekly protest, which is organized by an Indivisible volunteer. Not ony did 10X the people show up, but the street we were on was a procession of honking cars, some with signs and flags. More than a few blasting a great rap song "FDT". An inflatable costume conga line. The people are ready. They just need leadership. I think Indivisible has a plan. Let's keep going.

I was once contacted by a recruiter, and being finally fed up with my employer at the time, I agreed to a meeting. My future boss's boss asked me right off the bat why I wanted to join their company. I looked him dead in the eye and said, "You called me."

I am loving the way this strategy of making the protests old and white has evolved- it's quite organic but for the reasons you've articulated, it's going to be very effective. When I say organic, there is a hive mind now with social media that has largely up until now been driving right-wing nuttiness. It now seems to be moving the Trump opposition. But unlike the right wingers and their attraction to resentment and violence, this movement centers on our country and our rights.

That lower interest rate "plan" is not as innocent as it seems. With the loss of workers from his vicious deportation plan plus his stupiid tariffs, the only way Trump gets lower rates is by strong arming the Federal Reserve, which would normally raise rates to crush the ensuing inflation. And so taken altogether what NYT glibly posits here is raging inflation and complete economic disaster. Versus Harris building houses and helping people buy homes. Not apples and oranges is it?
