And a few decades ago, Carter put his family peanut farm into a blind trust to avoid the mere suspicion of a conflict of interest.

Even with Flock, police aren't solving those crimes.

I tried health-tech twice. Opted out both times as there are too many misaligned incentives and useless rent-takers supported by Congress and other entrenched players.

At this point maybe the best solution is door to door doctors using AI.

$12 in tokens and the OP wasn't even at the computer. OP was working on a personal matter, arguably way more valuable than fixing a CSS scrollbar.

The short film version of the original is great, too. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T6JFTmQCFHg

It stars Tom Noonan and Ben Bailey!

How much more software does Uber need?

Unless they are iteratively replacing expensive vendors and optimizing other headcount costs?

And gas stoves, why wind turbines are bad for golf courses, the effects of nuclear weapons on hurricanes, the favorability decline of Robert E Lee, invisibility for stealth fighters, the rapid death of the US farmer due to solar panels, and the impact of tariffs on consumer prices...

Wait, maybe not that last one.

Sub-companies are owned by companies. Don't cap liabilities to the limited assets of a sub-company that actively violates the law.

Or cap them to a reasonable standard: 100% of revenues derived from the game.

Now label AI ads and let us filter them out.

Leading up to tax day, every ad was a terrible AI slop Turbotax ad.

Same. I hope Apple continues to come down on these companies -- and their customers -- that abuse the trust that Apple has built up with iMessage.

Sorry OP. Not all products need to succeed.

I don't think that technology exists. Sorry.

Subversion pre-1.5 was a nightmare. Branch merges were by convention in commit messages. To merge 20 commits from your branch, you would do `svn merge -r 125:140 /branches/my-feature` and then note in the commit message which range you merged.

1.5 made that tracking automatic but just shoved it into a metadata field that just percolated through every directory in a project.

And if someone tried to rename a core path? In the distance, sirens.

If NYC schools can do it at scale (1,600 schools this year banned cell phones), Princeton could certainly do it.

Students either leave phones at home, or the school provides pouches/mini lockers for each student.

Read r/teachers for 20 minutes and you'll understand why some teachers in the US don't do anything.

(And then mute r/teachers because it's depressing as all hell.)

How would this impact medical professionals? Especially for outside of major metro areas?

Or accidentally trigger it because you're using a key binding you've used for 15 years that, upon hitting an unexpected consent screen, triggers the consent button.

Windows sometimes thinks I'm running 640x480 display upon wake from sleep and smashes all of my windows into the top left corner. Very helpful.
