I received the newsletter. I don't remember for sure, but I probably did opt in.
Take another look. I saw this text at the bottom of mine:

I am in exactly the same spot you're in. I have two phone numbers available to me and neither is accepted. However, I have a different take on it: Hanlon's Razor says "Never attribute to malice that which is adequately explained by stupidity." This being the federal government in 2026, I think it's more likely that bureaucratic incompetence at play.
I've been thinking about how ISO-9000 will be reconciled with LLMs? Will businesses abandon their ISO-9000 certifications in favor of "We use AI" or will ISO-9000 adapt in some way to the "need" for LLMs?
While I'm slaloming between and around potholes and recessed man hole covers, my Accord keeps popping up a "Lane Departure" warning. After a couple hours of this, it will pop up a picture of a coffee cup, hinting that I need break and dose of caffeine. When this happens, I kind of wish the program knew I was avoiding hazards, not driving impaired. I hope this is part of Honda's pothole software.
I'm giddy. The megachurch grifters are going to lose their minds. The money people are spending these godless AI companies is rightfully theirs. How are they going to pay for their private jets now?

Perhaps pulling the teeth with fillings before cremation would be just as environmentally friendly and less likely to bankrupt anyone.
