A week later, Danielle Smith, premier of the province of Alberta, was in Mexico City to meet “key partners in energy, financial services and manufacturing.”
I don’t know that I’d lump that in with Canadian strategy, since Smith seems to be in lock-step with Trump….
How does this align with Hungary’s stance?
If the far right can stand up an independent production company and make a go at it, why can’t everyone else do the same thing?
In the Internet age, it doesn’t really matter if you can’t get broadcast rights on cable or OTA… just stand up a streaming service, get contracts with Akamai and CloudFlare, lease studios in a few major cities (or even work out of garages and have remote audiences, mixed with live shows at random venues… works for youtube influencers), and operate off of a mix of subscriptions, ad placements, and traditional ads from companies who are fed up with what the US government is doing.
All these employees know how to do this stuff; it’s their jobs. Why not work for an employee held company instead and ditch the fear of reprisal/job loss?
And how did it differ from refusing to decorate a cake for a same sex wedding?
But… Kimmel didn’t make any Kirk comments, did he? I thought he only talked about the federal government’s reaction?
Gross Domestic Product is a statistic based on measured numbers.
Not a scam.
However, that information can definitely be used to mislead and scam people, just like any other statistics.
I wonder what effect all this is having on the timeshare industry….
Er, you can choose to use GPT online, or limit it to local models. And they’re currently testing alternative models from other vendors.
What OpenAI allowed was for Apple to run their own instance of GPT that doesn’t call home to OpenAI.
That said, for chatbots I still only use them in a browser; any “AI” integrated on my devices has to be local-only, with me having control over the selected model.
I believe the encryption restrictions were relaxed in 1998.
However, certification for import/export of nuclear weapons and other dangerous goods was still needed for strong encryption (such as phone SIM cards) as recently as 2006. To get on that list of people who could legally transport SIM cards not for personal use over the US border, you needed the same background check and government clearance as someone transporting enriched uranium.
This is why I no longer go out in public.
To play devil’s advocate, strategic bragging can get you noticed by influential people who can change the trajectory of your life.
Sure, it won’t make you happy, but just look at how rich and powerful politicians leverage bragging to get their way and influence their followers.
Strong man diplomacy, while deeply flawed in the long run, can still be very effective over a single lifetime.
If you never brag at all, you’ll likely see a bunch of possibilities go to others that do, even if the brag is hollow.
Yes, but I’m not in that industry or country. However, execs and top management types could pull it off, and the employment risk would be no greater than it already is.
