How is it that AI companies can be worth billions of dollars and fight over employees by offering 8 and 9 figure salaries, but say they can’t afford to pay for copyrighted content that they continue to steal? Why do we stand for this?

When you have a bunch of office friends over to your place after work, and then that blowhard from Accounting whom no one much likes but you had to invite takes over the room, and then everyone stops paying attention to you, even though you’re the one who paid for the cheese cubes and the Bud Light

Supporting federal government workers, many of whom are my former colleagues and talented and dedicated public servants, an alien concept to this Administration and its tech bros apparatchiks.

“Among Musk’s claims … was that some [U.S. AID officials] had been taking “kickbacks.” He said that “quite a few people” in the bureaucracy somehow had “managed to accrue tens of millions of dollars in net worth while they are in that position,” without explaining how he had made that assessment.
