There's actually several scenarios where you can yell fire in a crowded theater

Regardless, they are 2 completely separate situations. Until leadership gets serious about white collar crime, we're stuck with what we have

Just to add to this, a low volume drug that is not taken regularly doesn't fit in well with a company that specializes in selling products in bulk

I'm sure the legislative branch controlled by Republicans will get right on that

I haven't looked into this, but why aren't states creating a very expensive tier for energy consumption?

And if the problem is that it would impact other businesses, why not narrowly tailor such a tier that AI companies would be the ones impacted?

If it's going to take infrastructure to support AI, then the AI companies should fund it via taxes.

Oh, right, that's socialism according to the GOP

It's one thing to say "I'm really attracted to her, but I'm too much of an introvert to initiate a conversation"

But this is sounding like stalker-type fixation level shit

That's as kind as I can put it

Beside the point. You want tariffs? Follow the law, it's that simple

To govern within the boundaries of the law, one often needs to build coalitions. Those are guardrails established by democracy

And tariffs are perfectly legal when they go through the proper channels. So, the administration just needs to go through the proper channels and work with the legislative branch to pass such tariffs. And they shouldn't be predicated on a bullshit national emergency

US law mandates retirement at 56 for Air Traffic Controllers due to the high stress and fast-paced multi-tasking nature of the job

It's considered one of the most mentally challenging jobs there are.

Bytedance/TT put out a statement that this is BS

[–] JBar2@lemmy.world 21 points 8 months ago (2 children)

Huh? It's a survey

Sure, they could be lying, but why would they?

And your employee anecdotal stories mean zilch

Yep

Just say "I haven't made my whole shopping list yet, so I'll just go later when I'm prepared"
