If you think businesses have sunk this much money and effort into AI and didn’t do a cost-benefit analysis that stretched out decades, you are being naive or disingenuous.

Are you kidding? We literally just watched the same bubble and burst in companies that rushed to get their piece of the Metaverse and NFT cash grab. I worked at a SaaS company that decided to add AI features because it was in the news and Azure offered it as a service. There was zero financial analysis done, just like for every other feature they added

I'm sure Microsoft has a plan since they invested heavily. But even Google is playing catch-up like they did with GCP.

Interim CEO is an advisor from a private equity firm. They'll just find a more palatable way to squeeze blood from stone.

I'm honestly confused about the democratic strategy here. We need a speaker in 42 days to prevent a government shutdown. Wouldn't it have been better to wring concessions out of this dude to shut down the MAGA idiots?

Democrats had wrestled in recent days with whether to help Mr. McCarthy survive, or at least to stay out of the effort to oust him. But in a closed-door meeting on Tuesday morning, Representative Hakeem Jeffries of New York, the minority leader, instructed fellow Democrats not to do so, citing Republicans’ “unwillingness to break from MAGA extremism.” Democrats did not participate in the floor debate.

This list without details on why each addon is cursed isn't very useful.

Doesn't the fact that every Windows PC ships with Edge and yet Chrome has 70% market share on desktop make a case against the idea that "defaults are everything"?

That's pretty nuts. I bet a lot of planning went into optimizing the time spent each week to make the most progress.

While that definition sounds ideal, I think most people with side hustles are still working for someone, just with flexible hours. DoorDash, Uber, transcription, etc.

ResMed does use foam in their CPAPs for sound reduction. However, when the Philips recall happened, they released a statement saying it was not the "polyester based polyurethane foam" that Philips used. That being said, in the ResMed Airsense 10, the foam is easy to remove if you're worried.
