But if they didn’t get free resources, they wouldn’t be profitable!
Sadly that is the excuse many AI companies use.

Inflation is the overall increase in prices. If I inflate a tire at 10 PSI/sec and then I slow the inflation to 5 PSI/sec, the tire is still inflating. Saying prices have not fallen is a given since that has not really happened since the Great Depression. If the Fed kept interest rates high despite lowering inflation we eventually would have gotten deflation which is something we absolutely, positively do not want. Wage increases have outpaced price inflation since early 2023. Inflation was greater than wage growth in 2021 and 2022 so your experience sucks but it doesn’t seem to be the norm.
Card and Kreuger found this out when they did a large study back in the 90s when each state could finally set its own minimum wage.
Yeah. I live in Seattle and had to travel a lot for work. Going out to eat was about the same price everywhere. The only thing that was really cheaper I could see was gas.
Do you mean 25 years ago? Twenty years the rate was around 1%. Back in July of 2000 it went up to about 6.5%. But inflation was on the rise at that point. It has sharply declined now.
What the hell are you talking about? The Inflation Reduction Act has tons of spending that goes to union labor. Biden’s tariffs also protect industries that have tons of union labor. What the fuck has Trump ever done to help unions?
He has not been president for quite a while. The current DOJ has certainly had time to look into this.
Would you prefer they keep rates high? Inflation has dropping pretty consistently for months and was 2.5% y/y last month. Food price inflation was even lower y/y. What action would you prefer the Fed take?
Just Israel committing terrorism.
But I was told by Republicans that Putin endorsed Harris! /s
State sponsored terrorism.
Oh thank god. I recall constantly being downvoted on reddit for pointing that out.
I feel like you missed the point of that opinion. A shoestring by itself is not a machine gun. Wearing a shoestring while shooting a semi automatic rifle is not a machine gun.
The guy voted for Trump in 2016…
Not sure integrity has ever been a thing for Musk. Really any of them but definitely not Musk.
It is the logical choice.
I see a good amount of paved playgrounds, even at new schools, which always seems bonkers to me. Kids are rambunctious and get into lots of scrapes. Why would you want to put in ground that is more expensive and makes that worse?
Mine in the 90s was a mix of open field and gravel. Although the school it replaced because a semi ran into it had a paved playground.
NPR reports that he did not want to see a camshaft in office that was anti immigration which I’m sure Republicans will pounce on. He voted for Trump in 2016…
Edit: camshaft should be candidate.
The guy seems to be a whacko. He was arrested for illegally having a machine gun 20 years ago. He has donated to both political parties. He also donated to Tulsi Gabbard.

He has publicly denied the Holocaust and has made many antisemitic remarks. Is anyone surprised that he considers himself a black Nazi?
