Twelve paragraphs in, and you still haven’t made your argument?

Are the AI companies at odds with copyright laws when they train new models? I think, yes.

Ah, because it’s a bullshit opinion piece being presented as fact, that makes sense.

It’s not like the malicious actors have stopped looking… If they are finding fewer vulnerabilities, it sounds to me they should be paying more.

That’s a penis dot gif

I’ll believe it when I see a shift in manufacturing.

$20 an hour is a decent starting salary for no prior experience or education, but as you’ve said, it’s not a lot. You will need to make concessions somewhere, such as roommates, food, subscriptions, or entertainment.

The first step is to be honest with your expenses, going through your past few months of credit card and bank statements, and put everything into a spreadsheet or app.

Use YNAB or a similar app and catalogue each of your recurring and non-recurring expenses. You say they’re not “that” much, but they do add up. You may be surprised with what you find, but mostly, it will help you think through your priorities, what is essential, and what is a recurring expense. In the end, you will know what your “baseline” spending is relative to your current salary, and how much you have free each month to spend on going out or hobbies.

After you’ve been tracking your current state of expenses for a while, thinking about your immediate future and changes you can make, make a 3 to 5 year career plan. Assess if you need a different/second job, or assuming a 2% increase each year, if you are on a career track that will drastically increase your quality of life (How much do I need to NOT have roommates? Drive a NEW car? Save for retirement? Increase entertainment expenses by $200/mo?).

What do you need to do to get that promotion or next job? When you are applying for that job in a few years, what salary number do you need to ask for? You should eventually have the answers to those questions, but not until you’ve got a real budget.

Some basic questions:

What, specifically, is your job? Just because you have a full time job doesn’t mean it is a sustainable career path or even a livable wage.

Do you have a budget? Have you cataloged your expenses?

How much debt do you have?

That isn’t how defense treaties work.

I thought Taiwan was China? Hard to invade yourself, eh, Xi?

Spoiler: It is

This is nothing new, other than that Chase has brought this capability in-house. Credit card companies have shared purchase information with second parties forever.

Chase Media Solutions follows from the integration of card-linked marketing platform Figg, which JPMorgan Chase & Co. acquired in 2022

Trade deficit has been known to economists as a farce for decades, so no, they are not the only source of growth.

Most GDP of first world countries comes from services, not goods, which are not accounted for in “exports”.

Once again, if a clickbait title asks a question, the answer is “No”. Otherwise, the title would be the much stronger affirmative statement, e.g., “Exports are the only source of growth for countries”.

Toss up whether to watch Fate: Zero or Thousand Blade Works, but definitely watch it. It might still emotionally break you a bit, though.

If they are also sending a validation email, it would fail, so no issue.

DLC itself almost never goes on sale; you’ll be waiting for an eventual game of the year edition like 3-5 years out. CyberPunk 2.0 has all the base game improvements of Phantom Liberty, and easily 100 hours of content without the DLC.

Interesting, but this article was published 3 years ago.

Two countries that can’t use SWIFT establish a transaction system no one else uses, that isn’t SWIFT. Got it.

Curious to see whether they are able to produce engines in sufficiently large volumes, and, which engines these exports will receive.

Allegedly, the WS-19 entered production earlier this year, but presumably, those are all destined for domestic J-31/35 production, and exports will continue to use the WS-13E.
