> the next US President One nice thing about US Americans: they're always so optimistic! One day Rabinovich is browsing the local news site, as is his habit, and he clicks it away but somehow a chatbot still pops up on his screen: — Moishe, we notice that you only come to our site once a day, and not only do you not doomscroll, you don't even scroll past the fold. :-( Is there anything we could do to improve your engagement? — No, no, I only come to check the obituaries. — But the obituaries are in their own section, linked from the footer. You never even see the footer! — Believe you me, this obituary will be above the fold. > what would be the point? a Danish poem from 1940: Losing one glove is certainly painful, but nothing compared to the pain, of losing one, throwing away the other, and finding the first one again. > in the Western Hemisphere. (a) we've heard "spheres of influence" before, and seen Fall Blau happen anyway. [VIDEO] (b) Distances: 1'400 km Nuuk <-> Reykjavik* 3'300 km Nuuk <-> Washington DC Just saying, dude. * I saw a map in a major US paper last night that somehow was missing Iceland completely. Do you all even have fact checkers anymore?

NI rarely made established software better after a company acquisition. Generally, IT and Engineering agreed to deprecate their product lines off critical systems about 2 minutes after the deal went through. =3 [VIDEO]
