You’re just describing a task scheduler.

Are you kidding? There’s nothing I love more than hand typing a 400 character file path.

People will believe anything if the icon on the tweet looks authoritative and the grammar is sound.

human is dumb for specifically choosing to be a piece of shit for NOT closing the car door.

Depending on what I’m doing, I periodically have to double back and re-close a door if I didn’t close it hard enough. Modern cars have built in alarms specifically to alert drivers when a door latch isn’t secured. You don’t have to be a piece of shit to fail to notice that a door is ajar.

Need a car to get to the airport, because my city doesn’t have mass transit.

If the only cars in my area are Waymos, do I just skip my flight?

Humans know how to close a car door.

The future is clocking in for another 12 hour shift at the “making minor adjustments to the super intelligent AI dick sucking factory” so you can afford to eat the bugs and live in the pod

Subscriptions? You idiots are paying for this shit?

Wiggling another jenga block out of the tower.

If only there was some way to watch classic movies without using a corporate streaming service.

As opposed to a private for-profit company run by friends of the people in government?

Musk was upset that his control over the company would be ceded to a broader pool of public investors. He’s got no problem with privatization and securitization when it fattens his wallet.

He’s appointing the next Fed chair as we speak. We’re a bit past feeling squeamish about what Trump controls.

The longest portion of the offering, a 40-year bond, is expected to yield 0.95 percentage points over US Treasuries, down from 1.2 percentage points during initial talks, the people said.

Gotta be really bearish on treasuries to consider this a good idea.

Traditionally, you need to find someone to loan you money with the bond as collateral. Then you promise that person the bond as repayment of the debt + interest, with the expectation that you can re-buy the bond at a future date for much less than you could today.

Interac is non-profit.

OpenAI started out as non-profit. Quite a few health insurance companies (Blue Cross Blue Shield, for instance) are organized as non-profits.

Still, talking to vendors, it sounds like the fees are quite low, and I try to pay debit when it’s a small business.

Sure. All good when it works for you. But this isn’t some kind of wholesale replacement for Visa that doesn’t run the obvious risk of becoming Visa 2.0 (or whatever X.0 iteration of credit card companies we’re currently on).

It’s transactions at the scale of a continent rather than a household or a business. Hardly unfathomable. Just bigger.

Great if you don’t mind a wallet overflowing with loose change.

Crazy that we don’t have a public sector payment processor, though. You’d think we could have a Generic Card tied to a public bank that handles electronic payments efficiently. But it’s been over 40 years since we began consumer grade electronic transactions and its still entirely within the scope of the private sector.

Heterosexuality.

Not even once.
