All retailers should display this alongside taxes in the final total. Transparency to the consumer is the key to policy impact visibility.

It’s an old meme sir, but it checks out.

Just ask Betamax how technological superiority went against VHS.

Has it genuinely boosted output? It’s been a while since I used copilot, but the code always required checking. More importantly, the interactions between the code provided by the prompt and the other code it’s working with. Has that all gone now and you can just straight rely on what it spits out?

I’m genuinely curious about the fiscally conservative bit. When I hear that phrase I always assume people mean “I don’t want to pay taxes” but my immediate next question becomes how do you believe societal level infrastructure is constructed and maintained. Things like roads, police, military. I’ve never seen a society with private infrastructure for those things. An immediate second question, assuming you are OK with a small level of taxation to accommodate the costs of the three things listed above would be, what other society level services would fall into the bucket of things that should be paid from taxation vs things that should be privatised. Things like disaster recovery services, judicial services, child welfare services, national security, border protection. I’m going to also assume you object to education and healthcare being a taxation funded expense? What about currently public buildings like libraries? Parks? Town Halls?

The Buttery Males stopped caring once they won. No amount of misconduct from their side will ever be recognised.

Netflix correctly knew they were first to market with a streaming service but every production company would quickly pivot to a streaming service, leaving Netflix with no content. So they preemptively started making their own content to try to keep their market share. Sadly their production bets often didn’t pay off.

Interesting. Do you have any more info on the SourceID token and how it can compromise an account?
