Historic churches are burning. Houses of worship are being targeted. New Yorkers deserve answers. Where is the Mayor of New York City? What is he doing to protect these communities and stop this from happening again? The people of New York shouldn’t have to wonder which church will be next.

Why AI makes jobs instead of loses them. 1. There are more profitable ideas/projects than time, talent, and general resources there are to realize them. 2. AI lowers the talent and resources bar substantially leading to more ideas becoming reality. 3. Successful idea/project = more wealth, more work, and more jobs. The reason why so many people made the mistake of thinking it gets rid of jobs is they see a fixed pie. But in reality we are growing the pie. AI is really only bearish labor for bloated mismanaged incumbents not the entire economy.

NHTSA will “absolutely” consider ending requirements that driverless cars include steering wheels, says NHTSA head Jonathan Morrison. “If you’re developing a vehicle that is designed never to be driven by a human operator, it doesn’t make any sense to require manual controls.”

Name a scam that's been around so long that we don't even realize it's a scam anymore.

We need a bit more shame. People used to avoid certain self-interested behaviors to avoid shame, private and public. Law and customs assumed this. Now, 38% of Stanford students claim to be disabled. 40% of young women (under 35) claim mental illness, and SSI disability payments have gone up 400% in a single generation. It isn't good for anyone, least of all people who are actually disabled, when everyone looks the other way as friends and family and peers con the system with a level of shamelessness no architect of our safety net ever imagined could be possible in America. When everyone is disabled, nobody is.

“And as a symbol of our independence, we will say the month first instead of the date. March 12th instead of the 12th of March, October 3rd instead of the 3rd of October, etc.” “And July 4th instead of 4th of July, sir?” “No. That one stays.”
