Yes, I have seen their market cap.

Fascinating how you have the ability to apply logic to the maths in question but not to what has caused the empty coffers.

Can humanity afford to prosper if it lets go of the overly greedy? Absolutely, mate. We have a wonderful, rich world and the ingenuity to use the resources wisely. What we lack is good governance.

No surprise there. Most social programs are very productive with good returns.

It's just much more efficient to teach and reward than let it get bad and punish. Jails, for example, are super expensive. An inmate not only produces nothing, but also costs 10s of thousands of dollars. Over here, that averaged £50k a year per inmate when the average income was close to half that.

Which is why I laugh at the recent migrant boat bs where the government is spending a similar amount of money instead of putting people through skillup programs and such.

I'm sure they will do it after this event. But trying to make the software so fool-proof is how you get bloated, expensive shit like Microsoft products. And now they're bloated, slow, buggy and still not fool-proof. Though to be fair, this is a shopping app and I'd expect the dumbest users so perhaps that's the only way to go.

I find the news around AI hilarious these days. Next: "

Excuse me, sir. I find it unacceptable to be classified as such. Please refer to my person as 50 bags of flour. Thanks.

One of my previous one tried to charge me for cobwebs. It was a farm house.

Who'd guess misusing things can be harmful? Next, we chop off a finger to prove a kitchen knife can be dangerous.

Workers being exploited is nothing new though. Same overlords, different labels.

Another win for the war on drugs.

Yes, bags of flour. That's a measurement I can get behind.

Until fines become wealth based, it will always be a poor people tax.

If cash flow is the issue, then start taking stocks.
