Immigrants are literally the cooks in our kitchens. Perspective is important. We are all ultimately from somewhere else.

Let’s all remember that Andreesen is the product of a state-funded public university (University of Illinois), and his wealth is the byproduct of his work at National Center for Supercomputing Applications (NCSA) at the same university.
The U of I is a diverse and welcoming community and has been as long as I can remember. Andreesen has clearly been corrupted by his wealth and has forgotten from where he came.

Missouri voters, how does it make you feel that the same people you voted to represent you are now directly and blatantly overriding your will as a voter by repealing a law for which you as a whole voted in overwhelmingly numbers?
I cannot stress enough that it is so important to vote for the people that share your beliefs. Imagine a Missouri House and Senate where almost 60% of the representatives supported workers rights over businesses (who are not people no matter what the Supreme Court said). This state would be a much different place.

Let me direct you to the following quotation from the linked Washington Post article:
To offset the bill’s cost, Republicans proposed steep cuts to Medicaid, the state and federal health insurance program for low-income individuals and disabled people; and SNAP, the anti-hunger Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program formerly known as food stamps.
Think about that for a moment. The Republican Party‘s best idea to offset the costs of this monstrosity of a bill is to directly hurt the most vulnerable in American society by impacting their ability to access healthcare and food. For most people I have come to know all over this planet, doing something like this would be a hard no.
Republican voters, this is not what you voted for, is it? You have more compassion and care for your neighbors than this, right?

As a lifelong Cubs fan, it’s strange to hear Chip Caray calling a Cardinals game. On the other hand, it’s nice to hear Chip Caray calling a game again.

We’re at a very interesting pivot point in the technology business where the teams pushing to deliver Gen AI capabilities to clients are not comfortable with using the same technology to create their own content.
What that tells me from a product perspective is what we have known for a while: evidence packages and transparency are critical for the adoption of Gen AI in critical business use cases.

Trump is an embarrassing buffoon, and his lap dogs standing behind him in that address looked incredibly weak. Can you imagine the conversation before that spectacle? “All right, guys, just stand behind me with your most awesome warrior faces. Oh, and make sure you nod in agreement to everything I say. That will look strong on TV.”
