Also, disgusting billionairs sailing their private yachts easily camouflage under maritime shipping statute to escape any fuel tax (they just need to buy a candy bar at the marina shop of any other country they departed from during their trip)

The digital countermove to Trump tariffs
America’s mid-air dismantling of the global system of trade represents a one-time chance to compete
The powerful countermove to Trump’s bullying 👉 repealing the so-called anticircumvention laws forced by US to prohibit tampering with or bypassing software locks that control access to copyrighted works from which US monopolist giants extract huge rents.

Trump’s tariff policy has nothing to do with trade 'If you understand Trump’s actions as the use of executive power to bully into complicity the institutions that would otherwise stop a slide towards autocracy, then it is easy to see how tariffs fit into the plan’ US Sen Murphy 1/3

A meme showing President Trump, a penguin and JD Vance at the White house. Trump: Nice suit. Penguin: I'm nude. Remove tariffs or I shit on this chair right now. Vance: be careful with the couch.

Screencap of article headline and subheading: "'Trade war with penguins': Trump places 10% tariff on uninhabited Antarctic islands. Planned tariffs shared by the White House included a 10% duty on imports from the barren Heard and McDonald Islands"
Picture in bottom half of penguin wearing a bleached blond wig. Yellow caption: "I am never going to financially recover from this."
I'm in real tears, y'all...

At least he wore a tux.

Waiting for Takeoff: The short-term impact of AI adoption on firm productivity
In this study, we tackle the critical question of whether AI adoption leads to productivity improvement at the firm level.
Despite the hype, past research found no clear link between AI adoption and long-term productivity gains. Now a new report from @torontomet.bsky.social confirms it: no solid evidence that AI drives short-term productivity growth either. dais.ca/reports/wait...
