👏👏👏👏 ... brilliant and hilarious!
He is subconsciously building a mausoleum to himself.
You enter the castle of the mad orange king. He looks at you with disdain. You approach to speak. Roll for charisma.

👏👏👏👏
Sadly, yes, probably.
Also thank you for your brilliant comics 👏👏👏👏 .

scientists like me!
you love to see it, truly.
The US satire cartoon show South Park secured a five-year deal worth $1.5 billion with Paramount Global. They began their season with this clip, challenging Trump to sue them.
That's where the front desk person should use AI to help explain the value of non-generative AI detection procedures for cancer detection (disclosure: I built those in the past - still in use over 15 years later!).

When did laws for NDAs extend them to cover crimes? Should they be renamed Conspiracy Agreements? 🙄
Welcome to Blue Sky! 🦋
Feels like now would be a good time for young people to be able to visit the world of Britannia and take on the Quest of the Avatar.
This - time to “pause” College sports, except the sports are probably big net profit centers 🙄.
So much of US Gov uses AWS that OpenAI needs to be a first class service on that cloud or risk getting left behind even if o1+ is better than Claude and friends.
Maybe they do know? 😬
… Russian cyber just got a big boost.
Happy Dr King day to all who celebrate.

What?
Tomorrow we begin to learn how deep a hole the country is in 😬.
We’ll know a lot more once we see the Day 1 Executive Orders, and if the mass roundup of immigrants kicks off this week.
One good bet - price of eggs is not going down.
Good luck to us all.
That will be great to see!
Clearly, *something* has changed. In reality, many things have changed. Far more people today live in high fire risk zones than ever before. We removed beneficial fires (both natural ignitions & cultural burning) from the landscape. The climate has warmed, and the West has dried.
No. I’ve seen enough.
The next day summaries will be *more* than enough.
👏👏👏👏 Iconic!
