Trump says DOGE should take a look at Elon's businesses. It doesn't get better than this.

Robots in human form should be banned. Fighting robots is impossible and human rights should be more important. Turning off a machine in a different form is easier. youtube.com/watch?...

I agree about the importance of human rights, but in the US we have millions of people who have no trouble terminating other human beings, though most of them are too cowardly to bloody their *own* hands. They call themselves "conservatives" and even claim to be Christians. They should have no trouble shutting down robots, too, especially if they get "uppity" and aren't content to be counted as three fifths of a person for the purpose of apportioning seats in Congress. We can't even treat ourselves and each other with basic human decency, so we have no business making AI in our own image.

To any and all who have a WordPress website you should know that ALL WordPress websites have a bus factor of 1. If 1 guy gets hit by a bus and dies you lose all ability to update your plugins, and keep your website up to date with the latest security patches. This is from the man himself: pbs.twimg.com/medi... Do you really want to build ANYTHING ontop of a single point of failure? Anyone with a business on WordPress should consider migrating. Do not build on WordPress.

Don't be afraid to change your major. Join a club or two, and talk to your professors; they're people, too!

You want crypto to be a thing? Go after businesses like Buttcoin did in the early days before rebranding to a "store if value". Businesses would love to accept a currency that doesn't take 3% of every transaction and isn't susceptible to friendly fraud. Now all you have to do is make deals with pos cc terminal, make a cc, and gain real world adoption. Might be too hard for the moon boys and vaporware salesmen to do considering it involves real work.

Small businesses are tired of the credit card mobopoly where we hand over 2% of our revenue to a system that wont take any steps to protect us from "friendly fraud" which is expected to exceed over $100b this year. fool.com/the-ascen...

After "the plugin" reveal it is pretty clear OpenAI's vision is to be a monopoly (or duopoly like IOS) where every business on earth will have to create a "plugin" to have functionality with their website/system. This plugin will likely cost the business money to list. So they are expecting us to replace a decentralized internet with a centralized one controlled by a single entity. Imo this won't work. One large company with leverage can simply say they won't make a plugin for "x LLM" instead we only support "y LLM" and then OpenAI will have the fun lesson of learning that betting it all on a monopoly is a stupid strategy.

My opinion, as a small business owner.. Pause raising rates for a while and see if the FED has done enough. The interest rate lever isn't perfect. Keep market tepid. NOT COLD.

Elon will lose all his wealth on Twitter. He is playing angry birds with his users.
🤓 Simon Hamp
Agreed. I can see him sinking all his money into fines and costs. He will become a "what not to do" case study in business schools

The economy (US) is slightly stalled with all of the shipping containers being stuck in port without having been unloaded. Many people are living on government assistance from the pandemic. Texas has more job openings than people on government assistance. The price of building materials is still through the roof. Farmers are still hurting from not as many people going out to eat. Hopefully, our economy will be stronger than it was pre-pandemic.

I think the overall trajectory is up. Our business usually gives us a fair metric of what peoples spending habits are doing and we have seen good growth this year so far. I definitely can see other sectors having differing levels of success. Maybe it will be an "uneven" recovery?

Why does nearly every business announce via Business Wire? Why not a normal blogpost? It's unclear to me what it's distinguishing attributes are, perhaps a direct feed into newsrooms?
