  • Immigrants Use Less Welfare, Even Counting Their US-Born Children

    Jump

  • Think of it this way: Federal welfare and entitlement reform that lowers the welfare consumed by the hypothetical native-born American above from $1,500 to $200 a month would be a monumental achievement. Scholars would write books, academic papers, and a million blog posts and news stories about it. American taxpayers would save money, and the scale of welfare in this country would shrink to a level so low that European stereotypes about American state stinginess would start to match reality. But you’d never know it happened if you relied on Camarota’s method of measurement.

    TAX. WEALTH. OUT. OF. EXISTENCE!

  • The idea is to reach hungry consumers by “knowing what is in their fridge without being too creepy,” said Carrie Drinkwater, chief investment officer at Carat.

    It's not only creepy, but intrusive and dystopian af.

  • Stretching is imperative. I meant to add collagen rich foods, such as pork neck/tail, oxtail, hamhock.

  • Your body and mind need food to heal properly. I don't know what your budget is or what you can access. If you can get it, fatty fish like sardines, mackerel, tuna, salmon. If tinned, in olive oil if possible. Fermented foods. Added sugars are poison. Raw, unfiltered honey is ok sparingly (chewing honeycomb has the additional benefit of boosting your immunity of local pollen allergens).

    Fresh vegetables, especially leafy greens, raw or cooked. Carrots. Pumpkin, squash, pumpkin seeds, walnut. Chicken. Apples. Milk and cheese, goat milk is excellent. Peanut butter is filling, but tree nut butters are better. Red meat protein sparingly. Stop eating before you feel full and wait ten or fifteen minutes, you'll feel satisfied. Apples, pears. Cheeses, especially stinky ones. Onions, garlic. Dates, figs. Sweet potato, white potato, but cooled and eaten cold or reheated.

    I don't know if these foods are accessible to you, if I understand correctly, budgets can be very tight in Hungary. I wish you the best.

  • This article is the epitome of values on which USA was founded and has operated, ever since. Stop worshipping a piece of paper. It is not, never was, and never will be meant for anyone but rich, white, male marauders.

  • Meta is considering partnerships with betting platforms Polymarket and Kalshi as it continues to develop its own betting service

    Jump

  • This is what all capitalism is. The capitalists copy, take credit, gradually degrade the project while paying capitalist cronies more and more inflated prices for supplies, contracted labor, line go up for a few quarters, capitalist decides to cash out, too bad for the public, astute business management.

    Aka flood the market with extraneous bs rather than plan the economy around legitimate public need and benefit, while any surplus can be traded and donated to global communities for global need.

  • The Free Market Lie: Why Switzerland Has 25 Gbit Internet and America Doesn't

    Jump

  • Now look at Switzerland. Here, the physical infrastructure, the fiber in the ground, is treated as a neutral, shared asset. It’s built once, often by a public or semi-public entity.

    Every home gets a dedicated 4-strand fiber line. Point-to-Point. Not shared. Not split 32 ways.

    That dedicated fiber terminates in a neutral, open hub. And any internet service provider can connect to that hub.

    Init7, Swisscom, Salt, or a tiny local ISP, they all have equal access to the physical line that goes into your home.

    Llama, ik-Llama, Krasis, etc are already out. The Chinese are the open ones, with free downloads, open weights, and loads of published research. The USA with OpenAI is some of the most closed shit out there.

    Given the state of corruption in politics, I think Anthropic and OpenAI will likely bribe … oh wait I mean “lobby” … for bans on open source. Otherwise their imaginary trillion dollar valuations make no sense.

    This. They can see their valuations slipping. They hope that in a few/several years they will start reaping profits. However, in several years local hardware will be well suited to run models locally at 80-90% efficiency - for "free". You won't need frontier models for daily tasks in a few years. I'd guess.

  • People have explained, extensively, with few and more words. Are you being deliberately obtuse? Can you speak without snapping and snarling like a rabid cur at those who try to help you?

    There is only one person itt who is beligerantly and stubbornly arguing this buffoonishly stupid idea without an iota of forethought, let alone deep, serious thought. So I will break it down in small words and after this, I am done, ignorant, hateful fool:

    The same weapon you would turn on "stupid" people will as easily be turned on you. Just like the woman in the article, you seek to harm others, and may very well be harmed with your weaponisation of the voting system. Your stupidity has been loudly and proudly displayed* with every reply you typed here.
