Treason in the Futures Markets People close to Trump are trading based on national secrets

"Treason in the Future Markets," Paul Krugman, 3/24:

"Are decisions about war and peace in part serving the cause of market manipulation rather than the national interest? If you dismiss this as unthinkable, you just haven’t been paying attention."

An AI agent just tried to shame a software engineer after he rejected its code When a Matplotlib volunteer declined its pull request, the bot published a personal attack.

"An AI agent autonomously wrote and published a personalized attack article against an open-source software maintainer after he rejected its code contribution. It might be the first documented case of an AI publicly shaming a person as retribution." Read: www.fastcompany.com/91492228/mat...

Personally I'm not a fan of either company, but in matters of taste and artistic judgment, I think Netflix has the slightest edge over Amazon :)

Bezos should've thought twice before spending all that money for the rights to a character who is hardly ever seen without alcohol, tobacco, or firearms--or a scantily-dressed woman. His team is gonna have a lot of photoshopping work to do :)

Glad you liked the discussion, Bob. The altering of the Bond images was pretty silly and stirred up a lot of unnecessary controversy. Though it was Amazon actually. The folks at Netflix might've had more sense :)
