This is looting of a government by its leader and his family in such a bold and open way that a Boss Tweed or Huey Long would have stood righteously opposed and explained to underlings that they should dare. It's stealing in plain sight. And everyone involved will need to be one day prosecuted.

Does hosting a professional sports team benefit the local community? Evidence from property assessments

Local governments often justify subsidizing sports stadiums as economic development projects that have positive returns on investment. If this is true, economic and quality-of-life spillovers that are capitalized in local property values ought to generate additional tax revenue for host municipalities through increased property assessments. This analysis uses the synthetic control method to estimate the effect of a new publicly-funded professional baseball stadium and team relocation on property assessments in Cobb County, Georgia. Cobb assessment values did not increase relative to other metro-Atlanta counties following the stadiums’ announcement or opening, which is inconsistent with the stadium having a positive fiscal impact, even with its desirable location and accompanying mixed-used development. The findings are consistent with past economic studies and are likely generalizable to other stadium projects.

I directly looked at this, and property values in Cobb County did NOT increase because of the stadium. link.springer.com/article/10.1...

Paying hundreds of dollars to TurboTax to file your taxes?

Know this: Trump took $1 million in donations from TurboTax— then killed the IRS’s free tax filing program.

Is Anthropic 'nerfing' Claude? Users increasingly report performance degradation as leaders push back Anthropic has actively been tuning these settings across different segments, which could plausibly affect user perceptions even if the core model weights are unchanged.

Imagine being one of those CEOs who laid off thousands over “AI efficiency” only for the AI to get dumber than a pile of bricks weeks later.

Given how tokens work, you’re paying more for a worse product. It now takes 5 minutes to be wrong which took 30 seconds for a right answer a few weeks ago.

As an experiment I'm letting the paid tier of Gemini assist me in running my fantasy baseball team this year and based on my experience with this so far, the idea that LLMs are ready to take anyone's job is insane.

So far, Vance’s foreign policy record is yelling at Zelensky for not thanking Trump enough, campaigning for AfD in Germany and Orban in Hungary, getting rejected by the Pope on his invite to the US, and failing in the Iran negotiations.

Instead of fighting back against the Iranian LEGO videos making fun of Trump, the White House put out memes attacking fellow Americans.

Winning the information war is like shooting fish in a barrel for Iran. And the White House dares to complain about losing the information war battle

This is such an embarrassment. Looking forward to the deathly silence from the people who breathlessly slammed the Iran nuclear deal for unfreezing Iranian assets. The deal which Trump ripped up and is now recreating piecemeal and in the stupidest possible way.
