    @Tom-K said in 76% of Americans: I was having a bathoom redone. I was quoted a price by the contractor--$12,000+ I asked the worker (Juan) how much he was getting--$700. So........ lets say that the contractor was not using an illegal immigrant. What do you think the bathroom quote would have been? As I have say before, people vote with their wallets. As @Doctor-Phibes said, illegal immigrants can mean a lot of problems, but inflation is probably way way down on the list.

    Trump has historically underpolled. If true this time, it could be a bad night for Harris in the battleground states.

    Agreed. I just don't think she's a reasonable candidate for POTUS.

    @Axtremus said in Mortality rates in Russia: Got a comparable chart for Ukraine? I didn't do the analysis, but I was thinking the same thing. Do they blame the immigrants for this? I didn't do the analysis here either. Perhaps you can reach out to the poster and ask?

    Review of "Melania" : https://www.washingtonpost.com/books/2024/10/08/melania-trump-memoir-review/ The dominant theme of “Melania” is one of graceful grievance. ... “Melania” is a love story, actually. It’s about two famous vanity plates who truly are perfect for each other.

    How the hell do I remember the name of that obscure planet this long after the movie came out. Maybe because it's also the name of a great restaurant at Big Sur.

    Is wind power woke? Let's check the Google AI Overview. Yes, some say that wind power is "woke" because it has attracted billions of dollars in investment and employs thousands of workers in Texas. Paul Krugman, a New York Times opinion writer, argues that Texas Republicans have had to abandon their free-market, anti-regulation ideology to oppose wind and solar power. https://www.google.com/search?q=is+wind+power+woke%3F&rlz=1C1JSBI_enUS1093US1096&oq=is+wind+power+woke%3F&gs_lcrp=EgZjaHJvbWUyBggAEEUYOTIHCAEQIRigATIHCAIQIRigATIHCAMQIRigATIHCAQQIRigATIHCAUQIRigAdIBCTg0ODFqMGoxNagCCLACAQ&sourceid=chrome&ie=UTF-8

    @Mik said in Learn To Code: I'm not convinced AI can keep in mind the many, many things a human programmer can AI is made by humans. AI is a child of man. Code made by AI is a grandchild of man. Why did I say man and not woman or humans or something like that? Oh, did I say man? Hmmm.

    Hell, I don't even want Democrats taking over my township. Republicans run largely unopposed in my county, and our county and local governments provide superb service.
