The New Coffee Room

You know, the platform they were required to divest from or we were going to shut it down.

Something I haven’t thought of before - your AI agent decides on its own to do a task that costs you $700 in less than a minute.

Oops.

I’ve never thought too much about the Trump crime family abusing the betting markets just because they’re too lightly traded. A few hundred k is a lot of money for a DoD mid level employee but not worth the Trump’s time. The big trades before presidential moves tend to be in financial or oil markets where you can make 100MM in a few minutes if your dad is President.

Also these trades are easy to investigate - everything is documented. So you know it’s someone with confidence that they won’t be subject to such investigations. That’s a small circle.

Is that really a movie? I just assumed an AI generated fake trailer.

Interesting. It was a good decision. HP absorbed and then more or less killed compaq.

Breaking News: A U.S. soldier who helped capture Nicolás Maduro has been charged with using classified information to bet on the mission on Polymarket.

Nice.

You need a custom guitar for that, @andyd

Interesting.

The DUI hire really needs to go. Our best hope is Trump blames Iran on him and fires him in a few months.

Me neither. Sad story.

He should read the language the Texas legislature offered to their voters.

SBF is in federal prison for something similar to this.

I suspect (without opening the link) that snap excluded prepared foods so that it would buy more and people wouldn’t waste it at McDonald’s and rotisserie chicken just got caught up in that definition. But I agree with Horace, it’s cheap and nutritious and easy for a single mom.

It’s not clear to me how much of that erosion has been from true believers vs lesser-evil voters or, in the pundit space, grifters. We have evidence for example that Tucker never believed Trump won the 2020 election (though that evidence comes from an unreliable source- Tucker himself).

The percentage of people who believe he won the 2020 election is very similar to the percentage rate that view him favorably on the economy and the Iran war. That’s probably more or less the same group of people.

When the White House approached Texas about doing this Nate Silver wrote a piece that the Democrats are in a position to probably win the battle if they try. They had trifectas in fewer states but those states had higher populations hence more reps.
