I admire the decision to call it a "pied-à-terre tax," because no one who's not rich thinks they own a pied-à-terre so won't feel personally threatened by a tax on them.

Have you seen The Wire, written by a veteran police reporter in Baltimore who collaborated with a local veteran
narcotics officer?It's intended to be a realistic gang-LE portrayal. So, I'm sure this jab is an acknowledgment of Trump twisting reality into his own fantasy

in an article full of great points and great quotes, this stood out for me the most one of the best articulations I’ve read re: ai being anti human

section of text from The Handbasket article linked in the post quoted (an excellent argument against ai use in journalism and against its use in general) that reads:

“Telling a machine that can't perceive that it can't perceive won't make it perceive that it can't perceive. It can't make you be the best version of yourself because it doesn't know what that means, nor does it know what it means to aspire. Just because some are given a human name and users are taught to address it collegially doesn't make it real. You cannot force a machine to become human. You're stuck, for better or worse, with your fellow humans for perceiving your aspirations. Perhaps the problem is that you don't like how humans perceive you.”

"I don't go to church. Kneeling bags my nylons." —Jan Sterling as Lorraine, the greedy (but perceptive) wife of the man trapped in a cave in Billy Wilder's ACE IN THE HOLE. Sterling was #BornThisDay right here in New York, New York, in 1921.

Jan Sterling squints into the desert sun in Ace in the Hole. Behind her is a truck with an all-timer of a Billy Wilder joke painted on the side: "THE GREAT S&M AMUSEMENT CORP."
