    I’ve been unable to replicate this. Could you please show me an example? I ask everyone who makes this claim and have yet to see a concrete example. I just can’t get it to do anyth…

    SamA strikes me as overly disingenuous - as if most of his interactions are marketing pieces / warfare. The entire lex + sama podcast seemed this way to me. I’m incredibly biased t…
