    In other words, this is a group who have come to realize that they were marks in an extensive con. To paraphrase Tony Montana, "You stupid fucq. Look at you now!". Why trust those …

    Jump up and down, stomp your feet and call them bad. It changes nothing. It's time to wake up and smell the coffee --- according to the World Bank, when adjusted for purchasing pow…

    The West thought that free trade and capitalism would change China. Instead, China devised a hybrid economic system that is changing the West.

    AI is a messy new legal frontier. AI can and will provide inaccurate facts, bad advice and invalid conclusions. In a lot of these cases, there is plenty of legal ramifications and …
