Just from your description, isn’t the point of the de minimis exception to support small businesses and help them compete against larger companies that can bulk import?

Just curious, why?

Are we expecting the original to get deleted?

Basically, don’t invite either of them to queer Thanksgiving.

For people who want a real link to help them with Linux migration, end of 10 might be worth checking out.

Yea, several reviews basically say the cast looks diverse at first, but they turn out to be one-dimensional.

I wish we had more examples of authors writing something as ambitious (explicitly multicultural and incorporates real-world ethnicities) and actually succeeding.

I did not know that. Good to know.

I stand by my comment, time traveler.

I think the purpose of a parachute is so that it can be used in an emergency, yes.

If, like me, you were curious about what “disaster” is referring to, it’s basically this:

The flight attendants are told to prioritize guard orders over prisoner safety (aka keep them in chains). And they have no evacuation protocols. If the plane crashes or people need to parachute out, the prisoners will be left for dead.

There’s no way this happened after the year 2000.

I haven’t seen horseshoe used as a verb in… ever, but that still made sense.

There was another post about this a while ago. It depends on what app you use.

Does that mean that people who lose their ability to reliably form new memories (like anterograde amnesia or Alzheimer’s) experience reality like a dream?

Clickbait. They basically say replacing contractors with AI is business as usual for Duolingo and that the real crisis is DOGE.

Here’s the article:

Duolingo announced plans this week to replace contractors with AI and become an “AI-first” company — a move that journalist Brian Merchant pointed to as a sign that the AI jobs crisis “is here, now.”

In fact, Merchant spoke to a former Duolingo contractor who said this isn’t even a new policy. The company cut around 10% of its contractor workforce at the end of 2023, and Merchant said there was another round of cuts in October 2024. In both cases, contractors (first translators, then writers) were replaced with AI.

Merchant also noted reporting in The Atlantic around the unusually high unemployment rate for recent college graduates. One explanation? Companies might be replacing entry-level white collar jobs with AI, or their spending on AI might simply be “crowding out” the spending for new hires.

This crisis, Merchant wrote, is really “a series of management decisions being made by executives seeking to cut labor costs and consolidate control in their organizations,” and it’s manifesting as “attrition in creative industries, the declining income of freelance artists, writers, and illustrators, and in corporations’ inclination to simply hire fewer human workers.”

“The AI jobs crisis is not any sort of SkyNet-esque robot jobs apocalypse — it’s DOGE firing tens of thousands of federal employees while waving the banner of ‘an AI-first strategy,’” he added.

Thank you for putting this behind a content warning.

I mean, I still opened it, so that’s on me.

There’s a DreamWorks logo in the bottom left.

Easy to use, multi-threaded, light… weight? (I’m on mobile, using a VPN, so I’m guessing that’s why it failed me. Unless…)

I would agree if we stopped making marriage the end goal of relationships.

I remember a Freakonomics episode that described an experimental alternative to traffic cops: a “good driver” lottery.

If you’re “caught” driving the speed limit, you get entered into a lottery. Less adversarial relationship with traffic cops and more drivers would be incentivized to drive safe more often.

Edit: It was apparently an article, not a podcast.
