    Zohran Mamdani Proposes Taxing 'Whiter Neighborhoods' in NYC

    I am not an economist, so I am not sure if I can explain it properly. While rent control does seem to help affordability in the short run for current tenants, in the long term it decreases affordability, because it decreases the supply of rental property. Apparently, there are other bad effects...

    Zohran Mamdani Proposes Taxing 'Whiter Neighborhoods' in NYC

    maybe I can try to interpret what he said: Many of Mamdani's proposed policies will actually hurt those that it aims to help. For example, rent freezes actually end up raising rent prices for most. When, as a result of these policies, New York deteriorates, the people who move out should not...

    Stephen Colber Show cancelled after mocking a Trump bribe

    So, how do you know whether or not he checked the sources, or if he had preexisting knowledge? Is there anything in particular that was wrong? (I didn't read it, obviously) I think you should put some more effort into understanding what people are trying to say, and also into explaining what...

    ICE Arrests US Citizen

    This is only the case if there was no probable cause. They thought there was, though it turned out not to be true.

    American Economy in a Tailspin

    Actually, according to the IMF, our Debt-to-GDP is one of the highest in the world. Out of the major world economies, only Japan and some countries that have been in economic trouble (Greece, Italy, Argentina) are higher.

    Republican Congressman quotes Joseph Goebbels

    No. You quoted Hitler and Trump to criticize Trump's rhetoric for being similar. Rep. Self quoted Gobbles to criticize the Biden Administration's actions for following the mindset represented by that quote.

    Republican Congressman quotes Joseph Goebbels

    You literally quoted Hitler, as well as Trump. Technically, the Hitler quotes are a translated version, but that is not important right now.

    Republican Congressman quotes Joseph Goebbels

    I think you are jumping to conclusions here. You can experiment with things like phrasing and such without pulling ideas from the LLM. Even if you did, a human would still be choosing to include them (or not). As long as the argument makes sense, it should be fine, at least in my opinion. I...

    Nintendo is suing the creators of Palworld

    From what I know, yes. For patents, it only matters who registers it first.

    "Black Myth: Wukong" reaches 2.2 million current players, surpassing Palworld's 2nd place "All-Time Peak" players on Steam

    This is not really the place for this discussion, but I will tie it in with the game. It is quite unusual to see someone from Ukraine saying this. The US and its allies are basically the reason Ukraine is able to continue fighting against Russia. I guess we could do nothing and let Putin take...

    "Black Myth: Wukong" reaches 2.2 million current players, surpassing Palworld's 2nd place "All-Time Peak" players on Steam

    While I share your distaste for the DEI agenda, remember that this company reports to the CCP. Their agenda is literally the agenda of the CCP. So while DEI stuff may be annoying, it is better than supporting a regime that does is actively and purposefully doing things that are much worse than...

    Name the Switch successor: what should Nintendo call its new console?

    Switch+ seems the most likely to me aside from Switch 2.
