Oh, crap. Totally failed to read earlier comments.

They don't mention that at the age of three she played the Wicked Witch of the West in The Wizard of Oz!

I'm sure someone at one point sent a newt into orbit...on purpose even...

Oh you want to do some more name calling. Ok you UnAmerican, open boards, commie retard prick!

FUCK YOU - you spend four decades supporting people and policy that created a wildly difficult situation to unwind, and then you complain when not everything is done perfectly. Except some of us see thru it. You know perfectly well you can't make an omelet without breaking a few eggs and no law enforcement effort in all oh history of any scale can be done entirely without incident.

You want amnesty and free for all, so you cling to impossible standards. Trafficked by ICE yeah ok dude so we have to allow 1000s of people to be trafficked by seriously bad actors because my goodness our enforcement operations might make mistakes that could impact a few hundred people unfairly. Who cares what country they came from, they have no right to be here. If someone is trespassing on your property and you ask them to leave you don't owe the bus fare home! It isnt your problem where they go, but they can't stay where they are. They should have considered that before being trespassers in our country!

Your policy choices have cause more children to be raped than Trump could ever harm if it is literally all he did all day! Save your bullshit you don't care about anyone but yourself and that is abundantly clear you shit eating viper. You just want your cheap toys to play with and fuck the nation!

Wow you are just hitting on EVERY buzzword aren't you?

Right wing leaders generally don't have centrally planned economies or socialist welfare states

Israel's more ethnically diverse than any European country and has peaceful relations with many "non-white" countries around the world. In fact it's specifically affluent whites that hate Israel the most.

So it's legal for literal nazis to commit genocide and annex territory but illegal for their victims to come back after a couple years. Got it. You should tell everyone living in former Vichy France that. And all the Czechs living in the Sudetenland. And the Belgians. And while we're at it probably want to let the Ukrainians know everyone moving back to the Donbass after liberating it are "illegal settlers".

West bank of what? You mean the territory west of the Jordan river? That's Judea and Samaria, it's been called that for over 2000 years. "wEsTbAnK" was invented by Jordan in the 1950s after they committed genocide. You know, that thing you pretend you're opposed to?

protip buddy the people following the Nazi Party are the people literally telling you they love Hitler and hate Jews

. They're literally telling you they're Nazis. They're not hiding it. There's no "dog whistles". They stick their arms out, use the swastika all over the place, and flat out tell you how much they support Hitler and Nazism.

Schrodinger's leftist. Every leftist is a leftist until the moment they're politically inconvenient to other leftists at which point they become right.

that presented themselves as "male" were paid more per task and perceived as more "human-like" than their "female" counterparts

Those complaining loudest are the ones, who can't define the term "woman".

If H1B were really about skilled foreigners filling gaps that can't be filled otherwise, their salaries would be high relative to US citizens.

In a free market, your salary is proportional to how hard it is to replace you:

Push buttons like a trained seal? Peanuts.

Know where to place the the thousand dollar chalk mark? Mid six figures easy.

So what do H1Bs at Microsoft make?

If these links

are to be believed, kinda average for a software engineer. Maybe even a little low. Boston area under 160k.

Not the stereotypical monkey pushing a button, but not exactly top flight talent either.

Not that you claim this, but others might infer that this would make C safe in the same way that Rust is. It wouldn't come close.

If it's anything like the Oscars, the whole thing is determined by whoever pays the highest bribe to promote their crap. I don't get why people get excited over the world's longest, most boring advertisement.

The observed disparity in monetary rewards between the male- and female-presenting AI assistants can be explained by several methodological factors rather than purely gender bias. Most notably, participants rated the female-presenting assistant as significantly less human-like than the male counterpart, a factor explicitly linked to lower reward allocations throughout the study. Additionally, the researchers used specific off-the-shelf voice and visual models, meaning technical variances in audio quality or visual realism between those specific assets could have driven user preference. Furthermore, initializing the underlying language model with gendered names to establish character roles may have subtly altered the tone or quality of its responses, inadvertently affecting the user experience. Finally, because the experimental task asked participants to fund the AI's future "development" rather than pay a direct wage for completed work, the financial allocations likely measured perceived organizational utility rather than a true evaluation of the assistant's labor.

Oh JFC.....

What's next...Trans-Bots and DEI for underserved Bot minorities?!!? H1-Bot....?

It sounds interesting from a hardware perspective ....

....but "Windows"? Ick...no thanks.

Oh FFS.

This "private army intimidating people" is nothing of the sort. It is the administration doing EXACTLY what the 1996 law requires of it. The fact that everyone just ignored the law for 30 years does not make Trump the criminal now and it does not make what ICE is doing illegal. It makes what everyone did from 1997-2020 the CRIME.

If you don't like immigration law - then win enough elections to change it. What Bush did, what Obama did, what Biden did on the subject were actual crimes. My gwd DACA - holy crap an entire program made up entirely by executive whim based on wild interpretation of a few line in the code. Wow that honestly sounds a lot like what everyone accuses this admin of doing when it comes to things like tariffs. Funny how we only have laws when the LEFT does not like what President is doing, when the RIGHT does not like it miraculously the courts are unable to find any legal standing, and the legislature decides it has to play its constitutionally assigned role...

What is missing from the entire conversation right now is Trump is governing pretty much EXACTLY like Bush, Obama, AND Biden did. The attitudes about authority and rule making all the same. Even the rhetoric, anyone remember "bitter clingers", once again the real difference is nothing other than who it is directed toward.

The truth is their is no actual air between the leadership styles of Obama and Trump, the real reason he gets so much hate is because the opposition's heroes are opposite sides of the same coin.

Did you try watching "History of the World Part II"

I did, I went in really really wanting to like it. It had its moments like anything that long will but mostly it was dull. Mel should have left well enough alone.

They sat and laughed because it was fun. A lot of those old shows are still funny. That certain demographics did not or no longer find them funny should inhibit the rest of us.
