It depends on how the management cares about the result or\and specifically needs someone responsible and with a certain reputation. International communications, e.g. UN sessions or the likes where highly trained humans do parallel translation, wouldn't be replaced at all, because a slight tonal shift in how they translate political stuff can cause a disasterous misunderstanding. Technical translation in industrial stuff shouldn't be too, for each sphere has it's specific bunch of therminology on each side, but here we are. And with arts\media, reputable companies with big money would still hire translators, but some would default to AI-unless-we-called-out mode.

The AM doesn't seem so bad now.

He and Trump and GOP aren't petty there. They inject more distrust about the whole idea of voting. Rich people and corporation can lobby, but they still can't directly buy an election or a cabinet seat in the open. They spend a lot to push up some candidate after ensuring their loyalty, and it seems suboptimal to them. There is a golden moment where you probably can game the system to make max profits and then grab the bag and run. Because democracies are at least stable, and when they roll into dictatorships, you stop playing solitaire, it's now blackjack and you are walking a thin line between bankruptcy and being shot dead by a firing squad, because your elected politician has too much power to be securely bought.

I feel like it's disproportionally favors developing startups\companies\scams who need some boost to start to break even, or old blood that can tolerate some pain if they may consume every other actor on the scene.

There are benefactors to that, and they are the worst people on the market who would only accelerate the collapse for their short term gains.

That's all bipartisan system and predetermined positions. Can't attack your own camp because at the pres race you'd hurt already choosen pres candidate and would be seen as your own camp's traitor to target so-called allies. Even after she is irrelevant, for it gives a signal you can do this to everyone else, and gives free fuel to the opponent's platform. Playing favorites in cases of infosec breachea seems wild, but here we are.

Since it was dropped in the heat of the race, I can get why it was downplayed as a rep-based attack on Hilary, but she's still okay after all of that, and I fear, she is still pickable for the next pres race instead of any other better candidate.

Like many liberal people in my country with Pooh-teen, no one believed it's even possible to degrade that quickly, and many still believe it's not really happening and can be undone in a couple of swift changes.

I think EU can take some lessons from two countries already declined in recent times.

I have a certain bias towards people with such unimaginative parents to call them Erick Erick's-son. Their household has a +20% chance of nurturing their kids to become idiots. Singling out one group of people is bad, right, but this, and all these Jr, Sr shit and calling kids after yourself should stop for good.

Yup. One of my favorite little moments in the series. It just stirs you wrong that the best builders of our world can't do this anymore.

The Earth has moved.

Gray, aged bees were moving chaotically, struggling to reconstruct the hive how only they remember, were taught to build.

The resulting pattern of squares, triangles, decahedrones was insane, and seeing this, Roland knew, their hive won't last long.

Instead referring me to a post by Deputy Communications Director Kaelan Dorr that says, in part, “The arrests will continue. The memes will continue.”

I kinda know these skinwalkers just want to lick Elon's ass rn, but that feels like another low no one ever thought is possible. What memes you, facebook bro, want to continue posting? Did your kids abandon you too? How to even start to compute this shit?

This is America.

School math is so tricky now (ah!)

You won't make me read it now (ah!)

You aren't my teacher now (ah!)

What was the universe where distant planets were used as conc camps? Red Faction? Riddick?

Their work with the games' projected GUI was properly futuristic and fitting, and it worked well on both consoles and M&B, and in DS mobile side-game too, not to say how gfx still look great all these years after.
