re: People are very emotional their $20 silver certificate bills are practically worthless.
Posted by lsuconnman on 2/28/26 at 10:43 am to OlGrandad
I've been dying for this to arrive. When this thread started I coincidentally found a liberty bond poster. Which was the catalyst for the USSC decision that allowed FDR to debase the currency, and depreciate the silver backed war bonds by 50%.
When I saw it, I FOMO'd it, and probably paid double its value.
1918 Liberty Loan Poster. Round V.
Perry v. United States (1935) was a landmark Supreme Court case (one of the "Gold Clause Cases") where the Court held that while the U.S. government’s repudiation of gold clauses in Liberty Bonds was unconstitutional, bondholders could not sue for damages because they suffered no actual loss. The 5-4 decision affirmed the government's power to devalue the currency during the Great Depression.

AI has become the excuse to reduce workforce because of bloated staff and bad hiring. They also send the message "we're using AI" buy our stock.
Cramer’s interview with Intuit’s CEO today was a next level display of mental gymnastics.
He spent the first half explaining their software is immune to AI replacement because the services are regulated and needs humans.
…Then he spent the second half touting the new AI partnerships that will enhance their own LLMs.

re: Tourette's activist has very unfortunate outburst at BAFTA awards

Perhaps this was already addressed, but I just saw where the BAFTA awards were not live and there was a two-hour window where this could've been edited out. Weird.
It’s a little hard to believe the producers unknowingly placed a mic by the autistic guy, especially knowing the guy was on fire walking the carpet earlier.
They wanted a serendipitous outburst hoping for a viral moment, and ended with a little more than they bargained for.

re: I honestly thought this was a fake statistic, but it isn’t. Tokyo budget vs NYC budget

quote:What expenses does each city cover? For instance local schools in the US are funded in a small part on a national level but mostly on a state level. Looking at NYC they cover 50% of their public school funding. Is that representative of how Japanese public schools are funded? Louisiana and Tokyo are close to each other in budgets. Japan is more heavily taxed than the US so there may be more to this data. I was going to post something similar initially but went to look if anyone pointed it out. I imagine Japan's federal government covers a lot of spending in municipalities so the localities themselves don't tax/spend as much. Just different government strutures.
And half of Louisiana’s budget is Medicaid.

Most contractors aren’t stupid. I’d bet most hear attorney or doctor and immediately request payment upfront and add an additional fee for potential headaches.

That was dumb. Everyone knows you stay unmarried to do that, or at least you use the maiden name for the mother and children.
If you insist on being married, you live along a state line, and register in the non working spouse’s state.

There’s a stark difference in the atmosphere from year’s past. The number children and 40 year old athletes running around is a head scratcher.
It’s bizarre that with endorsements athletes can now choose the Olympics as their professional track.
It’s hard to believe all the geriatric athletes can so easily displace the youth any youth movement.

They would have also charged him with trespassing.
…if he wasn’t trespassing, God help any dude that walks into Victoria’s Secret with prurient intentions.
This is one of those situations where you can escape the charges but not the process.

Looks like they packaged all the important buzzwords together.
At first I was like, ooh rugged edge ai
Then I looked at the website and saw they advertise rugged hardware for your AI servers.
But, now I think they may just be repurposing G-shock cases for iPhones.
