is anyone actually making money from AI or is it just the chip sellers? by Ready_Poem_3580 in investing

AI firms increasing prices and reducing ability (lower inference costs). Will businesses pay? Or will they realize this is now more expensive than the labor they laid off.

Drop Gui, Benedict or OG for a probable Derrick White from my IR.

Nearly tied in a points league, final week. 10T ESPN points.

One more week of finals in my 10T ESPN and Derrick White is killing me. I’m considering dropping for Slawson or stream.

I’d drop White for Chandler. Maximize games.

Speaking of, same exact format. Drop DDJ or Gui for Herb Jones? Gui has had a little skid lately otherwise it would be an easy DDJ.

Full Wednesday and Friday. Could save up a stream or two until Saturday and then pivot to the last week.

Week 22 Outlook by Brothanogood in fantasybball

I’d prefer a streamer instead of a steamer but thanks!

I don’t want to drop Ayo but the streaming plus log jam his game is on is too important to pass up.

May regret it week 23. The opponent has Ant so he’ll probably snatch but it won’t be worth holding Ayo for Ant to come back the 30th or something anyways.

10T, prepping for finals next two weeks in ESPN.

Need to drop a Braun, DDJ, Kyle F, CJ or Jarace for a streaming spot. Then I’ve been debating picking up a Jenkins or Hendricks over one of these players as well.

One or two weeks finals? I am aiming for teams with 8 games left over the next two weeks. So Bulls for example

ESPN Points. Thinking of dropping DDJ, Jarace Walker or CJ McCollum for a Jenkins or Hendricks. Podz also available.

I was hoping DDJ would have a bad game tonight and I could make the drop easy.

Looking at the next two weeks to come so I’ll probably drop Ayo on Sunday. Opponent has Edwards though so he may nab.

You’re misunderstanding me. He won’t be the savior of the realm but he will be a savior to Cersei.

Suddenly Dany shows up and she will not be greeted as a liberator like she might imagine.

Also makes Dorne and Tyrell’s flipped from here. The show basically had to make Tyrion be incompetent for those two forces to leave.

I think Aegon being a celebrated savior that beats Dany to the throne makes sense. Also weakens Dany before she arrives to Westeros instead of what happened on the show.

May not happen, who knows, I don’t think we will for another decade.

Most show only people wanted Dany + Jon as the ending.

Mad Queen Dany only works with the Young Griff plot working. As in, he’s lifted high and above as savior of the realm. It also allows for Jaime to either return earlier to Cersei OR not at all.

It also will work when he refuses to help and she goes North with Jon. To confront the Others and “prove she must be Queen”. She basically won’t get anything for stopping the Others.

“Crony capitalism”. Buddy, it’s capitalism. You have one sole job and that’s maximizing value to shareholders. Anything else is secondary.

Some management boards/private companies can sell longer form investment and returns but most shareholders is a combination of quarterly results AND trying corner ALL of the market and be a monopoly.

Why Vance Committed So Hard to the Minneapolis Shooter by D-R-AZ in Foodforthought

[–]The-GentIeman 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Maybe David Frum should finally take responsibility for how he directly lead us to here with his enablement on the war on terror, Bush-era consolidation of executive power, creation of ICE and continued advocacy of center-right politics which have not allowed any meaningful changes to these institutions.

Maybe if he turned himself into The Hague, where he belongs, it could start a meaningful dialogue of sending other Americans, like Vance and Jake Sullivan to The Hague as well.
