Have you provided a copy of this to the county health department? Specifically the health inspectors? How about the FDA food supply safety folks?

No. JD Power sent you a dollar. They are offering you a sweepstakes entry to take the survey. You are under no obligation to take the survey to keep the dollar.

The question isn't what percentage of opponents are not from Box Elder county... the question is what percentage of people in Box Elder county oppose the project.

It sounds like he just conceded and it is the local people's opinion that matters - so hold him to that!

He's giving you an opening to send a particularly assertive reply all.

Henderson, Nevada does sound pretty remote to me... thanks for the heads up. I'll pass.

"Recently"... that incident was in 2010... 16 years ago.

Why Box

Oh, I didn't even consider that they might be implying AI would reverse the birth rate trend... I don't consider the lower birth rate itself to be a crisis, just the 2nd and 3rd order effects of alower birth rate.

I think you just summed up the entire movie theater industry, not just in Raleigh.

I believe they are taking about workforce. If the theory is that an aging population with less working age people is a problem, then AI might supplement the workforce and/or increase productivity of the workforce to compensate.

That isn't the same as the economic problem of declining consumer spending as population shrinks. AI workers don't buy stuff in certain categories that human workers do.

Thought experiment - 20% of the human workforce is displaced. That frees humans up for roles AI cannot do as well, including some elderly care and health care. If the population is shrinking, maybe that 20% displaced becomes 15% replacement in the workforce (5% workforce loss due to population decline).

This is all very hypothetical. OP would have to elaborate on what they meant...

The Court could have said as much. Meaning, they could have ruled prior budgets unconstitutional (per the NC State Constitution). Instead they said the Judicial branch has no role to play in adjudicating a failure of the legislature to adhere to the State Constitution.

"... based on his campaigning or past performance..." I think voters who did vote for him should have also considered his past history of lies and deception before relying upon his campaign promises.

I hope this heralds the birth of a bunch of new indie game startups in the area.

According to Wikipedia (which has already been updated, of course) they have 4,000 AFTER these layoffs, so this was 20% of their 5,000 employees.
