I really think most ‘journalist’ are “news influencers”

Because that is what churches are supposed to do - promote politicians 🙄

These scams are effective because of a thing called Amygdala hijack which

“is an emotional response that is immediate, overwhelming, and out of measure with the actual stimulus because it has triggered a much more significant emotional threat.”

You can get any human to do dumb things if you can by-pass their logical brain and have them work off the lizard brain.

I can see a future where the Internet is completely run by bots and AI to the point where no human actually uses the Internet anymore.

It’s like an island that gets overrun with rats - there are just too many to deal with so you leave.

I think Jake Tapper and many others shouldn’t be called a journalist but a “News Influencer”

It sets both the technical requirements and recommended best practices for determining the validity of methods used to authenticate digital identities online. Organizations that interact with the federal government online are required to be in compliance

My argument is that if this document (and others) are requirements for companies shouldn’t there also be a more approachable document for people to use?

Sure, have the jargon filled document that those in the know can access, but without an additional not so jargon-y document you’ve just added a barrier to change. Maybe just an abstract of the rule changes on the front page without the jargon?

I don’t know, maybe it’s not a big deal to compliance officers but just seems to me (someone that isn’t a compliance officer) that obfuscating the required changes behind jargon and acronyms is going to slow adoption of the changes.

LEMMiNO - doesn’t post videos often but it’s good stuff when he does

Remember when trump lashed out at FBI directory Comey when he produced a new piece of ‘evidence’ against Hilary in October of 2016, calling it ‘election interference’?

… yeah me either.

Alice Walton, one of the owners of Walmart "while speeding in Fayetteville, Ark., she struck and killed Oleta Hardin, a 50-year-old cannery worker. She never received so much as a ticket. "

I also choose this man’s dead wife.

You don’t have to if you don’t want.

But whether you like it or no rich entertainers like Taylor Swift get lots of media and views. Which parleys into influence and bringing attention to a candidate or an idea.

This is the reason why anyone that wants to grow a brand and/or an idea will try to get a celebrity to endorse it.

Edit: This doesn’t mean they know more than the average joe it’s all about marketing

myNoise.net

from the site: “Discover a world of immersive and customizable soundscapes that can enhance focus, relaxation, and sleep. Choose from noise generators, nature sounds and ambient music to create your perfect audio environment.”

If that is the case, then it reads like California is solving the wrong problem.

If a person is undocumented due to their parents decision, then the federal government should make it much easier for them to become an American citizen.

Yet, somehow trump would be able to get away with it.

This is what fucked Bernie Madoff.

If this person had gone to VC’s with a pitch for ‘AI listening model’ with the explanation that “Now musicians can up load their songs to streaming services and AI will listen to make sure their pitch and tonality is accurate and that the beat is correct.” or some bullshit like that. Then it would have been ‘legal’

Serious question:

What would it look like for Harris or the DNC to be a bully to trump?

and having a strong and active FTC working to enforce price gouging laws would really help too.

Having a strong and active FTC working to break apart (almost) monopolistic grocery store chains would be a good start.

From a different post but I think it works here too:

I think the error is calling these people journalist. They are not. They are content creators.

Their job isn’t to get to the truth, it’s to drive clicks and comments. It’s to enrich them and their employer.

There are good journalist still out there but since they don’t play to the almighty ALGORITHM they get drowned out.

A week before the Hamptons fund-raiser, on July 25, Mr. Trump stunned one of his wealthiest patrons, Miriam Adelson, the widow of the casino magnate Sheldon Adelson, by having an aide, Natalie Harp, fire off a series of angry text messages to Mrs. Adelson in Mr. Trump’s name, according to three people with knowledge of what took place.

The texts were particularly jarring because Mrs. Adelson and Mr. Trump had a friendly meeting just a week earlier at the Republican National Convention, according to a person briefed on the matter. The texts complained about the people running Mrs. Adelson’s super PAC, Preserve America, into which she is pouring millions of dollars to support Mr. Trump.

At the time, Preserve America was spending nearly $18 million on a week’s worth of ads aiding Mr. Trump in three battleground states. The texts said that the officials running Preserve America were “RINOs” — Republicans in name only — and that Mrs. Adelson’s late husband would never have tolerated that, the people said.

According to two of the people, aides to Mrs. Adelson later discovered that the outburst against her had been encouraged by another major Trump donor, Ike Perlmutter, the former chairman of Marvel Entertainment, who had hoped in vain that Mrs. Adelson would contribute to a rival super PAC that he backs.

They are starting to eat their own.
