Cattle retention has not even begun yet, you're absolutely correct. There will be 2+ more years of higher beef prices, we're still slaughtering more than are being born therefore cattle prices will continue to rise on a macro level.
They've tried. Wendy's QSCC has tried. Walmart is trying. It's hard to be a beef packer. You have to sell the rest of the animal too, and now you're just a filthy beef packer yourself. Also sadly impossible to interface with ranchers direct, still must be fed out at a feed yard.
OP didn't say it, but Amazon also forces agreements with sellers not to list same items cheaper elsewhere online which is monopolistic.
I get the nuance you are communicating though.
Clean and strip seasoning with yellow cap oven cleaner(lye). If any rust remains, use a vinegar bath and scrubbing until it comes off. When you use the vinegar and get all the rust off do not let air dry, wipe dry then heat on stove until liquid evaporates. Reseason.
Taken too literally to this post in a vacuum, yes. Taken with the news that Kroger was thinking about dynamic pricing, don't delude yourself into thinking LLMs are the extent of what the "AI" (stupid term but let's discuss ideas and not the words) goals are. The real ultimate goal is to be able to mine the near infinite amount of consumer data available and turn that into increased profits. Dynamic pricing will be a piece of it and I believe this cartoon illustrates a piece of a complex subject in an easy to digest manner.
You and I both agree that LLMs aren't shit except for a narrow window of usefulness, mainly a distraction, and the data shows consumers don't really like "AI". So why is there still so much cash in "AI"? Maybe you think it's a market pump, but there is cash in nvda because it's undeniable GPUs will continue to be utilized in huge numbers for server farms crunching associations. There is cash in the LLM gatekeepers because those firms are large enough and far enough along the path to eventually do what filthy capitalists want with this data. First it was algorithms that prioritized engagement at any cost. Today it is LLMs. And tomorrow it is machine learning on your data and subconscious psychology in order to extract maximum profit possible from you. They've milked data-based advertising to the point of diminishing returns and the next step is to exploit us all using the data most make freely available out of convenience so that line continue to go up. I sure hope I'm wrong, but I'm a filthy fucking capitalist and don't think that's the case.
Hope to fuck we instill decent judges across this country in the coming years because honestly our best hope is to outlaw most of these practices by showing that they can't be free of unintended bias and are therefore inherently not objective enough to be used to set prices, etc. it works in a physical store but how do you prevent dynamic pricing online? Especially with an internet that looks like it will become extremely segmented
This is why so much money is being pumped into AI. This is the future and our politicians are too old to understand any of it. It isn't sentience you should be worried about folks.
You can tell most of the comment section never reads past the headline
AI solves a goal that capital is attracted to though. When AI is the gatekeeper to most data it will further entrench the power and capital of those who own it. That is why there is such an investment race. AI isn't going to be great for humanity and will eventually be used to exploit humanity, but it's going to be fucking amazing for giant corporation profits in the long run.
Thanks for the excerpt. Bought this and will read it soon!
Arby's triple cheese and bacon was amazing
From the article:
graduates would be screened “to exclude all communists, radical Islamists, Hamas supporters, America haters and public charges.”
“He believes, only after such vetting has taken place, we ought to keep the most skilled graduates who can make significant contributions to America. This would only apply to the most thoroughly vetted college graduates who would never undercut American wages or workers,” Leavitt said in a statement to CNN.

Well, yeah. Concerts are magical, and while I understand the seething hate for LN/TM, missing out on the closest thing to a religious experience is just not an option for a lot of us. We're all correct here, which is why the DOJ needs to take this on. I dropped reddit but I can't boycott this shitty company with you because I can't replace the experience.
It's administered by the DEA but the HHS actually makes recommendations and has recently recommended it be rescheduled to schedule III. There is no history of the DEA rejecting a rescheduling recommendation so things look good for this to change fairly soon!
