you can turn off a lot of things like energy/water/waste management and set it to unlimited money and easily pleased citizens and play it pretty casually.

seems risky. how much would you need to sell to make it worthwhile? how much of that will you need to front for printing and traveling around following trump? how well can you afford to lose all of that money and time if they don't bite?
the day is approaching when we can ask an ai model to solve all of physics and it can actually create raving nonsensical rants claiming to be a grand unified theory of everything while denouncing the academic establishment for ignoring its genius, thereby automating the thankless task of giving physics grad students someone to punch down on

“The question in this case is whether [the federal law] also makes it a crime for state and local officials to accept gratuities — for example, gift cards, lunches, plaques, books, framed photos or the like — that may be given as a token of appreciation after the official act. The answer is no,” said Justice Brett M. Kavanaugh, writing for the majority.
Despite his reference to token gifts such as lunches and framed photos, the federal law was triggered only by payments of more than $5,000.
yeah, or the like here means a 1.2% finder's fee on a million dollar contract explicitly solicited by a city mayor, but it happened after the contract was already awarded, so that's just the cost of doing business, i guess

they'll probably smugly point out that it's tongue-in-cheek and both island are on the canadian side of the imaginary line that runs through the st. lawrence river but it'd be kinda funny if some border patrol agents decided to wait on the "american" island to tackle and arrest the homeowner for illegal entry or something

the speculative ai bubble is going to make these next few years be deeply unserious
humans starting keeping books full of numbers and invented rules to move the numbers around long before we had computability theory, and invented laws to enshrine the sanctity of those numbers and punish anyone who manipulates the numbers against the rules, and constructed sociolegal algorithms to drive up the numbers, and in our slavish devotion to this machine we've built around ourselves, our final desperate pleading hope is that it will create an "artificial intelligence" for us that will somehow in its statistical hallucinations provide answers that help us escape before the machine bleeds to death
Beijing's planned takeover of Chinese residential real estate might cloak the nation's property crisis, but it will surely kill China’s fundamental economic momentum.
>If the leaks and rumors are true, Beijing stands ready to launch a new and radical solution to the economy’s property crisis – a government takeover. What the authorities refer to as “a new model” would replace the old emphasis on ownership with more rentals and use government funds to buy up bankrupt properties so that in time the government’s role in real estate would rise from 5% of the market at present to 30%. Such an act would surely take the nation back to its communist roots if not quite the days of Mao Zedong. If it would veil the property crisis for a time, it would in the long run do tremendous damage to China’s economic prospects.
