Debt Ceiling Crisis- We've Been Down This Road Before

CNN

Even if some Republicans manage to get their way in the next few days forcing us into default there's no reason this time would be any different then the last. Congress has proven time and again they are the worst money mangers in the world.

Who is PoliticsGirl?

I spend most of my internet time on YouTube. There's so many reasons why. I learn things both scientific and otherwise. The music videos for sure.

Probably one of the biggest video archives in the world which was ever created. Hence why so many of them appear here on this blog. Besides these people express my thoughts better then I can most times.

John Durham Report Faults The FBI For Investigating Trump

Yeah sure, nothing to see here folks. Now Republicans are going after the FBI and funding for it. To my way of thinking the GOP is trying to pave the way for another trump presidency no matter what it takes. In short Durham's four year investigative report is designed to be a nothing burger.

How can we be certain AI isn't hiding in numerous servers throughout the world through internet connections? Could Ai being playing dumb to avoid being turned off?

Something which would be impossible for humans to do. It also can process almost an unlimited number of operations at the same time. Again something us humans with our biological limitations could never do.

Perhaps in the large scheme of things we're not 'all that and more' as we suppose ourselves to be. All and all rather humbling I'd say.
