Toronto@lemmy.ca•19-year-old man allegedly stabbed family member before being fatally shot by police in Mississauga: SIU
3·1 month agoI am a little bit distressed by the use of lethal weapons by our police forces. I think their minds are unduly influenced by what’s going on in the US. In this situation there was no need to deploy a gun. He’s in the basement. Talk him down. Wait it out. Their lack of patience has resulted in a death.

Personal insults really indicate you know just how gravely ignorant and wrong you are. your entire conclusions based on false premises just don’t stand. Don’t let your feelings get in the way of FACTS. You can be better than this. Make that choice.

politics @lemmy.world•Ocasio-Cortez Says ‘We Should Not Be Entertaining a Bailout’ of AI Industry as Bubble Fears Grow
29·2 months agoAOC is right, if AI bubble burst, companies shouldn’t be bailed out. I want to remind people that not ALL bubble bursts have resulted in bail outs. When the dot-com burst, there were no bailouts. There was a short recession of 8 months, and the rest of the world continued on in its aftermath. When the commodities bubble burst, in the 2000s there was no bail out. When the housing bubble burst, there was bailout because banks had lent too much money into the housing bubble. If banks fail, there would be bank runs, and that contagion would have spread everywhere and the entire financial system would have collapsed. Currently, there are no bank debts nor bonds being issued to spend billions on AI data centers. The danger will be when leverage is used to fund these trillion-dollar outlays. Currently there is very little debt tied to AI bubble. Most of the AI spending is coming from the humongous tech companies with loads of cash on hand and with fat profit margins who are plowing it all into AI data centers. When it does go bust, their valuations will deflate but the business will still remain. Watch for use of leverage or debt in AI. Once it enters the equation, that’s where the systemic risk will begin to tick up.
