These programs have to be federal. Edmonton has showed that cities can do the right thing and just be punished by both market forces (people relocating for better services) and provincial governments (not increasing funding for induced demand from better programs).

I agree it should be both but I'm not the premier lol

He needs to do his part not tell everyone else what theirs is.

This is also how taxes work but with taxes you get to keep the money rather than having it explode children overseas

How about you regulate them? Putting the onus on addicts to stop being addicted rather than punishing the drug peddlers is such a cop out.

You need urinals in some fashion

I don't think you understand what the word "need" means

Board investigation:

Titled “The Ethereum Foundation Mandate,” the document featured ethereal illustrated scenes of glowing lights and anime-style characters voyaging through dark forests. The pages featured white text against a navy blue background and were adorned with cartoon flowers, rainbows and diamonds.

And on page 11 — nestled between a winking anime woman and three yellow cats — was a suicide pledge.

Authors, maintainers, editors and distributors of “this software” would pledge to ensure the software remained free and publicly accessible, and would also vow to “take his or her own life with a sword upon failure to uphold any of the pledges in this license,” the illustration read. It was labeled “Source Seppuku License,” an apparent reference to a traditional Japanese ritual suicide.

To work in crypto you have to have a fairly high baseline separation from reality but this is impressive.

THEYRE ROBBING OUR JENKEM SUPPLY!!!

Not having a poly relationship with the spy and your wife SMDH.

When deepseek came out I never looked back.

Open source should be the standard for supposedly world ending technology.

Bears allegedly shit in the woods. I've never seen one do it myself.

On one hand you need to consider future growth so the value is high because growth is high.

On the other hand the path to profitability is going to be brutal as they need to compete with Chinese models which are often on par or sometimes better (kling v suno) than the yank models. Often the Chinese models are open source too so that helps consumers, competitors and self hosters.

On the other other hand the us government could just outlaw competition in the us market and create a regional monopoly/ oligopoly for whichever companies it wants.

On the other other other hand (I am an octopus, please don't turn me into calamari, I have a family and friends) early movers in new industries are rarely the ones who make it big. If you invested in MySpace or AOL having seen a vision from the future where social media took over the internet you would be both correct and broke.

TLDR: traditional financial modeling has been thrown out the window years ago for tech companies. SpaceX is basically guaranteed to lose money for IPO buyers if you account for the time value of money. https://futurism.com/space/math-spacex-ipo-virtually-impossible
