It’s Getting Harder to Find Mining Engineers a Green World Needs

“Fewer students study mining engineering in some key regions. Shortage of graduates risks crimping output of critical metals.”
Michael Bloomberg once said "I could teach anybody, even people in this room, to be a farmer. It's a process. You dig a hole, you put a seed in, you put dirt on top, add water, up comes the corn. Now comes the information economy, and the information economy is fundamentally different, because...
Isabella Weber Has Neoliberal Economists Running Scared
Via: Nerm_L • News Viners • 5 Comments • 2 Likes • 2 years ago
“Eighteen months ago economist Isabella Weber faced intense criticism for blaming inflation on corporate profits.”
Oversimplification and obfuscating smoke won't create a viable theory of economics. Stating the obvious does not impart credibility to the oblivious. Seller's inflation? Or buyer's inflation? How is it possible to distinguish between the two? And what is the role of middlemen in the economy...

“Liberal groups are trying to end Donald Trump's attempt to return to the White House by arguing he's ineligible to be president after trying to...”
When in doubt, rig the election. Apparently liberals don't trust their own propaganda. Spin any way possible but this is not a rousing endorsement for Joe Biden and Kamala Harris. It looks like Biden has gotten liberals worried.

“The current funding for the government is set to expire at the end of September when the current fiscal year ends”
Nothing ever changes in Washington D.C. At least Biden has another crisis to scare voters. Granny is gonna starve in the gutter again.

“Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson has sued Kia and Hyundai, blaming them for the city's spike in auto thefts due to a lack of "advanced" safety features.”
REAL NEWS, NOT SATIRE. If this story were satire it would be writing itself. The real news is putting comedians out of business.
Joe Biden's Proposed Social Security Changes Come With Unintended Consequences for the U.S. Economy
Via: Nerm_L • News Viners • 24 Comments • 3 Likes • 2 years ago
“A deep-dive analysis finds that President Biden's Social Security overhaul would reduce U.S. gross domestic product by 2030 and 2050.”
Another typical neoliberal screed built upon lies, skims, scams, swindles, and flimflams. Neoliberals firmly believe they own the US economy and have a God given right to cheat people every way possible. Neoliberals would poison the sky just to sell clean air. Isn't that what John Kerry is...
Obvious Biden social media blunder earns 'community notes' fact check and mockery from critics

“Social media users ripped President Biden for getting the dates wrong on his Inflation Reduction Act legislation in a recent post he shared to X...”
So, Biden even types gaffes? Biden even screws up bragging about himself.
Takeaways from the first Republican presidential primary debate

“For all the fireworks in the two-hour showdown, the debate had the feel of an undercard.”
What debate? I didn't see any debate. If Republicans are going to run pay-per-view politics from Biden's basement then Trump is the nominee by default.

“A study has found that training AI image generators with AI images produces bad results.”
The common description would be 'trapped inside the bubble'. We've experienced how bubble thinking feeds back on itself until it stagnates and degenerates. The phenomena is quite commonly observed in news reporting. So, generative AI has successfully mimicked human intelligence (or lack of...
