A little ground-level, local reporting instead of the screaming national voices.

Why the difference?

you'll have to help me how one man is accelerating it by decades?
Big Corp will be driving it with or without Musk

The guy has the backing of just about every GOP politician. You don’t think there might be some sort of favorable automated driving legislation passed between now and the midterms? I don’t think Musk will be pushing overall AI itself, he’s more concerned on its use in his products. Musk’s are pretty focused on blue collar jobs as I originally noted. Truck driving is something like a top 5 profession in every state. That isn’t a very long term target like his Tesla Bots are, that is easily next ten year time frame if he can get favorable legislation. The most favorable legislation for AI is no legislation, which is what seems to be the path right now. If you are saying this administration shows a track record of regulating, I’d have to disagree. No doubt, some regulation is well overreaching and outdated. I’d have to think something like this might need some sort of regulations?

Personally, until they have the actual robots going out to job sites and people comfortable enough to discuss and develop plans with them, I’m pretty comfortable my profession is safe. Some of the office tools might be more refined to do less office work. But we are currently implementing new design software that is slower and more buggy than what we have been using the last 20 years. I’m not too concerned that I won’t make it to my retirement target. Unless AI takes away fishing and need for bait, I’ll be good in my retirement plans too. Further generations, maybe that universal income will happen, but I can’t see it happening.

Ah yes, WJAC, local news out of Johnstown. Known worldwide for their hard hitting journalism. This is clearly not a desperate puff piece.

The fact that WJAC is owned by Sinclair media, which is essentially the same kind of propaganda arm of the Republican Party as Fox or OAN or Newsmax or any others surely has nothing to do with this article. I’m sure it’s just a coincidence.

Remember this super cut where dozens of Sinclair News anchors in local stations all over the country read basically the exact same thing?

How much do you want to bet I could find a bunch of other Sinclair news articles in local news sites all over the country that have nearly identical content as this WJAC piece? Anybody care to wager?

Here ya go, DOGE cuts affecting campgrounds in PA. I knew it was only a matter of time. Bummer. I’ve camped at some of the raystown sites mentioned in this article.

I also typically camp at kinzua at least once a year. It looks like it’s still up in the air as to whether these federal spending cuts will shut down campgrounds at Morison, handsome lake or hopewell. Maybe it will just be a free for all so anybody can just camp anywhere they want in the ANF and turn it all into a garbage dump.

All the sites on the ANF are maintained by a contractor (Allegheny Site Managment).  I guess as long as their contract is funded the ANF sites should all be open.  We'll see.

We're just breezing over the TDS architect and the accusations and arrest of him eh? 

This is actually pretty hilarious. I knew some MAGA nutter was trying to get TDS categorized as a mental illness or whatever complete nonsense. But I didn’t hear that he got caught trying to have sex with a 17 year old until this morning.

Where my psu fish at? Weren’t you on here the other day calling Jon Lovett a groomer or a pedophile? I think the pedophiles are coming from inside the house bud.

No more or less than normal for Washington politicians (left and right) getting grea$ed by Big Corp, lobbyists,  and deep pocket special interests.
Just 'cause he's hi profile and agenda driven talking heads  are keeping the masses fear mongered doesn't change that Wa$hington dynamic 
 
 
gonna quote that wise man again

Two wrongs do not make a right. But three lefts do.

Operation Let them talk with be a Yuge success. The more Timmy Tampon and Chuck Schumer talk, the more the Dems polling suffers

It will be interesting to see if/how PA schools will be affected by the Dept. of Ed. cuts.  Had a good discussion at work about federal funding and Title I teachers (federal grant funded educators) and PA Intermediate Units and their funding.  I haven't been able to find info on the % of federal funds that make up PA Intermediate Units but I'm going to look.
