Historically, guillotines have turned on the poor; on people who happened to be related to or employed by the targets of the guillotine-wielders; on the people who did not share the exact ideology of those who won power; and then in full circle on the people who enthusiastically called for and employed the guillotine.

CEOs to Yahoo Finance: "WARNING! We see conclusive evidence that the consumer is being squeezed from all sides, with low income families faring the worst. Housing costs, energy costs, food costs all spiking requiring families to make hard choices on their purchasing, and we see significant declines in sales"

Also yahoo finance: "The good news is savvy investors can navigate this with strategic investment..."

Speed running to #guillotines

[email protected] - Y’all, we need to talk about upcoming #IPOs, and the insane rule changes that #nasdaq has just announced.

Nasdaq rewrote its #index inclusion rules to accommodate #SpaceX’s mega-IPO, implementing a "Fast Entry" provision that allows the company to join the Nasdaq-100 index just 15 trading days after its initial public offering, down from the standard three-month seasoning period.  

They also eliminated the minimum float requirement of 20% available public shares and instead stocks with less than 20% of shares publicly traded, Nasdaq applies a 3x multiplier to the free-float for index weighting purposes, artificially inflating low-float giants like SpaceX in passive funds.

Ok, but in English? #SpaceX, #OpenAI and #Anthropic have just figured out a scam to force every passive #IRA, #401k, and index fund to buy their stock before pricing evaluation.

They’ve figured out how to steal your #retirement.

Turns out, that OSS-cloning company is real, and the CEO is even more of a slimy asshole than you would expect.

In view of recent #MayDay polemics in #Montreal, including social-democrat politicians denouncing theatrical #guillotines by front-line workers, I have another excuse to post this amazing video, from the opening of the Paris 2024 Olympics no less. https://bit.ly/3QPnIlQ

Going on websites in 2026 and beyond:
Are these images AI?
Is this website structure AI?
Is this written by AI?
If just one of these questions is YES, then they all are.

This, too, was waiting for me when I returned home. I'm sure it will provide many hours of entertainment.
