Apparently this shift in strategy worked, since the company is still here.
$3,000,000,000,000 understatement.

Looks like around 8,000 Michael’s were born in 2023, so probably about another 4,000 so far this year. I’ll not sure at what age American’s start mutilating their children’s penises though, so I guess some of those might already be done.
You know I was going to put that first but couldn’t getting the spelling close enough for predictive text to pick up and didn’t want to randomly say “genital mutilation” to my phone while sat on the bus.
The USA has a male circumcision rate of over 80%, so likelihood is that Mike is already cut.
Yeah, same as Alphabet. Neither of these renamed their key product either. Just put a new company on top.
He’s partly right
Even a stopped clock gives the right time twice a day.
England had the death penalty only abolished for murder in 1969.
So the options would have been, maybe get convicted of something you didn’t do and be hanged, or trial by combat so you have some agency in the whole either death or freedom thing I guess.
In the UK it’s culturally seen as almost as bad as the n word.
Rhymes with Jackie.
Or the P word. Or is that racial slur not such a thing in the states as it is in the UK for someone of south Asian descent?
Or that Ding Dong the Witch is Dead reached Number 2 in the charts just after she died.
Yeah I agree if you send it without doing any kind of personalisation. I think LLM shine as a template or starting point for various things. From there it’s up to the user to actually make it theirs.
I get what they mean. It can help you articulate what you’re feeling. It can be very hard to find the right words a lot of the time.
If you’re using it as a template and then making it your own then what’s the harm?
No, again that’s coming from behind. You leap ahead of someone like in a game of leapfrog.
“Pulls ahead of” would have worked as that can mean that she’s behind and then overtakes, or is already ahead and increases that lead.
You missed the biggest points, it has no utility and its value is entirely speculative.
Wow word salad.
it’s a British newspaper so it’ll use British terms.
gaining on means to come from behind in British the same as it does in American
the headline is misleading, “pulling ahead of” should have been used but that’s not clickbate enough.
the independent is a piece of shit since it went online only.
To be honest, as a brit, when he first started running the first time I thought he was a ( literal) joke candidate. Like a US comedian that did absurd characters along the lines of Sacha Baron Cohen.
In the UK we call it a dead cat strategy.
There is one thing that is absolutely certain about throwing a dead cat on the dining room table – and I don’t mean that people will be outraged, alarmed, disgusted. That is true, but irrelevant. The key point, says my Australian friend, is that everyone will shout, ‘Jeez, mate, there’s a dead cat on the table!’ In other words, they will be talking about the dead cat – the thing you want them to talk about – and they will not be talking about the issue that has been causing you so much grief.[1]
What’s that got to do with the price of fish?
