NYC as a location for the HQ didn’t make great economic sense, even with the subsidies, because of the high cost of living and of services. Bezos and other wealthy Amazon executives simply wanted to spend more time in NYC. That’s why it wasn’t hard to run them off. Bezos & Co., honestly expected to be welcomed after…

The underwhelmingly powered version of the A.I. is not so bad stylistically, but it isn’t so much more than a chatbot. Basically, they have made a chatbot that can write a much longer entry tied to a theme. The most obvious problem in the samples were the “Four-horned, silver-white unicorns.”

A better strategy for Trump would have been to bide his time until the next actual, emergency, like the floods in CA, or a hurricane, involving a border State. With a real emergency already going, he would have a better legal case, could just claim that the affected States can’t handle undocumented during the crisis…

The HQ and the distribution center are two different projects. The average job at the 25,000 employee HQ was going to pay $150,000. But, NYC may still get the low paying jobs, as a distribution center has to happen if NYC needs one.

They arrest a lot of people in Montana for speaking Canadian too.

Do they have a cooking mode yet, in case you need to roast a chicken on the dash or a turkey on the lithium ion battery?

Why nationalize Amazon?  Apparently they are already a de facto nonprofit.

I have often worried about this myself.  The best solution is to catch the server by surprise, and stuff cash into her décolletage or belt, when she is turned around.  This method is not unusual in the sorts of venues where customers are most likely to steal tips off the table. 

Lt. Gov Fairfax’s threat is limp dicked. As long as he is going to issue idle threats, then why not go balls out and threaten to arrest Massachusetts politicians and hold them hostage?

The first thing I wonder about, when celebrities show off their posh dwellings, is whether this is done, because they are old and their homes are more interesting than they themselves.

Premium Security cameras, high on a wall, with pan, and optical zoom, could take similar images.  I don’t buy the decision.  Frankly, judges make decisions about technology all the time, using obsolete and erroneous concepts about technology.  Now perhaps Canadian schools will be on the hook if security cameras…

Bernie: Don’t worry Ilhan, “The blacks” still love you!”

Those “Shitty little shovels” are called intrenching tools, and one soldier, talking to another would probably go with the jargon.

I thought this was going to be about dating your exes.

Your wish is granted.  The Bezos fortune will be divided in divorce court.

This is a great move in municipal politics, but the point isn’t not to denigrate America, but that the word “Awesome” is considered to have “Jumped the shark” in the U.S. If you use it the way it was intended, then you have to say it in as many sentences as possible, which is no longer cool here. However in Canada, it…

The most intriguing innovation in recent chocolate history, is Ruby, or sometimes called pink chocolate. This is made from a specific variety of bean Chocolate made from it seems to have a distinct flavor and natural pink appearance. It can be quite difficult to find. Only a few chocolatiers are making ruby chocolate…

“If Amazon can’t recognize what that’s worth, its competitors will.”- Bill de Blasio.   O.K., what competitors?  Dollar General?  Ali Express?

Originally, they were looking for one location, not  two, but then they decided to split the headquarters.  Their simplest solution might be to double the size of the Northern Virginia campus.

Why is a pregnant Spiderman objectionable?  Obviously a show like that would lay an egg and be universally panned.
