1.2.9 for me. Seems like I might have to revert to the older one.

Nah; get rid of lobbying. Make it illegal and make truth in advertising law.

World Cup tourists aren’t leaving tips — and restaurants are fighting back
I visited the US 3 years ago and tipping was a bloody pain in the bum. It added probably 20min to our meal as the waiters took a while to get change. Further, asking every 15 minutes how our meal was going was quite exhausting; mainly because we knew it was performative for more tips. We tipped 20% each time but it's really, really frustrating not knowing the price up front.
Back home, I'm used to paying up front and then leaving as soon as we're done. Waiters leave you alone, unless you're a regular, and ask you how the meal was at the till if you pay after.

The cost keeps increasing. That's hilarious.
But of course he was building a bunker. There's literally no surprises there. It'll be the new den of rape for sure.

Thoughts?
I think this question pits parents and others against each other, when it shouldn't. Parental leave is necessary to raise a child. But at the same time, workers in general need leave for mental health among other things.
I also think this is more of a problem for places like America where leave is really, really unfairly distributed and there's basically no worker protections. There should be plenty of medical and annual leave, as well as government support in case medical leave isn't enough to get better.

Military Leaders Reportedly Sidelined 'Not Well' Donald Trump From Critical Iran Rescue Mission Over 'Crazy' Behavior
They fact that America has no avenue for 'vote of no confidence' and government dissolution is astounding. Still, it's a good wake up call for the rest of the world to break ties and rethink alliances.

Professors Say AI Is Destroying Their Students' Ability to Think

No, it actually doesn't. How LLMs work is that it takes in written words and makes a sentence based on the likelihood of what the next word will be based on human readable text. That's literally it.
Hence, there's absolutely no guarantee that ChatGPT's 'review' of your homework will always be 100% correct because it is probable that the answer was written incorrectly in the billions of lines of text it has been fed.
On the other hand, a calculator has been superficially wired for it's purpose to process an input. 1 + 1 will always equal 2.
I'd wager your supervisor will be horrified to learn that you're getting an LLM to learn from rather than your peers. This is why i absolutely hate that it's being used as a substitute what essentially makes us human: art, music, research, learning etc.
It's a tool that needs a licence because you need to know how to use it to complement your existing skills, not supplement it.
