Unless it's a retweet, then it's bottom-up for one and top-down for the rest.

I know my work already has reports built by running data through Claude and having it spit out an xls. Though, it's not quite as integral as the all-important closet laptop.

What exactly do you think the CEOs of large corps do? Make sound decisions based on their experience in the trenches of their industry? Ha! Their entire role is to be a frat boy, party (aka "network") with other CEOs, allow the board/private equity to make dumbass decisions that'll tank the company, then take the fall when those decisions inevitably lead to problems. Nepo baby is a legit resume booster because it means you were born with more connections than most people will ever have.

Yep, indoor is much safer and healthier for the cats. It's not like cats have goals and ambitions out in the big wide world. They spend most of their time laying around and doing that on a couch vs under a bush is only meaningfully different in that one location comes with a much higher risk of parasites and being eaten.

Not to mention that it is much easier to monitor the health of indoor cats. Tracking weight, litter box usage, and food and water intake can easily add years to the life of a cat. Though, outdoor cats probably need to worry more about cars and bobcats than kidney disease.

They don't want Google having access to all of the juicy customer behavior/interests and product pricing information. Any privacy benefit for end users is purely coincidental, but very welcome. Though, I'd hope anyone that cares about privacy even a little bit is staying far away Gmail and others like it.
