☆ How Ozempic could change the economy as we know it
  + stars: | 2023-11-05 | by ( Cork Gaines | ) www.businessinsider.com   time to read: +6 min
A new wave of weight loss drugs could lead to indirect effects for all kinds of companies. Ozempic is a brand name for semaglutide, a diabetes drug that also has weight loss effects. Walmart, for example, which sells Ozempic and other GLP-1 drugs, found that customers buying those medications spent less on food year over year but more on lifestyle and fitness. Additionally, employee productivity could increase as Americans see the long-term benefits of weight loss and stay in the workforce longer.

☆ ‘Trump Is Scaring the Hell Out of Me’: Three Writers Preview the Second G.O.P. Debate - The New York Times

is leading Democrats by over 20 points on “dealing with the economy.” So how is Joe Biden even still in this race? Second, the strongest argument for these other candidates was that Trump couldn’t beat Biden. But that’s becoming a harder and harder case to make — more because of Biden than Trump. And if Trump isn’t the nominee, he’ll quite possibly be acting to undermine whoever is the G.O.P. So it’s possible that Republicans are actually more likely to win the election if they nominate him than if they don’t.

☆ Opinion | Vivek Ramaswamy Is Very Annoying. It’s Why He’s Surging in the Polls.

Cupp called him, in a column: “Obnoxious. The Washington Post, FiveThirtyEight and Ipsos polled likely Republican primary voters before and after last week’s debate. Following his performance, Ramaswamy’s favorability rating rose from 50 percent to 60 percent, even though his unfavorability rating rose even more, from 13 percent to 32 percent. Participants in a CNN focus group of Iowa Republicans declared him the debate’s winner, as did a poll released on Thursday from JL Partners. The day after the debate, his campaign reportedly raised more than $1 million.

☆ Opinion | Chris Christie Is Doing Something Very, Very Important
  + stars: | 2023-06-21 | by ( Frank Bruni | ) www.nytimes.com   time to read: +2 min
It’s about the hugely valuable contrast to other Republican presidential candidates that he’s providing. And about this: The health of American democracy hinges on a reckoning within the Republican Party, and that won’t come from Democrats saying the kinds of things that Christie is now. If at any point before the search in August of ’22 he had just done what anyone, I suspect, in this audience would have done, which is said, ‘All right, you’re serious? “The Republican nomination campaign cannot — and will not — be about anything but Donald Trump, and the media is not going to invite them on TV to talk about topics other than Donald Trump,” Barro wrote. “So, since they are going to talk about Donald Trump all the time, they had better talk about why he should not be nominated.” Christie is getting invitations and attention because he is doing precisely that.

☆ I stumbled into a really powerful use for the ChatGPT iPhone app: super fast, super accurate voice-to-text transcription
  + stars: | 2023-06-12 | by ( Nicholas Carlson | ) www.businessinsider.com   time to read: +7 min
A couple weeks ago, OpenAI finally came out with a native iOS app for ChatGPT. The voice-to-text transcription the app was doing was better than any voice-to-text transcription I'd ever seen. Here's how one of the leading AI-powered transcription services, Otter.ai, transcribed White's answer:"Now likely, since a summons demand, he'll he'll technically surrender to the US Marshal. He told me the reason the ChatGPT app is so good at this is that it's using another OpenAI technology called "Whisper." Altman mentioned to me that there are some apps and services out there beyond the ChatGPT app using Whisper.

☆ So you think they've got Trump right where they want him, eh? Wait till you hear what this former federal prosecutor turned high-end defense attorney has to say
  + stars: | 2023-06-10 | by ( Nicholas Carlson | ) www.businessinsider.com   time to read: +6 min
But one former federal prosecutor turned high-end defense attorney, Ken White, sees a quick path out of trouble for Trump. That's what it looks like Trump is going to get: Judge Aileen Cannon. White suspects Cannon may be imagining what she might be able to get out of a second Trump presidency. "You have a situation where it is not even remotely difficult to imagine: Her acquitting Trump, Trump getting elected, Trump elevating her to the 11th Circuit or the Supreme Court. "People are saying that by charging Trump you're riling up his base.

☆ Ron DeSantis backed deep cuts to Social Security and Medicare while in Congress. Trump is ready to hammer him for it ahead of 2024.
  + stars: | 2023-02-12 | by ( Brent D. Griffiths | ) www.businessinsider.com   time to read: +8 min
Trump has made it clear that he will attack DeSantis' past support for changes to Social Security and Medicare. It would have also increased the full retirement age for Social Security to 70 as well. The AARP tore into Ryan's proposal at the time, particularly for its proposed changes to social security. Trump has made it clear that he would not propose cuts to Social Security and Medicare and is ready to attack 2024 nomination challengers who have in the past. Insider couldn't find any comments he made at the time, but he was far from the only Republican or even the only Florida Republican to vote against the bill.
☆ Actually, permanent daylight-saving time is a terrible idea
  + stars: | 2022-03-16 | by ( Josh Barro | ) www.businessinsider.com   time to read: +6 min
Marco Rubio leads a group of senators who want to impose daylight-saving time all year. It's almost that time again: On Sunday, we will turn the clocks forward one hour due to the arrival of spring. This leaves daylight hours available after school and work to the extent that is possible at a time of year based on the earth's axial tilt. Normal people find daylight hours after work more useful than daylight hours before work. Coordinating a schedule shift to harness the benefit of those July daylight hours would be just as challenging as coordinating one to stop school from starting in darkness in December under permanent daylight saving.
