So when there is a critical shortage of teachers and bus drivers, will they call in the military to perform those tasks?

Forgive my ignorance, but isn't this one of the few good jobs for AI?

I'd add NY to that shortlist. Port of Elizabeth is technically NJ but they aren't fooling anyone.

My friend's daughter is Eowyn. It's becoming more common.

I think it has already started. It just hasn't consolidated yet.

I had it. 2 days. Very sudden onset. Very violent puking.

Well I still need to find a job. ASAP.

My wife got some postal mail about unclaimed funds that looked bogus. After several repeats, we found out that it was due to her uncle passing away intestate.

My wife's already deceased father and him had mingled their finances. But another cousin had found out first and had already moved on cutting us out.

Fixing it has taken over a decade, but the estate finally closed last month. Our share total was around $350k. The thieving cousin probably got away with double that. But hey, a free windfall for retirement.

Unfortunately, I'm out of work so we're living off of that money now.

I've never found ear buds that work for me. I need glasses for everything anyway.

For me, the hearing assistance aspect is important.
