We mailed the USDA acreage report late since we knew it was fubar.
As conveyed after all expenses we went even and switched gears on protein
production. As conveyed we are fallow for another year for reasons they cannot fathom.

99.7 have no idea what you just said H.

If 0.3 do I'd be surprised.

I'm in the 99.7%. What do you mean?

When entities who are not legitimate producers or buyers (in other words, do not have actual production to sell or want to buy actual product for consumption) are allowed to enter markets, markets mechanisms will break down is the best and most succinct way I can think to put it. The dots between the first part of the sentence and its conclusion are more complex that I could think to put into a one post response. To do the response justice would require me to read and highlight all relevant posts in this forum that relate, then assemble that into a coherent response. One discussion that comes to mind is the one back in 2008 about the oil price spike to $147. That discussion just by itself would take a couple hours to review and digest so as to not miss any important points.

I think the way to understand this is to separate the goal
from the implementation.

Suppose you have an AI computer that knows how to find and
kill people. It won't know whom to kill unless if has a specific
goal.

So if the goal is "kill anyone," then it will kill anyone.

If the goal is to "kill prostitutes," then it will figure out
who the prostitutes are, and it will kill them.

If the Americans set the goal to "kill jihadists," then it
will figure out from the internet who the jihadists are, and
it will go out and kill them.

If the Chinese set the goal to "kill Americans," then it will
figure out where the Americans are, and go out and kill them.

So you have exactly the same AI software in all four cases, but with
different goals.

As I wrote previously, computers have been able to value equity for
decades according to various algorithms. This is a pretty well
understood these days. So, for example, one could set a goal for an
AI computer to do a historical analysis of equity values to determine
the best algorithm for evaluating equities. And then the results
could be used to predict equity values in the future, and the system
will in time do a better job at it than the best humans.

And just think, all they had to do was play fair.

Clinton staffer, Joel Davis, arrested yesterday on pedophilia charges.
This link goes to justice gov site and is an unsealed complaint filed in the southern district of NY.
