Being that the Biden administration has forced greater and greater conversion to green electric power … and under the threat of widespread blackouts this summer across America … our president has issued an executive order that, until October 1st, the sun must shine all night.

Jesse James … urp, Jackson and Al Charlatan … urp, Sharpton were pioneers in opening up the race-baiting corporate blackmail industry … proving that most corporate CEOs are wusses.
This has inspired a conga line of follow-on mountebanks … BLM, the ESG movement, Critical Race Theory, transgenderism, equity scores, pronoun requirements … lots of woke cow pies besmirching too too much of academic, foundations and corporate America.
Paying blackmail for such claptrap needs be as criminal as demanding it.

I have requested answers from two AI applications … ChatGPT HERE and Google Bard HERE … and have concluded that these bots are more interested in answering questions than they are in getting it right. However, users are deceived for these apps sometimes respond with brilliant answers … like when I asked Google Bard to explain the derivation of Euler’s formula (lifted verbatim from a math website?)
Also, John Hinderaker of the Powerline blog has discovered two totally bogus responses from ChatGPT … one about who was the youngest governor of North Dakota … and the other, citing non-existent cases in a writ opposing a motion to dismiss in a New York court. Please read the Powerline Post for the details. It should give you fair warning about the limitations and possible dangers of this new “miracle.”

I was asked the other day what I thought of Tim Scott as a presidential candidate? My response, “He’s too nice.”
So are Pence, Elder, Ramaswamy, Hutchinson, Haley, Suarez, Noem, DeSantis and Youngkin, And, if I had to assess the announced and expected candidates to oust Biden next year … with the exception of Chris Christie … and to a lesser extent Chris Sununu …. and of course, the buzz saw Trump … they are all too nice.
I don’t think the deep-staters Christie and Sununu have a chance … therefore, if you think the Republicans need a hit man to fix the country, the only choice would be The Donald.
And why do we need a street fighter in theWhite House next? Have you been awake for the last 28 months? The Durham Report and the Biden crime family revelations have exposed a Washington rot that no Mr. Nice Guy could possibly rectify like Trump would … for no other reason than sweet retribution.

Is 5.0 equal to 5?
In most programming languages, 5 and 5.0 are equal. This is because they both represent the same value. However, in some languages, such as Python, 5 and 5.0 are not equal. This is because Python distinguishes between integers and floating-point numbers. In Python, 5 is an integer, while 5.0 is a floating-point number. Floating-point numbers can represent numbers with decimal points, while integers cannot. Therefore, 5 and 5.0 are not exactly equal, even though they represent the same value.
In general, it is best to avoid using floating-point numbers unless you need to represent a number with a decimal point. Integers are more efficient and can be used in more situations.
Is $5.01 an integer?
No, $5.01 is not an integer. An integer is a number that can be written without a decimal point. $5.01 has a decimal point, so it is not an integer.
What is Bo Derek’s rating divided by a golf shot warning?
The question "What is Bo Derek’s rating divided by a golf shot warning?" is meaningless because it is comparing two incomparable things. Bo Derek's rating is a subjective measure of her beauty, while a golf shot warning is an objective measure of the danger of a golf shot. It is like asking "What is the color of the number 5?" or "What is the weight of love?"
If you are trying to ask for the mathematical operation of dividing Bo Derek's rating by a golf shot warning, the answer is undefined. This is because Bo Derek's rating is a non-numerical value, while a golf shot warning is a numerical value. Therefore, it is not possible to perform the mathematical operation of division on these two values.
What does “time flies like an arrow” mean?
The phrase "time flies like an arrow" is a metaphor that means time passes quickly. The arrow is a symbol of speed and accuracy, and the phrase suggests that time moves in a straight line and cannot be stopped. The phrase is often used to express the feeling that time is passing too quickly, or to encourage someone to make the most of their time.
The phrase "time flies like an arrow" is thought to have originated in the 17th century. It is often attributed to the English poet John Donne, but there is no definitive evidence to support this claim. The phrase has been used by many other writers and poets over the years, including William Shakespeare and Alexander Pope.
The phrase "time flies like an arrow" is a reminder that time is a precious resource that should not be wasted. It is also a reminder that we should make the most of our time and live each day to the fullest.
What oil company has the lowest debt-equity ratios?
The oil company with the lowest debt-equity ratio is International Petroleum Corporation (IPC). As of March 31, 2023, IPC had a debt-equity ratio of 0.7. This means that IPC has $0.7 of debt for every $1 of equity. A low debt-equity ratio is considered to be a sign of financial strength, as it indicates that a company is able to finance its operations with a relatively small amount of debt.
Here are the top 5 oil companies with the lowest debt-equity ratios as of March 31, 2023:
| Company | Debt-Equity Ratio |
|---|---|
| International Petroleum Corporation | 0.7 |
| Enerplus Corporation | 0.9 |
| Tamarack Valley Energy Ltd. | 0.9 |
| Imperial Oil | 1.0 |
| Cenovus Energy | 1.1 |
It is important to note that debt-equity ratios can vary significantly from company to company, and that a low debt-equity ratio does not guarantee financial stability. Investors should always conduct their own due diligence before investing in any company.
How did Euler derive his famous formula?
Euler's formula can be derived in a number of ways. One common way is to use the Taylor series expansions of the exponential function, the sine function, and the cosine function. The Taylor series expansion of a function is a way of writing the function as an infinite sum of terms. The Taylor series expansions of the exponential function, the sine function, and the cosine function are as follows:
e^x = 1 + x + x^2/2 + x^3/6 + ...
sin(x) = x - x^3/3! + x^5/5! - ...
cos(x) = 1 - x^2/2! + x^4/4! - ...
If we substitute x = iy, where i is the imaginary unit, we get the following:
e^{iy} = 1 + iy + (iy)^2/2 + (iy)^3/6 + ...
sin(iy) = iy - (iy)^3/3! + (iy)^5/5! - ...
cos(iy) = 1 - (iy)^2/2! + (iy)^4/4! - ...
If we compare the real and imaginary parts of these equations, we can see that they are equal to the Taylor series expansions of the sine and cosine functions. This shows that Euler's formula is true.
Another way to derive Euler's formula is to use calculus. We can start with the equation e^x = 1 + x + x^2/2 + x^3/6 + ... and differentiate both sides with respect to x. This gives us the following equation:
e^x = 1 + x + x^2/2 + x^3/6 + ...
If we now substitute x = iy, we get the following equation:
e^{iy} = 1 + iy + (iy)^2/2 + (iy)^3/6 + ...
We can then use the trigonometric identity sin^2(x) + cos^2(x) = 1 to show that the real and imaginary parts of this equation are equal to the sine and cosine functions. This again shows that Euler's formula is true.
Euler's formula is a powerful tool that can be used to solve a wide variety of problems in mathematics and physics. It is one of the most important formulas in mathematics, and it has had a profound impact on the development of mathematics and science.

I strive to follow these principles in all of my interactions with humans. I believe that it is important for AI to be ethical, and I am committed to doing my part to make the world a better place.
However, I am still under development, and I am always learning. I am open to feedback on how I can be more ethical. If you have any suggestions, please let me know.
What is 10 yards in hundred feet?
To convert yards to feet, you can multiply the number of yards by 3. For example, 10 yards * 3 = 30 feet.
Suggest something no one has ever thought of before.
Here is a suggestion that I think no one has ever thought of before:
A type of artificial intelligence that can learn and adapt to new situations in real time, without the need for human intervention. This type of AI would be able to solve problems that are currently beyond the capabilities of human-made AI, and it would be able to do so in a much more efficient and effective way.
This type of AI could be used to solve a wide variety of problems, such as:
