“I really worry about what’s going to happen to the government workforce,” because of “regular” shutdowns, Hassett said, warning they could deter people from joining the federal workforce.
Not the loyalty-pledge-to-Trump part and the constant cuts regardless of shutdowns?
Looks like a little glassbreak keychain tool would make for a quick and crunchy exit.
“This next heist will be far more daunting. It will take years of planning and—oh no way, it was changed to ‘Louvre1’”

I think the other half of this is the confidence with which it’s programmed to give the answer. You don’t have to go through a couple individual answers from different sites and make a decision. It just tells you what to do in a coherent way, eliminating any autonomy you have in the decision process/critical thinking, of course. “Fix my sauce by adding lemon? Ok! Add a bay leaf and kill yourself? Can do!”
“What is the charge? Throwing a meal? A succulent cold-cut meal?”

This is very much true. Ghost writing is also done to keep the voice of the author, as much as possible. Doug Stanhope, notable comedian, drunk, and drug abuser, has a very entertaining book called Digging Up Mother. There’s no way he remembers all this stuff, and he admits it. But in the audiobook versions, he adds meta-asides that indicate when a name is fake, for example, or add a story that contextualizes something, or he’ll straight up say “I’m tired, so-and-so is taking over” and let someone else read, making it a much more authentic experience of how an “autobiography” comes together.
