More like 100 km club (to get to the Karman line anyway).
But as that only counts for Bezos, let’s go with your value.

I'd much rather watch NASA's production of Interstellar than Paramount's.

For years, you’ve been toiling away as a software development individual contributor (IC), and now your great work has been rewarded with a promotion to engineering manager. An abbreviated list
Love that they're all numbered '1'. A common HTML mistake for an article about common mistakes.

Oh come on, doesn't your top ten list have 10 number 1 items? Our's seem too, sometimes even more than 10.
I’ve given up trying to be calm. However, I am open to feeling slightly less agitated.
I’m begging you for the benefit of everyone, don’t be STUPID.

The grip artificial intelligence has gained over humanity in 2023 - or at least the increase in conversations about whether it will be a force for revolutionary good or apocalyptic destruction - has led AI to be given the title of "word of the year" by the makers of Collins Dictionary. But...it's not a word...?
It's a slippery slope, dangit! Next they'll be calling "joie de vivre" the English Word of the Year. Or 'FUBAR'. harrumph!

When you get to Atlantis set 45° to the right and continue until you see the valley of the dinosaurs. After that continue straight through all the magma and you will find it on your left.

Microsoft announced today the 'Secure Future Initiative,' pledging to improve the built-in security of its products and platforms to better protect customers against escalating cybersecurity threats. "You made me promises, promises you knew you'd never keep"
I guess "Secure Development Initiative" worked for a while?

I pledge to give $1 billion to charity.
Whew, that took a lot of effort and moral gumption; congratulate me!

The U.S., the U.K., China and 25 other countries have signed a declaration stressing the need to address the potential risks posed by artificial intelligence. So, they promise to keep it a secret for 30 years?
(Like Bletchley Park)
Of course, it's the countries that aren't signing on that we have to worry about (as well as the companies)

Another meaningless document providing salaries for idealistic fools.

Quote: stressing the need to address the potential risks posed by artificial intelligence. The potential risks have been more than enough adressed in several good books and films.
I hope they did the declaration in soft paper, if not the one that uses it to wipe his botty will get even more lust to do the opposite.
