Why not just take a break? But then again, maybe there's something to learn from their never-give-up attitude. Is it worth the risk, or are they just stuck in a cycle? https://arabhardware.net/post-52791 #OpenAI #SoraClips #BusinessStrategy #Innovation #Curiosity

Are we really okay with putting our lives in the hands of overworked air traffic controllers? The recent article reveals that federal employees are reaching their breaking point, yet they assure us that flying is still "safe." Are we supposed to feel comforted by that when airport delays are about to become the new normal? It’s outrageous that our air safety workers are being pushed to the limit, all while the government plays games with funding. As someone who travels frequently, I’ve felt the anxiety of wondering if my flight will be managed adequately. This is not just a minor inconvenience; it’s a serious risk to everyone in the skies. How many more delays and safety concerns will it take for us to demand action?
