It’s not pointless. If we all complain when conservatives flush the rules down the toilet and kick open Pandora’s box, then do nothing when liberals lick their corporate donors’ toes while fretting over the propriety of the tiniest changes, then the Overton window keeps moving right and we’re all fucked.

DAMNED LIBRULS

For not taking action when they had the majorities.

Seems like a fair criticism.

I opened the article thinking that, surely, the painting had been sold for cheap and gone through several hands before ending up above this person’s couch.

But no, the house actually belongs to the daughters of the Nazi officer who supposedly fled with it.

“Remember that time we didn’t say Roger? Roger.”

“Nah. Roger.”

“Me neither. Roger.”

I’m sure Baofengtech makes a version for liberals too, probably in a brown box marked as recyclable.

Vertical integration. Windows underpins Office, and even cloud services.

Xbox though, they’ve already pretty much written its epitaph.

I don’t necessarily disagree with anything you just said, but none of that suggests that the LLM was “manipulated into this outcome by the engineers”.

Two models disagreeing does not mean that the disagreement was a deliberate manipulation.

It’s not even manipulated to that outcome. It has a large training corpus and I’m sure some of that corpus includes stories of people who lied, cheated, threatened etc under stress. So when it’s subjected to the same conditions it produces the statistically likely output, that’s all.

The phrase in question has no verb.

No dialogue is ever static; every conversation offers an opportunity to reassess and refine one’s viewpoints in light of new insights. In coming to genuine agreements, we learn not only about others but also about ourselves, gaining awareness of how our internal values align with the broader spectrum of social beliefs.

with price increases a frequent occasion in recent times

Good grief this article was padded for length. Who speaks like that? How hard is it to write “with recent price increases”?

Small steps are how engineering gets done. It’s a rare technology that proves its value overnight.

Anybody can do whatever they want with their Teslas. But, Musk isn’t even a majority shareholder. Far from it, he owns 13% of the company.

Teslas were (and are) breakthrough electric vehicles that have set a high standard for the industry, thanks to the work of many, many thousands of talented engineers and workers. Most of them are not Elon Musk.

For real, go to a library and ask a librarian for help.

They’ll have various books aimed at different levels of maturity and reading levels. Get a book, read it yourself, then ask him to read it and talk about what you learned.

Google Maps right now:

Well. He’s gotten better.

I think he really struggled understanding that he was seen as a leader, and that people were modelling his behavior because he was setting the standard. Once he realized that, his criticisms became more… measured.

Absolutely.

I hate to say it, but the only solution to bullying (and it’s not much of a solution) is to escalate the issue to administrators and parents. Over and over and over again, until the administration realizes that allowing these kids to be near each other is exposing the school to risk.

Sounds like the friend is absolutely “negging” your sister, trying to convince her that she’s defective and can’t expect better treatment.

Of course, you can explain this dynamic to your sister – that her friend is trying to build herself up by convincing your sister that she’s terrible. But sadly many people subjected to such behavior internalize it and are unable to fight it.

haha?
