@jeremyphoward Been talking this over with friends. Some awkward stuff in the details, and I spotted it too, but overall I wouldn't bet against Carreyrou. It's completely wrong to think this was a drive by. He's thorough and careful.
"“Gas Town is an industrialized coding factory manned by superintelligent chimpanzees, and when they feel like it, they can wreck your shit in an instant.”
Two kinds of social solidarity: universal solidarity (respect for every individual's human rights, the basis of mutual care and civil society) and ethnic solidarity (dissolution of the individual, along with their rights, into a non-human amalgam).
Forgot to give the verdict. So impressive, so exasperating, so typical. It "works." Takes any csv, has clear instructions for domain customization, and suite of common analytical maneuvers and design knobs. And that was... 11 hours later.

Chat GPT sounding a like human high school math tutor this afternoon, finals week must be getting to it: "You can't ask, "What angle has a sine of 2?" — that's nonsense."

@realwxforecast Thank you for these. Watching closely. Looks like winds still from NNE and no evacuation anywhere in the valley. Post more if you see any changes.
@alexeyguzey I'm bothered that we aren't compelled to believe the paper by negating either proposition. Maybe a hint that standard practice doesn't get us quite as far as we'd like.
