@OliverBCushing Folks, you need to realize that ChatGPT & other LLMs are really good at things like diagnostics & pulling datasets.
Attorney's are good at memorizing case law & have expensive sets of law books.
Congrats -attorney's will be obsolete soon, unless they convince you of their worth.
@japan_nobunaga Took my gf to the gun range for Valentine's Day with a Groupon coupon. We both had a great time and she finally understood the equalizing power that a gun offers to the weak.
@moultano "Is impeachment the only practical check on the executive?"
Not only is it not, it's the hardest. Congress can simply withhold funding and starve any arm of the government it wishes to atrophy.
@politicalmath The discourse wasn't "no one died because of DOGE",
the discourse was "DOGE is killing people".
One is passive and one is active.
"it's actually fine people died from DOGE."
Again, moving the accusation to the active; "from DOGE" becomes the killer, and not like "from AIDS".
@reddit_lies Unpaid Mods
Publicly Traded & utilizing unpaid labor
Publicly Traded & up to 50% of all traffic is likely to be bots.
Defrauding investors, defrauding advertisers, defrauding users.
@politicalmath "feels like it is coming from an entirely different reality"
Consider that the work they're asked to do is "make the lives of Americans a living nightmare while causing irreparable to harm to every piece of American society".
Pretty hard sell to an American.
@sunnyright "Reputable source" is a newspaper that prints retractions. LLMs don't care how often, or set a level, that retractions have to be published. As long as it's done occasionally, they consider the source "reputable".
So, lie as often as you like, but every few months retract them
@dantypo "I thought, how would this have gone down in an office of women"
You should have stopped at "DE-VOURED". That was interesting, this is as interesting as a Berkely feminist always pontificating on men.
@SteveKerins "I don't even know why I'm in this party."
You should go ahead and check out early, friend. You're not IN the party, you're simply the wait staff.
@kylecordes@ishaantharoor "a foolish government creates a program without properly considering how much incentives matter"
Since there are no fools in our government, this was a purposeful misuse of public funds. Help is assistance.
You can't walk, I assist you, I don't become a permanent crutch.
@kylecordes@ishaantharoor Oh, so all these governments could have done it themselves, but USAID was handicapping them from being self-sufficient. Good info.
@kylecordes@ishaantharoor "so that other countries could step up and take over any programs they felt were sufficiently important in an orderly fashion"
Everyone was just standing back watching the U.S. pump away on chests and crying "don't die on me, man", but they were totally ready to jump in.
@ishaantharoor "USAID stood up a significant segment of the international humanitarian system"
Define significant segment.
Define international humanitarian system.
"the real harm the full dismantling would cause"
Define harm.
So that everyone knows exactly for what you're arguing.
@EWess92 While they reside on the same side of the spectrum, they have arrived there from different motives. Of course Roberts must try to contain Thomas, should Thomas' radical self-deterministic philosophy catch fire, the powers that captured institutional control might lose it.
@StatisticUrban It's not weird, he's an institutionalist at heart. He is deathly afraid of harming the abilities of the ruling class to exploit the working class.
