hallole··on The Grammar According to West
"Given"?

I don't know SQL, but going solely off Google Images, that'd read like:

SELECT X GIVEN X > 5

hallole··on Pig lung transplanted into a human
That alone is insane, incredible. Hardly measures up to the ideal of leaving the hospital, good as new, but putting that aside: 18 days on a transplant, trans-species organ? I'm in awe!
hallole··on University of Cambridge Cognitive Ability Test
"Notable is that these are either population metrics or compare each individual with themselves."

Yes, for the purposes of that research. Why would a comparison between two people be a flawed use case? Do you just mean the colloquial use and understanding of IQ is flawed?

hallole··on JPMorgan, Walmart using internal gen AI assts after initially restricting usage
Restricted use to emails and reports? I have only ever sent an AI auto-generated email response on accident. They're just never useful, nor could they be without accessing my mind.

And reports?? God I'd be so pissed if I had to wade through the fluffy, customer service-esque language of an LLM-authored report.

hallole··on AI is ummasking ICE officers. Can Washington do anything about it?
Agree completely. The parties here really couldn't be farther from consensus, so the sloppy, frantic policy decisions will probably continue. My knowledge of political history doesn't go far back, but it feels like a new thing for every presidential term to start off with a wave of retractions of the last guy's decisions.

Illegal immigration is far from an imaginary problem. Any immigration at all will affect the availability of homes, of jobs, of healthcare... So, it ought to be monitored and controlled. This is becoming more relevant as home prices rise and the job market stays sucking.

I don't even think ripping the Constitution up would render the problem "solved." It would really help relieve the panic if the parties could at least agree that the issue does exist; until then, any government plan can expect to be overturned in four years time.

To clarify: not defending literally A.H., I think that's a mischaracterization.

I think it's an understandable overshoot to confront what some might see as a long-standing, festering problem. This isn't an endorsement, but the frantic attitude makes sense: rush and get the job done, there's only one 4-year-term in which to do it.
