To me it reads like whoever can solve alignment should make money.

I’m going to second this. Probably a side effect of its training to always produce an output, even if its some naive handling of issues it really should have root caused and fixed.

Such a shame too

The 3 em dash… kinda a flex move in this case.

I saw it live (before all the commentary) and didn’t think it was a nazi salute :/

You can’t legislate morality.

Just yesterday I fixed a broken wireless N64 controller receiver with the help of ChatGPT. I tried looking for YouTube videos, but didn’t find the exact thing I needed, and since I’m such a newbie I needed a lot of hand holding.

Anyways, I took pictures of the components and described what I was seeing. It walked me through things really well and asked me to do tests and report back. It even told me how to use my specific multimeter after I took a picture of it. I ended up soldering a jumper cable from the console power supply line (not working) to the micro usb power line (working).

It actually works now and really saved me 30 bucks buying a new controller.

> As someone whose lost a grant award under the current administration's attack on science, I can tell you with assurance that this is more about political power and revenge than it is about improving scientific rigor.

I'm sorry to hear this, but curious what makes you certain of this? Revenge for what? I ask, because I hear this same template over and over with this administration. eg. DOGE isn't about government efficiency its about revenge.

Do both. Integration hell is inescapable.

I read this to the tune of we didn’t start the fire. Was nice.

In my regular smallish suburban city I have a sidewalk stamped from 1922. However, they just redid all the roads, sewer, and certain side walks (bad sections). They are now running municipal fiber tubes throughout the whole sprawling city. As far as I can tell the city is still operated as a self-financing entity and has been since the 1800’s. Is this a facade or just an anomaly?

I put in my information and I find it really interesting that 2 parents who both work need a combined ~$63 an hour living wage, but a couple where only a single parent working needs only ~$47 an hour. My wife is a stay at home mom and her monetary contribution comes from saving us money (not paying for childcare, not paying for restaurants, etc, etc, etc). Makes me think that in a lot of ways saving money is really tax efficient compared to slogging for more ordinary income.

So like a kind of Application Programming Interface?

Tree tag :p

It’s nice to be able to ask ChatGPT a half baked, poorly researched, poorly worded question with bad grammar yet get a totally good faith response back that’s a springboard for follow up questions. Whereas if you did the same thing on any stack exchange site you get downvotes and comments like “please read the guidelines and edit your question.”

I guess peacetime is kinda a fuzzy thing. The jihad is always on.

Reminds me of the flight traffic controller strike under Reagan. Can the same thing happen here? https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Professional_Air_Traffic_Con...

“You’re what the French call les incompetents.”

(USA here) My mother always would tell us kids to put her in a retirement home as soon as she became a burden to the family. Her favorite children's book was also The Giving Tree so there’s that.

> I want there to be natural consequences for people's actions.

Like bearing a child after choosing unprotected sex?

Weird that you would preface a reasonable perspective with “downvote if you will” then it appears you did get downvoted.

Free will

Tomato tomato. Maybe he thinks his way is funner to say.

Option: NATO joins fight only on Ukrainian soil with no fly zone or whatever. Balls in putins court to move fight outside of Ukraine.

Would make for some pretty cool pop up books.

Very useful list. Thanks for providing.

This is what I read about that event. “In response, people at the protest tackled the man and attacked him. At least 15 people pinned the man against his vehicle to punch, kick and throw things at him. His face was left bloody and his vehicle was looted and flipped, according to 2News reporter Kelly Vaughen“

Spains position relative to Morocco hasn’t moved too much.

What exactly is the definition of astroturfed? If it implies spending lots of money then is there evidence of that here? A few Facebook groups (free) and a few hundred dollars in domain registrations and hosting. Are these protesters being bused to rallies? What would a true grassroots movement look like these days?
