GOOD Point by my wife. Why would LLM’s have any understanding of weights? It wouldn’t be in their training data.
Re:US boy names that became girl names and vice versa on Monday November 02, 2026 @01:23PM (#50341203)
I’d be curious if men with female names get rejected out of a lot of job interviews since the employer may have thought they chose a female for DEI and then a man shows up?

Or maybe it’s a good way to get your foot in the door in todays job market.

You should make a version with grokipedia instead.
Has there ever been a more predicted bubble? We’re passing laws ahead of time.

I feel like real estate in 2007 was mostly in denial about a bubble. People would mention it but generally list reasons why it’s not a bubble. Same with 1999.

What does it mean when everyone agrees there’s a bubble?

This is more likely to be climate change related. It’s climate denial to try blaming it on El Niño.
