Not sure if they person you know is a millennial, but I have noticed of this (my) generation that they love not only gender-ambiguous names, but to name girls with decidedly male-coded names.
A couple of reasons I can think of.
- Reading helps hone your ability to focus your attention on one thing for sustained periods.
- Getting back into the habit of reading by reading "trashy" or otherwise easy books can serve as a stepping stone to reading more difficult or rewarding books. This worked for me when I fell out of the reading habit for a while and was bouncing off books that I wanted to read that were less immediately engaging.
I would also say that while I agree that being alone with your mind is quite healthy and something we would all ideally make time for, I don't think that it's the alternative most people are opting for over reading.
He still has about 75% approval among Republican voters, and just under 50% "strongly" approve.
That puts Republican senators who might want to break with him in a tough position.
It's possible that if the Iran war drags on and things get much worse, that could change, but I don't see it happening overnight.
If the Democrats win they will of course impeach Trump, but he can't be convicted without 2/3 of the Senate, and the Democrats have no chance of attaining that in the Senate. So the only chance of Trump being convicted while in office is if the Republicans turn on him, which I don't see happening without something very dramatic happening, like him attempting (and hopefully failing) to use nuclear weapons against Iran.
The causative arrow could point in the other direction, here. Or both directions at once
Perhaps I am being uncharitable, but I don't see what's interesting about it at all. Visualizing IPv4 against population (or maybe GDP) would have been far more illuminating.
> Race could potentially apply to something like an acting job too but that's a lot more of a dicey subject, like it would need to be absolutely critical to the production that a character is a specific race.
Is this true? I would think that this conflicts with first amendment rights a bit.
So you're advocating for a complete disregard for all laws until Trump is out of office, is that right? Traffic laws, domestic violence laws, regulations around food safety, etc.
Or maybe you mean only federal laws, like laws around human trafficking?
Or is there something specific about immigration law that requires it be voided when the president is a lawbreaker?
I really don't think anyone is taking Trump's misdeeds and poor character into account when making the decision to cross the border illegally or overstay a visa. I'm quite sure they are thinking more about economic opportunities, getting out of a bad situation in their home country, reuniting with family, or other things along those lines.
At the risk of a committing a "No True Scotsman" here... it isn't a properly left wing position. Or at least it hasn't been for most of the history of the left.
I think the forced-chat price history thing is a dirty way of trying to get people used to talking to the chatbot. Can't think of any other reason it would be designed so stupidly
Realree camo has become popular with the "creatives sipping soy lattes" demographic. Although Apple is actually bit behind the curve here, I think it's already become a little passe.
It was the complete lack of fear or urgency on the part of the characters for me.
I'd be surprised if Claude would implement password storage without a salt, tbh (assuming a recent model). If he doesn't know the implementation details I'd say it's more than likely that it is actually salting the hashes.
I wonder if anyone's tested the reverse, whether Claude/GPT models produce worse code for an ostensible Chinese or Russian government agency or contractor.
Zuckerberg's Hawaiian demesne has a fully underground bunker complete with medical clinic. I know several people who worked on it (and disregarded their NDAs entirely, impossible to prevent people in Hawaii from talking story)
In order to really do the math here, you'd have to determine whether such drugs are as likely to be created under non-capitalist regimes. In other words, even if capitalism has less-than-ideal mechanisms for distributing lifesaving drugs widely (during their patent period at least), maybe it is better at creating lifesaving drugs in the first place. It's possible that the net result of the capitalist pharmaceutical industry is millions of lives saved. Without taking that account, you can't do a real cost-benefit analysis.
Of course, it's probably not really possible to do such a comparison, because there are so many other factors, and state intervention is everywhere even in capitalist countries, via publicly funded research.
I think the only really fair way to compare which system causes more deaths than the other is to look at overall health outcomes and lifespans.
I thought it sounded a little stilted and weird and then I realized that was the human half of the conversation.
The conversation with the AI fake wife was a little creepy, albeit honest about what this tech is probably going to be used for.
Based on my search attempts for specific works or artists by name, it seems that it's not using the catalog text.
Yes, it would probably benefit from a hybrid search with RRF.
The comma after "hear" reads as non-LLM to me
A day of press is probably better than no press at all, if you're the CEO of a publicly traded company
Your own reading comprehension needs work. The commenter I was describing is clearly writing from their own perspective, and uses the word "they" to describe Ukrainians
> We did lose manufacturing jobs, but not because we "sold" them, it's because productivity has increased so much.
It's because of both.
Mature economies would do well to hold onto some basic manufacturing capacity as a matter of national security. Or at the very least, retain some of that capacity within the sphere of close and trusted allies, assuming allies of that type can even be maintained by the US at this point.
It's for the resumes of the people "writing" them
I'm a millennial and I feel like nearly all the discourse about who is (generationally) responsible for society's problems is aimed at the boomers. And the zoomers to a lesser extent, though that seems more of a prophecy about how they're going to ruin society. Jabs aimed at us millennials tend to be that we're cringe (or boring), which I can accept.
Amazing that you're being downvoted for this. The comment you are responding to is insane. Basically "I hope that the Ukrainians continue to suffer and die, but not for a good long-term outcome for themselves, but rather so that I can see Russians suffer." It's close to psychopathy.
Not accusing you (or the imaginary person who returns many things but can't reach a post office, UPS store, etc, since you've made it clear that isn't you) of abuse. But it makes sense that they are doing analysis and banning customers that look like they're abusing the system, regardless of the truth of the matter. If someone is frequently receiving damaged goods and frequently requesting refunds without returns, that will be flagged for fraud.
