Re:Everyone in Seattle hates AI on Wednesday December 03, 2025 @03:02PM (#46139284)
textbook way to NOT rollout AI for your org. AI has genuine benefits to white collar workers, but they are not trained for the use-cases that would actually benefit them, nor are they trained in what the tech is actually good at. they are being punished for using the tools poorly (with no guidance on how to use them "good"), and when they use the tools well, they fear being laid off once an SOP for their AI workflows are written.
So the simple answer here seems to be removing our focus from satisfying property owners, no? It's okay to abandon a system when it no longer works for the community. Constituents having to move to capture the improvement in pricing is not the ideal outcome, the ideal outcome is protecting constituents and meeting them where they are. In the worst case scenario, constituents might end up homeless rather than stable in another district where prices are lower, whereas land owners might see the line on a chart go down if the value of their real estate drops. I am much more inclined to help the constituents...
Probably a combination of people not having the money to do so right now and the fact that a lot of people would kill to get their hands on some of the stuff in that museum. not sure how much of it was successfully auctioned off but that's just a guess.

are you an idiot? its not a "lack of socialized everything that started in 2012". Things have never been socialized in America and as wealth is hoarded more and more by the 1%, plus the effects of the 2008 recession, the economic situation for most Americans is becoming cut throat with a lack of socialized resources. As a result, parents struggle, which makes their kids struggle. Kids have little freedom nowadays because of how suburban + capitalist America has evolved to kill communities.

I only avoided suicide because of social media. I had no way to hang out with friends because my parents were always too busy working to take me places so I talked with my online friends to numb the pain.

you're ignorant or extremely privileged if you think kids dont worry. have you ever had a parent be ill and your family has no money for their treatment?
Re:The Teen Mental Illness Epidemic Began Around 2012 on Wednesday February 08, 2023 @01:43PM (#34712707)
I agree wholeheartedly. I was working a part time job in highschool to pay for my gas and other expenses, when I should have been doing kid things. Also as an early teenager I turned to online communities because there was no other way to interact with irl friends outside of school. It was too dangerous to ride a bike to a friends house (cars), I couldn't drive, and my parents were always working so they couldn't give me rides. I still needed some sort of social interaction though, so of course I turned to the internet.

went to go check out their youtube channel cus i really wanted to learn more about Mariam and she doesn't even appear in the videos, its all her dad lol
Highly agree. Why would you want to just keep up the cycle of poverty? Especially the fact that this guy is 66 and had kids with a Vietnamese woman who is most definitely 40 years younger than him. I see it all too often where white men take advantage of south east Asian women and live comfortably by keeping others in poverty.
