Is this a European post I’m too American to understand? Plenty of people graduate college with tens or even hundreds of thousands of net negative worth. Getting to above 0 from that point is a big accomplishment, and could be considered “on-track” as late as your 30s depending on your income and savings ratio. That being said, I wouldn’t say you should hope to be in America-levels of student debt, so maybe that’s the joke and I’m just slow
My city uses pedestrian aprons at intersections to pile up the snow plowed off of the road. So even when the snow on the path melts, the pile will be there for several additional weeks or even months making it unusable. Very cool
no good reason
We don’t accept states that are actively committing a genocide or that have leaders with active ICC warrants.
Oh you meant good reasons that can be stated by corpo politicians with a phobia of stating facts that may be interpreted as anything close to antizionism. Fair play
So we are cutting off military aid to Israel then, right? Right?
Not saying this is you, but for a very long time, the moderate argument is, “we can’t get a total victory here, so we shouldn’t bother resisting Republicans” and, frankly, I’m done with that line of thinking. If it makes Republicans life harder, it must be done. If they have to explain to their voting base why they aren’t willing to make ICE agents unmask in order to keep TSA staffed at airports, that is worth making them do. I don’t expect a miracle, I expect a spine
Jeffries’ best quality is that the two easiest people to compare him to are Chuck Schumer and Mike Johnson and that, despite his best efforts, even he fails to limbo under those bars on a regular basis
God, there’s so much wrong with the reality behind that headline. Megadonors shouldn’t be a thing. Donors with major business before the government should especially not be megasized because of the conflict of interest. Super PACs shouldn’t exist. The president should not have a Super PAC
I don’t know the specifics for this reported case, and I’m not interested in learning them, but I know part of the controversy with the grok deep fake thing when it first became a big story was that Grok was starting to add risqué elements to prompted pictures even when the prompt didn’t ask for them. But yeah, if users are giving shitty prompts (and I’m sure too many are), they are equally at fault with Grok’s devs/designers who did not put in safeguards to prevent those prompts from being actionable before releasing it to the public
That is what they mean by it, but the fact they chose to express it as “not tolerating discrimination” as opposed to “not discriminating” or “not engaging in discrimination” really highlights that they are engaging in the social contract of tolerance with entities that are explicitly breaking said contract. This kind of weak willed “inclusion” for the sake of virtue signalling/profit is part of what makes fascists think that the paradox of tolerance is some killer argument against empathy
We do not tolerate any form of discrimination apparently means We provide hospitality to the worst perpetrators of discrimination
The real victims of imperialism are the tourism industry and its customers /s
Nintendo’s legal department wants to know your location
Alternative way to phrase it, we don’t train humans to be ego-satiating brown nosers, we train them to be (often poor) judges of character. AI would be just as nice to David Duke as it is to you. Also, “they” is anthropomorphizing LLM AI much more than it deserves, it’s not even a single identity, let alone a set of multiple identities. It is a bundle of hallucinations, loosely tied together by suggestions and patterns taken from stolen data
People are literally murdered IRL for being LGBTQ+. I haven’t seen that be brought up as an argument against having a LGBTQ+ tag on Steam. I think AI users will be OK
The giant AI banner ad inserted in the middle of this article about “unlocking AI” is just chef’s kiss
Trump Derangement Syndrome. It is/was a derogatory term used by MAGAts when sane people expressed concern about putting a pedophile who attempted to violently overturn an election in charge of the government rather than holding him and his enablers accountable

A concerning amount of investor money in the market is riding on the wellbeing of a few big tech companies. And it got that way because the absurd valuations of those companies is built on speculation that AI will change the economy and company X will benefit from that for reason Y. When it becomes clear that either AI will not change the economy or that company X will not benefit greatly from said changes, that valuation will pop and investor assets will lose value. I’d call that a bubble
This letter reads to me like it is someone from the Kansas executive branch (run by Democrat Governor Laura Kelly) legitimately apologizing that they are bound by Republican made, veto-overridden law to cause this inconvenience, but maybe I’m being too generous
