I haven't had anything to add re: Cornell, because I don't think anyone wants to use this space to reckon with the fact that none of these systems are meant to help you, unless you are a university seeking to minimize your legal exposure. It's not fair to ask strangers to reckon with that here.

Who shot the Alabama kid? Gunshow cock robin yields to lore. That’s not enough anymore. Chicago on the horizon. Invasions are everywhere. The mesquite trees are winning. It is time of year when the weather can’t settle – right before the assault of the histamines – painted by Nicolas Poussin. Something to look forward to at the bus stop or in the graveyard. I am told we are winning the war.

"A physical book is a delivery mechanism for information," it continues.
"Once that information has been extracted and encoded into an Al model, the delivery mechanism has served its purpose. What remains is paper, ink, and binding material. The book is not destroyed. Its value has migrated.
The paper returns to the material cycle; the knowledge enters the intellectual one."

The reason why Lindsey Graham is "dead" and Mitch McConnell is "alive" is because South Carolina has a Republican Governor and Kentucky has a Democratic one.

There's a surprisingly effective Republican playbook that's hard to unsee once you see it: 1) Enshittify a government service. Add red tape, means-testing, etc. to make it slower, costlier, more annoying for participants. 2) Use its shittiness to justify gutting or privatizing the service.
