Could the "LLMs can't do anything" crowd and the "LLMs can do everything" crowd go somewhere private to yell at each other so the rest of us can have a normal "this new tech can do things previous tech couldn't but is limited in various ways, let's figure out best uses and regulations" conversation?

I think a lot of online leftists need to internalize that Zohran is a successful socialist is because he's not a hostile dickhead

When an unprincipled influencer of the left starts to see a long term decline in revenue, a conversion to the right is inevitable. Just a general observation, not tied to any particular recent news.

Piker, an idiot who doesn't like Democrats and who most normal people do not know is a litmus test for Democrats. Musk, a virulent racist, the richest man in the world and one of the GOPs top donors is not a litmus test for Republicans. Siiiiiiigh

What Pablo Torre did was ridiculously impressive. Uncovered a conspiracy between rich guys, withstood a propaganda campaign by one of the richest guys in the world with a pretty good reputation, didn't buckle or panic, and just kept reporting. That's some Pulitzerin' right there.

These people had protected status. They lived here legally. They worked, they paid taxes. They made lives. Raised families. Now we’ve dehumanized them. Ripped away that protection and told them to get out. This is a stain on the soul of this Nation.

@historians.org needs to publicly explain this, immediately. For the last two years, the organization has attempted to undemocratically silence and stifle discussion of resolutions on the genocide in Gaza. Consulting law firms to suppress discussion among its own members is grotesque.

Writing, quite literally, is thinking. Hence, it is hard to write well because it requires systematic, disciplined thinking. If you aren't writing for yourself you aren't thinking for yourself.

I’m on vacation but I gotta say, as much fun as it is to debate woke1 and Hasan Piker, the Trump administration is currently engaged in mass murder on the high seas as surely as any serial killer or lynch mob. And viewed from the distance of vacation, The Discourse doesn’t seem to give a shit.

As a DSA member, it's kind of an existential question for the future of the organization: how long are we going to allow the IC campists to control our foreign policy positions? Because it's going to get harder and harder for serious candidates to explain them away and still win elections.

One thing that's gonna happen during the next Dem Presidency is that they'll be forced to pay out a ton of lawsuit settlements for federal misconduct under Trump and rightwing media will call it "an apology tour" and make a big deal out of how much money they're spending.

I suppose this is fine but there is something deeply strange about saying, oh, we don't want people shooting one another in *this* place. This whole country has become hostage to a ludicrous right-wing interpretation of the 2nd amendment & we all just work around it.

Bar guns from Seattle Center? That should be an easy one
There are costs to barring guns from Seattle Center at big events, in both freedom and finances. But it’s still an obvious choice in gun-crazed America.
