lmao, that’s harsh!

well I mean are they drinking less than they used to do, or are they drinking less than the average person? (sorry, I know I could just read the article myself, putting kids to bed)

edit: they’re drinking less than they themselves used to do

let’s keep workshopping that, but yes they are authoritarian assholes and they need to go down.

that additional context is super interesting, but it doesn’t take away from the fundamental reality which is that when someone opens up to you about suicidal ideation, it’s not acceptable to merely do your best to dissuade them; it’s critical to get them to help they need, and there’s just no way for a LLM to do that.

this individual is an outlier in that his personal outcome was spectacularly bad, but his story seems familiar to me. I know a lot of people who seem to feel like they’re building real relationships with these bots.

I migrated to fish recently and at first I was really annoyed that I had to decompose my ~/.bash_aliases into 67 different script files inside ~/.config/fish/functions/, but (a) I was really impressed with the tools that fish gave me to quickly craft those script files (-

~> function serg
    sed -i -e "s/$1/$2/g" $(rg -l "$1")
end
~> funcsave serg
funcsave: wrote ~/.config/fish/functions/serg.fish

) - and (b) I realized it was something I ought to have done a while ago anyway.

Anyway, all this to say that fish ships with a lot of cool, sensible & interesting features, and one of those features is a built-in place for where your user scripts should live. (Mine is a symlink to ~/Dropbox/config/fish_functions so that I don’t need to migrate them across computers).

ding ding ding

he produces content?

thank

this is just a “planned” bill right now, so hopefully they’ll get to that.

oh geez, thanks for the correction there

there’s video, no one was doing anything to him. he got out of his SUV, started yelling at people, returned to the vehicle, got back out with the weapon at his side. self defense would have been (a) for literally anyone to have threatened him and (b) for him to simply leave the scene.

Stop it

Journalists do that to indicate that a term is quoted from a source’s word choice; it’s not for emphasis.

It’s a Rachel and Tobias situation!

He is, though, because the real protection is in herd immunity, not just your individual children being vaccinated themselves.

Yeah that’s what I mean; this is a bit edgier than I’d expect out of him these days. To be fair people often tend to become less piracy-enthusiastic once they publish their own books!

He’s gotten a bit less edgy over the years. Mostly in good ways.

I’m curious what’s the financial outcome here for the customers? I don’t remember what Humane’s price model for these pins was, and none of these articles are discussing it. For example… Eh I’ll just look it up.

Oh my god it was $500-$700 up front plus a $25 monthly fee. That’s just horrible; will the customers be getting refunds? [Looks it up] Nope.

You’re welcome to hold that opinion but you can’t claim it’s supported by history; we’ve had political parties die and be replaced plenty of times before.

Thank you!
