I love taxing the rich. I love everyone getting food and healthcare

Are you perhaps confusing the US with another country? I thought you were listing things you like about the DNC? Because those things don’t exist in the US. If we’re listing stuff we just like, I like a million dollars and high speed rail, but the DNC hasn’t given me either.

I don’t give a fuck if either of them get elected again, and anyone who thinks NY is sending a Republican to the senate is dumb as hell.

The literal title of this post: vote for people who want to help

Left my home to fly across the country with no backup plan and a few hundred bucks to my name. We’re married and have been together since.

Rewording a description of what an LLM is and saying brains are just like that is still saying that brains work like LLMs, even if you didn’t use those exact words. The acknowledgment that neurologists do not find evidence to support that is pretty much all that is necessary to tear that down, no matter how many times you repeat it.

Let me know when you find a neurologist that says brains are just like LLMs.

I’m currently working on a degree in a moderately research/writing heavy major, and I don’t use it at all. The things I’m researching are too niche, I don’t want my writing edited to be less interesting, and school policy prohibits it for anything but brainstorming ideas. Which, I already know what I’m interested in, I don’t need it to tell me that even if it could.

I have straight A’s and no intention of changing how I (don’t) use AI.

Okay, but like… that’s all we are too.

Whoever told you that was lying to you or misinformed. Neuroscientists do not look at the brain as a probabilistic prediction tool. You are not a database with weights, you’re a human being with experiences, emotions, and thoughts.

In December, the California legislature by a wide margin passed a bill that would have banned Pfas in cookware and other everyday products, but Newsom vetoed it after receiving pressure from the cookware industry and celebrity chefs. He has so far not said anything about the pesticide legislation.

Reminder that Gavin Newsom is shit and you don’t want him as the next Democratic presidential candidate.

It’s depressing to me that one of the top upvoted comments here is ‘there’s no way a deaf blind person could have been literate.’

You’re absolutely correct that her legacy has been used as inspiration porn, but that doesn’t reflect on her intellectual abilities at all, just what stories society and the powerful want us to hear. Even during her own life Keller experienced exactly that once she became a socialist, and suddenly all the newspapers and people who went on at length about how capable she was suddenly believed her unable to reason because she was blind and deaf. Keller herself even spoke out against using her story as a way to tell people that anyone can do anything, and specifically that the poor didn’t have the opportunities she had.
