I’ll admit my local model has given me some insight, but in researching more of something, I find the source it likely spat it out from. Now that’s helpful, but I feel as though my normal search experience wasn’t so polluted with AI written regurgitation of the next result down, I would’ve found the nice primary source. One example was a code block that computes the inertial moment of each rotational axis of a body. You can try searching for sources and compare what it puts out.

If you have more insight into what tools, especially more i can run local that would improve my impression, i would love to hear. However my opinion remains AI has been a net negative on the internet as a whole (spam, bots, scams, etc) thus far, and certainly has not and probably will not live up to the hype that has been forecast by their CEOs.

Also if you can get access to powerautomate or at least generally know how it works, Copilot can only add nodes seemingly in a general order you specify, but does not connect the dataflow between the nodes (the hardest part) whatsoever. Sometimes it will parse the dataflow connections and return what you were searching for (ie a specific formula used in a large dataflow), but not much of which seems necessary for AI to be doing.

Okay explain it to me like I just drank a quarter gallon of moonshine

I would think willfully violating a judge’s constitutional order would be like some kinda of crime, maybe like criminal contempt of court or something… eh I ain’t a lawyer

And as someone who has extensively set up such systems on their home server… yeah it’s a great google home replacement, nothing more. It’s beyond useless on Powerautomate which I use (unwillingly) at my job. Copilot can’t even parse and match items from two lists. Despite my company trying its damn best to encourage “our own” (chatgpt enterprise) AI, nobody i have talked with has found a use.

Ew its a bidet, not an enema dude

Reading this on a toilet without a bidet :(

Please send your prayers

Getting fired for putting slurs on your public facebook = the erosion of due process. Thanks for the hot take

Okay okay, how about a counter that is updated with each user clicking on an ad, and the client can decide what they want to do with that information, totally not a botnet right?

Holy fuck i actually sighed relief

Since journalism! Here is his take quoted directly

[On the failure of libertarian politics]

The decade that followed — the roaring 1920s — was so strong that historians have forgotten the depression that started it. The 1920s were the last decade in American history during which one could be genuinely optimistic about politics. Since 1920, the vast increase in welfare beneficiaries and the extension of the franchise to women — two constituencies that are notoriously tough for libertarians — have rendered the notion of “capitalist democracy” into an oxymoron.

And his ““clarification”” of the obvious misogynism in the original.

It would be absurd to suggest that women’s votes will be taken away or that this would solve the political problems that vex us. While I don’t think any class of people should be disenfranchised, I have little hope that voting will make things better.

Emphasis mine. You’re to telling me, that even in the beginning questioning the notion of womens suffrage isn’t inherently misogynistic. And then follows that up with “nono we shouldn’t disenfranchise, BUT I don’t believe in democracy anyway” for his retort. I would love to live in your alternate reality where you can defend Thiel to begin with… I thought MLs want to eat the rich.

Hell most ‘liberals’ i know don’t even know what political theory matches their alignment. I wholly doubt that 20% polled are completely okay with this court giving up… critique of liberal institutions and representatives is a completely different matter than trying to talk down to people who may not fully understand or comprehend even their own positions, even if well intentioned.

The elder liberals I talk with are not filled in, still obtaining most of their knowledge of events through corporate media. That isn’t their fault, but that won’t keep me from vehemently criticizing, for example, liberal MSNBC and their coverage over say a particular conflict in the middle east. Now when they do coverage of Trump, again i will be noting their passiveness and complicity, even when agreeing with their notions. Those disagreements from a fundamentally human point (say war not generally being a good thing) are usually something liberal individuals completely agree with, but do not have an alternative narrative to fall to once they start taking apart and questioning what they’ve been told, therefore they’re less likely to begin with.

The liberals of our representatives, like Chuck Schumer, have absolutely no excuse to turn their back on their constituents, but they have an interest in ‘business as usual’. We should not hold back in our push to remove such spineless, uncaring, nihilistic representatives as soon as possible. And frankly, if you haven’t at the bare minimum written to your representatives, i don’t want to hear what your idea of a strategy is.

The senate intelligence committee meeting that happened a couple hours ago made me start greying, Tusli Gabard in particular
