Come on, no one is this dumb. The senators knew they'd do this from the moment they voted to confirm. This is just premeditated political backtracking to fix as much damage as they can now that they've received their reciprocal favors.
I agree with you about what the real issue is. That said, this kind of article is important. Remember that MAGA can't empathize with someone unless they identify with that person. To MAGA, the struggles of immigrants are unimportant so focusing on them is targeting the wrong audience if we want to change minds. Highlighting the struggles of people MAGA can identify with might actually be able to change some minds.
I used fakespot a lot. It used huristics to attempt to determine how authentic a product's reviews are. It analyzed the reviews for things like repeated phrases, odd review activity like bragading, and other things. It then gave a letter grade to the veracity of the reviews and an "adjusted" aggregate review score after removing any reviews that it considered to be suspicious.
I'm going to miss fakespot. I don't know how accurate it was but it definitely informed my decisions.
What's stopping us from using similar techniques in hot climates now? Why aren't we building similar structures as homes in Phoenix instead of the standard suburban homes?
I'm not in any way defending this. This is going to get people killed, including people who are here with legal status. Likely even citizens.
They don't appear to be accepting just anyone off the street, though. The order talks about deputizing existing law enforcement officers as ICE agents.
So, we're going to have even more poorly trained ICE officers rounding people up to be sent to concentration camps. People who have no idea how to validate documents. People who don't understand the different types of legal statuses. People who want nothing more than to round up anyone with brown skin, regardless of their status. People who know that due process is dead because we can't afford five million trials.
Ignoring what anyone thinks of undocumented immigrants, people with legal status are going to get caught in this. Some of them are going to go to camps. Some of them are going to be deported. Some of them are going to die. There will be more and more "mistakes" with no attempt at remediation.
I have no doubt that even citizens are going to die as a consequence of this.
I got back in touch with a friend of mine who who graduated in the same class as me with a B.S. in Physics. When they learned that I'm an atmospheric scientist, their first question was "What's the deal with Chem trails?"
Point being, conspiracy theories also infect the educated sometimes.
How about if we just act in the oligarchy's best interests? I bet a war between India and Pakistan would increase weapons sales and they might even want Starlink! Good for everyone who matters!
Of course they are! They've engineered their appliances to get the energy star label. If that label disappears they lose their investment because that label will no longer be there to quickly distinguish the efficient products.
I think the disagreement here is semantics around the meaning of the word "lie". The word "lie" commonly has an element of intent behind it. An LLM can't be said to have intent. It isn't conscious and, therefor, cannot have intent. The developers may have intent and may have adjusted the LLM to output false information on certain topics, but the LLM isn't making any decision and has no intent.
Onky if the price is higher due to regulations on child labor and non-toxic materials and manufacturing processes. Oh, wait, they want to roll all of that back to the 50s, too!
I wonder if there is animosity between Trump and Huckabee Sanders. Maybe this is retribution for some slight? She did go more than 90 days without doing a press briefing before she stepped down as press secretary.
