  • American troops pulled out of Iraq this year, so I imagine anyone stationed there who was involved with the post war (i.e. ISIS) are considered 'Iraq' vets.

  • Kind of. It isn't wrong, but it is a crucial omission that it's interviewing a former EPA enforcement guy (i.e. not current) about current enforcement policy, (which is radically changing under Zeldin.) So the model's interpretation on whether the state will hold to federal pressure becomes imprecise since it's really this guy stating there's actually a lack of federal pressure.

    But it does rightfully note information is not in the article to answer, which is neat.

    Because... for context not directly in the article, technically if EPA defers to the state, then Mississippi saying temporary permit exemption actually applies here satisfies the permit requirement, which Buckheit has to know. (Which directly explains the lack of federal pressure.) Citing the policy in January was a clever non-answer from the EPA. They're actually saying state and federal policies are NOT in conflict.

    Also, I'm not trying to dismiss any of this, more trying to provide an insight that might help with accuracy. I have a bit of knowledge on this specific subject, so I thought I'd note a point where I can measure an inaccuracy.

    These kinda of articles can be really sneaky about claims and statements. Mostly minor and innocuous, but an LLM doesn't know the difference. Like, this caught that Buckheit is talking about what should be happening under previous admins when he was involved, but that's specifically not what the EPA is doing anymore, which the LLM appears to have missed in part. Which to me, that part was the primary purpose of the article.

  • "List the article's concrete claims about permit status and turbine operations, each with support."

    • EPA position: these turbines require permits under the Clean Air Act.

    Not quite though. The article cited EPA's policy as per a former EPA enforcement staffer who was explicitly stating the EPA is not requiring that here and has made rules deferring to the state and local authorities. The guy was saying the EPA should be acting, but isn't. The article was clever with it, but that's all the more reason.

  • What is a good age bracket for this pile of trash I found on my land?

    Jump

  • That's very possible. On second look there are a few materials that seem more set into the ground. However even the plant growth over them still might fit a time period that includes this currenr spring and last spring. (Assuming this isn't Australia or anything.) But it could be a favorite dump site for some slumlord in the area.

    Also, I have seen garbage piles with moss because the landlord had scraped everything out of a property and dumped it into a ravine. Moss and other plants could easily come with the dump too. But it's also on netting material which is great for rapid moss growth. But more than one dump is very plausible.

  • I did solid waste dump responses when I worked for a health department.

    When people who can't pay to dump have trash, they dump it in the woods, ravines, forestry roads, etc.

    Usually the drive to dump trash is when someone dies and someone else is having to clear out their effects, be it family, a landlord, or some worker. Or someone is evicted from their home, vehicle, or encampment.

    Otherwise most people hoard it until they die or are evicted.

  • Two would be pushing it. The leaves would have matted more and built up in greater amounts. Put out last spring is my estimate: that's one year of detritus.

    Assuming this isn't just two feet off the side of a trailhead or something.

  • Democrats throw cold water on shutdown deal, call for more ICE reforms

    Jump

  • They're trying to save ICE for use during a Democratic administration. This is how Senate Democrats are calculating their politics. They're approaching this from the angle that the current admin is ruining ICE.

    Like, they fundamentally support Iran war and regime change, and only oppose that this guy is doing it so badly.

  • I used to work nights until around 2015. Used to game with a lot of eastern europeans. (And American friends in the military deployed across the globe.)

    Two guys I knew, one in Svestopol and the other Kiev both signed off in 2014. I am 90% sure the Kiev guy moved to the UK since they were going there for a degree, but the guy in Svestopol just went radio silent.
