thing is in a place with no universal healthcare there is a lot to lose. may be bad for places where healthcare is a right but at least its not going to completely prevent you from getting treatment.

they would not dare go after xitter or tesla. nope. would not dare. or maralago or truth social or whatever.
- Comment on Why are public school teachers so underpaid in the US? 1 day ago:
I want to add that teachers unions often look for other things than pay because the members are actually concerned with the quality of education. So classroom size and classroom equipment or budget.

same.
- Comment on Easy-to-use solar panels are coming, but utilities are trying to delay them 1 day ago:
Where are you getting that no one is verifying the equipment is approved and no it does not need to be the utility provider any more than, as I said, they need to sign of on fridges and stoves.

Yeah seems strange to me it would legally be a brothel. As long as they kept their money seperate it should just be two individuals. I mean if two people where in the trade and lived in different apartments in the same building would it still be considered a brothel?
- Comment on Easy-to-use solar panels are coming, but utilities are trying to delay them 1 day ago:
exactly. So people could put power into the grid now and the laws would allow it with approved equipment that meet the requirements like auto shutoff whichi legally would certainly be a given. Could something else be plugged in that did not have it. sure. but that would be illegal same as doing it before its allowed. I really don’t understand how you do not understand this.
- Comment on Easy-to-use solar panels are coming, but utilities are trying to delay them 1 day ago:
but the edge case you give has nothing to do with feeding back to the grid given it was already pointed out they auto shut off which regulated by whats allowed to be sold because anyone could put a non legal thing that feeds energy into the grid even if they jury rigged it themself.

those and even the charity ones kinda grate on me. We need to do stuff for americans who when young nonchalantly signed off on being willing to kill when told to but fuck other americans.

yeah in europe you eat a bit less food. in the us you just alternate taking your daily medications and skip the occasional surgery. its all kinda the same.
- Comment on Typical US worker has less than $1,000 saved for retirement, report finds 1 day ago:
as people mention its not much and to boot medicare the old persons universal heatlhcare is expensive (global comparison but cheap by us standards) and its costs can suck up what people get easily.

vicitmless crimes are about the individual. So yeah someone prostituting themselves and someone taking them up on it no prob. Running a brothel or being a pimp is sorta different. All the same Im fine with bussinesses that support the same as long as highly regulated. So at the individual level I want light regulation mainly for safety but going up to business I want a lot of regulation not only for safety on all levels but to prevent abuse and it should be taxed more than regular businesses.
- Comment on How Much Do LLMs Hallucinate in Document Q&A Scenarios? A 172-Billion-Token Study Across Temperatures, Context Lengths, and Hardware Platforms [TLDR: 25%] 2 days ago:
see if they don’t at all then they can fall victim to thinking they are better than they are. By using it a bit in something unimportant which you are knowledgable enough about it allows you to see the flaws and it does not take that much time to see them.

oh man. I so want to teach that class.
- Comment on How Much Do LLMs Hallucinate in Document Q&A Scenarios? A 172-Billion-Token Study Across Temperatures, Context Lengths, and Hardware Platforms [TLDR: 25%] 2 days ago:
I have been saying this for awhile. I am sorta hoping we see open source llms that are trained on a curated list of literature. its funny that these came out and it seemed like the makers did not take the long known garbage in - garbage out into account.
- Comment on How Much Do LLMs Hallucinate in Document Q&A Scenarios? A 172-Billion-Token Study Across Temperatures, Context Lengths, and Hardware Platforms [TLDR: 25%] 2 days ago:
This is why I would encourage people to use llms for something not important. like video games or interests. You likely will have enough knowledge around the things to catch the “hallucinations” and hopefully that will give you perspective on their use for more important things.

ugh yeah. the gambling. I mean that one is straight out like. play our game and you will make millions guaranteed. I mean with that voice saying the bank account balance thing. this should be crazy illegal. Im a big victimless crimes person but I have to say I would like advertising for adult things to be limited to adult venues. I don’t think they should allow gambling sites to even be listed in app stores or be indexed by search engines but like if your at a bar or strip club they could have a poster with a QR code.

What scares me is the political and military ads I see every so often. Along with other fud type things. Its nuts and kind of a relief to actually see an ad selling a physical product.
- Comment on Easy-to-use solar panels are coming, but utilities are trying to delay them 2 days ago:
ok I have to believe the guy replying is a shil at this point. Use of approved products is as old as the electric stystem. Its why the electric company does not have to come and inspect everything you have plugged into the grid and does not come out every time you get a new appliance. The standards are with the product as you correctly point out and the state does not allow on compliant products to be sold just like with refrigerators.
- Comment on 18-26 year olds, How do you plan to dodge the draft? 2 days ago:
I mean we are talking about an administration that things tarriffs are great and constantly swaps them around and also that sending paramilitary into cities is great. trying to get rid of abortion and straight up suggesting woman should not vote.

really should have used an alt for this one but I guess some folks might think your serious.
- Comment on Team turns DNA into a rewritable hard drive 3 days ago:
I think about how the body has all sorts of error correction preciesly because dna is vulnerable to being broken. Then though I think about how this is in a warm, growing, and constantly reproducing body and I figure it likely can be more stable in an artificial environment especially if protected from radiation.
- Comment on Microsoft patents system for AI helpers to finish games for you 3 days ago:
honestly I hated both of them. actually one thing my wife and I talked about the game in terms of graphics was how it trigger both of our aggrophobias. Whats funny is hers is worse in real life but im easier effected virtually. All the ledge areas made me nervous as heck.
