Better than what? Falling for an AI image--the authenticity of which really didn't impact the point being made?

Seriously, you are missing the point.
Republicans literally let Trump take a wrecking ball to the White House. That's all you need to know about that party.
Another guard rail has failed and is marching us closer to civil war.
I'd rather be a Marxist than a Chip Roy.
I am now thoroughly convinced that MAGA just can't wrap their tiny minds around the concept of peaceful protest.
She’s one of the people who keep supporting Trump.
Friendly reminder: don’t put production resources in us-east-1

Will stupid NFL catch rules strike again?
I’m still trying to figure out what watching college football has to do with anything.
Here's the thing that drives me bonkers about using Claude.

I get a project going, Claude understands what's going on.

Been working on the project for some time.

Then...

It tells me the conversation is too long and I need to start over.
That explains why Johnson is protecting pedophiles.
Sam Altman has no such desire.

He's just another tech bro trying to make money without any concern for the societal impact of his work.
