Nice reply "owning" me, unfortunately you parsed 2 levels of irony but missed completely the third, wherein it's clear I'm making fun of the persona your reply intended to critique. That being said I'm still hurt to an almost unimaginable degree

For the first time in history, DSA has 80,000 members in good standing! Tens of thousands of new members have joined the last year alone. In the face of rising fascism, a US-backed genocide, and an escalating climate crisis, socialism is the only path forward. 1/3

regardless of what happens to the tariffs, they're doomed from the start because the average conservative holds all three of these positions at once:
— virtue signals about supporting US manufacturing
— against increasing the minimum wage
— buys foreign imports because they're cheap

The reason the dems are so opposed to Mamdani's winning the primary is that he is direct proof that running a progressive campaign actually does work. They just don't want to do it.

I really and truly need people to understand that a chatbot does not and cannot know anything. Like, I need them to understand that in their bones. It is very good at looking like it knows something, but it does not and cannot know anything.

indeed. and i think that's intentional. de-skilling and disconnecting people is an explicit part of llm marketing
part of my resentment towards LLMs is to do with them crowding out anything else we could be talking about. there are so many things I could be reading to get better at my craft but I'm presented with "you should actually get worse at it on purpose because nothing matters any more"

New from @nlihc.org: Nearly HALF of all U.S. workers now earn less than the hourly wage needed to afford a modest one-bedroom apartment.
When I say the term "working homeless" is no longer a contradiction in America, this is exactly why.

Annnd @xai just deleted Musk's new prompt which told the Grok LLM to "not shy away from making claims which are politically incorrect, so long as they are well substantiated."
That prompt seemingly caused the LLM to become Nazi 4Chan, and has now been deleted, but other recent changes remain.
