it's a combo of trolling and attention seeking. "there's no such thing as bad press" and all that.
we should point it out, condemn it, but not engage in arguments with them about what is and isn't a sig heil.
and when they pop up in other places trying to talk about other stuff, just bring up the fact that they threw a Nazi salute from time to time.
the most important thing is to focus on their evil policies and actions. but we can't forget their performative evil.
if this is machine learning and neural networks, I can believe it's a good thing, maybe even meaningful for the potential of so called artificial intelligence.
if this is an LLM that's alleged to have popped this "virus tail" theory out of... what exactly...? I'm not buying it.
this is a rift between MAGA and Ukraine.
or they could say between the US government and Ukraine.
I still support Ukraine and most Harris voters and many traditional Republicans (Eisenhower type) do, too.
I hope that the Biden admin did a good job of building them up and building Europe up to last through 2-4 years of a potential MAGA administration. Even if they were confident it wouldn't happen. Hope for the best and prepare for the worst and all that.
I'm really hoping that Churchill's quote about Americans doing the right thing is evergreen, because this first month (!!!!) of Trump has been A LOT.
I feel like we're really close to having tried every alternative by now, right?...right?
yeah the sticker's value is ruined now that the back is covered in shit
I think the quick recourse is to find a new job and quit with no notice and no orderly handover once secured.
The longer term recourse involves lawyers but might end up with the OOP owning the company or at least getting a huge settlement.
the... remarkable... thing about this is the Trump administration probably thinks they're winning this.
I just don't even know how I'd react if he successfully cut the defense budget in half. Would i have to join MAGA at that point?
Because... yeah, I hate everything he's done or let others do so far. His Cabinet is/ will be a nightmare. I assume this defense cut would come with more egregious tax cuts for the billionaire class.
But cutting that much from our stupid war budget ... man that's such a nice thing to get...
the first like 10 years of payments is mostly against the amortized interest, so in the first 2 years the principal owed barely moves down.
every example of "monkey considering monkey stranger" was "bad monkey." That is the forest of this article: we're good monkeys to monkey friends and bad monkeys to monkey strangers.
but that's not the case at all, because we have monkey traditions and monkey manners and monkey mores.
again I agree that we don't think of people outside our 150-200 person capacity in the same way as those we know well. we don't give them the level of consideration we should. we don't live up to the golden rule all the time.
but EVERY example in the article was monkey stranger --> bad monkey.
"unnamed source" "unnamed Democrat"
Why don't these people grow a pair of tits and put their name to their quotes? They're complaining that the Dem leadership isn't being brave and fighting, yet they can't be brave and put their name to critiquing the leaders...? Figure it out.
aren't so-called AIs really just a computer version of the infinite monkey/ typewriter thought experiment?
