Yeah, one would think that would blow a grand jury ruling. Vandalism, arson… ok.
If it weren’t an external gate and was instead someone’s front door, then maybe, but as it stands, it’s all property damage and attempted murder is a crazy reach…
A fine career as a lawyer awaits you
Still same boat, you are compelled to conform with whatever the actual truth is.
“next week lottery numbers are… impossible for me to know”
“the best thing I can do with my life right now is … something I wish I knew”
The curse can be stubbornly unhelpful no matter what.
I think that would apply to people tricked into reading/watching AI slop video, but I think his definition is a likely one that could apply.
You try to google search, you get an ‘ai overview’. In a bizarre scenario, DuckDuckGo made a big deal of asking the users and showing the users overwhelmingly wanted to skip AI results by default, and duckduckgo still defaults to AI summary unless you take measures to opt out.
An analogy is dificult, but I suppose imagine a subway dropped off someone and there’s no stairs up, only a tunnel for a Tesla to take you to the next stop. You “use” a car, but were given no option to do otherwise because you were stuck underground and they forced you to take the car to carry on.
In either case, his definition certainly is a likely one for a Gen Z respondant to be thinking when they respond “yes they use AI”. On the flip side some probably felt as you do and responded that they did not use AI, because they did not voluntarily do so.

N64 had the challenge that every single game was a circuitboard, so that inflated costs. Nowadays the price is for just the right to download a copy.
Yeah, AAA productions:
Trump didn’t make the leap to directly say to do that, but he did clearly think that strong lights and disinfectant in the body ‘should be looked into’. He was saved from directly making a terrible recommendation by having some amount of deference for the medical organizations, but did try to show ‘thought leadership’ in a very dumb direction.
It was not some sort of Stanford spinning up wild concepts, it was Trump taking very obvious things about how we handle these things outside the body and thinking that we would be the first to ask ‘but what about inside the body?’. Yes, he phrased it as a question to be looked into, but he clearly thought there could be something to it.
About the only credit you can give to first term Trump in this scenario is that he at least ultimately left health issues up to the health departments, even as he groused the whole time.
“Cigarettes can’t hurt you, anything that goes in the lungs you can just blow it back out again”
Nah, President Dwayne Elizondo Mountain Dew Camacho at least wanted the smartest man in the world trying to solve problems for him. This administration wouldn’t let a smart man near anything.
That’s just proof that he’s onto something, Big Cancer is afraid to admit that a cheap cancer cure already exists, obviously.
Getting Deja Vu from George W’s “Fool me once, shame on you, fool me twice . . . . won’t get fooled again”
Of course that was pretty benign compared to this, but always interesting to see the gears turn when they realize the natural flow of their words is very much not what they want to be saying.
You are correct, and the critical number is that sodium is over 3 times as massive as equivalent lithium.
But to keep in perspective, we are talking about an element that’s only about 5-7% of a pack, so theoretically you could maybe get to only 10-15% more massive as a penalty for swapping out lithium. Which is some applications is still unacceptable,but broadly we have seen a lot of accepting that same tradeoff going from NMC to LFP…
Sodium battery performance is better in the cold.
Currently some sodium battery products are out in the market and aren’t appreciably cheaper yet and the answer to ‘why’ was ‘cold weather performance’.
offered his outlandish excuse that he was supposed to be a doctor
It’ll be good enough for his base, who is willing to believe anything to rationalize his behavior.
It was a stunt to try to remind people that he pushed for no taxes on tips, which was a part of both his and Harris’ platforms.
Since inflation is again going up and particularly gas prices are up and he has nearly zero good news, he has to try to milk his tip tax policy as much as he can.
It’s grading on a curve.
Biden/Harris were weak on Israel, barely managing to occasionally wag a finger at them for misbehavior, but continuing to provide some support to Israel. This was bad.
Trump’s admin has been all in on it and has been ride or die for everything Netanyahu wants. This is even worse.
I’m realizing it’s not GenAI itself that I necessarily am bothered by, it’s that it just makes everyone that already annoyed me even worse.
People that flood the internet with low-value clickbait? Well now they can flood even more, even more text, lots of video.
People that see a popular content creator that puts out good stuff and then tries to do a knock off? Now I might see that knock-off for 15 seconds before I realize that the thing is trash.
People that like to tell everyone else how to do their jobs that they themselves have no experience about? Well here’s GenAI to make them claim they can do someone’s job better.
Megalomaniac billionaires with messiah complexes? Well, GenAI makes them think they are gods. Elon’s Grok even just casually drops Elon praise into content for no reason.
Executives that view themselves as “thought leaders” and are dismissive of their employees? Yeah, they are itching to lay off some people.
I’m surprised it takes so long, honestly. I keep seeing a progression of people who think they uniquely figured out how to avoid the pitfalls of GenAI mistakes and then getting hit with the same mistakes everyone gets hit with and having shocked Pikachu face when the LLM does something it “promised” not to do. They will not believe anyone telling them that LLM generating the phrase “I commit to avoiding deleting any data” doesn’t mean it actually committed to anything. Even when that fails, they think the LLM saying “I have made a mistake, and I have learned from it and I won’t allow it to happen again” means something, and shocked again as, surprise, that also doesn’t mean anything.
Of course, just last week someone was asking me if I had tried some GenAI stuff and they had been thinking about trying it. Shockingly some people have managed to avoid it and I guess they have more folks to burn through…
True, but it’s at least a rough indicator, and having intact concrete pricing from back then was a bit challenging, and sears catalog came to me as a very well preserved source of vaguely appropriate pricing.
