This goes higher on the chain than Putin


Humans caused ALL of this!
A handful of humans with deep roots in the financial sector and the government contracting space.
AI popping won’t change this. These losers will still be in charge in every way that matters.


Does this mean we will finally stop seeing people post “Release The Epstein Files”? Or is that still too hot a meme to drop?


I wonder who spends more time behind bars? Russell Brand or Greta Thunberg?


AI is more likely to generate code that’s hard to follow and therefore harder to check.
Sure. It’s making the errors faster and at a far higher volume than any team of humans could do in twice the time. The technology behind inference is literally an iterative process of turning gibberish into something that resembles human text. So its sort of a speed run from baby babble into college level software design by trial, evaluation, and correction over and over and over again.
But because the baseline comparison code is, itself, full of errors, the estimation you get at the end of the process is going to be scattering errant semicolons (and far more esoteric coding errors) through the body of the program at a frequency equivalent to humans making similar errors over a much longer timeline.


Kinda. It’s a novel technology and one that hasn’t been well analyzed or exhaustively tested.


A computer is a machine that makes human errors at the speed of electricity.
Epstein was a major bundler and influencer in the liberal establishment, specifically within the US East Coast and the EU West Coast regions. Chompsky was also in this circle of influential political and media figures. Its not crazy that they’d run into each other any more than Epstein hobnobbing with any other Ivy League professors or national media figures or British Royals.
did the book sales for manufacturing consent get him that fucking rich?
More that knowing a guy like Epstein is what gets you regularly syndicated in news columns and invited as a guest onto TV shows. You could say the same about Larry Summers or Steven Pinker.
The two guys calling you a “Tankie” in the comments.


What if Five Eyes was Russian?
yes the lemonade is wonderful (it’s bitter). Yes Aunt Martha’s cat is adorable.
90% of dealing with family while doing tech support is dealing with family.
Somehow, in the middle of doing whatever I’ve been asked over to do, I’m juggling a book of old family photos and three plates of snacks and every animal in the house and my mom is still upset with me because I’m not giving her enough attention.


Also not to be that guy, but is this really such a massive concern that the government needs to focus on right now?
Labour is flailing. They came into office with an enormous popular mandate to undo the corrupt and abusive practices of the Conservative government, then proceeded to extend and cement these same unpopular policies while engaging in all the same corrupt practices - in many cases taking money and gifts from the exact same people.
This is what they’ve got. Haphazardly pandering to any special interest group that won’t step on the toes of a mega-donor or trip over graft being committed by another influential MP.
Seems like they are more concerned about handling lobsters than their own citizens after they labeled Palestine Action a terrorist group and had anyone supporting them arrested and charged as such.
AIPAC fully has its hooks into the Labour government, especially at the leadership level. In many ways, the sanction on boiled lobster and the sanction on Palestine Rights activists is coming from the same place. A need to crank up policing on everyone everywhere for anything that can justify a government sanction.
The UK police state is metasticizing again.


“Nothing happened today” isn’t a sign of a slow news day, it’s a sign of institutional decay. Literally people unwilling or unable to do their jobs.
Modern hustle culture has it’s own problems, but suggesting we should be applauding a national broadcaster just doing Ferris Beuller’s Day Off? Come on.


Real “nothing to see here, move along” moment


Yeah, anything is possible, that’s the point.
But something actually happened. The point is to clarify it, not to fuzzy it by insisting contrary positions are more likely based on vibes.
dig a bit more to find what its about, don’t just point out to two statements that could be or could bot be self-excluding
Part of clarifying a position means validating it, logically. If we’re running into a logical contradiction, it guides where we look for more information and which sources we find credible.


But because a court says you did something does not mean you did it
shrug
And maybe Timothy McVeigh, Ted Kaczynski, and Osama Bin Laden were all patsies, sure. Anything’s possible.
It also makes perfect sense for them to punish and imprison anyone that might potentially become a threat, political or terrorist.
The Russian state government doesn’t seem shy about arresting and punishing political prisoners for political crimes. At some point, you just have to take things at face value, until you’ve got evidence to the contrary.
If we want to go pedal to the metal on being contrary, we can insist these people weren’t Marxists, they weren’t even arrested, and the whole article is a hoax. But then why engage with the information at all?


The important part here is “allegedly”.
I mean, its not “alleged” once you’re convicted.
I have 0 knowledge of this case, have not read the article, i’m just replying to the logical aspect of the comment.
There’s an impulse to insist nobody in Russia accused of violence would ever actually have done it, right alongside big excited headlines when a car bomb kills a major Russian politician/general or a sabotage mission takes out major components of Russia’s infrastructure.
Logically, someone is engaged in a guerrilla war from behind Russia’s front lines.


Can’t believe an absolute monarch would behave like this


You seem confused
I thought they were about to hand the UK, France, Germany, and Sweden to fascist parties over the next three years
