/ big success and people are saying they never could have built iPhone without Trump - they want to name it after me, Trump Phone, I said no, iPhone is good, but maybe Trump Phone would be good too - it's the best phone in terms of telephone ever, maybe in history
/ he's retiring soon, I don't know him but everybody tells me he's the smartest - he built iPhone, nobody said iPhone was possible - it's true! - but he did it and maybe Steve Jobs too, now they're the richest - look, in terms of cash, they've got the most cash of anyone, tremendous cash, /
Johnny is - look, we've got tremendous apple, the best apple in history, maybe ever, apple farmers voted for Trump, the apple loves Trump - and everyone is saying, there's not enough apple, the apple is - but apple is the great American product, I had Tim Apple - great guy, good friend of mine, /
some (not all) of the FL orange growing regions have decent soil for avocados, I'm surprised we haven't seen more conversions to avocado farming since those are in very high demand
Even before all that, there were significant demand-side problems - orange juice (what Florida mainly produces, as opposed to oranges for eating) just isn't as popular as it used to be.
as with a lot of AI backlash, it's not so much about AI itself... AI is just exposing and magnifying existing social & structural problems
i'm shocked that someone who still thinks "tRump" is a witty and incisive insult in 2026 might be spreading misinformation and wild speculation
shocked, I tell you
they're having white power happy hour at Chili's? a restaurant full of scary ethnic food with unpronounceable foreign names like "quesadilla"?
isn't this what TGI Fridays is for?
the US federal courts are fundamentally unserious and nobody should rely on them for anything
these "Track AIPAC" cards aren't much better than (((echoes))) and you should find better material
they're not tracking AIPAC. AIPAC is spending money *against* Ossoff. that alone should be enough not to post them tbh.
That's what you've been accurately describing up to this point, so the sudden pivot was jarring.
Aren't you sorta falling into the same trap here? The right isn't awash in conspiracy theories as a calculated strategy to distract the median voter from gas prices. They're awash in conspiracy theories because that's genuinely how they see the world!
because these "Track AIPAC" cards are virtually indistinguishable from (((echoes)))
i know it was a rhetorical question, but it needs to be said outright, and anyone who posts those cards needs to be treated just like if they were using (((echoes)))
if Ted Cruz is nominated for a position where legal and ethical principles will prevent him from interacting with sitting senators for the rest of his life, it may be the quickest 99-0 Supreme Court justice confirmation on record
we have a word for people who prefer Susan Collins over the Democratic nominee:
Republican
we keep giving them buckets of money to buy new ships, and they keep spending it on doomed wunderwaffe projects like LCS and Zumwalt
it seems Navy procurement's sole purpose is to make Army and Air Force procurement look relatively competent by comparison
They basically recreated the Iranian government's structure. There's a democratically elected legislature and president. Above that, there's an unelected Guardian Council that keeps the elected government in line and has nearly unlimited power to veto or mandate actions by the elected government.
the Marines get all the best crayon flavors though
that brisket is so dry it is legally classified as jerky
I'd rather just have the coleslaw
what a ridiculous thing for you to say to the world, because I have pets
at this point the options are basically:
1. build a wall around the tropics and let billions of people die, or
2. prep for the largest mass migration in human history, or
3. figure out geoengineering and overcome public aversion to it
it's been clear we ain't stopping it for years now; we've passed the point where any realistic plan could keep global temperature rise under 2 deg C
climate activists are well-organized, but unfortunately well-organized around ideas whose time has passed.
Rep. Greg "Sir Humphrey Appleby" Stanton
(to be fair, good information about AI capabilities and limitations is hard to get. the AI provider marketing hype is equally unreliable. you're stuck trying to read and interpret actual studies by actual researchers.)
relying on anti-AI sources for reliable information about AI capabilities and limitations is like relying on alternative health sources for reliable information about medical testing and treatment
regardless of your views, the *information* just isn't reliable
components of an LLM-powered classification system are similar
to get a good classification, you might pass data through multiple LLM instances that you've tuned (by tweaking prompts and context) to produce acceptable results as a system, like a doctor running different tests to get a diagnosis
for example, the ANA (antinuclear antibody) blood test for lupus is highly sensitive (>97% of folks with lupus will test positive) but only moderately specific (~30% of folks without lupus will also test positive)
this doesn't mean medical tests are useless! it means you have to use them correctly
sensitivity and specificity in LLM classification tasks is a system design problem
compare to medical tests. many commonly used tests are prone to false negatives (low sensitivity) or false positives (low specificity)
that doesn't describe Talarico though
is "another Fetterman" just short for "a white guy I don't like"?
that's pretty much the only trait shared by Platner, Talarico, and Duncan
