Is deliberately talking someone into suicide 1st degree murder?
Or, felony murder, causing a death via fraud or other crime?

Wherein “LLMs will decimate white‑collar work” is decisively disproved.
An impromptu essay about the generation of “work products” without the required context or intent.

Only some of them will have moved on. Some will retire completely; some will find another employer; some a different career.
So the "rehire" will shift to "hire and train a whole generation of employees, with no experts to teach them."
Could disrupt the whole industry for a decade or so.
It may be temporarily damaged if enough C-execs decide to "save money" by laying off 2/3 of their white collar workforce, have a quarter of yay profits, a quarter of hmm profits, and then a collapse as the lawsuits start rolling in.
And then there'll be a scramble to hire them back.
You didn't ask "will this fix SCOTUS" but "will it help?" It will. I also doubt it'd fix SCOTUS entirely, and agree that impeachment is a stretch.
I don't think "gerrymander the blue districts" will fix all our problems, just that it's one of the few tools still available for fixing some of them.
You can ignore 27%; that falls under the Crazification Factor of people whose opinions are not swayed by petty irrelevancies like "facts" or "evidence."

Yes - because the House can impeach federal judges, including SCOTUS judges.
And while a majority-R Senate is not likely to convict, judges might step down rather than having their record dragged into public view. Especially if it might open the way for lawsuits or criminal charges.
Democrats win with a level playing field. They don't win if the Republicans get to tilt it to meet their interests, and Democrats don't get to tilt it back.
There's no way to make this level without support from SCOTUS. And this SCOTUS is not, apparently, interested in equitable representation.
There's an easy solution: A bipartisan federal law requiring fair districting with oversight from a neutral (nonpartisan/bipartisan) team.
…The Republicans won't go for it; they'd lose too many of their advantages. They don't want districts that accurately represent the state's population.
Elon Musk is now worth $845 billion.
Tesla reported paying ZERO federal income tax on $5.7 billion of U.S. income in 2025.
Meanwhile, nearly a quarter of Americans are living paycheck to paycheck and household debt has risen to a record high.
See the problem here?

Today, Gemini tried to tell me the nearest stationary store was 804 miles away. I'm sure it'll be just fine directing air traffic control over Washington DC. Just fine.
thank you!
I had seen this when my father died, and fortunately, most of it was not relevant to us - he lived with us, and had never had an email in his life, but the note about "get 10 death certificates" was amazingly useful.
And the general tone of "yes, this sucks, sorry" really helped.
In the category of "every accusation is a confession," what we can take from this is: There is a set of documents that could bring down the entire MAGA regime overnight.
(Not necessarily the complete Epstein files, but it's possible.)
I generally call myself a "doc formatting specialist" which is accurate, but the label is only useful to the tiny number of people who have wanted to hire someone who's not a typesetter and doesn't do magazine-layout graphic design.
Hypothetically, having robots in rescue service in places where there aren't roads. A small, light body, able to move fast over mixed terrain, would be greatly useful.
…why do I think that's not the intended purpose of these robots?
When Endgame was released, total world pop was just under 8 billion. Half of that, just under 4 billion, was…1973.
1973 was not a desolate wasteland with tiny cities and no high-tech infrastructure. There'd be some disruption (some BIG disruption), but…in 5 years, the world wouldn't look empty.
I never got through Endgame. The stupid was too much for me. I keep planning on watching it eventually - I don't like to miss canon details, and I want to see the spider-movie(s) - but. The utter lack of thought put into "what happens on earth after half the people vanish" kept throwing me out.
I like fictional, but I don't mind real-world if it's familiar enough to the group or GM that they can make plausible adaptations.
Making up a fake city for superheroes is difficult; figuring out how NY or SF or LA works with hero teams is easier, & you get the fun of using real-world landmarks.
What makes underwear worth $30/pair, instead of $3-5? Do they last 10x longer? Are they really that much more comfortable than Gildan's?
"This meeting could have been an email" but it's "This freeway could have been a high-speed rail line" AND I'M RIGHT
Hell, where are the "pro-life" people when it comes to infants living in poverty?
They're not pro-life. They're pro-birth. They want lots of births. They don't care what happens to the parents or the babies before or after that.
that sounds like solid grounds for an impeachment, if we had a Congress that impeached justices.
Because saying "I am only doing this job to hurt people" sounds like an admission that he's not trying to apply the law fairly or accurately.
(Not that I expect it to go anywhere.)
that was my thought. The *game* may have deeply triggering content for some people; the *trailer* just implies "there are some intense, dark themes involved."
It's not even clear that child abuse is the focus, just that there's definitely something creepy going on.
"We support games that address difficult subjects by publicly announcing that we're not going to allow coverage or advertising of those games, because so many of our attendees have delicate sensibilities that can't even watch a trailer after a 'hey this is dark' warning."
The trailer's visible in this article: kotaku.com/bafta-game-a...
...They could've just introduced it with a warning.
But maybe not even that, because there's nothing in the trailer that hits the "OMG too much too much" zone, esp when compared to trailers for zombie games & splatter-shooter games.
A great many things that say "not machine washable" actually mean "the texture changes if you wash it in a machine." And I'm fine with that.
translation: "We used really cheap dye and just soaked it extra-long; it's going to bleed color onto everything it touches until it's been washed at least 10 times. By that time, the fabric will be falling apart."
Many of the people in the armed forces also suck, and some are all-around awful people that I would not want in my house or even at my local grocery store.
...They still deserve human rights. And food. Especially when they've been put somewhere far from grocery stores.
He's trying to convince the court that it's a matter of national security that this ballroom gets built.
It's just…really hard to convince anyone it's a "ballroom" if those are the features.
He probably believes if he builds it and won't leave, he can't lose his job as president.
