If it wasn't for this rule, Wikipedia could have become myspace.

Racism is highly heritable. This comports to the research, personal observation, and common sense.

The observation that it's not 100% heritable is obtuse. Height is only 60-80% heritable.

They should have named it "Rationalization".

I've scoured all the literature and made an exhaustive summary:

Women are responsible for my problems.

Vance is a big phat phony in the vein of Ted Cruz and Lindsey Graham. Even credulous MAGA smells a rat. Everybody else suspects he's a Wall st. mole to soothe the minds of the ownership class.

No matter how you look at it, Vance is another bad deal brought to you by Donald Trump.

It is a good and smart move for a foreign power to align itself with conservatives under Trump. Israel will certainly not regret marrying herself to Donald Trump.

During the Nakba ('47-48), Israel abandoned Jewish settlements in the hinterlands to the mercy of Palestinian militia and Arab soldiers so their troops could continue with the ethnic cleansing in parts of the country deemed more vital. David Ben-Gurion would make speeches apoplecticly predicting the second Shoah while in private and in his diaries he was preoccupied with the ethnic cleansing and knew the Arab armies were no threat. (especially Trans Jordan whom he had a secret side agreement with)

This is a reminder for the people who think Israel will prioritize the hostages, and the people who think Netanyahu is the problem.

Same thing that happened to the tankies' revolution. It was mostly bluster and bluff.

This idea of a a single income supporting a family is part of that past that never existed. That was never the norm for Americans. (So long as POC and women count as Americans)

Progressives shouldn't look backward. It's gross.

I know all this irrational exuberance over the good news Democrats have been getting since Biden dropped out is going to come with a hangover, but fuck it, I'm having a blast!

The Harris team should insist that the microphone not be muted. I know this will make the debate unwatchable, but the rule obviously benefits Trump, because Harris already knows how to wait her turn without electronic intervention.

They're going to check and see if amputating the sex organs of women was honorable and brave? I guess to be fair, there weren't many men around to mutilate.

She brings back the 7layer and I'm canvasing.

News of an accidental death always brings out the amateur investigators who'll confirm the stupidity of the victim.

It reassures us that death won't come, because I'm careful. This goes double for firearms accidents.

When they charge the pig before the body-cam is released, you know it's indefensible.

I hear you can get a pretty good offer from CrowdStrike these days.

I remember a story where a dude bought a t-34 or maybe a Sherman, and the HOA threatened to have it towed. 🤣

I think it's a mistake to center the ethnic cleansing on Netanyahu or his government. When you read the history, there is an unbroken through-line between Ben-Gurion and Netanyahu insofar as the Palestinians are concerned. Liberal, conservative, secular, or religious the Israeli government has pursued a policy of ethnic cleansing.

I just want to push against the idea that a Netanyahu defeat to a more liberal government is a solution. Because in Gaza, it's meet the new boss....

It's not your fault. Pop psychology refuses to die. There is plenty of crap in good standing among scientists that's absolute garbage.

The whole branch of evolutionary psychology is so subjective and immune from experiment it's a bastion for cranks, misogynists, and scientific racists. And speaking of Scientific racism: IQ does not measure intelligence.

Think of LLMs like a stupid office worker. You wouldn't rely on them to make critical decisions, but they're valuable for tedious stuff.

For example, my calendar changed the way to enter new events breaking my workflow. Now I just type out a skeletal schedule and have LLM convert that into a .csv that I import.

I'm thinking of Ripping my CD collection again. I'm researching a way to use a LLM to tidy up the metadata.

I had a folder full of random stuff I've saved for years. Had a LLM organize and categorize it for me. I had to tweak the prompt enough that this was a medium difficulty task, but still way easier than doing it manually.
