  • Ok. Thanks for clarifying.

    Although I am pretty sure AI is already used in the medical field for research and diagnosis. This “AI everywhere” trend you are seeing is the result of everyone trying to stick and use AI in every which way.

    The thing about the AI boom is that lots of money is being invested into all fields. A bubble pop would result in investment money drying up everywhere, not make access to AI more affordable as you are suggesting.


  • You and OP are misunderstanding what is meant by good and cheap.

    It’s not cheap from a resource perspective like you say. However that is irrelevant for the end user. It’s “cheap” already because it is either free or costs considerably less for the user than the cost of the resources used. OpenAI or Meta or Twitter are paying the cost. You do not need to pay for a monthly subscription to use AI.

    So the quality of the content created is not limited by cost.

    If the AI bubble popped, this won’t improve AI quality.


  • AI is good and cheap now because businesses are funding it at a loss, so not sure what you mean here.

    The problem is that it’s cheap, so that anyone can make whatever they want and most people make low quality slop, hence why it’s not “good” in your eyes.

    Making a cheap or efficient AI doesn’t help the end user in any way.

    8 weeks. Haha man that’s like a pipe dream.

    I think PTO works kind of the same in most places? My point is you can’t really force an employee to take PTO and if they ignore their PTO policy that should be on them.

    If a business closes down for Xmas new years, then you’re but really taking PTO right? Workplace is closed. If you force PTO to be taken and most of your staff dragged their feet or didn’t read their email, then essentially you’re unable to operate for the last month of every year

    They have a responsibility to let you know, yes. And they have to actually let you take it. Beyond that should be personal responsibility.

    Here are my expectations and how I normally experience pto policy at work.

    • HR has in writing company PTO policy. When and how to apply, how many per year, rollover policy.
    • HR provides friendly reminders in email to use it or lose it and the deadline is coming up.
    • HR provides a decent software system that tracks your PTO balance and history and is easy enough to use to request time off
    • HR reminds managers to approve PTO unless there is some issue in which case HR should help handle

    If a company does the above then the employee has no one to blame if their days are lost.

    Maybe unpopular but I’m not of the opinion that a business should babysit a grown adult and monitor their PTO and make them take it.

    How do you even imagine it? Can you force someone to take their PTO at any time? Or only when they will absolutely lose it? (End of year)

    So a company will lose how many days at the end of each year trying to force their staff to take days off?




  • I think it’s misunderstood that the ending is the issue when it’s really_the execution_ that failed.

    At the end of the day whatever the ending was going to be some people will hate it and others will nitpick the logic plot holes. However everyone got to where they were supposed to be in the story.

    It was the terrible time jumps and sudden twists and deaths and poorly displaying it on screen that made the last season really disappointing.

    Also the series had the unfortunate fate of peaking in season 4. Compared with Breaking Bad which had its best episode in the last season.


  • To anyone reading this, know that this guy is just posting Gish Gallop and misunderstanding the assignment.

    The question was which transfem Olympians this ruling protects against. As in, people who are switching from MtF to gain a competitive advantage by abusing the rules to steal medals?

    The very first example this guy cites is a 50yo MtF who joined some tiny school basketball team… to play basketball. Even in the game cited she played poorly and their team lost. They are not a competitive team in any sense.

    OP is purposely trying to pad out a list to make something a problem that isn’t. Somewhat ironic because thats basically the whole trans athlete issue summed up.



  • I just spent my lunch break checking out the instance and scrolling through the top weeks posts and checking out the comments.

    Hard no.

    1. Basically all their posts are political, except very pro-china, pro-marxist, anti-ukraine. Theres not a single post i consider a value add if it appeared in my scroll. Even if I gave the users and their viewpoints the benefit of the doubt, this would be like adding /r/china, /r/russia, /r/communism to my subs. I can’t think of a single reason i want this.

    2. I’m not giving the users the benefit of the doubt. Their comments are indistinguishable from what a ccp or Russian employee would post.

    All we would be doing is opening a potential vector for propagandists to attack. They post nothing of interest.


  • Curious how that would play out if other countries did the same. Oh no we didn’t declare war, it was this fat idiot Hirohito going rogue again, oopsie. Time for peace now, thank you for your attention to this matter.

    I mean that’s what they are doing in the middle east all the time. They literally attack each other endlessly but aren’t technically at war most of the time.

    OP is saying that there is a difference between actions that can be interpreted as an act of war and a formal declaration of war. It seems pedantic but I have to agree the difference is there. Iran has no interest declaring war on the US. Luckily there were enough adults making the decision that a retaliatory strike (with advance warning) was enough to call it a day.
