You can learn to swim in water that is shallow enough to stand in. And if being safe in the event of a pychopathic ‘prank’ is the primary concern, focus on learning how to tread water. Everything will seem easier once you know for sure that you can keep your head above water. Most people who are enjoying a pool or the sea are not actually swimming anywhere anyway.
Good grief. You don’t need to wave your hands so wildly, this is really fucking simple maths. Expenditure which is 21% of the total cannot possibly be the reason why USians pay 2-3 times more than everywhere else for drugs.
Advising a parent to torture a child over food is piss poor advice to start with but when the parent has identified possible autism, you realise you know less than nothing and shut the fuck up.
That’s a mind-numbingly obvious point which completely ignores the context, which is Pharma justifying their high prices based on the amount they spend on R&D.
The rest of the world gets drugs 2-3x cheaper than the US. Do you imagine they’re selling at a loss to everywhere else?
What percentage would be right?
Given that they’re using the cost of R&D to justify their prices? A lot more than 21%.
The rest of the world gets much lower prices. That’s not out of the goodness of their hearts or the generosity of their wallets, yaknow?
So the fuck what?
What did you think this bit meant?
(He’s likely on the spectrum.)
It’s how LLMs work.
The systems didn’t do anything they weren’t told to do.
You’re thinking of the kinds of algorithms written by human beings. AI is a black box. No one knows how these models obtain their answers.
Where did you get insurance carriers from?
No idea what your post, before or after edit, is trying to say. But the subject of your quoted sentence is “proponents of AI” not “AI”, and the sentence is about what is enabled by AI systems. Your attempt at pedantry makes no sense.
If you’re suggesting that it is possible to build an AI with none of the biases embedded in the world it learns from, you might want to read that article again because the (obvious) rebuttal is right there.
Yes, because bullying and shitty human behavior and mental health crises happen everywhere.
Technically, yeah. But still …

This is flat out ridiculous:
Woods presented his real Social Security card and an authentic state of California ID card, but the assistant branch manager became suspicious when Woods could not answer security questions that Kierans had set for the bank accounts.
The bank employee called the phone number listed on the accounts, which was Kierans’ number. At that point, Kierans correctly answered the security questions, and the assistant branch manager contacted the Los Angeles Police Department to investigate Woods.
Total incompetence from start to finish. But, you know, he was homeless. What are the police supposed to do, care about poor people?
There’s only 23 players in a squad and, traditionally, only the numbers 1-11 used on the pitch. There are no good reasons for 44, let alone 88, to exist.
“Ban” is a clickbait word. Adidas has decided not to make any more of them because it doesn’t want to be associated with Nazis. Oh noes.
The age of consent in Washington is 16.
Africa is more diverse than the rest of the world put together.
Which particular Africans are you referring to?
Legalisation suggests they’re going to regulate it. Decriminalisation is the word the sub-editor is looking for (the author gets it right).
It’s a click-baity headline. They previously required surgical transition, which results in sterilisation. You couldn’t ‘just’ get a vasectomy or hysterectomy to get legal recognition, you needed new genitals too.
BMI is a shit measure and studies like this are impossible to do well. That does not mean fruit juice is magically sugar-free.
The article is not arguing that it should have been any different. The sub-editor had a bad day and that’s OK.
