Which sounds reasonable until you think about what costs we refuse to externalize (road repair) and which costs we happily externalize (pollution).

It’s an interesting discussion I’ve had with coworkers recently where there’s a strong sentiment with some people that renewable energy needs to stand on its own, but the same argument could be made for fossil fuels and needing to account for environmental damage in pricing. Subsidizing renewable energy (tax credits, avoiding gasoline tax, etc) is an indirect way to compensate for the externalized costs of fossil fuels, which wouldn’t be palatable or popular if done directly.

Money needs to come from somewhere for roads, but it’s very hard to decouple infrastructure funding concerns from environmental concerns since no one is willing to tackle the problem head on with something like a carbon tax.

“You can’t quit, you’re fired!”

Don’t worry guys, Schumer has a proven ability to snatch defeat from the jaws of victory, no chance this doesn’t end in some kind of capitulation that fails to get any concessions.

I take issue with “Yet”, as if this is a surprise or was contrary to the intent of unleashing ICE in the first place. Very similar to the latest act of ICE in airports.

Headline writers torch headlines with the word “slammed”

Makes me wonder what that 27% is smoking and even that 29%.

But I will say for once this number is less than the 30-something percent of true believers, maybe some cracks in the MAGA faithcism? One can hope that there is a line… I’d would’ve hoped the Epstein files would have been that but here we are.

But don’t worry, they will be exactly 50ft outside those polling places surrounding major entrance points.

My gut response is that everyone understands that the models aren’t sentient and hallucination is short hand for the false information that llms inevitably and apparently inescapably produce. But taking a step back you’re probably right, for anyone who doesn’t understand the technology it’s a very anthropomorphic term which adds to the veneer of sentience.

The thing I find amusing here is the direct quoting of Gemini’s analysis of its interactions as if it is actually able to give real insight into its behaviors, as well as the assertion that there’s a simple fix to the hallucination problem which, sycophantic or otherwise, is a perennial problem.

I read it more as no one is safe, not even people ostensibly from the in-group.

I predict the administration will take this feedback and examine ways to… just kidding, there will be deranged posts, threats, and some kind of ham handed attempt to take over or disband the CBO.

Makes sense, this is why Bad Horse leads the evil league of evil.

Weeks later after a bunch of headlines and sound bites… “Senate minority leader Chuck Schumer has agreed to Trump’s federal take over of mid term elections. In return republicans have agreed to pinky promise that the election will be fair and to walk by a room that has the latest proposal on extending ACA benefits.”

Now if he rolls these into Tesla he’ll be on his way to ticking off one of the requirements to unlock his completely legitimate cagillion dollar pay package.

The libs will be owned, damn the consequences!

Reading through a bit it sounds like it works on Linux, not on Windows. Folks are hypothesizing it’s disabled at the ACPI level because different drivers don’t help.
