CNN deliberately chose a commentator young enough to identify with Epstein's victims to show that "sensible young ladies" aren't getting all hysterical about the child and teen rape.
I hate, HATE it when they do this sort of thing, and they do it all the time.

Punishing students for protesting ICE is an excellent way to communicate that you are not there to serve the community or keep them safe. No points for humanity or basic decency but bravo for honesty, I guess.

Chronic pain is disability. So to everybody out there in pain all the time, you're disabled. I know we keep our chronic pain to ourselves because no one wants to hear about it & do our best to manage. But if it affects your day to day functionality, you're a disabled person.

So, when you use LLMs as thinking machines, you will run into variants of a core problem: It isn't reasoning. It's just a fancy bot that copy & pastes then rewords data written by humans. Which means:
1. It's implicitly capped by its human produced-training data, which is largely garbage.

It clearly can't infer from a simple one sentence question that I might need my car to wash my car, because it isn't intelligent, doesn't possess logic, and can't reason. When you ask it anything complex, it's coming across 10s, 100s, or 1000s of points where it has to infer context. 5/?

The AI bros (who clearly don't understand AI) in the comments are hilarious. "ask stupid questions, get stupid answers". LLMs have no concept of how intelligent a question is, and they certainly were not designed to deliberately give stupid responses if they deem your question too stupid. 1/?

LLMs do not understand, will not understand, and cannot ever understand information. It's a glorified search engine combined with auto-compete, and you should treat it as such. No matter how much LLM companies try to tell you their machines can think or reason, they cannot and will not.

I know Kevin knows this, but the explanation for this is clear: It's racism. Racism and xenophobia and misogyny.

He clumsily read his speech from the page without hardly looking up and told everyone in the room to follow the US's lead or suck it. He accused Europe of managed decline by not being racist enough, and if it doesn't fall in line then America won't be there for it. Not sure how reassuring that is.

"Patreon post header by Matthew Cortland, dated 02/12/2026, titled 'Oz Is Turning Medicaid Into a Surveillance Tool for ICE.' Includes a screenshot of a tweet from Ashish K. Jha (@ashishkjha) on February 9, 2026, which reads: 'People get mad at me for saying this but I think @DrOz has done a very good job overseeing CMS. Not just because he's advocating for vaccines. But because he's running a complex bureaucracy efficiently, promoting smart policy choices, etc. I am thankful for his leadership.' Jha's tweet is a quote tweet of Frank Luntz sharing an ABC News article quoting Oz saying 'Take the vaccine, please' as measles cases rise."
Oz's CMS is handing Medicaid data to the regime's child abducting, nurse murdering gestapo. In 28 states, ICE can see your diagnoses, your prescriptions, and where you receive care. No court restrictions at all. I wrote about how this works and what it means.

As someone with autoimmune diseases, I am far more concerned about them and the harm they cause than being neurodivergent. Being disabled in an ableist society, one that believes being autistic is something to be "cured", etc., is where I take issue.

Throughout history, people have been autistic, it just wasn't diagnosed/called that. I'm sure wildfire smoke is detrimental, but many of us were "in the spectrum" long before we ever encountered wildfire smoke.
