AFAIK the ruling about serving same sex couples specifically relates to “compelled speech”, which means it definitely doesn’t apply in this context and Amazon is hoping that right wing courts will expand the ruling (they might).
I’m not actually an investment genius, I’m just gambling like the rest of them.
This is something I’ve thought was true for a while, but your comment made me go back and look for decent sources and while I found a few articles bemoaning tech in schools I also found a lot of good-looking scientific studies saying that it’s fine or even beneficial, so I deleted my comment.
AFAIK now, the negative outcomes are when it’s home schooling or COVID-era distance learning and the kid is only doing work on an ipad, so the problem isn’t the tech itself it’s the absence of a structured school environment with a teacher.
Haven’t paid for a TV show or a movie in a long time - but I also very rarely watch those.
For stuff I do all the time I do end up paying for the convenience of steam/gog/etc.

AFAIK it’s just something that hasn’t been tested, but that goes for basically all digital “shrinkwrap contracts” from your iTunes EULA to the license on your github repo. Good luck being the first person to test it if you’re not a major corporation, though.
If the designation of “open source” is such that any open source project can be used by massive corporations or militaries or anything else like that, then the designation “open source” isn’t worth protecting and we need a new one that allows for free use by enthusiasts and other free projects but that is blocked or paywalled from profit-seeking ones.
I also don’t think that the ChatGPT model is able to do something that requires referencing case law or medical texts or whatever else at all in its current form. The way it works by generating probabilities for certain words is all wrong for doing something where the value of the output isn’t subjective - you need the model to be able to distinguish between facts and opinion, you need it to be able to cite sources for what it says, you need it to be able to produce coherent cause and effect chains and formulate an argument, all things which no currently existing LLM is capable of no matter how much you fine tune it because of how it works.
I like them as non-profit tools for personal use, but the hatred is justified IMO because we’re already seeing people with writing jobs lose that job and get replaced by an LLM and an “editor” who is paid less than the writer was.
Also, for stuff like art competitions and magazines, there is a need to develop a rigorous method of verification of what is and isn’t AI-generated. I’ve been published in a magazine before, but if I were to submit a story now I’d be competing against a massive wave of generated stories.
The Resistance should have had all their ships run away in different directions. Sure one of them will get chased down and blown away, but 95% escaping would have been a much better result than what they got. My headcanon is that if Leia hadn’t been unconscious that’s exactly what she would have done, and Holdo was at a “Civil War General” level of incompetence.
But the Rey/Luke/Kylo stuff was great. Rian Johnson actually figured out something to do with the Jedi that hadn’t been done before, and killing off the bad Emperor knockoff was 100% the right call. Every character in that plot was actively making decisions that revealed their character rather than being propelled along by plot contrivance, it was great.
There’s also a ton of potential in the B plot, all you have to do it rewrite it a bit. Maybe they find out that the dreadnought isn’t tracking them with a new piece of technology after all, and since they can’t find a tracking device they suspect there’s a spy. Maybe the reason they go to the rich people planet isn’t to find some macguffin guy, but to find the people funding the FO and shoot them. The Jedi plot ends with Rey deciding not to burn the Jedi’s teachings - you could dramatically pair that with Finn deciding to blow up the arms dealers profiting off of endless galactic war.
It occurs to me that you could get some really high-speed cooling with liquid nitrogen (or dry ice and alcohol) but the reality of working with cryogenic fluids is that they’re pretty dangerous so I don’t think anyone would do that. Unlike a microwave where the dangerous part (the waves) is all self-contained and turns off the instant you open the door.
At some point I just accepted that I’ve become one of those “I don’t really watch TV” people, although I also accept that watching youtube videos and listening to podcasts isn’t much better.

Everybody has limits set on their behavior in society generally, and in schools those limits are often more strict. I also object to the notion that enforced dress on a gendered basis is a “harmless or innocuous” practice.

lol nerd
I worded it poorly, but my point was that France’s enforcement of a dress code is far less extreme than the cultural intervention in Xinjiang. Furthermore I think that all of the people in this thread who’ve compared it to Native American residential schooling are themselves engaging in genocide denial by way of minimization.
wear shoes and shirt
wear dress that is explicitly designed to dehumanize you
these are the same thing
