I don't think they really query one another. Maybe they do though?

I wonder how undergrads would do on the same exams given unlimited time and internet access but with LLMs blocked. That's essentially what the LLMs have.

I don't usually use much profanity but this is a fucking travesty and the six conservative justices are traitors to the American people. They should all be impeached for blatant corruption and for being bought and paid-for by industry interests. They're not even going to be embarrassed about their scientific mistake except that they got caught out on not understanding what they're ruling on. They know they aren't the experts in everything. They just want corporations to have free reign and for them to be able to trample the rights of citizens.

This is going to allow the courts to rapidly unwind decades of progress that has been made on some of the most important subjects including environmental regulations, workplace regulations and employee rights, antitrust law, and anticorruption law to name a few. Between this and the Jarkesy decision we're going to go back to the days of burning eyes in Los Angeles and Lake Erie on fire, deadly workplaces and no employee right to organize, anticompetitive corporate practices with no oversight, and rampant corporate fraud. There is no longer a reasonable enforcement mechanism due to Jarkesy and there is now no real rule-making authority.

As I said before, all six conservative justices should be impeached for blatant corruption and working against the best interests of the American people. I'd settle for impeaching Alito and Thomas, but they should all be impeached. They are traitors to the American people.

Does anyone know where I can find a time line of this case? I'm really curious how it took four years to litigate something this egregious. Four years to reach a settlement, not even a litigate court ruling.

Perfect image!

Just practicing my Japanese. A good translation for this would be "Please do not leave your trash here".

Well, DeSantis has been waging war on the mouse for a while, though he does seem to be backing down some.

America haters

These people also like to say that Democrats and progressives hate America.

Does anyone know how I can get this game to appear in either the NYT Games or the normal NYT app?

How does the archive.org exemption work? When is it voted on next?

Thank you for pointing this out. I wasn't aware of this movement. It seems like a great idea!

Great photo! I always love these guys. The goth versions of Blue Jays!

I don't want to be pedantic but it's "Steller's Jay".

The bird is named after the German naturalist Georg Wilhelm Steller, the first European to record them, in 1741. source

 

 

 

I keep running into issues where I'm unsure of which account I'm currently using. It would be nice if it were more obvious at all times. Two things that would help me are:

  • always display the current user somewhere, regardless of what content is being viewed.
  • allow setting different color themes for different users.
 
 

I use Podcast Addict and have recently noticed location-based ads in my podcasts. Adds that are local to my large town / small city. The app doesn't have location permissions, so how are the podcasts embedding localized ads?

 

They decided to give a show today. Six of them were hanging out on the dock, but when I stopped to take pictures, they all decided to take off and do circles over the lake.

I got lucky and this guy posed for me for about five minutes. I tried to get some in flight, but they're simply too fast for me!

This beautiful bird has been hanging out at our local lake for the last several weeks. I've been trying to get some pictures of him and he finally got close enough for my lenses.

Three or four of these guys have been hanging out in the lake near my house.
