I use it to outline and layout big documents and reports. I give it a list of tasks I did and it writes the long-form text in the approved style. I use it anytime I need to translate my thoughts or process into corporate jargon. And occasionally my bosses ask me for a report on something totally unrelated to what we are doing and I'll ask GPT to do the first pass on the topic and then come I'll back and re-write it iteratively as I figure out what part of the topic the boss really cares about.

Bullshit. Our best recourse as parents is to talk to our children every day to ensure their life has people who will listen and understand them as a constant presence, instead of random strangers on the Internet. Just exposure to this shit isn't the toxic part. It's the constant exposure without context and support of caring adults to help kids contextualize the information. Just like sex, alcohol, and every other complex "adult" thing.

This would not be effective for student loan debt because it's still non-dischargable, unlike consumer debt.

I'm 2001 I was concerned about how long "Never Forget" was going to last and it is definitely dead now.

The lawsuit was about the fact the school knew for months about the problem and did nothing to address it. If they plausibly couldn't know, it wouldn't have been their fault but this was reported to the admin repeatedly and they did nothing.

One of them was just found to have published comments in their college newspaper insisting that rape was only a crime if the woman was actively resisting. This is a dangerous move away from the current legal consent standard.They will re-define rape out of existence.

There's always churn and turnover, I've been part of communities that lost up to 3 of the top 5 sites for something etc. and the community bounces back in a couple of months. Streaming sites aren't horrifically difficult to set up so they will often reappear shortly with similar interface.

It sounds reasonable because at the core it's a mental healthcare system, something this country threw away without a backup plan decades ago.

I was gonna say this was some high-quality bullshit but after this year I just assume RFK Jr. was involved somehow.

Unfortunately it's gonna be the mailroom intern who followed directions from someone else to open all "that other mail", not the person who made the decision.

That would be the job the Congress's Government Accountability Office. Having 2 totally seperate and independent orgs in charge of government efficiency is peak Trump logic.

 

I'm reading Organizing Solutions for People with ADHD by Susan Pinksky and it is full of helpful advice and useful tips. But I don't like to hear the truth sometimes.

The actual quote from the book is "If you are purchasing items for a project, pause to put the date you will DO the project on your calendar (preferably within the week). If the project doesn't get done, reschedule it so those supplies stay on your radar.... We should only buy items for which we have an imminent plan or need."
