As bad as it seems, every time you see a headline you ask “who is this for and who does it work on”.

If you are a ken Paxton voter in Texas last week you are a ken Paxton voter in Texas this week. This headline isn’t for Paxton voters. so who remains?

People who are going to vote Talitico, they’re postivists. People who vote on negative sentiment are already voting for Paxton. So who is left?

This headline is for liberals and coasters.

Are people really that impressed with their private insurance plans?

No, its just the people, generally, are dumb as fuck. They barely know what words mean, let alone what they communicate when they come together into sentences.

I’m gonna push back on this in that you have no idea how or what structural biases are being baked into these. They also are intentionally built to give a sense of neutrality to things that aren’t neutral.

Also, it’s well known at this point that marketers are focusing on slip websites which can get agree gated into ml model training data sets. The new meta is to get your product into the llm and get the llm to recommend you.

They were doing this in the primary.

I was canvassing and a woman whipped out her phone and asked chatgpt which of the candidates most agreed with her. That’s who she said she’d vote for.

And this is why its relevant:

Where Trump took out full page ads in newspapers advocating for bringing back the death penalty specifically for the (now) Exonerated Five. Trump spent his own money to defame these men.

One of these things is not like the other

Central park five. Gee I wonder what the difference might be

Strix halo can support even bigger models, if slower. Also weird to put export controls on something your country doesn’t technically manufacture.

There’s no real stopping people from getting access to the technology required to run these models. And for the wast majority of the questions, speed isn’t as much the issue so much as memory capacity.

Hero.

bingo.

if you have to tell people to not believe the things they observe, think, and feel, immediately prior to an election… well… lets just say that if thats the case, things have not gone as planned.

Remember when Biden and Kamala told US voters " no actually you don’t understand. You’re actually doing pretty well economically"?

Anyways. vibe.

No body reads the terms and conditions.

And yet… here we are.

I’ll let Congress know to ask you if this comes up.

South Carolina has no bearing on the general. Stop allowing media to tell you it does.

Ah yes. Preposterously expensive supply chain limited devices with a what amounts to DRM on demand kill switches.

If your goal is territorial defense, nothing seems to beat small and light weight mobile drone combat. Short and medium ranges are basically solved. Ukraine and Iran have demonstrated the power of drones when your playing on home court territory.

Trump doesn’t give a fuck about the killing.

How do you always seem to have the most perpetually working and out of touch takes? Its like, actually shocking how consistently you end up on the wrong side of simple issues .

Not in a historical context.

Approval ratings in the 20’s have happened, but are incredibly rare. Truman, Nixon, and HW are the only ones who have had sustained breaches into the 20’s. And honestly, the science of polling is better now than its ever been. And those breaches also happened late into their terms.

So its pretty exceptional to be in the high 20’s. If its sustained over multiple polls, obviously thats confirmation.
