If the RIAA could get millions from kids downloading songs on Napster, wouldn’t it be reasonable to expect that AI companies pay for the intellectual property that they have stolen from anyone who has ever posted anything on the internet?
Maybe AI companies can exist as long as they fund universal basic income.
“Proof of effectiveness” means a placebo controlled trial. Preferably multiple, with sample sizes substantial enough for sufficient statistical power.
Ah yes, experimenting on poor Native kids with a robot that looks like a fucking sex doll.
The long term goal is absolutely to remove educators from education. Robot is cheaper than a teacher and you control what it teaches.
It makes you complacent.
Sometimes that’s good.
I quit for a while to try to get a government job. My dream job. They offered, then rescinded because of trans/Trump’s EO.
Now I don’t give a fuck. I’m sober for work, but otherwise when I’m home I’m high.
Like I can’t do anything about climate change/the fact that the president is a rapist, but I can get stoned, enjoy food that feels like it’s making love to my taste buds, make art that my fucked up brain tells me is a masterpiece and have mind blowing sex that means I don’t have to engage with conscious thought at all.
Probably better to remember the trope and discuss it rather than bury it.
I think the way to do that is have it called out on the show. Model that kind of good bystander behavior.
Like, right now we have a president that has raped multiple women and children. His appointees and cronies have also raped women and children. It’s critical to be talking to kids about consent.
Appreciate the offer g - I think my big thing right now is finding a bag/system that I like. I really struggle with getting them to stay on! It’s hotter than heck outside and I sweat like a stuck pig/am reluctant to shave my belly hair.
Imagine being a little girl growing up watching that. The message is that someone sexually harassing you and refusing to take a “no” is common and normal. Just an annoyance.
There’s an entire genre of these weird “fruit Love Island” AI dramas that pop up on my TikTok. It’s terribly animated anthropomorphic fruit, and the plot is usually that the wife is cheating on the husband with the boss and gets pregnant.
We “learned” that in 6th grade science.
I remember the same teacher had a test question which was something like “you and a friend are playing at a landfill, and your friend spills sulfuric acid all over themselves, what should you do?” and the ‘correct’ answer was “pour sodium hydroxide on the spill” instead of my answer of “pour water on the spill.”
I had another science teacher who made a huge deal about her chronic Lyme, which is this really weird alternative medicine thing.
The thing with Hadith is that they are stories/sayings attributed to his companions. That kind of commentary is about how trustworthy it is - how close to the original source, who relayed it… same as any historical analysis. It’s a scholar saying the evidence isn’t in the sayings favor for being historical.
Not a real Socrates quote. It’s very popular to make up this genre of quote.
And you shall not lie with any animal and so make yourself unclean with it, neither shall any woman give herself to an animal to lie with it: it is perversion. (Leviticus 18:23)
“‘Cursed be anyone who lies with any kind of animal.’ And all the people shall say, ‘Amen.’ (Deuteronomy 27:21)
Whoever lies with an animal shall be put to death. (Exodus 22:19)
The Quran doesn’t say anything that I can find, but there are hadith.
Did you know that body builders often seek out breast milk for macro purposes? There’s nothing inherently sexual about breasts or breast milk.
Also, even if you were mixing sperm into your food, the implication is that the food is being stolen. If someone is stealing your soggy cookies, that’s kinda on them.
That was the explanation. I did not get an answer on why he’s being injected with AIDS (especially instead of HIV, could have been a teaching moment)
It’s a no name brand I got from Bezo’s outlet. Ran out of my coloplast free samples and it’s oddly hard to buy bags without insurance.
I sit to pee but stand to shit
Edit:
I worked at a shitty movie theatre for years and was promised an assistant general manager position - as in, showed my name tag with the position. Learned both front and back of house, worked literal 100 hour weeks (no OT, no benefits because “entertainment industry.”
Instead, they hired a random sociopathic woman who was lazy and did nothing at all. Not only verbally abusive, but also physically assaulted me. Absolutely tanked morale and they started hemorrhaging employees.
I know more colleges did used to offer home ec - I remember taking a history class in a building that had been used for that purpose, and I was at a state school.
It’s not unusual to have “health” classes that do involve some meal planning/learning recipes - I’ve tutored both high schoolers and college kids who’ve had those classes. The college version seems to typically be online though, which is of limited use.
I’d love to take the clothing construction classes. It’d be fascinating to compare a votech sewing course versus an art school fashion design course versus this.
plausibly be the same, but that’s not the same as actually knowing.
No research can prove a positive.
Most research in social sciences uses a p-value of 0.05. Statistically, this means that we are expected a 1/20 chance of a type 1 error, a false positive.
It’s more about establishing patterns than “proof” of any kind of absolute law. Human behavior isn’t governed like rigid bodies or genetics.
Effectiveness is independent of mechanism. As an example, to my knowledge SSRIs don’t really make sense but mostly outperform placebo.
