While there was nothing offensive in the speech, the school said it was “too long,” lasting beyond the four-minute timeframe he was given.

Somebody’s on a serious power trip.

Thank you for your attention to this matter.

Who does he think he’s talking to?

“Guys! Guys! Guys! I’ve got a brilliant idea!” Elon Musk to the Space X Engineers.

Nobody said it did.

I absolutely agree. My comment was merely a tidbit of information to throw out there for people to put in their tool belt, for “just in case.”

As one of the people that up voted many of those posts, I can assure you that it was because they were just in my main feed and lumped in with the other news and I didn’t notice what community they were in. Thank you for bringing this to my attention. I’ll try to be more vigilant in the future.

There are plenty of very popular general “News” communities. Nobody is going to harass you for posting stuff that’s not really uplifting to any of them.

I don’t know if things will be different this time around, but I recall similar restrictions to the COVID vaccine when they were still in the process of rolling it out and there was limited supply.

So, here’s the thing. The pharmacist would ask, “Do you have one of these conditions that put you at high risk?”. You could simply answer, “Yes.” They would not ask you which one. They would not ask for proof. They would just give you the shot.

So, do what you will with that info.

As zombies?

For LLMs, yes.

But, theoretically, AI should be extremely good at sifting through mountains of data, and much faster than all other methods we have, identifying which data a human should take a closer look at. That’s what I presume this paper supposedly demonstrated.

My guess here is that a lazy student decided to take the easy path and fake data to “demonstrate” results that nobody would be surprised by and want to look closer at the data, but somebody looked anyway, probably because the student was a known slacker, and it wasn’t the results of the research that surprised them, but just that the student did the research at all.

However, in this case, a resort for rich, presumably predominantly white , people, probably doesn’t meet your criteria for “needs of the living population.” It certainly doesn’t meet mine.

The sister raised in the US had an IQ 16 points lower than her sibling in Korea. Previous studies revealed that identical twins typically have no more than a 7-point IQ difference, making this case astounding.

Jesus Christ! Look at your own chart and actually read it! Look at the bottom 3 lines. 43%, 46%, 39%. That’s millions of people that you’re straight faced pretending don’t exist.

Maybe the Good Boomers died out

No! They’re right there in your chart! Voting! Protesting! Getting arrested for protesting! Fucking hell!

Did some drift to the right? Sure. But that doesn’t mean that the rest of them cease to exist. The same thing is already happening to your generation, whatever it is. If you happen to be one of the measly 46% still on the left when you’re in your 70’s, I’m sure you won’t have any complaints when people tell you that you don’t exist, anymore. I mean, 46% of 30ish million people is only… what… 5 or 6 people? Maybe a dozen at most? I don’t know, you do the math.

Every protest I’ve been to so far this year (Hands Off, May Day, multiple Saturday mornings in front of the Tesla dealership, plus a few others) has been overwhelmingly people between 50 and 80. Where were all the younger generations at? I can tell you from personal experience where some of them were. They were driving by flipping us off. Where were you?

the people most likely to be his fans are boomers

Be careful there. You’re dangerously close to falling into the trap of blindly labeling anyone older than you a “boomer” and using the term disparagingly to paint a broad stroke that isn’t justified.

According to Wikipedia, Baby Boomers are the generation “often defined as people born from 1946 to 1964 during the mid-20th century baby boom that followed the end of World War II.”

They are followed by Generation X, which is “generally defined as people born from 1965 to 1980”

“Born in the USA” was recorded in 1984

The oldest “boomers” at this point were nearing 40 years old. Some of the oldest Gen Xers were already in college. So one could easily argue that most of his fans are probably Gen Xers.

and the people most likely to get mad about him, are of the boomer generation.

Here’s a few things that the “boomer generation” is known for that you may not be aware (just to barely scratch the surface).

• Woodstock
• Kent State massacre
• The Civil Rights Movement

Bruce Springsteen (a boomer) has never been shy about his views on these kinds of things. His actual fans are fully aware and still fans. This isn’t him surprising them with some radical statement out of nowhere. This is him reminding them of what they already knew and asking them to continue to fight the good fight.

ETA: Another notable boomer was arrested this week protesting a congressional hearing.

Problem is that Lemmy/Fediverse simply doesn’t have the established depth and breadth of information that reddit does yet, and reddit does have it because it sort of killed the internet forums that would have existed foe those subjects.

That’s the problem OP is asking you to help solve.

This has been the GOP’s goal for decades.

They cultivated a culture of contempt for the law

and education.

Musk’s shitty behavior aside, it’s extremely overvalued. I don’t understand what people are thinking.

Fiduciary duty alone should have been enough to stop them buying a long time ago. When the stock price finally comes back to earth, there will be lawsuits galore.

This is probably the whole point.
