Someone got told their topic wasn’t original enough and took that as a challenge.

That is literally the job of the Associated Press. They republish press-releases across publications. At this point, most press releases are written by AI at least in part, so I’m not sure a further summary would be helpful.

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.

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.

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.

Oooo! Do Guaifenesin next! That also has basically no evidence of effectiveness despite being on the market for ages.

What you’re describing is called a citation or reference tree and they are used to visualize complex set of references. Web of Science has a nice one, Scopus also has a tree view, I believe. Google Scholar has the information to make one, but doesn’t.

Yep! $2.25 for the “convenience” every transaction on the shady new app my school district picked this year. I’m supposed to be grateful they moved to an app this year that processes the payments quickly instead of the 1 school day lag the last app had.

Dude needed to get his wildlife handler paperwork or shut the fuck up. He claimed he was getting it repeatedly and there’s evidence he did fuck all.

He got his animals killed by failing to adhere to the basic laws he already knew about. It wasn’t a surprise.

It’s called an Apricot Poodle, once in a great while I hear them called butterscotch poodles too.

Also, that’s a standard normal size poodle. They were water hunting dogs. It’s the little ones that are bred to be tiny that are weird.

That’s what the “Personal Communication” citation type is for.

If you read the law as written and voted on in Louisiana, it lists 11 Commandments, because there isn’t one list of Commandments that these people can agree on. But they can agree that everyone should be forced to look at them in school?

Just a reminder that even if the core work of the transcribing is done automatically now, being a media accessibility specialist who ensures the transcribing works and it is attached correctly, performs advocacy work for accessibility, and manages these systems, is a worthwhile job and will stay so for a long time.

Nice for you to live somewhere mild enough your car doesn’t need to pre-heat but some people live in Chicago and other places where it still snows and pre-heating the car is a must 3 months of the year.

I take it you’ve never been involved in such an endeavor? What you propose would take a decade a minimum due to the sheer number of nested advisory committees that would be required for those groups to interface. Better a non-profit group begins the work and then solicits these group’s input at the design stage.

Your forgot that plastic manufacturing knew it wasn’t recycled or recyclable.

No, law enforcement told schools that what happened on their property was their problem and that local law enforcement didn’t have time to deal with their problems. It should be very clear that cops retreated from our campuses, schools didn’t shut them out. Colleges and Universities would love for local law enforcement to come patrol the campus and handle assaults and all the rest but literally the cops told us it was too much trouble.
