  • I think this is an ELI5 question. The Supreme Court squashed all of Trumps sweeping tariffs. Then Trump comes along saying 10 percent global tariff isn't that what the SC just squashed?

    lol. Lmao.

    A dictatorship is unavoidable. The question is whether there will be sufficient violent opposition to qualify as a civil war. No resistance will come from the Democrats, they’ve spent decades disarming themselves and sanctifying victimhood as a virtue to aspire to. A new party would need to form, and there’s no indication of that yet.

  • It’s only a crisis if the Legislative or Judicial take a stand. So far, they’ve been surrendering. Even this tariff ruling is deliberately narrow to try to avoid Trump’s open defiance of the courts.

  • We’re flirting with a Constitutional Crisis.

    The legal arguments for Trump’s actions are bullshit. There’s no reason to pay them any mind. Rule of law has long been abandoned. There’s no shortage of crimes Trump’s committed that could justify his removal from office. But the Legislative branch is filled with a mixture of traitors that desire a King, and cowards that daren’t stand against one for fear of loss of their own elevated position in society. The Judicial is, as well. At some point, perhaps now, there will come a time when the other branches of government see they’ve given up too much power and are fading into irrelevancy, and will try to assert themselves. Trump will then openly defy them. That’s the point at which the US completes the transition into a dictatorship.

  • Humans' behavior about LLMs is the same as animals with a mirror: they believe there is "another" in there. It's just their reflexion

  • There’s been an extensive marketing campaign to convince people that LLMs are intelligent. I wouldn’t call someone a subhuman for assuming there is some truth to that.

    Of those that understand what an LLM is, I think you can divide them into two groups, the honest, and the dishonest. Honest people see no use in a bullshit generator, a lying machine. They see it as a perversion of technology. Dishonest people have no such objection. They might even truly see intelligence in the machine, as its outputs don’t differ substantially from their own. If you view language as a means to get what you want, rather than a means to convey factual information, then lying is acceptable, desirable, intelligent. It would be difficult for such a person to differentiate between coherent but meaningless bullshit, and a machine with agency making false statements to pursue its own goals.

    Why did most of the world got rid of monarchy, if we're going to elect dictators anyway?

    Has ICE's aggressive interior enforcement strategy, intended to protect citizens, instead made them less safe by eroding the trust that local police need to solve crimes in their own communities?
