Agreed. Yet, on the other hand, this article suggests the father understood the magnitude of his assholery in the moments before he suffered the consequences. He understood he had murdered his son and himself.
That by no means makes any of it okay and I don't even think it is the bright side of events, but I take some satisfaction in knowing that motherfucker understood that those were his final moments and the final moments of his son, and that it was all perfectly preventable, and that he hadn't done so - and all the money in the world wasn't going to change that.
That is the exact level of suffering all these rich assholes who exploit and abuse the world and the people around them for fun and profit deserve, but so few get. Suffering never makes me happy, but there is something satisfying in that knowledge.
LLM are non-deterministic. "What they are capable of" is stringing words together in a reasonable facsimile of knowledge. That's it. The end.
Some might be better at it than others but you can't ever know the full breadth of words it might put together. It's like worrying about what a million monkeys with a million typewriters might be capable of, or worrying about how to prevent them from typing certain things - you just can't. There is no understanding about ethics or morality and there can't possibly be.
I've been out of work for 4 months and tbh, getting desperate. But I saw a job posting that talked about KPIs and didn't even apply. Homelessness would be less shitty than dealing with that (I say having never been homeless and probably not going to be).
You have to care about the people, to foster a culture of caring about the work. Caring, motivated people are the backbone of a business - they aren't easily replaceable resources that you just hire off the street as needed.
Glad to be wrong about all that. Being an astronaut was my biggest dream 40 years ago. But we can't all be astronauts, so I had to settle for my second dream - shitposting on the internet.
In all seriousness, it's important work for the future of humanity. I don't want someone to fuck it up for profit or because it's not their ass on the line. I'm glad those fears are unfounded here.
There are two kinds of people: those who understand it's juvenile humor and are just memeing on it for funsies, and those who don't understand that and are never going to be high information voters and JD Vance fucks couches must just be the message that gets them to vote.
My optimism in humanity leads me to believe there are very few of the latter. What I'm certain of is the joke does no harm and is a silly little meme. President Trump was a silly little meme in 2015 but then Hillary ran the worst campaign in living memory (Kamala saved Biden from that dubious distinction), and here we are. So I'm okay with it, but obviously it has no place in serious conversation except to inject some laughs.
Possibly just distancing themselves from Trump to position themselves for a post-Trump world. Normally its only retirees who don't face reprisal from Trump or voters that speak out anyway.
There is also at least one astronaut up there who smuggled a pack of chewing gum that can be used to plug the leaks once all other options are exhausted, but he hasn't told anyone because he'll get in trouble.
Mission managers were aware of the leaks before the vehicle lifted off but had said they were unlikely to affect the flight or the astronauts’ safety.
So managers made that decision? Not engineers? Rocket scientists?
So they are all jockeying over who is going to fall on their sword when this ship blows up on reentry. We're going to hear later about an engineer who tried to put a stop to it but was overruled because there was only a 30% chance of everything going to hell. It's the Challenger all over again in slow motion.
Just scuttle the ship and send a rescue mission. And fire whoever they are throwing under the bus, since that's the only closure we're likely to get.
I do indeed believe that is the thrust. It's a very aggressive and threatening move. Certainly a commitment to the continuing conflict.
It doesn't bode well for any sort of cease fire. I feel bad for the Palestinian and Israeli people, but Hamas and the Israeli government are two peas in a very violent pod. Both itching to escalate and provoke one another.
This is far kinder than this post deserves. You are good people. My version would be about 80% expletives and unkind insinuations regarding their mother.
I think overall it'll never be able to create quality entertainment.
But Ow! My Balls! isn't quality entertainment. I'm sure it can create all kinds of clips of things smashing into groins for ultra low-brow entertainment. Probably today.
