  • Did you not pay attention to how Kamala was called a liar by media for saying Trump would send the military against cities?

    ... And then he did?

    Did you not pay attention to how he claimed credit for Covid funds that Democrats established? Blaming Democrats for Trump judges' decisions? Setting up Afghanistan so the exit would happen at the start of Biden's turn to hurt his approval when it predictably turns to chaos? How Biden's age was somehow a problem but Trump's never was?

    Media was hysterical about how democrats would make everything worse somehow but never explaining it, then repeating Trump's claims that he's deliver the best economy ever and all kinds of bullshit like it.

    And with all that Trump still didn't even get 50%!

  • Real-time in computing usually either means a real-time OS with guaranteed low latency response (typically for stuff like microcontrollers regulating machines) or streaming live data (low latency delivery of the most recent value)

    This sounds like the latter, and a typical SQL database don't guarantee real-time updates (you can have "atomic writes" to prevent inconsistency but usually this would make it slower) but some databases like this one are designed to ensure you can read out updated correct and consistent values much faster. Also with standard databases you usually make scheduled individual requests, but a real-time database could often send a stream of updated values to a "subscribing" program

  • The verification doesn't work like on Twitter, it's just proving the identity, it's not some flag of prominence.

    There's even multiple organizations who can issue verifications on bluesky, for example newspapers can act as verifiers of their own staff;

  • It's actually kinda easy. Neural networks are just weirder than usual logic gate circuits. You can program them just the same and insert explicit controlled logic and deterministic behavior. To somebody who don't know the details of LLM training, they wouldn't be able to tell much of a difference. It will be packaged as a bundle of node weights and work with the same interfaces and all.

    The reason that doesn't work well if you try to insert strict logic into a traditional LLM despite the node properties being well known is because of how intricately interwoven and mutually dependent all the different parts of the network is (that's why it's a LARGE language model). You can't just arbitrarily edit anything or insert more nodes or replace logic, you don't know what you might break. It's easier to place inserted logic outside of the LLM network and train the model to interact with it ("tool use").

  • If you asked people about their policies and literally absolutely anything they wanted to do, and hid the names, Trump always lost because he is MORE unpopular

    Media helped Trump steal credit for things others did, instill fear of things his opponents never would do, etc. Nobody lost to Trump by being a worse candidate, but because media refused to be honest and people believed the lies

  • Trump lost the popular vote in 2016 and 2020 and still was below 50% in 2024 AND his policies never got support from a majority ever when presented without a name.

    There has never been a majority who has liked anything he had to offer.

    This was a propaganda war from racist wealthy assholes who bought out a ton of the companies controlling the media landscape. They exploited bullshit election rules and lied and bribed and extorted to suppress resistance, all just so they could be assholes in public without being called in it.

  • People who opposed the monster won't feel offended by that. Normies won't be here to see it.

    And some of these hardline ultrapurists has to be shamed into doing the right thing

  • Some of these people are broken enough that they feel they are protecting "their own" by going on the attack against "the others".

    As long as they can still be led to believe somebody they don't know is dangerous without evidence, then increasing empathy isn't a solution by itself. You have to either force them to think twice, apply critical thinking, question sources and motives, demand evidence, etc, or else simply make them stop.
