  • Man Wakes Up Homeless, Realizes He Fell Into AI Psychosis That Destroyed His Entire Life

    Jump

  • First guy: “I’ve never been manic in my life. I’m not bipolar."

    I'm just highly skeptical of this.

    Second guy: That wasn’t the worst of it. At that point he had blown nearly $12,000 trying to create world-changing code. He became manic, and his concerned therapist called the cops to check in on him. He was institutionalized for nearly two weeks

    Yeah that sounds right. Regarding "AI psychosis," everything I've read indicates it exacerbates existing psychoses, it doesn't create them. That's not to say it can't mess with people's psychology, especially the stuff around suicide, but I think the "AI psychosis" the media portrays is not real

  • National Guard soldier leaves rifle in French Quarter bathroom

    Jump

  • The National Guard is a part time job, one weekend per month and two weeks per year. Unless you get called by your governor, that is, to patrol the streets of New Orleans indefinitely with no end goal. Also, no one around you wants you there. Not a surprise that a mistake like this would happen under these circumstances.

    Also, going to the bathroom in the French Quarter can be an ordeal for anyone, honestly

  • Do you use LinkedIn? Is it worth it?

    Jump

  • LinkedIn is fine. I work in community-based healthcare and interact with a shit ton of people from other organizations, and having LinkedIn to look people up is incredibly useful. You don't need to post on LinkedIn, or read the feed at all. For me, it's purely a way to connect with other people I know. If someone does an internet search for your name, it's also likely going to be the first hit, and can help prospective employers know who you are

  • Ricky Martin is aging like wine, Kid Rock is aging like milk left out in the sun in Arizona.

  • What's the minimum number of food items you can survive on exclusively and what are they?

  • Fuck, now the Parry Gripp song is stuck in my head. My son moved on from this a couple years ago, but the horrors persist

  • Anyone have a traditional dish that they love to eat?

    Jump

  • Has anyone here ever done an intensive outpatient (IOP) program? Just wanted to share my experience for those who might try it.

    Jump

  • This is amazing to hear, and I'm glad it's gone so well for you! You unlocked to key to IOP, which is to show the fuck up. And that doesn't just mean being there, but being mentally present and being open to what's bring offered

  • Who entered Epstein's jail tier the night of his death? Newly released video logs appear to contradict official accounts.
