Why is that relevant?

I think this article does a good job of exploring and explaining how LLM attempts at text summarization could be more accurately described as “text shortening”; a subtle but critical distinction.

It routinely baffles me when folks think that copy-pasting crap into and out of a chatbot somehow contributes to a conversation. It’s like half a step up from telling everyone about the dreams you had last night

Canada Dry makes a damn good zero-sugar ginger ale

Vance, too, has recently been questioned about Trump’s ties to Fuentes. Vance was asked about Fuentes’ dinner with Trump during an interview with ABC News on Sunday. “The one — the one thing I like about Donald Trump, Jon, is that he actually will talk to anybody,” Vance told ABC News’ Jonathan Karl. “But just because you talk to somebody doesn’t mean you endorse their views. And look, I mean Donald Trump spent a lot of quality time with my wife. Every time he sees her, he gives her a hug, tells her she’s beautiful and jokes around with her a little bit.”

JD Vance is apparently so comfortable with Trump openly flirting with his wife right in front of him that he’ll happily bring it up unprompted in an interview.

I grew up in a very white community.

That feels like practically a feature, when you have an eternity to fill and only a finite number of original stories with which to do so.

I’m not sure whether or not the android Data could be considered autistic from an in-universe perspective, but I would say that as a character Data was inspired by autistic humans and written in a way that neurodivergent viewers would empathize with. At least that’s how he’s always come across to me, as a neurodivergent trekkie.

If they keep it for themselves, yes.

Is it possible you’re thinking of that time Jon Stewart was on Tucker Carlson’s show, rather than vice versa?

I rewatched that episode just this evening, and completely agree; fantastic scene. Dukat is a delightful villain throughout the series, but this is one of his pinnacles of bastardy.

Imaginary Kira supporting his twisted logic was a nice touch, too; “Being reasonable only made us bolder”

I think you mean the embryo; it takes some time after being laid for the zygote inside the egg to develop to the point it could be considered a fetus.

Hi, fat guy here. I can’t speak for others and I certainly don’t know statistically whether or not I represent any kind of majority, but I do know that for me my excessive weight is entirely the result of poor lifestyle decisions.

According to The Insurance Institute for Highway Safety:

A total of 4,714 people died in large truck crashes in 2021, a 17 percent increase compared with 2020. Sixteen percent of these deaths were truck occupants, 68 percent were occupants of cars and other passenger vehicles, and 15 percent were pedestrians, bicyclists or motorcyclists.

That seems extremely unlikely to me.
