You want to save your PR points for the genocide, y’know?

This is definitely part of the issue, not sure why people are downvoting this. That’s also why tests like this are important, to illustrate that thinking in the way we know it isn’t happening in these models.

There are a lot of people out there that think LLM’s are somehow reasoning. Even reasoning models aren’t really doing it. It important to do demonstrations like this in the hopes that the general public will understand the limitations of this tech.

Interesting, I didn’t find this info. Gonna go research now.

Does all this even matter after the courts overturned the tariffs?

Read the post. I said paying people to do it should be illegal. I don’t say organizing should be illegal.

There’s only one Jeff Bezos. If he can’t hire people, it’s only what he can do himself in his spare time. We greatly outnumber him, even if we are only doing it in our spare time.

You can form groups without paying people. This ensures people actually care about the cause rather than just doing it for the money.

Banning lobbying isn’t banning organizing. It’s banning rich people being able to put their giant thumbs on the levers of democracy.

I think that if it was impossible to get paid for it, they could just petition the government themselves and get a lot better results. Lobbying will always tilt the field in the direction of people with more money over those with less.

I believe the ACLU mostly fields lawsuits against those doing the oppression. But my feeling is that lobbying is on balance such a negative force fielded 95% by the ultra wealthy to further their agenda, that I’d be okay with losing the other 5% that had a positive impact. Those causes could easily be taken up by individuals and unfunded groups and have a much better chance of getting heard.

Anyone making money to lobby government should be thrown in jail.

As someone who has to file every year though I haven’t lived there for a quarter century, this is true. But I still pay $1000 a year and considerable time for US tax prep.

Yeah as an American that’s basically what I’ve been saying for the last 20 years. Now we are at the part where the worse results either become apparent or we lose our democracy.

keeping them out and the win in the courts is a start.

It’s been a good run lately, we’ve eked out wins in Germany, France, Canada, Australia, Croatia, and Romania

We love you Stamets. Women want you, men want to be like you.

There are always stupid people. If someone like Russia is allowed to intentionally manipulate them, they can be made into puppets.

Russian influence.
