Glad this report includes Hawaii. Many studies leave us out. (Probably so we didn't throw off their model, we're such an outlier.)

No, I'm just pointing out that we have to assume something about their politics before we can draw conclusions about election outcomes.

"Population shift to red states means a red shift for House & Electoral College."
Does it? These %s are so large that if these people vote blue from their new home they might swing the districts they move into.

Former federal employee here. My 2 years working for the Chief Data Officer of HHS were mainly spent figuring out how to share data legally and responsibly between agencies to advance medical research and respond capably to a future pandemic.
Everything described here is flagrantly illegal.

I agree. I think I'm as scared as you are of people substituting output for thought. It's so hard to vet research assistants these days, for instance! But I still see a way to use them responsibly and get more done. That's all I came to say.

Thanks for sharing. I'd be much more cautious about a complex app in production. But for prototyping or for building and running small programs locally, it's working for me

Maybe this is where a lot of professional resistance comes from. There are good applications and bad ones, but management usually tries the bad ones.

Not a lawyer, but I think they have a very good fair use argument. Reminds me of the Google Books case, which was a big deal back when I worked in libraries.

It takes a while to configure it, learn what it can and can't do, which models to use for what, what context to add, how to prompt, etc. But for EDA it works great.
The hallucinations were definitely there in earlier models, but 4o with Search usually cites properly.

I analyze data for a living. I vibe code thousands of lines a month and am getting 3x as much done as before. For me, it's transformational.

High time for Dem haymaking:
- "they knew"

- are other appointees
"flight risk", "reckless endangerment", "sacred trust", "right to know", etc etc
