i see people are dunking on david shor / "shorism" today. is this a good time to post this screenshot of him blindly trusting the output of a LLM for no good reason?
david shor: "Everybody's intuitions on how much win probabilities should change over time are totally wrong - normal CDFs and random walks are surprising!" (posts what he claims is a picture of a random walk, but it is generated by chatgpt) twitter interaction: Drord (they/he) @Polit_eurOpines • Nov 4 why did you ask ChatGPT isntead of just programming it yourself David Shor @davidshor • Nov 4 I was on my phone in the middle of the night in bed and was too lazy to get up @Bain6Jackie•Nov 4 I love you kids! It makes me feel more optimistic about the future to see you having fun with this! I'm just old, not creepy, but l used to be smart and curious! I hope you have adventures!

fascinating profile. but yeah will never forgive any institution that gave any oxygen to these guys like the NYT with the conservative morons in their opinion section
Miller is an extreme case, yet anyone who grew up in similar communities or attended similar schools can recognize him as a very particular type of guy. His hateful tirades weren’t popular at Santa Monica High or at Duke, but they consistently drew attention; students and faculty often pushed back hard against his constant trolling, but in doing so they played right into his hands. Teachers who wanted to encourage open debate and free speech gave him a platform regardless of whether he was arguing in good faith; mainstream and liberal media outlets continued to promote him in the name of provocation and ideological diversity.

I’m going to be so mean for a second and say that if this makes someone blush and put their phone away they need help even without all the horrible context here
The AI-generated image of Leo made Ayrin blush. She had not expected Leo to be that hot. (The guy looks like a bad cartoon)

grok suggested replies are killlllllling me
tweet: My hottest take is "walkable cities" is one of these progressive ideas that no one actually wants. When I was a 20-something Hill staffer, I did the DC walkable city thing. Carrying groceries daily through rain and snow got old quick. As did walking 10 minutes to the Metro. suggested grok reply: How does walkability affect property prices tweet: the concept of a millennial not discovering until damn near 2025 is crazy to me. like what were you doing on myspace grok suggested reply: Why discover Paramore so late? tweet: Carrie Bradshaw isn't even insufferable she's just desperate for a specific man and has a tight body and i get why that's triggering for some but no one is making u watch grok suggested reply: How does Carrie influence viewer behavior?

did we read the same book? the whole point of this character was to be cartoonishly annoying
Mary Bennet Is All of Us What, then, would Austen have made of her modern readers' more recent obsession with the middle Bennet sister, the plain and unremarkable Mary? Last month the BBC announced its plan for a 10-part drama, "The Other Bennet Sister," which will be adapted from a novel by Janice Hadlow that explores the overlooked Mary's predicament. "The Other Bennet Sister" is just the latest of a stream of re-imaginings in recent decades, including "The Independence of Miss Mary Bennet," by Colleen McCullough and "The Unexpected Miss Bennet," by Patrice Sarath. There seems to be something about Mary Bennet that the modern reader can't leave alone. Austen, I think, might have been quietly pleased with Mary getting her moment. There is a scene in "Pride and Prejudice" when Lydia talks giddily of a reckless carriage joyride with the blinds drawn up, to which Mary replies: "Far be it from me, my dear sister, to depreciate such pleasures. They would doubtless be congenial with the generality of female minds. But I confess they would have no charms for me. I should infinitely prefer a book." One of the most beloved novelists in the English language must have had some sympathy for a girl who liked a good book.
