Yeah, I sincerely don't get the hogging thing. If you're sweaty, wipe it down when sharing, and if you're feeling generous, pin it back to the other person's weight. (With plates/free weights, a bit more complicated courtesies involved.) But it's just....weird to insist on hogging it.

And, uh, I guess it bears repeating to Larry, so "hitting on women" =/= "harassing people in your sphere of influence"

Gross. Also, what is he talking about here? Like, did Harvard knowingly admit someone who beat a baby to death? Was this some controversy I missed? Or just the mythical anti-woke weirdness of the elite?

How stupid do you think we are?

My better half's great analogy: LLMs are like "Excel skills": helpful if you know how to use it well, counterproductive if you don't, but definitely not "the singularity" or "end of work." Skeptical of really transformative productivity gains, but might eliminate a class of jobs like "bookkeeper."
