Apparently you can do Kung Fu and still be an asshole.

You need to be able to use them judiciously, after you're already an expert in doing everything by hand.

Watching someone who is already an expert use an LLM vs watching someone who thinks they can outsource everything to an LLM is like watching a monkey trying to fuck a football.

Sounds about right.

They'll probably close as well as they did with using the shutdown as leverage to keep healthcare.

So, not well.

Why not just have the government build houses?

You know, like they used to?

Have you met us?

We elected Donald Trump TWICE. There are a group of people who want to canonize Charlie Kirk. We're bringing back Measles, and building a $200M ballroom in the White House while we cancel cancer research for kids.

Are you SURE we're not a stupid people?

Lotta boot licking un-American MAGA dipshits in the comments here talking about laws.

I'll believe they care about laws when all the J6'ers go back to prison, the Epstein files are released, and Trump's illegal crypto/Hatch act violations are enforced and he's sent to prison.

Oh not THOSE laws! /s

"The people's house" - Oh you definitely have a $200M ballroom in your house, RIGHT?

NO? What "people" is this for?

It's now the "Oligarch's manor", not the "people's house".

A $200M ballroom is definitely bringing down the price of groceries, too! Awesome.

WHERE IS OUR SINGLE PAYER HEALTHCARE IN CALIFORNIA?

They'll just stand outside and light the whole thing on fire, just to be sure.

I don't give a fuck if we win the AI race because we don't have healthcare, and have US troops being deployed at home.

We have other problems than the mystical belief that AI will somehow make Bezos and Thiel infinite money under technofeudalism.

You mention protecting reality, but have you heard of Kayfabe? It's the "willing suspension of disbelief".

You're not dealing with people who want to project, not protect, reality. I'm not even sure what the answer is, but I'm 100% sure it won't help MAGA.

Doesn't this just move all the power to "who decides the experts"? It just shifts the problem, not solves it.

Besides, is it really egalitarian if a third party tells you your beliefs are bad because the expert disagrees? It sounds more elitist than egalitarian.

You could go without insurance, save the 25k a year, and take a flight to somewhere with functional healthcare system.

Like at that point, it's so much money it doesn't make sense to be covered. Might as well take your chances.
