I don’t know…I think even if someone was really interested in something like organic chemistry or biochem, unless they had a very very abnormal memory they’d get wrecked on an exam without studying. I used SRS when studying for OChem and go

Because normal people are using the term as a short-hand. It doesn’t seem especially useful to lump everyone from coffee drinkers to people using antibiotics to people shooting up fentanyl all together, so I don’t really see the point in in

No, it’s because city politics in the US are dominated by naive bleeding-heart type leftists who are willing to overlook any and all forms of antisocial behavior if it’s committed by a poor and/minority individual.

Idk why you screeching AI touts are so confident about its ‘wild’ success in all areas given absolutely zero evidence to that effect. It’s tiresome.

Doubt. How much money has been pumped into these products, to produce slightly coding tools? Despite what the AI boosters keep screaming, these tools are absolute shit at anything outside programming. I highly doubt they will stick around
