Bias is possible on any topic. How do you know Epstein's claims are false? Can you debunk a single one with evidence?

You can ask "qui bono?" about people who believe the Climate Change narrative as well. For example, here's $5 billion allocated to this sort of thing: https://www.epa.gov/inflation-reduction-act/climate-p

Why not show the arguments and allow the debate to happen? Maybe we'd all learn something.

This sharp rise of global CO2 level, combined with the small rise in global temperature of 1 degree F over the past 100 years [1], is evidence against the idea that CO2 is a greenhouse gas. [1] https://www.google.com/search?

I'm surprised that no one here disagreeing with him seems able to muster a non-ad-hominem argument against what he's saying.

You think it's not true? Just ask Google: https://www.google.com/search?q=how+much+has+the+global+temp... . It says "about 1.0o F" in the past 100 years, so not even as much as Epstein is saying.

It seems like the enshittification life cycle directly results from the involvement of venture funding, since it requires the infusion of capital to allow operating at a loss in the beginning, baiting users onto the platform while killing o

Oh I see. I wonder if he will be allowed to settle, as Hillary Clinton's team did for "intentionally obscuring their payments through Perkins Coie and failing to publicly disclose the true purpose of those payments" with the

Oh, this is interesting. By the same reasoning, would a grand jury indict companies who pay former employees they fired not to speak ill of them?

The "Ask Libraria" text field doesn't let me type anything. I tried it with Chrome and Safari on a Mac. Is this intentional?

What would be involved in retraining a GPT to not have guardrails if you have the parameters? Seems like you could feed it input you care about and have it generate lots of training data to prevent botching what's already there.

Kiss your productivity goodbye. Emacs has lots of half-baked features that you'll be tempted to fix with its LISP dialect. It's so much fun to tinker that you'll wonder where your day went. The $20 I spend every month on my J

My dog loves eating the faeces of other animals, including those of my cats. I suspect the reason is to boost his gut flora and keep him healthy for longer than he otherwise would be.
