  • You’re missing how a bunch of their friends from their new social class already do drugs and how good those drugs feel.

    Easy hole to fall into, but money honestly makes it harder to climb out of, you can always afford the drugs.

    So it becomes the norm, whereas someone at the poverty line with an addiction can’t afford them regularly and has to spend grocery money on them and therefore might be addicted but also resents them.

    Rich people can afford to normalize drugs and consider themselves fine while they’re on them, because they’re still living within their means.





  • Nah that means you can ask an LLM “is this real” and get a correct answer.

    That defeats the point of a bunch of kinds of material.

    Deepfakes, for instance. International espionage, propaganda, companies who want “real people”.

    A simple is_ai checkbox of any kind is undesirable, but those sources will end back up in every LLM, even one that was behaving and flagging its output.

    You’d need every LLM to do this, and there’s open source models, there’s foreign ones. And as has already been proven, you can’t rely on an LLM detecting a generated product without it.

    The correct way to do it would be to instead organize a not-ai certification for real content. But that would severely limit training data. It could happen once quantity of data isn’t the be-all end-all for a model, but I dunno when when or if that’ll be the case.


  • No, because there’s still no case.

    Law textbooks that taught an imaginary case would just get a lot of lawyers in trouble, because someone eventually will wanna read the whole case and will try to pull the actual case, not just a reference. Those cases aren’t susceptible to this because they’re essentially a historical record. It’s like the difference between a scan of the declaration of independence and a high school history book describing it. Only one of those things could be bullshitted by an LLM.

    Also applies to law schools. People do reference back to cases all the time, there’s an opposing lawyer, after all, who’d love a slam dunk win of “your honor, my opponent is actually full of shit and making everything up”. Any lawyer trained on imaginary material as if it were reality will just fail repeatedly.

    LLMs can deceive lawyers who don’t verify their work. Lawyers are in fact required to verify their work, and the ones that have been caught using LLMs are quite literally not doing their job. If that wasn’t the case, lawyers would make up cases themselves, they don’t need an LLM for that, but it doesn’t happen because it doesn’t work.

    I mean, the people in charge of Nintendo now aren’t those people.

    In 50 years, if Microsoft had gone co-op, withdrawn from genocide, removed telemetry, and like half a dozen other things, due to a change in leadership, I’d also not hold that future Microsoft as at fault for current Microsoft.

    I also don’t hold Volkswagen responsible for the Holocaust, presently. Just the emissions fraud (and maybe more that I can’t currently recall).

    See but I’ve never heard Nintendo supporting genocide actively.

    Like, yes, they’re a corporation, they love money, they do stupid things to get money, but they’re not doing nearly the same shit as other companies I hate.

    Or if they are, I haven’t heard of it, it’s all been game key cards.

    The game key card thing feels like a clinton-blowjob level scandal while some other people are doing a whole genocide.

    Am I missing something?








  • Stay with your parents.

    If you can afford to move to a new place on your own with what you make right now, you can afford to put that same money into a savings account. That money in the bank is far more useful if something happens to you, your kid, or your parents. Figure out what you’d pay in a new house, childcare, mortgage, the whole thing, subtracting what you currently pay, and set it aside.

    Also, I assume whatever your dad would’ve given you is some kind of retirement fund, and while that’s very nice of him to offer it, it’d be better for him to still have that later, for all the same reasons it’s good for you to save.

    If it’s not a retirement fund, then it either is in some kind of high interest savings account, or should be. You can take his example or you both can look into that together, and set that up for his current money and your future money.

    Money aside, having family support is worth so much more than it seems. I have a child the same age, too, and the difference between me being able to go do something, anything, from see a movie to shop to go on a date with my wife, and be able to leave my kid at home and know she’s in good hands, it’s worth so much more than it seems like it should be. My advice is even if you decide to move out, do it when your kid is more independent, and you have an even better financial situation.
