The worst part about Trump being president is Trump being president for a year. The second worst part is Vance being president for the next three (after Trump dies of heart failure). The third worst part is the fact that I've been owned in a way I can't even explain to my closest friends.

so the short answer is the model most likely made the numbers up

Right crime, wrong perp. The Google overview "correctly" sourced the IQ scores from one of Arthur Jensen's "studies" where he reports the IQ of every country in the world and fully makes up numbers for over a third of them

Does the (straight) CEO not realize how easy it is to get laid off Grindr? It's an Ok Cupid-style grid, and there's a profile flag you can set that literally says "yes please, send me NSFW pics". You can literally send you hole/pole to everyone who would want to see it in a 3 mile radius

I wanted to see how much lactose was in Monterey Jack, and this was the very first result on bing for:

monterey jack lactose per 10 grams

https://thekitchencommunity.org/the-nutritional-profile-of-monterey-jack-cheese/

It's absolutely over. This is why every other search I make has "site:reddit.com" attached to it.

And no, the site didn't tell me how much lactose there was per gram

Does everyone else see this? These are the exact type of out of town haters we really want. I also think calling LLMs all but delusional is too generous and I mean that unironically.

What the fuck any of this mean? What could this be in response to? Was there a bogo deal on $5 words?

Also he used to be u/imaxblue. 3 years ago today this man was making 2 sentence horror stories, posting pictures of his dratini plush, and speaking in uwu xd talk. All while decrying wokism on his substack.

The craziest part is that this is just every tenth guy on the web right now. Man I used to be terminally online, but every time I see the newest micro celebrity I feel like I'm in freak central.

Proof (he links his substack): https://www.reddit.com/r/uwaterloo/comments/kl4oz0/well_yes_i_am_an_expert_in_epidemiology/gh6vfiz/?context=3

Begging the question is a fallacy in which the premise of an argument presupposes the truth of its conclusion; in other words, the argument takes for granted what it's supposed to prove.

In Critical Thinking (2008), William Hughes and Jonathan Lavery offer this example of question-begging: "Morality is very important, because without it people would not behave according to moral principles."

Used in this sense, the word beg means "to avoid," not "ask" or "lead to." Begging the question is also known as a circular argument, tautology, and petitio principii (Latin for "seeking the beginning").
