It's that nobody gives a fuck about children. I mean except Trump but that's the wrong kind of fuck...

So that you don't understand how anything works over here but social security and Medicare are basically pension programs for our elderly and extremely disabled.

You pay into them and you get out of them.

Now like a lot of pension programs they have a problem in that they are pyramid shaped. They are designed for either having a lot more people or having a lot of people with higher wages or both.

And of course we have been slashing American wages so people don't have kids anymore creating a double whammy in our pension program.

This is all easily fixable by paying better wages. Which of course comes out of the billionaire's pockets but seeing as how you're shilling for them I could understand why it would upset you.

What I can't understand is why you're shilling for billionaires on this dying website. Is somebody paying you for this? Because it would be sad if you were doing it for free...

You need that many people when you're running a particularly nasty little scam.

Bill Gates is foundation does not exist to spend his money on charity. If it did then he would have given away the covid vaccine patents that the charity held.

The Gates foundation exists to whitewash his image so we all forget how much of a complete total bastard he was and always will be as well as to protect his fortune and power.

You do not get charity from billionaires. You beg them for the right to exist.

I would bet money that they have several people who are involved in covering up Bill gates's behavior and they're doing a large number of layoffs so that it's not obvious to a journalist which ones are being fired for that reason.

This way they can preemptively distance themselves from the people involved in the cover-up while giving those people time to cover their tracks.

It doesn't matter how obvious it is that Trump is an incompetent boob they will never know because in order to avoid facing that fact they hide out in safe spaces where Trump doesn't get criticized.

I'm sure you've noticed it. If you post something about Trump you don't get modded down immediately anymore and you don't get a bunch of idiots screaming tds. You get a couple of very obvious llm bots running off of people's gpus, they'll be one of them under this comment if it gets modded up, and that's it.

Trump supporters will not hang out anywhere that the mods don't protect them. They have become extremely fragile and protective of their egos

Was to bribe him in the hopes of getting juicy government contracts like what Elon Musk got. You can get a pardon from Trump for a couple million bucks but I think if you want nice big juicy government contracts you're going to have to match what muskrat brings to the table and that was a quarter billion dollars of campaign funds.

In other news, the president of the United States accepted a quarter billion dollar bribe in addition to several billion dollars worth of bribes for pardons and literally nobody cares.

I'm sure this is fine.

Most of the deaths are explainable.

• Amy Catherine Eskridge died by suicide in 2022. The cause of death was a single gunshot to the head. Her activities leading up to her death are suggestive of mental health struggles, though they're used by some people as evidence of a conspiracy leading to her death.
• Michael David Hicks died in June 2023, age 59. He worked at JPL on comet and asteroid missions. No cause of death was released.
• Frank Maiwald died in July 2024, age 61. He worked at JPL on planetary missions. No cause of death was released.
• Anthony Chavez has been missing since May 2025. He was 78 when he disappeared. He left his wallet, keys, and cigarettes on a table at home, a common action right before a suicide.
• Melissa Casias has been missing since June 2025. She was an administrative worker at Los Alamos and held no security clearance. She was last seen walking down a street. She had left her keys, wallet, purse, and both work and personal phones at home after telling colleagues that she was going to work from home. Shoes similar to those she was wearing were recently found in a nearby forest. This also lines up with a possible suicide.
• Monica Reza has been missing since June 2025. She worked at JPL in California, and went missing during a hiking trip. Her hiking companion said she was there one minute and gone the next. A fall is a much more likely event than an abduction.
• Steven Garcia has been missing since August 2025. He worked at the Kansas City National Security Campus in Albuquerque. He was last seen walking away from his phone carrying a gun and had left behind his wallet, phone, and keys. As with others above, this is a common behavior of suicidal people.
• Nuno Lureiro was killed on his doorstep by the Brown University shooter in December 2025. Motive hasn't been established, but the shooter left a recording that he had planned both shootings for years.
• Jason Thomas went missing in December 2025 for three months before his body was found in March 2026. He was last seen walking along railroad tracks, another frequent precursor for suicides. A cause of death doesn't seem to have been released so far, but law enforcement said that they don't suspect foul play.
• Retired Air Force Maj. Gen. Neil McCasland has been missing since February 2026. He was last seen on a neighborhood surveillance camera with hiking boots and a .38 revolver. He had left behind his wallet, phone, and wearable devices. Many suicides start the same way.
• Carl Johann Grillmair was killed at his home in February 2026. He was a prominent astronomer and astrophysicist. A suspect has been arrested and has been charged in his murder, which may have happened after an argument.

One suicide (Eskridge), one likely suicide (McCasland), four possible suicides (Chavez, Casias, Garcia, and Thomas), two murders (Lureiro and Grillmair), two other deaths (Hicks and Maiwald), and one missing (Reza). Neither of the murders are linked. Reza may have simply fallen while hiking and been severely injured or killed. The two other deaths were both in the age range where sudden deaths start to become unfortunately common.

It's a bad thing when you're raising $1.5 trillion in capital. You raise capital to grow a business. If the business can't grow that's a scam. The investors will lose their money. There won't be enough revenue to sustain that valuation.

The answer is obvious: the manufacturer of the US's expensive missiles.

SS and Medicare come from a completely different tax pool. It's not part of the main budget. You're spouting weasel words.

SpaceX is a scam. The too long didn't watch is they don't have any more customers. There aren't any more launch customers besides muskrat's own satellite internet company and there is a limited pool of people who can afford high-speed internet but that don't have landlines. The service is too unreliable to be used in a military setting and as soon as there isn't a favorable administration for Musk he's going to lose his government contracts because he has actively interfered in international conflict making him a national security risk.

You can't be a defense contractor if you're going to fuck with the military when it's suits you.

All of this means that SpaceX is already at its maximum value and they are seeking 1.5 trillion.

Mark my words they will dump that into your 401k.

Trump is already loosened rules around putting bad stock in your 401k. At first if you are really paying attention and one of those fancy sophisticated investors you will be able to catch when they do it. Your company will gradually sneak dodgy index funds into your portfolio but you're smart so you will catch them doing it and stop them right? Right?

So you're not one of those other suckers but here's the thing they will go after the low hanging fruit first and when they have exhausted them they will come for you and they will change the rules again. Eventually you're going to find that your options are locked down and your money is just evaporating and there's nothing you can do about it.

Basically better start picking out your favorite flavor of cat food for your retirement

Yeah but the people who banged on about how Doom was the problem got a lot of press out of it and some of them built entire careers out of it.

That's what this is about. He knows damn well they are covered by section 230 of the cda, and as much as the right wing would love to strike that down so that they could finish taking over the internet this isn't going to be the case that does it.

He is just after a bit of press and a little bit of think of the children bullshit.

So you prompt the LLM to "find all the bugs".

Even if the LLM can find every last bug (which in turn assumes that this type of problem isn't NP-hard or has some issue that Godel would point out), just defining to the LLM exactly what a "bug" is seems to be pretty much the same thing as those formal specifications that you just convincingly dismissed as inadequate.

I don't think that there's anything magical about LLMs that would let them get around fundamental mathematical roadblocks.

Stage 3 smog alerts were year-round when I was a kid in the 1980s. They were more common in the summer, but they could happen any time the temperatures rose, and they were a fact of life at school in the spring and fall. I spent a lot of recess and PE time indoors for Stage 2 and 3 alerts. This page shows the number of days at different air qualities for Los Angeles going back to 1980. The highest number of good air quality days was 11 in 1983. For all but two of the remaining years, it was in single digits. The combined number of unhealthy, very unhealthy, and dangerous days usually covered a cumulative six months or so out of the year.

You can see the numbers shifting to the left starting in 1989. Both Republicans and Democrats in the state government (which was run by Republicans at the time) had authorized various government agencies to make changes that would affect smog levels. Since 2002, the number of moderate or good air days has covered at least half of the year, a huge reversal from the 1980s. The number of very unhealthy or dangerous air days has been in the single digits every year (bar one) since 2007, even reaching zero in 2010 and 2013 and only one in six of the other years.

There are a bunch of billionaires, going on trillionaires, working to that goal. If we get to that point money doesn't matter anymore any more than money mattered to the kings.

Basically we are looking at the end of capitalism without socialism replacing it. Instead you will have a hereditary class of kings and queens, and they will have a handful of engineers to keep everything running and a handful of violent thugs to keep the engineers in line and to occasionally exterminate the masses of they become a problem.
