I'm an atheist, so in one sense I have no horse in this race. But while there's no denying the Church hierarchy protected pedophiles, and for a lot longer than even many Catholics would like to believe, it's not a central tenet of the Catholic faith. The Trinity, the Immaculate Conception, the Theokotos, the Ascension, Papal Infallibility when speaking ex cathedra, and the soteriological nature of the Church, those are core tenets.

And so is Matthew 7:5, which is in Catholic and in most Christian traditions the very heart of Christian ethics.

You're making a claim identical to the one made during the Satanic Panic against D&D and heavy metal. If you have some evidence that ChatGPT is any greater facilitator of the mentally ill than FM radio or orange juice, do please provide it.

Imagine being downvoted for posting "judge not lest ye be judged."

I'm having a hard time parsing what about my post you have object to.

You mean the way people have been entering the US since a pack of religious fanatics showed up in Plymouth Bay. And just what problems does this cause in your view and how are those problems worse than, say, climate change, ground water contamination and over extraction?

It's all down to the Lunar DEI hires. In fact it's DEI that killed the dinosaurs.

They said that about D&D and Judas Priest when I was growing up. You see, people a fucking idiots and easily frightened, so are easily convinced that playing a wizard in a dice game or listening to Rob Halford sing will cause young folks to kill babies and drink their blood.

Did I mention that people are fucking idiots? I don't think you can say that enough times.

A moral panic just wouldn't be complete without invoking Satan worship.

Or, as I like to say, people are pathetic fucking morons who get scared of pointless, ineffectual and in some cases non-existent things, while actually tangible crises unfold.

Actually, he forgot a foundational Catholic/Christian value:

"Do not judge, or you too will be judged. For in the same way you judge others, you will be judged, and with the measure you use, it will be measured to you. Why do you look at the speck of sawdust in your brother’s eye and pay no attention to the plank in your own eye? How can you say to your brother, ‘Let me take the speck out of your eye,’ when all the time there is a plank in your own eye? You hypocrite, first take the plank out of your own eye, and then you will see clearly to remove the speck from your brother’s eye."
Matthew 7:1-5

I'm no Christian, not even the least bit religious, but there has seldom been a better proclamation of charity and forgiveness than this passage from Matthew.

The only sin that's anyone's business is that the CEO was having an intimate relationship with a subordinate, and the only people that matters to is their coworkers, the board and the shareholders.

1. The coworkers, because these kinds of relationships can actually be very demoralizing. Even the perception of favoritism, whether real or not, has a terrible effect on everyone else.
2. The board because it is their fiduciary duty to protect the company's reputation and eliminate to whatever extent possible any liability that can come from such a relationship (superiors having intimate relationships with subordinates opens up a number of issues surrounding sexual coercion and the risks involved if the relationship turns sour).
3. The shareholders, because reputational harm and lawsuits can negatively impact their investment.

Nowhere in there is your tender sensibilities a consideration, beyond the very limited context that you might be a customer or advertiser who might get turned off. Even if that's true, being self-righteous and vicariously inferring your superior morality largely erases that, and as a Catholic, I'm sure it's at this juncture that you should ponder your Savior's own words at Matthew 7:5 before you delight in building yourself up on an Internet forum at the expense of fellow human beings that made a sad and not terribly uncommon error in judgment.

For myself, I actually feel very sorry for them. Beyond the damage to their reputations and careers, they are human beings just like me, capable of great joy and then great humiliation and shame, and for them, this awful coupling, even if completely their own responsibility, all happened while the rest of the world decided amongst all the real and tangible problems, to mock them. I viscerally hate it when anyone is publicly humiliated, even if they are entirely responsible for the humiliation.

So in other words, her winning would have been materially better.

Per Delta, the AI pricing isn't individualized, meaning all customers buying the same class of service at a given time will see the same price, so I don't think that would get you anything, unless maybe your AI agent gets good at predicting when exactly you should buy your ticket, but that seems unlikely because your agent will always be operating with less information than theirs (e.g., yours doesn't know exactly how many seats are already sold).

I find that it works well to treat current-generation AI agents like bright, incredibly fast but overenthusiastic and incautious junior engineers who do not learn from their mistakes. They can be extremely useful, but you have to be careful to limit the damage they can do if they happen to screw up.

I don't think anyone struggling to afford health insurance -- especially now that insurance can't deny pre-existing conditions -- is shelling out $20k for bleach injections. It would be much cheaper to get an individual healthcare policy and get it to pay for proper chemo.

Such a society would not elect Donald Trump as President.
