Last year Pakistan had a war against India, and this year they've had a war against Afghanistan, and that's the normal Pakistan government's way. Their government is controlled by the military.

There was a case where five guys were eating LSD while one was driving. Their emotions synced up so closely that one of them needed to pee, but none of them knew who it was (because they all felt it).
It's not really that surprising, if you walk in a room and everyone is happy, you will feel happy too.

oner also elaborated on why the board, including herself, voted to remove Altman as CEO in 2023. "There were a number of things -- the pattern of behavior related to his honesty and candor, his resistance of board oversight, as well as the concerns that two os his inner management team raised to the board about his management practices, his manipulation of board processes,"
That's a long way to say, "We fired him to get his stock."

It seems obvious that psychedelics would change your brain, but it's good to have it verified because finally now we can legally look at the results with an MRI.
I woke up this morning and Pakistan was making strong efforts towards world peace. I feel like I'm in an alternate reality.

If you steal the works instead of acquiring them legally, that's not fair use.
The penalty for downloading a single copy is much, much smaller than the penalty for distributing it to millions of users. Facebook can pay the fine for torrenting a few copies.
IF Facebook gets penalized for downloading, they're cool with that. If they get penalized for distributing, it's a much bigger problem.

The problem is whether the AI "learning" is analagous to "learning" in the human sense.
It's not. At least, under the law computers are not treated the same as humans; particularly copyright law.
The law may or may not match reality.

Nicaragua isn't going to become unlivable and anyway Nicaraguans mostly emigrate to El Salvador or Costa Rica if they do emigrate.

A GOP operative once said Americans have a 2 year memory. I thought that was too short but I think he was probably correct.
When it was Clinton vs Trump it felt like voters had a two week memory.

Think about the swing voters. The ones that there is a chance they will vote for either party. To them the Dems run sane, well spoke, somewhat reasonable candidates.
I don't think that's been true since Obama.
