Can we say the same about Trump?

Ah, Israel is using human shields? I’m sure every government was quick to condemn them

But MBFC is telling me they’re all centre-left, so that must be true

you’re getting the secret achievement with this, for sure

That’s not what I said? I was making a point about how not having children isn’t in the same category as going vegan, when it comes to emission reductions.

I’ve personally been vegan for years.

Not having children can also at best have a net zero impact. If we’re taking opportunity costs for future actions into account, the single highest reduction in emissions for an individual is to die.

In day to day life, veganism has the single highest impact. Still, I’ll never have (non -adopted) children, emissions are a part of it, but mostly because I don’t want to bring someone into the world that’s so thoroughly fucked at the moment

He’s really good. I’m torn on the subject because the current AI hype is most certainly a bubble and a grift, but I find the technology fascinating. I do think there’s potential for great things there, but the technology is almost exclusively in the hands of 3 companies and will have a terrible impact on everyone else. I enjoy just focusing on the technical details every once in a while

I follow a YouTube channel, AI explained, that has some pretty grounded analysis of the latest models and capabilities. He compared LLMs to the creative writing center of the brain, as in they’re really nice to interact with, output things that sound correct, but ultimately are missing the capabilities of reasoning and factuality that are needed for AGI

Which game is it?

Buy it yourself, get over 100, cash out

I think a more efficient tactic would be to, once a month, execute the person with the highest net worth. Billionaires would be scrambling to get rid of their money

After adjusting for potential confounders, accessing GAH during early adolescence (aOR = 0.4, 95% CI = 0.2-0.6, p < .0001), late adolescence (aOR = 0.5, 95% CI = 0.4-0.7, p < .0001), or adulthood (aOR = 0.8, 95% CI = 0.7-0.8, p < .0001) was associated with lower odds of past-year suicidal ideation when compared to desiring but never accessing GAH. In post hoc analyses, access to GAH during adolescence (ages 14-17) was associated with lower odds of past-year suicidal ideation (aOR = 0.7, 95% CI = 0.6-0.9, p = .0007) when compared to accessing GAH during adulthood.

Okay you’re just straight up lying now. I’m done here, piss off.

No one is saying that it will be deadly, always. What depriving a trans person from gender affirming care does is make them miserable, drive them towards unhealthy coping mechanism and raises suicidality.

The evidence is neutral at best, yeah?

There’s also a meta review, that, while saying that more rigorous research is needed, says

Of the 23 studies that met the inclusion criteria, the majority indicated a reduction in suicidality following gender-affirming treatment

So, stop lying.

I find it disturbing how many people here condemn or “both sides” her when all she did was refuse to distribute flyers advocating to take lifesaving medical care away from her child

Any halfways decent parent would’ve done the same. These bigots want to see her child dead or suffering, she is under no obligation to do their work for them

That is just straight up false. Stop spreading hateful misinformation.

Many such cases

Even then, the difference between 20 and 2000 characters is negligible
