I’m starting to notice a subtler effect where non-techie heavy LLM users are subtly anthropomorphising it as some kind of genius friend and get angry/defensive about any mention of limitations/problems (as if you’re insulting a close friend or admired colleague)

Jamaica, in particular, will likely suffer catastrophic impacts from now rapidly-intensifying (but slow-moving) Hurricane #Melissa. A *Category 5* landfall now appears to be the most likely outcome, & 30-40+ inches of *additional* rain in mountains will lead to extreme flooding.

Official graphic depicting potential rainfall from Melissa in the Carribbean from the National Hurricane Center. Over 30-40 inches may locally fall in the mountains of Jamaica. Note that additional rainfall may fall, beyond indicated here, outside of the 4 day window mentioned.

Redditor asks how things are looking at strip clubs, a known indicator of economic downturn. The answers are pretty bleak (albeit not all responses are from strippers)

Not a stripper, but my dive bar is down $50,000 compared to this time last year, and my booze is cheap. We're fucked if alcoholics aren't drinking.

I've worked in the industry for years. It's been bad for the last three years now and continuing to get worse.
Prior to covid, at my club you could expect a ratio of 5 or 6 customers per girl. Since covid it dropped to 1 to 1 or worse. And not just my club but the whole area. The first couple years after covid money got stupid good but that all dried up a few years ago.
Previously when the industry slowed, the girls would bounce to other clubs and eventually come back after a month or two. However, girls are now leaving the industry entirely

My earnings have definitely declined in the past year.
I'm still doing okay because of my past regulars but they're coming in less as well. Tourism is down in my state. It isn't great. It isn't my only source of income but l'd be struggling a bit if it was.

It's bad. Real bad. Worse than it was in 2008, and that's saying something.
I stopped by my old club last week and the manager said they made more money during Covid.

Left the industry entirely this year, after the past 3 years of decreasing pay with no bounce back at all.
Most dancers at the last place I worked were lucky to leave with $200 at the end of a shift, at this point.
We're not getting naked for warehouse pay, ladies and gentlemen. The only women that are left are there because they have no other options at all.
Everyone with an option is gone. The money is gone.
Our clients no longer have enough money for the club and many dancers have a second job now.
