Seattleite, mentally ill, just wanting to make the world a little better.
I've seen several papers on LLMs being pretty good at doing microscope tasks, including some vague memories of the machines performing better than humans on them.

There's also the "AI is natural language processing" vibe that would simplify the absolute shit show of medical software right now.

Like why is there a single mention of social housing in this?????????????

This is a subtweet of the Washington State Legislature's Joint Transportation Committee and of the Washington State Legislature's Joint Transportation Committee only.

Trump is in control of the West's primary hegemon. That's precisely why there needs to be divided power within NATO and a greater ability for IGOs to demand their members give support when essential. Dispersion is essential.

Yes, but the requirement to rely on a few hegemons to be the backstop to that is how you can get Ukraine and Europe on their back feet when the United States suggest just giving all the way to Lviv to Russia.

Again. I did not say give up every bomb, but right sizing the US military to allow us to work in concert with others would reduce our incursions into other nations' affairs while cooling off the military-industrial complex's power over US politics, diplomacy, and our economy.

9/11 was done to say get your bases out of Saudi Arabia. Obviously not the outcome ObL wanted in the end, but our bases in Okinawa and elsewhere have a tendency to attract negative feelings toward our nation while providing targets without having to cross our buffer oceans.

The United States serves as the world's unilateral police force, between the Red and South China Seas in particular.

A reduction in the US as a base-holder in exchange for greater IGO peacekeeping organizations would return greater sovereignty to those nations while reducing annoying US targets.

Very excited for the sole person that openly voted to fuck multiple nephews' jobs over to ask that at Christmas and ignite the war.

Love searching felching to find out why it's trending and being relieved that at least it wasn't MAHA using it as its new reason for hate crimes against some subset of the queer community.

There's a reason I was a groomsman for a Manitoban and not their evil cousins (it was the Pikmin murder and none of the other stuff).

I don't know what part of town you're in, but I've honestly found that the gyms in my part of Seattle are pleasant to go to and have been a solid part of my routine for months.

The value is in having the ability to ask questions where people are still solitary but willing to help.

Sitting watching a video about an organism that doesn't need ATP with all the energy and correctness of the friend that screamed that the Russian revolution slogan was Peace, Love, Bread in senior history.
