You have it backwards. The IDF are carrying out a genocide. So an analogy to the WWII-era would be like if Cab Calloway chanted 'Death, Death to the Nazi SS' , and then you're comment (on our fictional 1940's internet forum) would say "Cmon guys, this seems problematic because it can easily expand to target all German people".

They're literally building skynet: WTF MATE

If you can, self-host your LLM's in something like LM Studio (requires a pretty good GPU though)

Claude is run by Anthropic who, unfortunately, is also working with Palantir and the fascists. source: SOURCE

also: PhD's are often funded positions where the student receives a stipend - not something where significant tuition is paid (not always, of course). Master's degrees can cost a bundle, but not every PhD program requires a Master's beforehand. The biggest loss (again, not every case) is in loss of income that would have been gained if one had immediately entered the workforce after BS or MS.

I’m getting a PhD because I like to learn and I want to learn all I can about the physical phenomena around me - I would hope we could start thinking of higher education as more than just job training.

Hey I read this book in high school

Every.Fucking.Day.

This is why I make it abundantly clear to people who ask me about my college choices that i am going to college to LEARN - not for job training. I am willing to pay money to people to teach me new things. I am NOT willing to pay money to get trained to do a job for someone else.

sorry to be the AKTUALLY guy, but the term '2nm process' does not actually mean that ANY part of the device is actually 2nm in length, it is just a marketing term.

"Yes, Bobby is a Nazi, but it's just how he was raised!'

There was a scandal in the US where bodies being donated to ‘science’ were used for munitions testing by the us military. So the “who receives said body” is very important.

I’m on the ONS site and there’s mountains of publications and data on Covid. Which publication did they read?

"Our default behavior for the general public will intentionally err on the side of caution, by training models to provide high-level insights that support expert understanding while withholding sufficient detail to prevent novice misuse." --- So users have to have a premium subscription for bioweapons development assistance?

Every.Fucking.Day.

I can't wait for the CIA funded war films where we get to feel sorry for the PTSD-ridden us troops that just HAD to slaughter innocent iranian civilians. ya know, for freedom.

As mentioned in other comments - the tax deduction thing is not true. It is true, however, that they can ''donate' the funds to a charitable foundation that is run by the same people as the company (i.e. they are on the board of the charity as well as being C-suite execs of the company) thereby creating a slush fund disguised as charity that may only need to actually use 5% for charitable activities.

This ^ I have to sanity check with my partner sometimes (after work or whatever) just to confirm that we both can see the american reich is currently taking shape all around us, and that we are not crazy for thinking this.

I modded it with the 'no purchasable resources' and it became a totally different game; It was all spreadsheet/logistics and organizing galaxy wide shipping to central hubs where I had to fabricate all my own materials to be able to upgrade equipment. I found that far more enjoyable, but the game is still meh. Not worth the replays like skyrim was.
