  • I agree, it's better is some states than others -right now-. But any state you move to has the chance that it will elect a GOP governor and legislature and become the next bad place. I don't see a single state in the nation that is so blue that it is guaranteed to stay that way for the foreseeable future. Unlike abortion, no state has trans-rights in their constitution.

  • That is literally the job of the Associated Press. They republish press-releases across publications. At this point, most press releases are written by AI at least in part, so I'm not sure a further summary would be helpful.

  • This is the US supreme Court so there's nowhere for us to go. No country on Earth takes refugees from the US. That's what was so cool about the US once upon a time in history, it was the one place you could go, that provided an option if your birth country was hostile.

    Now that the US is hostile to its own people, there's no country to go to.

  • I use it to outline and layout big documents and reports. I give it a list of tasks I did and it writes the long-form text in the approved style. I use it anytime I need to translate my thoughts or process into corporate jargon. And occasionally my bosses ask me for a report on something totally unrelated to what we are doing and I'll ask GPT to do the first pass on the topic and then come I'll back and re-write it iteratively as I figure out what part of the topic the boss really cares about.

  • Bullshit. Our best recourse as parents is to talk to our children every day to ensure their life has people who will listen and understand them as a constant presence, instead of random strangers on the Internet. Just exposure to this shit isn't the toxic part. It's the constant exposure without context and support of caring adults to help kids contextualize the information. Just like sex, alcohol, and every other complex "adult" thing.

  • The lawsuit was about the fact the school knew for months about the problem and did nothing to address it. If they plausibly couldn't know, it wouldn't have been their fault but this was reported to the admin repeatedly and they did nothing.

  • One of them was just found to have published comments in their college newspaper insisting that rape was only a crime if the woman was actively resisting. This is a dangerous move away from the current legal consent standard.They will re-define rape out of existence.

  • There's always churn and turnover, I've been part of communities that lost up to 3 of the top 5 sites for something etc. and the community bounces back in a couple of months. Streaming sites aren't horrifically difficult to set up so they will often reappear shortly with similar interface.

  • They get charged as adults in court all the time. Girls of this age can get pregnant and in some places this makes them a legal adult regardless of age. Most places in the US they can get married. It's hard to feel they are full children given all this.

    Also, they can't get treatment without parental consent, which is not true of most of the above.

    Edit: and I forgot join the military! Statistically far more people regret their military service than their gender care.

  • What you're describing is called a citation or reference tree and they are used to visualize complex set of references. Web of Science has a nice one, Scopus also has a tree view, I believe. Google Scholar has the information to make one, but doesn't.

  • Yes and no? You can't buy the food at school with cash. So just opting out of the system isn't possible.

    Cash has to be taken to the cafeteria before lunch to be entered into the system so the kids need a special pass to run down and take care of it. Mine are really bad at remembering this and at the start of the year when every family is trying to put cash in, there can be massive delays.

    The most interesting boggle about the new system is they didn't include any way to transfer lunch balance between kids in the family and apparently that was a big issue for a lot of families. Seems that many people would give the cash deposit to the oldest kid and then use the old system to redistribute the money to the younger kids in the family later.

  • Yep! $2.25 for the "convenience" every transaction on the shady new app my school district picked this year. I'm supposed to be grateful they moved to an app this year that processes the payments quickly instead of the 1 school day lag the last app had.
