I mean, it’s definitely more normalised to the extent that APA hotels is owned by Nanjing Massacre deniers and IIRC put books regarding that in hotel rooms, and that Nippon Kaigi, well, exists. I don’t think either would be permissible in Germany (let alone be able to have members in such high positions as in Nippon Kaigi).

My impression is that many people in Japan don’t know many details Japanese atrocities, to some extent due to the way history is taught (broadly as a list of facts covering a large span of history, rather than historical analysis).l, and — due both to concerted effort by early postwar governance and due to lack of exposure — people don’t really care.

PR and advertising are the obvious ones.

Pretty conclusive! The strange people we’ve had here indeed.

Ok, first paragraph of the article (archive for reference) is

A disgruntled former Walt Disney World employee has been sentenced to three years in prison for hacking the parks' menus and changing them to falsely say foods were safe from certain.

You're right! This author hates fluff so much that they even end their sentences before they.

But also

Scheuer will receive credit for the six months he has already spent in jail. Scheuer's defense attorney David Haas said in a statement that the disgruntled employee is "very remorseful."

"He is very remorseful and apologized to the victims during the hearing," Haas said in a statement. "He is eager to get back home to his wife and 3 young daughters. He was the sole earner in the family as his wife has a number of medical issues and homeschools their children so he will look for work upon his release."

Scheuer will get credit for the six months that he has already spent in jail.

The same sentence is literally repeated twice. That does seem a bit padded with worthless fluff to me. The same sentence is literally repeated twice.

My mom? She'll never be much of a "mom", but she really did try to be better and to her credit is not a bad mom in the same way that her mom was bad to her.

Yeah it took me a while to figure out that's the right way to do it - you know you can handle it, because you handled it as a kid. Maybe not perfectly, or even well, but better than all the people who couldn't. Borderline personality disorder's manipulative aspects make me see red, but it seems to me like they can't really stop themselves, it's a soul crushing irony that their abandonment issues drive almost everyone away. You're a good son for staying by her side though anyway, it might be your cross to bear but I know it can't be easy.

I really don't want to argue on the merits, but let's just delve into the hallucinations and falsehoods:

the substantial personnel requirements for 24/7 operations across defense and intelligence agencies.

Is it substantial in terms of manpower? Maybe only a tripwire force will be deployed 24/7

Increasing operational tempo would exacerbate crew fatigue without addressing the underlying personnel shortages.

Crew? These aren't crew.

operational tempo

Wrong use of the wrong term

B-1Bs are aging platforms with declining availability in US inventories.

They are ageing but there are plenty sitting around. The bigger issue which claude failed to catch is that the US won't sell them.

The maintenance requirements would be substantial, and Australia lacks existing infrastructure to support heavy bombers.

Australia already operates heavy airlift, so I see no infrastructure lacking that would be needed to support strategic heavy bombers. The maintenance requirements would of course be as substantial as any other plane.

Pilot training pipelines would take years to develop, meaning these assets would not be operational in the short-term timeframe suggested.

This is used as a gotcha for the b-1 but it applies equally to all new planes. And it wouldn't take years to develop a training program. The human author even hints at that.

buying ancient B-1 bombers is absolutely retarded, this is the drone age not the 1980s. IMO this alone puts it ahead of our self-styled military commentator in intellectual sophistication

Even if you're right, claude's reasoning is wrong.

the naval expansion goals—growing to 12 submarines, 20 major surface combatants, and 20 smaller vessels—represent extraordinary growth beyond Australia's current shipbuilding and maintenance capacity. Australian shipyards are already struggling with existing programs like the Hunter-class frigates.

Bullshit

the suggestion to repurpose Landing Helicopter Docks as sea control carriers overlooks their primary value as amphibious assets

Why does Australia need amphibious assault ships? The human author is proposing a strongly anti-ship defensive posture, and claude spends no time rebutting that.

The proposal for military alliances with Papua New Guinea and the Philippines demonstrates strategic imagination but underestimates complex regional politics

Claude proceeds to never mention the Philippines again.

Australia's dependence on space-based systems for the proposed surveillance network creates vulnerabilities that determined adversaries would target early in any conflict.

The human author mentioned space a single time, as a single component in a fused surveillance system across all domains. So this sentence is just retarded.

a more nuanced strategy would focus on making adversary operations prohibitively costly through layered defensive capabilities and strategic uncertainty.

Retarded when claude just argued against forward positioning bases in png.

I think that half of the effect of alcohol is entirely placebo. Legally and socially, we give a lot of slack to any behavior displayed while inebriated. So being drunk gives you plausible deniability to act on your desires (within reason) without being judged by society or yourself.

Somewhat i agree.

But also "Alcohol makes the deliberate thinky bits stop working as well" is way more true.

For a man: 4-6 beers in has a very obvious experience of wanting to talk to people and blurt out things at a party context is very obvious experience. Alcohol has a continuous curve of effects, and one can lean into or resist the influence, but at certain dosages this placebo theory is clearly not true.

Consider a series of internal thoughts at a party:

  1. I should tell that stranger their hat looks an 1800's portrait
  2. wait a second, i don't know them, might be awkward, don't know how to phrase the sentence
  3. but if i play up my drunkeness i can get away with this

My experience is that thoughts like 1 are (sometimes unconscious when shy inward focused) on a dose of alcohol simply blurted out on instinct before even getting to step 2. If low-alcohol or sufficiently neurotic part 2 might come up, which you imply would be half-placebo'd by thought 3. However if someone is sufficiently scared by 2 that they need the reassurance of 3, then they'll likely be paralyzed by part 4: "oh gosh they can tell i'm faking this i'm blowing it".

Ukraine fell for the Vietnam, Afghanistan, Libya, Syria trick of divide and conquer. Just like in Syria were groups of extremists started a war that drove ethnic tensions and collapsed the country Ukraine has become far more ethnically divided and forced into a more militant position.

It is painfully obvious that Ukraine will end up like every other neocon project. For some reason liberals think that Poland is the expected outcome of becoming an American puppet. The west bank, Afghanistan and Iraq are much more typical examples. The Ukrainians must first realize who the real enemy is and stop falling for divide and conquer tactics.

At some things not others. Writing is not one of those things.

Go take a look at the Daily Mail and come back to me on that.

Getting the bad side doesn't mean you throw up your arms and just say that your essay is gonna be bad.

Obviously an essay arguing for the wrong side of the argument will be worse than an essay arguing for the right side of the argument, ceteris paribus.

And the rote boilerplate in them is more valuable than your claude drivel because it's not pretentious

Nope. That's just, like, your opinion, man. And it's a pretty bad one if you think that characterizing government boilerplate as non-pretentious is the way to go.

This thing happens so often that I can't provide a single example of it happening.

I'm not going to trawl through newspapers earmarked for recycling, looking for typos. I am not a copyeditor for News Corporation. Rest assured that it happens a lot.

Here's one, they managed to mix up entire pages: https://www.abc.net.au/news/2019-04-25/daily-telegraph-accidentally-publishes-smh-pages-in-its-paper/11046252

You rarely see articles that are just padded with worthless fluff.

... this article was in the Entertainment section of Yahoo News. Can you find an example of a Yahoo News Entertainment section article that was published in the past week and was not padded with worthless fluff?

This incident should significantly lower the credibility of Yahoo News

What credibility? Yahoo news is known to be low quality clickbait. This isn't the Times we're talking about here.

and they should issue a retraction

When was the last time you checked Yahoo News for retractions? Do they even do that?

and fire this reporter

Is this reporter on Yahoo News payroll in the first place? I think the publisher of this story is a no-name publication "where is the buzz", and is then being syndicated by Yahoo News

The post Tim Walz Says Kamala Harris Chose Him for VP Role to “Code Talk to White Guys” in 2024 Campaign appeared first on Where Is The Buzz | Breaking News, Entertainment, Exclusive Interviews & More

For reference, I expect the author made somewhere between $0 and $50 writing this article.

Pezzulo has written dozens of long-form analytical articles for major newspapers.

A real journalist writes over a dozen articles every month.

He is BETTER than a regular journalist

At some things not others. Writing is not one of those things.

The quality of factual proposals is inseparable from their prudence.

False. You can actually write a well written and well researched work arguing for both the right side and the wrong side of an argument. Haven't you ever taken English class and not gotten to choose the side of the argument you have to write for? Getting the bad side doesn't mean you throw up your arms and just say that your essay is gonna be bad.

Claude's response surpasses Pezzulo because it's a more realistic strategic plan and because it doesn't make any major blunders.

Nope. That's just, like, your opinion, man.

You clearly have not read many government reports if you think that's drivel.

I am, in fact, autistic enough to read EIRs for fun. And the rote boilerplate in them is more valuable than your claude drivel because it's not pretentious and actually serves a purpose in this world, however stupid that may be.

I can't give you a concrete example

This thing happens so often that I can't provide a single example of it happening.

exactly :)

  1. Pezzulo has written dozens of long-form analytical articles for major newspapers. He is BETTER than a regular journalist, he actually achieved an office of mild significance. He does not write about lost dogs in regional papers or the fake tits of celebrity no. 10023 like most of them.

  2. The quality of factual proposals is inseparable from their prudence.

  3. Claude's response surpasses Pezzulo because it's a more realistic strategic plan and because it doesn't make any major blunders.

  4. You clearly have not read many government reports if you think that's drivel. I assure you that people are being well paid to produce this kind of stuff without the ameliorating factors of any good points whatsoever.

literally not a single concrete example

I can't give you a concrete example, only my friend's anecdotal experiences working with journalists and my anecdotal experiences spotting missing words in newspapers. They really aren't that clever and have been getting worse.

For what it's worth, I thought phrasing was slightly rude but not out of bounds, hence I went with a confrontational "You know full well", but reflecting on it you probably were focusing on the growing slop issue- between your post, the replies and the edit timing it really does look like people talking past each other. Sorry for adding heat when none was necessary.

Tim Walz says his thing, talking heads start new round of talking shit about him, Nate Silver links slop including fake stuff, online people continue shit talking Walz online, you post here that Silver linked slop but people on this forum were ready to criticize Walz here and there wasn't another top level comment for it, you angrily edit that they're ignoring that Silver linked slop which was your point, but mottizens really want to criticize the real things Walz has said and done (or been chosen for).

ECM isn't really the right tool at all for this job;

What I mean to say is that you aren't even doing "ECM" at all. You are doing electro-etching. Kind of nitpicking on the terms here but disappointing that it wasn't pointed out.

extremely prone to gumming up the cutter in mere inches,

I think that would usually be an issue with the speeds and feeds. One thing with aluminum is that you are actually punished if your feed rate is too low. But I'm not a machinist so maybe that's not it.

Anyways chatgpt is a useful tool for vibing with, but the output result definitely isn't publication quality.

Thanks to whoever nominated my post as an AAQC! I appreciate it.

Do all posts that get recommended by anyone get approved as an AAQC or are they selected by mods or something?

I feel like buying it for your 4 young kids is a bit different from buying it for yourself as a 40-yr-old though...

Believe it or not, but I pretty much learned fluent French by playing fully voice-acted text-heavy games in French, many years ago.

Strongly believe that, and I think back on reddit CWR there was some discussion of individual substantially higher written English fluency as a direct result from getting into 90s unvoiced pokemon (translated into English) with no alternate translation, so just diving into text, sometimes translation dictionary, but lots of grinding, as opposed to classroom or tv/film osmosis

the government trying to address the problem in place where it is actually feasible to fix it

It is not a problem and I'll vote whichever way prevents the government from ""fixing"" it.

I was once strongly tempted to go into title insurance because I Fucking Love Maps and History and I'm kinda interested in Laws but I'm not lawyer material. This is one of those moments where I wonder if I could have saved a lot of grief or would have been ignored.

It's @Primaprimaprima who went from "humans are in fact very easy to persuade" to "you don't even need to present any particularly persuasive arguments, you just need to be able to credibly present your position as the social consensus" at the start of this comment chain. That is the claim I meant to dispute (or rather, the claim which I disputed could be proven by looking at COVID responses).

Even with tens of thousands of experts spending billions of dollars and R & D for a decade to solve these problems?

I'm not saying we'll never learn to fly or travel faster than light, but it's going to require innovation that is not incremental, and that can't be predicted.

Seems like you're retreating to "I'm not sure"?

Certainty is unwise, one way or another.

are the LLM companies somehow committed to never using anything but statistical inference?

LLMs are by definition big piles of algebra built from large datasets, so this is a tautology. They would be something different if they were something different.
