Biden saw abortion as an issue for troubled women who could be aided by heroic men like himself (benevolent sexism). VP Harris is willing to argue to trust women with abortion rights & "that women can be things other than mothers. Like maybe the president."

Analysis: it’s hard to win as a bad weirdo

The harvest goddess held a long brown pod. "The Cacao pod," she said. "Crack them open and scoop out the seeds. Ferment these - very important for flavor! Dry them, roast them, and grind them into a bitter liquor. Add sugar and milk powder, and conch it, temper it, and finally mold it into bars."

"Amazing!" the god of wine replied. "Did you leave clues to help humans figure this out?"

"Clues?" said the goddess. "No! I never knew chocolate was a thing until they made it!"

This sucks that the FBI under Joe Biden has to pay this when it was Trump's corrupt DOJ under Bill Barr that did this crap while trying to hide their Russia connections.

It really is a tough decision when one candidate says pronouns at a speaking engagement and the opposing campaign vows to do programmatic ethnic cleansing and subjugate every woman to her "proper" role as a silent, servile baby mortar.

If people just fucking listened to trans kids and trans people in general, they would know the biggest threats to us aren't social media but narcissistic, abusive parents, legislators banning our access to necessary care, and widespread discriminatory systems that promote violence against us.

But they don't want to listen.

How to refine data for #LLMs? What does it mean that the data has high quality?

It's not about the data having fewer typos, or less wrong answers. Unless you are training a trivia bot.

The power of LLMs comes from them modelling the latent processes behind the task trajectories, the data, especially when the processes contain intelligent thought.

So, when you're generating synthetic data, or refining collected data, you will need to make sure the refinery output is of higher quality than its inputs.

This means you need to:
- Add intelligence. Make the new task trajectories perform deeper syntheses, pull in more relevant knowledge, take steps futher. Make more complex task performances out of simpler ones. Go through more possibilities. Go deeper meta-level and e.g. validate validations. Use search over alternative solutions.
- Groom out bad data. Rank, criticize, evaluate, and either improve/fix bad data or recontextualize it.
- Collect new data which is created by the data refinement processes themselves.
- Add knowledge from external sources, and synthesize it with the knowledge already known. Also consider the next level implications of all the knowledge already acquired.
- Apply skills to knowledge to produce new knowledge and new skills.

LLMs are data-defined. Data isn't a static thing, it needs to be looked at philosophically.

It couldn’t be anything heavier than that. But even if it were weightless, the wind profile is a serious hazard. With that kind of surface area (i.e., leverage), the tiniest gust could completely overpower the poor guy.

The only thing I know about Eswatini is that they have an annual ceremony when all the unmarried women would dance topless for the king and, I think, he gets to choose one as his new wife.

When I was a young man I wanted to be King of Swaziland when I grew up.

Once again a winner from @Daojoan:
By maintaining a position on the far left of the political spectrum - no matter what that is - Peripheral Progressives can claim a purity of ideology uncompromised by the realities of governance. They can point to anyone who falls short of their ideal and declare them “Simps for the War Machine.” It’s a position allows them to play the perpetual critic, never risking the possibility of being wrong because they never have to prove their ideas right.

They're the political equivalent of that one friend who's always into fringe music and hates any artist who goes viral. They've got all the answers, as long as nobody asks them to actually do anything. Every policy that doesn't match their utopian wet dream gets branded as a "betrayal of true progressive values."

I've had all I can stomach of the purity race—in politics, in tech, in every corner of modern life. If you'd rather be ideologically pure in some weird idealized universe that can't exist than pitch in and help real people, just stay out of the way.
