As someone else who works in ML but as a user for research purposes, I agree that there is no technical distinction but we’re talking about public communications here. You and I both know that AI and ML are the same thing. Most people do not. If I talked with my mom about AI she would assume I mean generative AI. She wouldn’t understand the nuance in your comment.

In fact, even as a researcher who uses both simple ML techniques and generative AI, I tend to make the assumption that when someone mentions AI they mean generative AI.

Common language changes based on the common understanding of society. The fact that the technical terms mean something different from the common understanding in society means that we need to be even more careful with the terms that we use, especially with something as polarizing as generative AI.

I wouldn’t call that “doing a good job”. If they were doing a good job, they would disambiguate Machine Learning from Generative AI. I don’t know that they’re doing this intentionally, but i would definitely appreciate that distinction being made.

I’d argue that it is a lot easier to inform the public when the campaign doesn’t have to cover as much area and that it becomes more difficult to buy every race when there are more of them.

I kind fo agree and kind of don’t. I agree in that parents should take accountability for their children. That said, social media has been shown to be addictive and kids are frequently ahead of their parents technologically. One thing that could help is an education campaign that teaches parents how to effectively monitor their kid’s online activity. Parents need some help figuring out what tools to use and how to use them I think.

So, the Democrats push their member to resign while the Republicans allow theirs to hold on until it won’t hurt their vote margin. If the dems hadn’t lost one, the repubs would have let him keep hanging on.

Cool, thanks! That’s some crazy high ISO.

Thanks for the info, that’s awesome! Based on the quality of the image, I’d guess this was a specialized camera designed to have a broader range of sensitivity. Do you know if that’s right or did they just use a nice DSLR?

Also, the first image has been corrected for rayleigh scattering, either algorithmically or artistically. The second image does not appear to have been corrected. It looks similar to what we get from geostationary satellites prior to performing rayleigh scattering correction.

Air and water move, especially when heated.

You know, what I said was largely right but reading a few articles about the changes makes it apparent that your interpretation is also right.

In Dec. 2025, Secretary of the Treasury Scott Bessent nixxed some of the quarter designs that were approved by then-Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen during the Biden Administration for focusing “on DEI and Critical Race Theory policies.” One of the coins featured a line of people with arms linked, in between the words “We shall overcome.”

At the time, U.S. Treasurer Brandon Beach said the coinage design is supposed to “celebrate American history and the founding of our great nation,” but that imagery was scrapped because “the Biden Administration and Secretary Yellen remained focused on DEI and Critical Race Theory policies.”

“The Trump Administration is dedicated to fostering prosperity and patriotism. We have no doubt these new designs will be wildly popular with the American people

I’ve seen others suggest that this is commemorative of the revolutionary war. This year is the 250th anniversary of the United States. The lack of an olive leaf was said to signify our unwillingness to compromise with England.

It would be great if the media could quit trying to push Newsom down our throats, too. He’s not the absolute worst but I don’t want him as president. How about we quit calling him the “front runner” until we’ve seen who else might want the job?

I’ll offer one, then. As a Coloradan, I’d vote for Joe Neguse.

I want the democrats to put forward a good slate of candidates, have them discuss issues in a reasonable and informative way, then have us vote on our favorite. There are people whose jobs are to know who would make a good candidate. Most people, myself included, don’t have enough information to say who should run. I do think that most people can name a few who they don’t want to run and I think Kamala and Hilary are both high on most people’s lists.

Someone saying “please don’t run Kamala” shouldn’t mean they need to offer an alternative. That is the job of the democratic party.

Okay, seriously, can he do one thing that isn’t objectively evil?

Edit: Not only was he nominated, he was confirmed in December and is CURRENTLY the US Ambassador to South Africa.

In 1987, Bozell and the NCPAC joined a coalition of groups opposed to the Reagan administration meeting with the president of the African National Congress, the leading anti-apartheid group in South Africa. Bozell wrote that he was “proud to become a member of the Coalition Against ANC Terrorism.” In 2013 Bozell complained on Twitter that the mainstream media “mythologizes” the late anti-apartheid leader and first president of a post-apartheid South Africa, Nelson Mandela.[5]

The more I read about this guy, the worse it gets…

1. A quick search brings up nothing with ICE and “warheads” so it doesn’t appear to be “widely reported”. Can you give evidence for your claims?
2. I didn’t say that the article is making unsubstantiated claims. I said that you are. The article is substantiated, it just isn’t all that surprising that ICE is spending more on weaponry as they hire more agents.
3. The story says nothing about slush funds or anything beyond ICE spending more on weaponry.
4. You are posting in a public forum. That is explicitly asking for conversation and feedback, even if you didn’t directly ask me for mine. If you don’t want people to respond, don’t post.

Raw Story already stretches the truth for clicks. You’re here just making completely unsubstantiated claims. They are doing more than enough heinous shit without people mudding the waters with lies.

In response to the article itself, which references a 360% increase in weapons spending, ICE more than doubled the number of agents it employs. I wish they wouldn’t, but they seem to think that all of these untrained traitors need weapons. It makes sense that they would have a massive increase in weapons purcheses to outfit the new traitors and the future traitors they’re hoping to hire.

This is a non-story for the most part and you don’t need to add lies to it.

I haven’t really looked at Facebook in a long time but also haven’t deleted my account because I do use Facebook marketplace sometimes.

I just logged in and looked. I actually saw no AI generated content except the few examples that were posted by people I know. I’m sure other’s experiences are different, but the algorithm isn’t feeding me slop for some reason.

How have I never heard of this? In the digital age the 4th amendment really means nothing…

Not that I disbelieve you but, source please?

I’m not trying to be snarky here. I’m just struggling with how to make this not sounds snarky.

You’re incorrect. You would be correct for any other workers but federal employees are different. I was a federal employee and have witnessed those differences first-hand. The TSA is absolutely required to continue working without pay. If you search for info on it, there are many articles discussing this issue every time there is a shutdown. For example.
