ChatGPT and other LLMs allow the manipulation to exist in an unprecedented volume. When you have actual people making posts, there are limits on how fast a person can make them and high costs to hire more people which limit resources. LLMs let you make a script and crank out thousand of posts in minutes, each unique and able to bypass spam filters more easily.
It’s entirely about your safety:

In short, all else being equal, the safest speed to drive is as close to the median speed as you can estimate. The probably of an accident increases with the number of cars that you pass and the number of cars that pass you.
If course it’s not completely cut-and-dry like that, and is more applicable to higher traffic situations, but it’s a good general rule.
I mean, sure, but there was never anything stopping them from doing this in the first place except public pressure. Large companies changing tracks due to public demand is a good thing, and definitely a win.
I think its better to simply realize that a win doesn’t mean the fight is over. It’s okay to be happy about a success. Just don’t let up on the pressure.
Wouldn’t that make the face on the right non-planar?

I would argue that people didn’t know what it meant, or were in a position where they could not refuse the loan.
Kids grow up being taught that they had to have a college education to have a good job, and that a good job is necessary to have a good life. Parents and counselors reinforce this, so they have no reasonable means believe otherwise.
Employers DO require college education more and more. Not all, true, but the competition for those jobs is higher, so expect lower pay and greater difficulties in getting hired. Often that pay is not even enough to make rent. For the rest, the number of people who have a degree is in increasing, so the competition for those jobs is increasing as well, with the same decrease in pay.
So out of the gate, children are put in a situation where, from everything they can see and are told, they need a degree. But most can’t afford one. Therefore, they are placed in a position where they must take a loan with no guarantee that the degree will get them a job that pays well enough for them to pay back loan.
So it’s a bit more than “you took a loan, you pay for it.” It better described as “you were cooreced into taking this loan on false pretences presented to you by all of society.” Society should take responsibility for that.
Honest question: what kind of noise are we talking about? If the human eye is only sensitive to a very narrow set of wavelengths, and we remove all of those wavelengths from the environment so it has nothing to detect, then why would there be any noise in the measurement?
While I agree in theory, I’m not really sure there’s much that can be done in practice. The genie is out of the bottle here: jobs want the paper, so people get the paper, leading to jobs expecting people to have the paper. An employer is unlikely to deliberately “lower their standards” (in their view) if the pool of potential employees with a degree is large enough for their needs already. Since you can’t legislate that employers are not allowed to require a degree, and you can’t expect people to not get a degree and sacrifice their own potential future to break that cycle, we’re kind of at an impasse.
That’s why the only way forward that anyone’s figured out so far is government funded higher education.

IIRC, powdered dish washing detergent is mildly abrasive, and it gets jetted around at relatively high speeds (compared to hand washing). That’s also why it’s bad for knives.
Those are maize dogs if they’re from that region of France. They’re just corn dogs if they come from anywhere else.
I don’t know of any system that will hold up if all the people in power just decide to ignore it. What we lack is a robust way to ensure that no one group holds all the power at any given time.

Oh, well, carry on, then. Carry on.
The ambiguity was by design. It let the test proctor decide who did or did not pass with near impunity. This was used to legally deny voting rights to minorities.
It’s good to know that we have advanced as a society. We’re talking about now, not 80 years ago.
You also seem to be under the impression that making a “correct” choice would be without consequences. It would be nice if the moral or legal choice always had positive consequences for the chooser, but that’s not always the case. That doesn’t chance the morality or legality of the choice. Yes, soldiers have been persecuted for disobeying an illegal order; either legally or socially; but that doesn’t change their duty.
(Also, David McBride was arrested for releasing confidential documents, something that is very much illegal. We can debate the morality, but that’s not relevant here because it’s not remotely related to a soldier refusing to follow illegal orders.)
A soldier following an illegal order may lead to people dying unnecessarily, so they are duty bound to not follow illegal orders. A doctor choosing to not treat patients because they don’t like something about them may lead to people dying unnecessarily, so they are duty bound to treat all patients.
A doctor’s agency does not supersede another’s right to live. A doctor doesn’t get to choose who lives or dies; and yes, even requiring that the doctor refer the patient to a different doctor would result in people dying.
A soldier’s job includes disobeying illegal orders. That’s the law. Try again.
Because it was an active investigation. If they released the investigation files, it would have fucked over the court case to convict them. It wasn’t until recently that the Trump-controlled DoJ said “okay, we’re done. Nothing to see here.” Now that there’s no longer an investigation, there’s no longer a reason to withhold the files.
And before you say that they deliberately took too long to avoid releasing them, remember that the Democrats believed they had time to finish the investigation properly, but Trump’s elections screwed that; and that when dealing with people with this much power, you need a case that is more than air tight, and that takes a lot of time given who is involved. Unless you believe the Democrats could have stalled though a second term (obviously Trump couldn’t).
Oh, and if the Dems actually wanted to avoid this whole thing, they could have much more believably said “nope, nothing here,” but instead they chose to push forward.
Thank you for that inspiring addition to the conversation.
We know we can Google it, but asking questions is what creates discussion.
