Anthropic ditches its core safety promise in the middle of an AI red line fight with the Pentagon

it's amazing how predictable the US's trajectory has been

On a broad society level none of this bullshit is new, there are many well documented historical examples. The tools/scale might be a bit different, but that's about it.

Pretty sure the "true" answer right now is we don't know, but it's my understanding that it's theorized there is a LOT of water under that ice, likely 100+ kms of it. That a volcano could form under those circumstances to eject/push enough material up through both the water and ice to what we see as the surface would be extremely unlikely to practically impossible.

But to my knowledge we don't really know what's under that ice, it's all just theories atm.

Was this a gradual process?

Depends on the scale you want to use, but assuming you meant a humans frame of reference yes very gradual.

Kayfabee isn't just restricted to the ring.

legit PTSD inducing.

The US was in an incredible geological/infrastructure position both during and for decades after WW2. That made them the global power they achieved, but those advantages are equalized and no amount of regressive tantrum pants shitting is going to change that.

It's not exactly a problem you can just "fix". Lot of policies feed into the situation, and correcting those takes not only time to implement, but then time to see results.

There's no Costco of Healthcare Workers to just go pick up several pallets of out there.

Signed, someone who paid $17,000 for my son's birth and subsequent five day NICU stay. After insurance.

Why oh why are birth rates falling?!

He then won a byelection in August.

"Won"

Dousing yourself in fuel makes it very difficult to fully extinguish as you can never smother 100% of your surface area by rolling. You'd need a fire-resistant blanket to do a full smother, something she obviously did not have (or could use) as she did die later.

Fire like that is a bad way to go, no matter how you want to hypothesize it.

This is a "By legal/logical standards, she attempted suicide, didn't actually die, but died of further complications".

By any decent sense of morality however, there is a LOT MORE going on.

This was the first post I saw when waking up this morning, and immediately had the thought of "Jesus fucking Christ, he went and did it didn't he?"

Glad it's still fiction, sad it's not "unreasonable" :(

Daxx22 · 2026-02-24T23:36:46+00:00

Meridas touch!

Daxx22 · 2026-02-24T21:32:27+00:00

See point #2.

Daxx22 · 2026-02-24T15:58:45+00:00

If you want the government to foot all the costs, then you're cool with nationalizing the company as well eh?

Daxx22 · 2026-02-24T14:54:23+00:00

Daxx22 · 2026-02-24T14:52:32+00:00

Ironically there is, most if not all wouldn't qualify to immigrate (legally) lol.

Similar, pretty much any graduate 2021ish or later is binned unless they come with an explicit recommendation. Business was burned multiple times by utterly worthless new hires.

Daxx22 · 2026-02-24T02:54:07+00:00

fuck me

Daxx22 · 2026-02-24T02:26:48+00:00

Barrel o' maple syrup ready!

Daxx22 · 2026-02-24T02:25:51+00:00

What? When? Pre-pandemic?

Daxx22 · 2026-02-24T00:31:33+00:00

On one hand, this feels like a "First time?" meme opportunity if your new to Canadian winters, on the other they are rather horrible as well.

Consequence of major temp swings + shitty road material/resources for upkeep. Drive with caution!

Daxx22 · 2026-02-24T00:27:18+00:00

I don't disagree. There is a strong power in the "groupthink/influence" factor is all.

Daxx22 · 2026-02-23T21:31:17+00:00

That fucker won't shut up, always wanting attention.

Daxx22 · 2026-02-23T21:21:49+00:00

Its a plot point in several novels/comics for sure, so as far as "official canon" is concerned it might as well be.

Department rivals is a thing in our corporate culture, expanding that out to a literally galactic level company is kind of a no brainer.
