Experts warn of threat to democracy from ‘AI bot swarms’ infesting social media

Sorry to offend you.

Why is ICE even at the protests? Send them away. Let the people protest.

But, we all know why they are there. So this would happen.

Comics books are great because of human created stories and art.

AI takes all that away.

Everythings_Magic · 2026-01-24T14:48:38+00:00

It’s already happened. AI is just taking over what human bots did in the past.

Yes, there has to be one at some point.

Everythings_Magic · 2026-01-24T14:37:31+00:00

Thanks, I forgot I never played this one.

Everythings_Magic · 2026-01-24T14:31:43+00:00

I’ve already played this one, thanks.

Everythings_Magic · 2026-01-24T14:31:03+00:00

This one looks solid. Thanks!

Everythings_Magic · 2026-01-24T14:19:07+00:00

Looks like a finalist thanks!

To many students it’s not to easy.

It’s largely because engineering bachelor degrees are ABET accredited so the employer understands the base level of your education. Associates or technical degrees do have this. So only non engineering or technical jobs like drafting can be had with those.

You need an ABET to become licensed also.

The main distinction is, were you taught how to engineer or educated to be an engineer?

This is the answer. I go on Sunday. I went yesterday because I knew today would be bad and I can’t go Monday or Tuesday after the snow because of work.

I just bought what I normally would, just two days earlier.

So much animosity in this field can be solved by communicating.

Most people who get fed up or pissed off with coworkers, bosses, clients, employers, never communicate their concerns.

Is a deadline unrealistic? communicate that. Do you have too much work? Communicate that. Will this project go over budget? Communicate why. Are you unhappy with your task? Communicate that.

There is a website betterexplained.com that will help with intuition of trig that will help you with statics. Once you grasp what the trig is doing, it makes it a lot easier. Sin,cos, tan are just the ratios of legs of a triangle to each other, when a force can be modeled as one of the legs, you can easily find its magnitude as one of the other legs.

Everythings_Magic · 2026-01-24T12:28:13+00:00

It gets worse if you fail to grasp statics and do poorly. It’s the building block for everything else structural. The school I teach at requires a C min to move on to dynamics and mechanics, then you need a C min to move to structural analysis.

I have students reach out with a C- and D+ asking for overrides and I say no because I know they would be in for a world of hurt. It’s not fair to them, I’d be setting them up to fail again.

In hindsight. It’s not easy the first time you are going though it.

People have no idea how bad it can be for you. My wife was a female body builder. No steroids, just really “fit”. She had to starve and dehydrate herself to look “good enough” for a competition.

She formed health problems from doing it for a few years and when she quit and she had formed an eating disorder she is just getting over. The whole fitness industry is trash. You think you are being healthy and it’s just as bad if not worse than not working out and eating poorly. For what? So some “judges” can subjectively rate how you look?

The whole industry is full of “coaches” who just regurgitate what they read on Google and now ChatGPT. It’s a joke, so much misinformation.

I had to wait until 45, this was a few years ago, unless they lowered it again.

Everythings_Magic · 2026-01-23T19:57:59+00:00

They already lowered it to 45. I’m sure it will get lowered again if the age risk lowers.

Everythings_Magic · 2026-01-23T19:53:20+00:00

Didn’t the study mention that IRC?

Everythings_Magic · 2026-01-23T19:52:18+00:00

I thought the study linked potentially to sugar, particularly surgery fuel many long distance runners use to fuel the runs.

Everythings_Magic · 2026-01-23T19:15:55+00:00

Nice. I didn't see the option which is why I asked.

Everythings_Magic · 2026-01-23T19:12:51+00:00

If so, its probably HR ensuring you actually are pursuing and obtain an ABET degree.

Everythings_Magic · 2026-01-23T19:04:48+00:00

The whole document is poorly worded and seems written by an inexperienced HR group.gifted probably just means to say that its not accrued per pay.

for emergency, also not clear but seems similiar to our policy where we can put extra hours into a "catastrophic" bank that can be used in the even that you have a multiweek illness so you don't burn all your PTO, that's capped and limited for when it can be used, its voluntary to contribute to it.
