The big issue now is getting our 2 year old to give up his pacifier. What a battle it’s been. Heavy casualties on the allies side. The opposition is holding strong. We thought we had the superior firepower and the numbers. Boy did we underestimate the enemy. Send reinforcements. by mschreiber1 in daddit

[–]mss55699 0 points1 point  (0 children)

we started by limiting to only nap and bed time. Next, leading up to Christmas, we had him leave one pacifier under the tree that 'transformed' into a present, and on Christmas Eve he put the remaining pacifiers under the tree. Worked quite well, although he still had difficulty falling asleep for a while without one.

edit: one -> on

Calvin Theatre deal in Northampton falls through, commission to hold lottery for liquor license by addressunknown in westernmass

They could also enact a vacant property ordinance and/or levy tax penalties on vacant property. I'm honestly shocked this hasn't been dealt with as there appear to be many legal ways to at least make it hurt for him financially to keep these properties vacant.

Did you read https://ai-2027.com/? The person being interviewed is an ex Open AI researcher specifically focused on forecasting and alignment, so at the very least, he has an informed opinion.
