Otake's mother was seen in tears, saying, "My daughter is not coming back".

I feel so sorry for their family. Imagine losing your child because their employer didn't want to risk losing a single day's sales

A sales manager reflected on the incident, saying, "Looking back, the sales proceeds were not worth a human life".

The company's director was also quoted saying: "This is a matter of profound sorrow, and I offer my deepest apologies to the bereaved family."

It's easy to say all this in retrospect. Two families lost their children because of this, no amount of retrospective analysis and apologies can make them come back.

If the company truly cared for the human lives they needlessly destroyed, they'd have never sent them back into harm's way.

Never mind the fact that lorekeeper was an actual job back then - so you'd have people who's entire livelihood/societal role was remembering these stories.

The rich already decided they don't want to prevent this, they'd rather just replace everyone underneath them. That's why the AI bubble just won't pop even though its a blackhole for money

Don't worry friend, in the blink of an eye you'll be saying the same thing about 30.

Besides 25 is a great time. You're likely early in your career so you've got plenty of choices still to make and probably not that much tying you down, and you've likely still got plenty of healthy years left with your body, especially if you put in the work and keep it fit.

Yeah, infection is the best protection... If you survive your first infection, which an awful lot of people didn't, and many more still developed life long disability as a result.

So I think I speak for most when I say I'd rather take the vaccine, so my chances of dying/being hospitalised were way lower if I ever got the real thing.

That and the landlord's favourite - "Trade Magnolia"

It's not an ugly paint colour, but it's boringly neutral and inoffensive, devoid of any character whatsoever.

Once I own a place of my own, I swear to god I'm avoiding that colour like the plague.

Apart from the garish turquoise carpet, I think the original looks timelessly vintage.

Whereas the one on the right looks fashionable, but has almost no character of its own - kind of like those rich people houses you see on YouTube listed for millions, but nobody actually ever seems to buy.

The tangled financial web at the heart of Reform UK

Looks inside

Senior party officials operating via shell companies to receive sketchy "loans" and secretive donations that scream "I can't believe it's not money laundering!"

Sounds about right for a party by Nigel Farage. Calling him and his cronies weasel scumbags would be doing weasels dirty.

Watching this as a European, it's wild how blatantly hard this "news" anchor repeatedly tries to twist the guys words to make him sound like he's saying something he's not.

Like the guy's being perfectly reasonable in almost every point:

  • We're all paying taxes for healthcare benefits, why are we not all getting access to them?

  • The US treats illegal immigration with a bizare level of criminality. Unless there's violence involved, then its a civil matrer, so why are militarised bloodthirsty hounds being set upon these people?

  • Speaking of which... ICE are litterally going around in masks, racially profiling and detaining and killing US citizens. Why are they not being held to account?

It actually makes me happy to see that anchor squirm when the guy brought up Donald Trump being a pedo and the pushing under the rug of the Epstein files.

I agree. This article did a great job at making me sympathetic to an LLM agent.

Given what looks to be a simple task with a tight deadline, but is actually rendered almost impossible by bottlenecks the people who gave the task didn't forsee - and then getting blamed for not being able to complete the task.

Sounds like a day at my old job.

I personally dislike LLMs for their environmental impact and corrosiveness towards human culture, and I still think this was an unfair test. It had essentially no access to the budget it was supposed to have available due to API bugs, and was blocked from any form of advertising except spam marketing that its creators punished it for using. The fuck was it meant to do, shit money out from its arse?

I do remember hearing that there was a mall across from the MetLife stadium... didn't realise that it was the 2nd biggest mall in the US with a literal themepark inside it!

Now I'm less impressed that there's a roller-coast inside the mall, and more that anyone thought to make a mall so big it could fit that much inside it
