If you don't like them that's fine, its the ban them from campus stuff that indicates the fragility and intolerance.

With respect to beating up on trans people, what is often considered punching is in many cases disagreeing. Again, we're really talking about an intolerance for disagreement.

Can't tell if we should moderate the article as Troll or Flamebait.

Commenters have already pointed out the dishonesty of the prose based on their own published stats.

Yes, I'm enabling the clickbait by commenting.

Oh FFS.

This "private army intimidating people" is nothing of the sort. It is the administration doing EXACTLY what the 1996 law requires of it. The fact that everyone just ignored the law for 30 years does not make Trump the criminal now and it does not make what ICE is doing illegal. It makes what everyone did from 1997-2020 the CRIME.

If you don't like immigration law - then win enough elections to change it. What Bush did, what Obama did, what Biden did on the subject were actual crimes. My gwd DACA - holy crap an entire program made up entirely by executive whim based on wild interpretation of a few line in the code. Wow that honestly sounds a lot like what everyone accuses this admin of doing when it comes to things like tariffs. Funny how we only have laws when the LEFT does not like what President is doing, when the RIGHT does not like it miraculously the courts are unable to find any legal standing, and the legislature decides it has to play its constitutionally assigned role...

What is missing from the entire conversation right now is Trump is governing pretty much EXACTLY like Bush, Obama, AND Biden did. The attitudes about authority and rule making all the same. Even the rhetoric, anyone remember "bitter clingers", once again the real difference is nothing other than who it is directed toward.

The truth is their is no actual air between the leadership styles of Obama and Trump, the real reason he gets so much hate is because the opposition's heroes are opposite sides of the same coin.

Did you try watching "History of the World Part II"

I did, I went in really really wanting to like it. It had its moments like anything that long will but mostly it was dull. Mel should have left well enough alone.

They sat and laughed because it was fun. A lot of those old shows are still funny. That certain demographics did not or no longer find them funny should inhibit the rest of us.

JPEG-XL is a good format but I just realized yesterday that Google Docs on Android doesn't support inserting a webp image a decade after Google was pushing it. I had one from a website and needed to run it through imagemagick first.

Android supports it, all the apps using android image primitives supoort it, but one of Google's flagship apps still doesn't.

We used move much faster thirty years ago. If an app supported say GIF, PNM, and TGA when JPEG came out it was supported in the next release.

Hopefully this round will be better. It's probably a management problem ... maybe they will listen to their chatbot since they don't listen to their engineers.

You conflate perceived harm and actual harm. Hearing an opinion you hate is not actual harm.

Hint: 'actual' is often something different than 'feelings'.

Or its something we have seen again and again in mathematics. Someone does some work involving some abstraction that has no practical application at the time. Then sometime in the future some other person realizes that the old abstraction can be applied to some 'new' domain. Its not terribly surprising that an LLM trained on old academic journals and letters could speed up such a process.

Human written academic papers can be mash-ups of existing techniques/knowledge too. Standing on the shoulders of others, so to speak. The approach is not invalidated.because it is done by a computer.

Nope. Especially wrt speech where the impact on the listener may be based on their misunderstanding of the topic, holding incorrect beliefs, political rather than factual beliefs, etc.

Rights have limitation based on law, actual harm.

Palestinian leadership were literally nazi allies during ww2. Literally visited hitler during the war. Discussed 'jewish policy' with hitler. Post war the PLO was literally trained by former nazi officers.

Actually they don't. You prove my point, 'a they don't agree with me and I really hate them'' definition of abuser/hater.

Actually scientific study led to that, which led to moving away from physically transitioning children in various european countries.

I came to realization that what changed in recent years is not the amount of censorship but ability to do it quietly no longer there. Censorship always existed, but it was much easier to isolate and marginalize dissenters. Now, everyone has their own online tribe and it is practically impossible to suppress any information. So yes, Internet did deliver on its promise, but it also created new problems.

Thank you for proving my point, not a 1945 nazi, rather a child screaming 'nazi' at someone who disagrees with them.

Uh no, nazi germany was inspired by fascist italy.. Fascist italy was inspired by a selective interpretation of ancient rome.

My friends and I were cracking up to an early 80s record so it seems he was around 60.

The war that resulted from Pearl Harbor lasted nearly 4 years.

The war that resulted from 9/11 lasted nearly 20 years.

The war ending has a lot to do with getting on with living.
