it’s 2028. trump is dead. elon is dead. zuckerberg is dead bezos is dead they’re all dead
Like to charge reblog to cast
700 ICE agents pulled out of minnesota? morale low on the murder squad due to getting their asses caved in by your grandma in -30 weather every day for weeks on top of being dupes and stooges of the most pathetic order? ohhhh gosh.......ohhhhhhhhh too bad. what a fun time to send $15 to the Stand With Minnesota org of your choice
ICE separated a five year old child from his father and sent him to a detention facility in Texas. His family didn't know his whereabouts for almost 24 hours. There is no hell hot enough.
My friend took this shot.
Tell your friend thank you for their bravery and for helping to get the word out about Liam.
Liam Adrian Cornejo Ramos is just 5 years old and currently in pre-K. Yesterday, he and h… sarai Orquiz needs your support for Help Bring 5-
According to Minneapolis Public Schools 4 small children total have been kidnapped by ICE since this round of raids started this week including Liam.
taking care of yourself really is a full-time job
yeah this is how you know Michelin stars are bullshit
The biggest reason 9/11 did not happen in brazil is because big jesus would have catched the plane and destroy the terorist. Second big reason is tjat world trade center wads not i nbrasil
[COVERED IN BLOOD, EYES LARGE] i have been working. On my resume
[HANDS VISIBLY SHAKING, BLOOD CAKED UNDER NAILS] there is. A cover letter
It's so weird to me when people are like 'but that will cost the government money!' So what? They're the government, they're supposed to be spending money. What, you want them to take your tax dollars and then do nothing with it? Lock it all up in a big government vault and just look at it? Why are you so scared of giving a third grader lunch or a homeless person a house.
i thro my hands up in the air some time
i’m going to point to this every single time people on here try to claim that right-wing bigots “see/treat trans women as men”
"i don't care if they make their whole way though uni with chatgpt" i think you guys are so internetpilled that you have forgotten there are actual jobs out there that require people to know what they are doing in any way possible or else people die
i know a lot of people study just to get paid well but girl this is engineering be for fucking real take this seriously
114 people died in the Hyatt Regency collapse, and in the US it's the third largest structural collapse fatality count, behind 9/11 and the Pemberton Mill collapse in 1860.
I've learned about this tragedy in my physics classes, to demonstrate tensile strength, and as a reminder about the importance of calculations being done right. I've also learned about it in my legal classes as an example of construction defect lawsuits. I've seen it referenced in disaster response classes.
Between AI and the current Presidential administration, we're barrelling right back towards this nightmare.
There are multiple errors that resulted in this collapse, but these stand out to me:
1. Kansas City was facing high unemployment and needed to attract jobs and business into the city. So the planning and inspection departments may have looked too closely at the designs.
2. An engineering firm too lazy to double check their designs or design changes by the manufacturer before approving them. The error that resulted in the collapse was one that the owner of the engineering firm said that a "first year engineering student" would spot.
3. The steel manufacturer treating preliminary plans as final plans, not verifying the math on their end.
The bridges' original design could only hold 60% of the minimum load required by city code. The design changes recommended by the manufacturer halved that. Less than a year and 3 weeks from opening to the public, the whole thing collapse.
Articles about the collapse say that everyone "trusted" the other party to have done the calculations correctly.
A significant portion of the population trusts what the computer or AI tells them, without checking. Imprecisely calibrated AI hallucinate information. The US economy is going into a downturn and federal regulatory agencies are being gutted.
We are going to see the Hyatt Regency Collapse repeat over and over for decades, not just in buildings, but in medicine, manufacturing, the environment, etc.
Some of this we're just going to have to weather, but the message for AI users comes straight from IBM (once the world's leading computer manufacturer) back in 1979:
"A Computer Cannot Be Held Accountable. Therefore A Computer Should Never Make A Management Decision."
The owner of the engineering firm that designed the Hyatt Regency spent the rest of his life lecturing on the disaster, to serve as a warning to his fellow engineers about the real-life consequences of sloppy design.
I don't think Sam Altman or Mark Zuckerberg or Elon Musk will have the courage or the honor to do that when OpenAI / Meta / xAI are responsible for getting people killed.
So if you're going to blindly trust the AI to do critical work tasks, I hope you're prepared to be making an apology tour for the rest of your life if it all goes wrong.
platonically shooting my friendshot hoping I don't get acquaintance-zoned
quick reminder that Donald trump will die, wealth cannot buy immortality, all the money in the world cannot buy a treatment that does not exist. wealth extends your life by giving access to preventive care and can't help you much if you're already terminal. dialysis cannot be performed indefinitely and it takes a huge toll on the body. organ transplants cannot be performed indefinitely and take a huge toll on the body, provided it even works. it's a massively risky procedure. pills can only help so much. every medical intervention he gets will have a tax on his body. wealth cannot stop the passage of time. all the money in the world can't buy something that doesn't exist. everybody dies. he will die.
