We've been running Centminmod on our servers for years. Love the software. There is no fancy web UI but it does have CLI menus, etc... so, definitely not for the novice but it's really good at what it does. I'm not affiliated, just a happy customer:
What's worse, is they train on your content, and very often you don't even get an attribution link. So the end user never even knows it was your site that provided the information and you never even get a single clickthrough. It's not like the SERPs where someone would click through, read your site, hopefully find it interesting and useful and come back.
It's going to be a serious problem and I've already seen sites that are down 90% in traffic simply because AI is scraiping them, answering the questions themselves and never providing a linkback.
I pulled all the websites I had - some existed for a decade plus and made me hundreds of thousands of dollars. All that is left is bots that theft the value of my work. Until something changes, goodbye.
I have no problem with these AI summaries but someone needs to make a law requiring the AI provider to generate links to the primary source as part of the output. If a human writer ripped off someones work and didn't attribute, it would be a huge scandal. when an AI does it, its expected.
This is like choosing to be an elementary school teacher and then quitting because it turns out your students for the year aren't your pets in perpetuity.
It is dumb of him to say that. But, I will say that Iran's only goal is to hold out as long as it can and exert political pressure to get the US to stop the blockade.
If the political pressure goes away and the Iranian administration realizes that they either can't last or that political pressure won't work, they are much more likely to finally capitulate and negotiate/surrender and agree to terms.
So, I certainly don't think it's treasonous, but a unified country all trying to achieve the same goal which is better for the whole world and Iranian citizens would end the conflict much faster.
So, considering the above the more negative news about the US and it's war, the better it is for the Ayatollahs and the IRGC.
Given all the factors. I’m not sure whats better for who, which is why no one started a war with Iran before.
I mean yes, best is the IRGC laying down its arms inviting pluralism and starting free and fair secular elections, but is that what’s on the table?
It feels to me given the rational lack of trust on all sides, it’s a permanent stalemate. There’s no reason for any side, particularly Iran, to believe that a ceasefire would actually be respected.
What outcome do you think a unified USA could realistically achieve that’s better for Iranian citizens and the world?
If he was referring specifically to the COVID vaccine, I think he has a valid point. If he's talking about other, long tested vaccines for something that they actually PREVENT, then I think you have a point.
I mean, if you are trying to build the BEST orchestra, the one that hopefully sounds the best... why wouldn't you want to base it entirely off the skill of the person?
It's fairly obvious that people who write articles like this don't really care whether the orchestra is any good or not. To them it is more important that the orchestra meet their arbitrary racial and gender quotas. Of course it’s stupid, since the audience wants the orchestra to be as musically excellent as possible. Why should the orchestra try to please anyone else?
I have had a plan from the marketplace (ie, Obambacare) for the past 3 years. I've never gotten any subsidides, so I'm paying full price.
I'm getting the Bronze plans that are set up specifically only for major events. My deductible is essentially $10,000/year. I have never actually "used" the health care, I do cash pay everywhere I go because it's cheaper and I haven't ever reached the deductible in a year.
I'm a single male with a clear health history, non smoker, etc. I'm currently 47, so these prices started when I was 44-45.
3 years ago, $350/month.
2 years ago, $500/month.
This year, $675/month.
Never filed a claim. Never used it. I just simply pay it every month just in case something catastrophic happens to me.
Clearly this isn't working. The whole system is broken but Obamacare isn't getting cheaper like they claimed it would and more and more subsidies just reward the insurance companies and the health care system to charge more and never fix it.
Anyone remember the movie Brewsters Millions? I find it strange that someone would spend $140M of their own personal money to run for Governor when that job doesn't pay (and shouldn't earn) anywhere near that much money for the person.
They mention that in the movie and it's because both politicians running for the office were corrupt and they were planning on stealing more than that on the job.
So, why would Tom Steyer really spend that much of his own personal money?
