There is significant value to reducing pollution (in human health and flourishing).
That said, GP comment is intellectually dishonest. It doesn't account for the negative externalities of his choices/politics that, as you correctly identify, are tied to his values.
Great to see more insurance hype! We've been working on AI to solve the consumer search problem in the industry for the past 3 (almost 4) years and it's great to see the big labs getting their hands dirty and building tools for practitioners in the space.
More industry exposure to well-managed agentic experiences will create oodles of opportunities to reduce premiums for consumers and offput some inflation-driven increases in cost of coverage.
Agreed. Discussions like these always remind me of some great research on how the destruction of the old, more averaged, and less targeted infosphere used to support significantly more political cohesion.
The advice here is good, and I'm a big believer that the cream (e.g., sincerity and real opinions) rises to the top for writing. Still, think folks dunk on these types of writing automation tools too much when, for many, they can be a gateway drug to consistent posting and finding your online voice.
That is to say, the whole post is a bit of an internet old-head complaint. Reminds me of baby boomers complaining about a "decline" in homeownership and having children without acknowledging the massive shifts in the economic accessibility that support these milestones.
It's easy to write a post like this when you've already built a following because you started when social media was a greenfield experience. It's much harder when you have to compete for signal while being pressured to build a brand and perform at your day job.
"In further analyses, the researchers found that, for cancer patients, whether their HDHP had a health savings accounts (HSAs) did not make a difference."
Excellent, level headed, read that appropriately acknowledges that we live in a world ultimately bounded by physics that (at some point) no amount of money or human attention can overcome.
The second one is from the inside of the observatory (89th floor). Folks with media passes were allowed to get closer so that's the crowd you see pictured. He's climbing in the background.
Wonder if you could reconstruct synthetic versions of Gsearch with archive pages. I'd guess SEO/SEM companies have the data to build a small version of this and track the changes over time.
Yes, this. I got 50k and will never be made whole for my acute or lifelong pain.
I had an ace attorney who told me there were no assets to recover beyond the insurance settlement at the minimum limit provided.
My health insurer at the time later tried to take the settlement from me via predatory collections tactics, and I was only able to keep it due to California state laws that protected me if I wasn't made whole (I wasn't hit there but am a citizen of the state).
Most accidents are caused by folks on the lower end of the SES spectrum so a very large number of victims end up like me.
You also don't hear that much of our stories because the dead and the maimed often tell no tales / it's unpleasant to hear. Many settlements also require silence.
A hacker seeking to change a political system-- independent of alignment-- would be well advised to take an approach that is almost the exact inverse of this project's.
The research on getting people to change political attitudes or engage in pro-social political behaviors says that public shame, especially amongst their friends/communities/families, is the most effective lever available.
So, instead of making a list of everyone who believes in $prosocial_behaviors_and_policies create a publicly searchable, and verifiable database of folks engaged in $anti_social_behaviors_and_policies that are destructive to the their communities.
Better transparency into where everyone stands helps to prevent toxic policies and rhetoric that poison the commons and allows communities (teammates, employers, friends, and family-- both present and future) to then apply social pressure or the threat of ostracism in order to generate meaningful change.
There's a reason that bad actors (of all stripes and political affiliations) fear transparency! It's a highly effective tool for aligning behavior with societal/community values.
