All it means is that the left’s vote gets split and conservatives get back into power

Hi

D2lang is good

How would you do that though? The whole point is the signal is coming from a satellite

For climbing, those are called “punters”

This seems to be based on a racist assumption. Why is speaking improper English labelled as “African American english”?. I would want to see the LLM assumptions also for southern drawl and for general incorrectly spelled / grammared speech, to compare to the assumptions made for the African American english version.

Speaking with slang / incorrect grammar is of course, in general, inversely correlated with education level and/or preference for shorthand forms of speech over writing/speaking the full grammatically correct form. The LLM is saying speaking in slang = stupid/lazy.

The researcher is labelling slang as specifically African American speak, therefore interpreting the LLM response as assuming African Americans are stupid/lazy.

The companies should be paying for the cleanup, they can then appeal against the cleanup cost if they can prove it was not them. Had enough of this bullshit. Guilty until proven innocent for environmental damage

Best comment I’ve seen so far on Lemmy. Great info

Why is the canal and river trust needing to fundraise to clean up a company’s mess?

What a novel idea, that definitely no-one has tried before

Why fix what isn’t broken

That’s simply not true, like at all. Classic American

You’re all assuming the USA, even though the original commenter said euros. That is an important distinction

In the Netherlands, kids cycle to school which is free, medical costs are zero for everyone under 18, and it’s common for kids to have bunk beds until secondary school. But I do agree on some of the costs, like food which is very expensive here.

You’ve rounded up from 40k to 200k to account for food and clothing. I don’t see how 160k is spent on food and clothing? That’s ~8800/year on average, or 740/month

This is why I’m doubtful of the statistics, it just doesn’t add up when you try to nail it down. We recently got a child, and we’ve splurged on some things, but plenty we’ve been given by friends, neighbours, family or just found second hand for cheap. That obviously changed when they get older but I don’t see 740/month by any stretch

No way in hell does it cost 250k per child, are you saying that your country doesn’t have poor people with kids? These figures are normally wildly exaggerated and assume everything must be bought new, there are no grandparents to help out, and a host of other costs
