You liked the farm? Season 1 was very good....The rest was always grasping because how production was screwed after that 1st season.

>The dataset used to train the model needs to be sourced ethically, just like the supply chain used by a physical manufacturer needs to be audited to ensure a supplier isn't using slave labour in a country too remote to attract much attention over the issue.
Using data that readily and publicly accessible on the internet that was uploaded to the internet (many of which signed their right away to be collected in a dataset) to train a dataset is no where close to using slave labor this is a horrible analogy.

Because they don't actually know how political parties work and neither do they want to work in politics if it beyond doomerism about how nothing matters on social media.

I mean that simply not the case for every politician there are plenty of politicians with a deficit in charisma and are skilled in managing interest groups and stakeholders to garner support. People overvalue charisma in politics. Though I will give you the more national the race the higher in importance it becomes.
Edit: For those who doubt why don't you attend your local politics meeting in my case this would be direct democracy townhall I can tell you our selectman would put you to sleep. If you want farther up go check to see your state rep I doubt they're a Casanova. If those are too hard go watch cspan which i do, most of these guys come off as glorified pencil pushing bureaucrats half the time which makes sense as half of them are lawyers truly a profession know for exclusively exciting action packed court cases and not sifting through hundreds of pages of legalises documents that use so much circle logic you don't know where a paragraph begins and ends.

Reply to comment by Banea-Vaedr in Contrary To Popular Opinion, Most Teens Get Real Value Out Of Social Media by AerialDarkguy
Idk, I think a lot of the complaints about social media is that its replace normal social interaction and increased siloing. Social media can be useful socially when evaluated in a vacuum, for example if you live in the middle of nowhere in rural Alaska social media is probably helpful. But it shouldn't be treated as a replacement for actual social contact, I think one of the bigger issues is the teens and children lack social outlets and become heavily reliant on social media for their main socialization. The point being getting rid or limiting of social media for young people isn't the main answer its should be more focused on providing options to replace or supplement the socialization factor social media provides.

Reply to comment by ivanthemute in TIL: WW1 Armistice Day was Nov 11th, fighting was to cease at 11:00 AM. An American solider charged a German machine gun nest with 16 mins left, and died at 10:59 AM. The last soldier to die in WWI. by wats6831
To be fair he also might of been just suicidal which i think is a bit more sympathetic. His motives are unclear maybe he was a glory hound getting that last sniff of combat or maybe he just wanted to die for some reason. Who knows its not like suicide was talked in the open back then and the guy did seem to be generally depressed. That being said the award (btw it was the DSC) was unnecessary.

Reply to comment by [deleted] in 'House of the Dragon' Showrunner Talks About The Finale, Changes From George R.R. Martin’s Book, and What to Expect for Season 2 Which Starts Filming Early 2023 by johnppd
The war was started by having a power structure based around a system inheritance where political change and stability is impossible without violent action. Either side's family would have died with Otto and Daemon at the head to secure the inheritance (which they are currently depsite the kneeling and oath swearing to Aegon and Rhaneyra). Viserys chose a weak claimant and everyone is surprised a political member in an advantageous position took control. The problem I always had with the Blacks is they always refused the play the political game and rested on their stale oaths to win the day. Its called a Game of Thrones for a reason swearing oaths is great but anyone with any political sense would have shored up their power through practical means.
