The focus on construction is a distraction, the point here is that men of lower socio-economic status in the US are killing themselves at a horrific rate. From the actual paper this article is based on:
The overall suicide rates by sex in the civilian noninstitutionalized working population were 32.0 per 100,000 among males and 8.0 per 100,000 among females.
Major industry groups with the highest suicide rates included Mining (males = 72.0); Construction (males = 56.0; females = 10.4); Other Services (e.g., automotive repair; males = 50.6; females = 10.4); Arts, Entertainment, and Recreation (males = 47.9; females = 15.0); and Agriculture, Forestry, Fishing, and Hunting (males = 47.9).
Major occupation groups with the highest suicide rates included Construction and Extraction (males = 65.6; females = 25.3); Farming, Fishing, and Forestry (e.g., agricultural workers; males = 49.9); Personal Care and Service (males = 47.1; females = 15.9); Installation, Maintenance, and Repair (males = 46.0; females = 26.6); and Arts, Design, Entertainment, Sports, and Media (males = 44.5; females = 14.1).
You mean that work that took open source software, closed sourced it and refused to release the source code and the poisoning only worked against one specific open source model (stable diffusion)? I don’t think that’s going to come riding to anyone’s rescue.
yes, but Smith’s Labour hadnt been 20 points ahead for over a year with less than 2 weeks to go to the election
Worth pointing out that the author of this piece is labours campaign manager. Its absolutely in his interest to try and make out that it isnt in the bag for labour as lower turn out if people think its a done deal could be the difference between a huge and crushing victory for labour.
That said if you live in a seat where the Tories are incumbents or closest chalenger you should absolutly vote for whoever is best placed to win against them no matter what you think the result will be. They need to be crushed this election.
There is a bubble in AI, AI isnt a bubble. In the same way there was a bubble in e-commerce that lead to the dotcom crash. But that didnt mean there was nothing of value there, just that there was too much money chasing hype.
Book burnings dont remove all copies of a book from existence either. And no I dont get to decide what is and isnt art, and I dont presume to, generally if someone says something they have made is art and they’re not asking me to buy it I’m happy for them to consider it art. Also I dont go around cheering when creative works I dont like get censored.
I hardly think its whataboutery talking about the topic in question, the claims in the south China sea. Did you miss the parts where I explictly said China was by far the worst for this?
But you’ll also notice that even though this incident is outside the internationally recognised waters of the Philipines it is claimed by China, the Philipines and Vietnam. Despite not being near enough to any of them to properly claim it.
On the other hand ww2 arguably started with Japan’s invasion of China in 1937. So it is possible that the Ukraine conflict is the opening stages of ww3, but say it definitely is the start of ww3 is way overstating it.
All of those issues were provoked by China trying to exert control over coastal waters that are rightfully the property of other nations, such as Malaysia, Singapore, and the Philippines. China is a bad neighbor.
China is a bad neighbour, and fuck the CCP. But all the nations around the SCS have ridiculous claims of them controling huge swathes of water way outside their coastal waters. China is just by far the most aggressive about it.
The director, the actors, the camera crew. Take your pick
I fail to see how the director using a tool to help write a script means that everyone else involved in an artistic production suddenly loses all creative input.
I’m glad that the art decider has come to tell me what is and isnt alowed to be art. Is there any other degenerate non-art you think should be removed? We could have a bonfire.
Yes thats a sane thing to do, agree to put money in escrow until after im dead. Totally something people do.
Also YOU ARE LITERALLY SAYING EVERYONE WILL BE DEAD THERE WOULD BE NO ONE TO COLLECT
Great retort, consider me converted. Who are we censoring next for doing wrongthink?
That a viable population of humans will be alive in 2124? Sure how much do you want to bet? I think your chance of collecting from me if im wrong when im more than 120 years old are slim though.
FWIW this kind of alarmist talk only lets people write off your comment as hysterical. Humans are not going to go extinct in the next 100 years, Canada isnt going to become hotter than Arabia and become unlivable.
What we might (and even possibly the most likely scenario is to) get is wide scale societal breakdown, starvation of billions, mass migration of billions of those currently living in regions that become uninhabitable but dont starve, and the consequant resource wars that those entail. The future is bleak enough without making up even worse things that wont happen.
The author is Danish, are you so certain that this isnt just slightly awkward usage of a second laguage that you are willing to throw transphobic at them as an insult?
Israel’s navy is pretty much entirely for the purpose of enforcing a blockade on Gaza, I imagine he is quite familiar with the situation there.
I hope the anti-AI reactionaries feel good about their success of censoring a small artist.
I just dont see it. All the indicators are showing a siesmic labour victory and have been for a long time. Not just voting intention but “who do you want as a prime minister” “who do you trust on the economy/NHS/cost of living”, local elections, by-elections, a fractured right wing vote, poor recent economic performance, an extremely bad campaign by Sunak highlighting the worst aspects of the tories.
I just dont see how all that doesnt result in a huge Labour victory, the tories have even shifted their campaigning message to “dont let labour win too big and give them a blank cheque to do whatever they like”
