These findings challenge the common belief that sexual orientation is biologically predetermined and unchanging throughout life.
I really don't think this is true, nor does the study even imply this.
This study captures peoples perceptions and external communication about their own identity. This doesn't get anywhere close to deep enough to say "sexual orientation can change" - just that people can be wrong about how they communicate that identity.
That is fine, and is not surprising.
Eh, even in "the real world" we still encounter blue wave lengths in the evening. I think it is a matter or reduction (aka not shoving a largely blue light source in your face) than elimination.
I'd also say, the fundamental point of it (that finite cost in life is worth the chance at infinite reward or avoiding infinite punishment) is pretty abysmal morally. Pretty easy to justify atrocities for any concept of God that way as a rational approach to life.
This is really the primary death knell for the argument. Yes, there billions and billions of "god" variations - but at least believing in one might get you a (near-zero) better chance at a decent afterlife.
...until you realize the category of "Gods who dont want your worship".
Trump is going to collapse the US as a functioning state. Crazy to want to be king of thw deteriorating ashes.
In this case, mostly being non-imposing in an "elegant" manner
Russia criticizing the US nuclear arms policy is rich, given how they have both loosened their requirements on when they would use nuclear weapons, and have repeatedly and consistently have used nuclear threats as a military strategy since their invasion of Ukraine.
I guess they have to take this position as the US at least has working armaments and not just rusted, unmaintained, weapons.
This is part of what has made Trump so successful:
He has convinced his base (and a lot of the media) that what he says doesnt matter - lying, outrageous claims, incendiary remarks. He is schrodingers politician and his positions generally are "Whatever person X wants him to be". There is also massive dissonance on Trump "telling it like it is" - despite that NOBODY holds him to his word.
Im not so sure. I think this is more of a question about taking arbitrary, undefined, or highly variable unstructured data and transforming it into a close approximation for structured data.
Yes, the pipeline will include additional steps beyond "LLM do the thing", but there are plenty of tools that seek to do this with LLM assistance.
We are so far away from "at capacity for asylum seekers".
Yes, this is what I meant to express - understanding requires exploration. Externally, this can be viewed as "changes".
