I'm transgender. I transitioned 17 years ago. Sometimes I call myself a t-word or tranma (because I transitioned a long time ago I'm only in my early 30's so I guess I have a few years before I'm a literal granny :'[). Should I get canceled because I said the t-word in a gay bar with my besties or when I joke around with my husband and say things like "this is what you get for marrying a t-word"? No. But it's also us…
« AI doesn’t get an n-word pass » Even a black AI ? See how the situation is turning ridiculous ? Of course an AI should be able to say any word as long as the context makes it clear that it’s not actually insulting anyone. Racism, phobia of all sorts, insults, offensive discourses, hate is all part of human nature, and human history. You can’t live without the bad sides of humanity, and you most certainly won’t eras…

Utah just banned transitioning youth. Google is your friend, no need to guess.
The fact that two people responded with two different answers shows that guessing is required. Indirectness is popular with these types of topics, and I don't understand why. It's almost like it's used to preemptively set up a fight, with responses similar to yours, like "Well, you're not paying attention" or "How could you not know?". It's not useful, to anyone.
It seems that any criticism of the republican leadership results in a horde of bigots mass flagging and downvotes which then prevents me from responding to attacks and responses.
Dealing with the bullshit and falsehoods always takes a lot more time than it takes to discredit facts, and HN’s approach with flagging does not help.
As a matter of fact, I had a comment where i paraphrased Popper almost word for word regarding the paradox of tolerance, and then quoted Trump saying he wants to outlaw trans people, and i got flagged.
It took for @dang to come and unflag me.

The claims were "outlaw all trans people and force them to detransition" and "trans people have died at the hands of bigots". The Utah law "prohibits health care providers from providing hormonal transgender treatments to minors and those not diagnosed with gender dysphoria".[1] That's not the same thing at all.

That’s simply a single edge jump from “Utah GOP” to GOP.

Let us not forget certain fascists who claimed they’d outlaw all trans people and force them to detransition. Let us not forget how many trans people have died at the hands of bigots.
There is a certain irony to decrying attacks on trans ideology dogma as "fascism" while defending censorship. It is not through silence and imposition that healthy social order changes. Demands are made while little public discourse has even taken place and the more friction that creates the more those demanding feel vindicated, the more rejection fosters. It seems like rather than changing hearts, the trans movement…
I didnt support censorship either. You created a strawman that i couldnt respond due to the sheer volume of downvotes.
I support people expressing their thoughts freely so that I know who is dangerous, and who is not. Who has a disdain for my mere existence, and who is willing to stand in support of minorities.
The reality is that bigots will only get emboldened, as they have, and it’s not due to censorship, it’s due to strawmans and falsehoods pushed by prominent bigots.
I merely pointed to bigots killing people, and to prominent politicians who embolden the bigots, and rally them under a false flag, under a supposedly “holy” cause, under the so-called protection of conservative values.
Shame on you, for jumping to conclusions and creating strawmans.

Oh good statistics. Tell me what proportion of sexual violence is perpetuated by trans women against non trans women? Or what kind of sexual violence is committed by men against women in unisex bathrooms? Or perhaps a study on whether the belief that forbidding trans women from entering women’s bathrooms would materially alter sexual violence rates at all? Because virtually all sexual violence is not a random on the…

Largely the point being that this sample would only include prisoners with serious long punishment crimes, like sex crimes. It’s hardly a random sample.
Probability of sex crime given you’re in prison for a serious crime is not a reliable indicator of baseline probability of a sex crime.

It explains how additional data including from later years, and from New Zealand, supports the observation that these men are more likely to be in prison for sex crimes than men in general, and much, much more likely than actual women.

In my mind, if I look at a drop-down and "model D" is down but "model C" is up and I need the API running NOW, I'm going to change the option to the one that's working. That being said, every company I've been at with a production outage has gone into "fix it and ask questions later" mode. Maybe other companies have more process? But when you put it like you said in your comment, it does feel more weighty
In contrast the (non-AI) companies I've worked with have a rigorous change release process which includes impact assessments, back out plans, getting multiple sign offs including QA testing and post-release testing, etc.

I don't think these debates are about meaning or intention any more. The closest I can get to succinctly is they behave more like group-based politeness laws.
except it would be perfectly acceptable for a comedian on stage to say fuck or cunt, provided the context makes it funny.
