$60,000 balance seen on an EBT card
“The largest that I've heard about is right at around $60,000 on an EBT card. Nobody's going hungry in that house, obviously.”
“One of the ways that people commit food stamp fraud or SNAP fraud is you get a card and it's got a certain amount of value to it, then you sell it for less than the value of what you can buy in terms of food, but you sell it for cash.
It creates incentives for people to, number one, acquire as many cards as possible, number two, to keep as high a balance on these cards as possible.
I've seen cards as much as $20,000, this was on an EBT card.
So how does that happen
— People are just kept on the program for years, and they keep rolling these balances up and whether they're using the card or not. they're supposed to get rid of it and expunge the benefits after 9 months.
But if all you go and do is buy a stick of gum once every 9 months, your balance in your card, even if you're no longer on SNAP, that card is still good.
It's happening across the country. In fact, the largest that I've heard about is right at around $60,000 on an EBT card. No- nobody's going hungry in that house, obviously.”

BTW, wikipedia literally deleted the valid definition of “non sequitur” from their pages,
— And replaced it with just some BS about comedy?
Wtf
Wordcel redefining of all basic words continues
Literally redefining the common phrase for “bad argument”

"the evidence sides with the civilians, making this one area where laypeople have a firmer grasp on reality than many alleged experts – and one area where academia seems to impair people’s understanding of the world rather than improving it."

Wasted all of yesterday on this horsesh&t Codex constantly lies that it can see images, when really it’s not multi-modal at all, and instead at best does a tool call to crudely convert images and questions about images into text, which works absolutely horribly…
So yeah like I was saying,
Even the latest AIs shockingly horrible at basic UI-modification tasks
Really really bad
They can make a great first draft, but are horrible at making vision-based modifications
My best guess?
Vision AIs, since the dawn of time, have always been architecturally regularized for:
(1) scale invariance
(2) position invariance
I.e. their architecture was intentionally made such that they literally cannot see difference in size or position, which leads to all kinds of other problems too, like being unable to count objects in an image well, etc
Today’s UIs unfortunately shockingly bad at many basic real-world vision tasks, while being shockingly great at other vision tasks
Would bet that the above is why
Should be fixable, but seems the big AI companies haven’t even really tried yet

The study being cited here is clear:
Tariffs "lower inflation" by tanking the economy.
Yes, you can lower prices if people no longer have salaries to pay for things with. But let's not do that.

The sad reality is that most women's "beauty" decisions are trend-driven - without much, or any, serious thought about beauty behind them. For instance, thigh-highs are $5 and few women wear them; tattoos are much more expensive and look terrible, but many women get them anyway

This school's covering something up big time
Why would a school be entitled to take a student's phone because they disliked the student's view in an ethics class?
What kid would jump under threat of having their phone taken?
