There are many types of houses in between suburbs and skyscrapers. This is "missing middle" housing. Duplexes, townhouses, small apartment buildings, etc. Look at Old Town Alexandria, VA on Google Street View, for example.
I guess for me, blatant LLM style reminds me of LinkedIn-speak. Both are distracting and come across as fake. Somehow it's more interesting to read something in another human's unique style than to read something that's obviously been passed through a filter.
Maybe a more general focus on getting students to practice critical thinking and fact-checking would be better. AI could be addressed as a small part of that, since chatbots are everywhere and students need to know how to filter out their BS.
But are NSF grants really necessary for this? To what degree is this funneling taxpayer money to buy ChatGPT subscriptions and advertise to students by getting them to use AI in the classroom?
I just read Brent Jeffs's book "Lost Boy" last year. The amount of control the church leaders exert over the people is disturbing. (Even after the top leader has been revealed as a sexual predator.)
Ouch. Imagine being let go just a few weeks from vesting. Doesn't seem fair to let someone work for months and months in anticipation of their big prize and then yank it away at the last minute.
Giving any kind of notice about layoffs while expecting employees to continue working is just bad for everyone.
The employees stress out about whether they're going to be impacted. Nobody gets much work done as they update their resumes and prepare for the worst. The best people start looking for other opportunities and find them. If specific employees are told they're going to be laid off, some seek revenge.
Much better to immediately notify those impacted, revoke their access, give them generous severance instead of expecting them to work, and let everyone else know they're safe.
Maybe they could be kept on the payroll without access to actually work.
But the real problem is any law that would deport someone 30 days after they were laid off, even if they had been working for years. That should be 6 months minimum.
I've seen this type of thing with OsmAnd too. My hypothesis is that someone messed up when drawing the map, and made the offramp an extension of the highway. But I haven't actually verified this.
It was gonna cost 1 million of your tax dollars to build the levee protecting your house, but we're saving you money by building it out of sticks. We'll send a dude out to throw a few more on every few days.
Yo, we decided to build a dam in the creek behind your house. We're not sure what the impact will be on your house and backyard, so watch out. You've got three days, construction has already started.
