Thirteen years ago, a Brooklyn man’s child molestation conviction pierced a veil of silence in the ultra-Orthodox Jewish community,
where many people who dared to report sexual abuse were shunned, expelled from schools and had businesses ruined.
Now the man, Nechemya Weberman, an unlicensed therapist who was sentenced to 103 years in prison, could be on a path to freedom.
Mr. Weberman, 67, is scheduled to appear in court next month, with a judge set to decide whether to comm…

"But but we also thought animals were pure machines and didn't have sentience!!!!"
This is like a set of nested dolls of logical fallacies:
0. (Preamble) Being wrong before doesn't mean other people are wrong right now.
1. Just because you were wrong about animals not being machines doesn't mean machines aren't being machines.
2. You're actually not talking about machines, but about algorithms (who happen to be running on a machine, but could just as well be calculated manually by a human).
3. LLM models themselves aren't even an algorithm—they're literally just a large number of large numbers.
So what you're really asking is "Can many llarge numbers be concious and sentient?"
This answers itself.

"All of which suggests Americans-or at least a majority of them-see something extraordinary happening right now."
"Republicans…try to diminish… 'No Kings' rallies…something that’s very real to l…

Republicans are ridiculing ‘No Kings.’ A striking new poll shows Americans aren’t laughing
New polling reinforces how much the thrust of the “No Kings” message has resonated with much of the American public.

Climate scientists and meteorologists are sounding the alarm after White House budget director Russell Vought announced the Trump administration will break up the National Center for Atmospheric Research in Boulder, Colorado, known as NCAR. “He is executing the playbook of Project 2025,” says Michael Mann, scientist and co-author of Science Under Siege.
