@yourdailybirds @libsoftiktok When you put properties of the person above ability, which is the only way to artificially raise the percentage of people with a given property, then your average skill level goes down.

@revswebdesign @MelindaBChu1 @aakashgupta You know you can propagate trees through cuttings or grafting onto established root stocks and not only plant seeds? You CAN buy and plant trees when they're grown and many shade trees grow quite fast. So maybe less snarky next time, my botanical genius.

Let me explain exactly why every new subdivision in America looks like the top photo, because the math is wild. A mature tree increases a home's value by 7 to 19 percent. On a $400,000 house, that's $28,000 to $76,000. A single shade tree produces the cooling equivalent of ten room-size air conditioners running 20 hours a day. One tree on the west side of a house cuts energy bills by 12 percent within 15 years. The bottom photo is worth more, costs less to live in, and sells faster. This has been documented by the University of Washington, Clemson, Michigan State, and the USDA. The data is not in dispute. Removing those trees saves the builder roughly $5,000 per lot. Concrete trucks need twice the dripline radius of every standing tree. Utility trenches need flat ground. A bulldozer flattens 200 lots in an afternoon. Preserving trees adds weeks and thousands per home. So the developer pockets $5,000 in savings and the buyer eats $50,000 in lost value for the next two decades. The person making the decision and the person paying for it have never been in the same room. The Woodlands, Texas is the proof of what happens when they are. George Mitchell bought 28,000 acres of Houston timberland in 1974 and preserved 28% as permanent green space. He forced McDonald's to build behind the tree canopy. That McDonald's became one of the highest-volume locations in Texas. The first office building, designed to reflect the surrounding forest so you couldn't see it from the street, leased completely. The Woodlands median home price today: $615,000. Katy, a comparable Houston suburb that clear-cut: $375,000. Named #1 community to live in America two years running. Fifty years of data. The trees are worth more than removing them saves. Developers clear-cut anyway because they sell the house once and leave. You live in it for 30 years.

@aakashgupta The owner could also plant a tree when they buy the house though. Why would it be the developers responsibility to plant trees? Some people don’t want trees. Clearly b/c they never bought them.

You started with "Let's say that's true." It is true, Grok specified, so do some reading. Not all of us FABRICATE reality. Get this though, revolutionary idea, how about we all try to not be c***s. Let's not be racist, doesn't take much to be somewhat a decent human being rather than generalising an entire race to suit your own agendas. Check yourself man, you may have issues. Oh remind me again? What was the race of the majority of the last shooting events? Oh that's right...not black.

Grok goes fully woke. This is what $33 per month (billed annually) premium Grok gets you now. No longer are you allowed to make artistic renderings of at-large crime suspects.

@elonmusk @NatCon2022 Na, Elon, it says he repeatedly asked. That's not okay, I get making something once or twice, but it specifically says "Repeated Requests". This ain't a woke thing, this is just the dude being a horrible person and a serious racist.

@GarbageDudes @PeterDiamandis AI is 100% derivative. It’s not creating anything new, it just digests what the humans created before and spits it out. So there’s an in-built limit to how much it can be used even for graphic design (which is the most logical use of it), since people tend to get bored quickly.

For years, we were told that robots would take blue-collar jobs first. Instead, AI came for office work and other creative jobs first.

@JulieSimone15 @PeterDiamandis Why would you say that? Nobody is going to hire graphic designers, for example, when AI can whip it up in 10 seconds. Sure, it might be trash, but it's free trash.

If you decide to run your info through it - or any other public LLM - you can convert the PDF to text and then find/replace all the names/SSNs/addresses/phone #'s. Grok can work with it even if the formatting is gone. I will be doing many filings for John and Jane Doe this year.

@zipthwung @StateDept Illegal aliens aren't allowed to get ITINs, and there's no reason they ever would, hence "undocumented".

It costs the American taxpayer over $18,000 on average to remove an illegal alien from the United States. Our expanded visa bond program will save U.S. taxpayers up to $800 MILLION per year while drastically reducing the number of illegal visa overstays.

@GarbageDudes @StateDept Even those paid “under the table” contribute via ITIN-reported income, sales taxes, and Social Security—so the idea they pay nothing is false.
