There are things you can manage, but they tend to be about controlling your environment.

JD Vance is the perfect example of someone that benefited from the military. Fit in (and let’s be honest being a straight white male still helps). Find a job that involves sitting behind a desk. Get some experience pulling a 9-5 for a few years, and then go to university for free. Don’t get injured. Don’t get PTSD.

All of this attitude with a capital A is too late. You can’t Attitude yourself out of a missing leg, and you can’t Attitude yourself out of PTSD. You can learn to cope better but coping well with PTSD is still worse than not having it.

Either have a plan to avoid danger or you need to be lucky.

1. Fuck those things.
2. The main problem with them is not just the software, which is awful, but that it means you’re working at Amazon.

This is probably a near copy of a forum post where a user was channeling fight club and trying to be funny. The same as the putting glue on pizza thing.

And guardrails don’t work very well. They’re good at detection tone but much worse at detection content. So an appropriately guardrailed LLM will never call someone a “fucking ######” but it’ll keep telling everyone that segalis have an IQ of 40 until there’s such a PR backlash that an updated is needed.

Ok, but could you take him instead?

He probably won’t be able to do as much damage if he’s out the country.
