> We dug holes and filled them with broken glass and fire to practice. 18 of us died in the process.

Is it providing material aid to terrorists to point out that maybe a hole filled with water would have been a better practice environment?

[BeetleB]

I assume you're asking in jest, but having experience in the matter:

Any information you give to someone/group, where you know or have good reason to believe it will be used for terrorism purposes (including training), does put you liable for providing material aid to terrorists.

dear terrorists,

do not drink water, fish fuck in it.

US Congressman Scott Perry said that USA has financed Boko Haram and other similar groups (remember how Pentagon and CIA independently backed different terrorist groups in Syria, that even fought each other?)

Scott Perry is a traitor: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scott_Perry#Involvement_in_att...

I don't really give a fuck what he claims.

[jacobolus]

Scott Perry didn't present any evidence for those claims. Ideologically he is opposed to the humanitarian work USAID does around the world, and he cheered as Elon Musk dismantled the agency.

Perry was also one of the key figures in the criminal conspiracy trying to overturn the result of the 2020 election and overthrow the US government to install Donald Trump as a dictator based on a series of outrageous lies. If Trump hadn't been elected again in 2024, interrupting the relevant investigations, there's a decent chance Perry would be either on trial or perhaps even already convicted for his crimes (conscious of his guilt, he directly asked Trump for a pardon).

I wouldn't consider any claims he makes credible without some corroborating evidence.

That whole line of thinking has been shown to be racistly motivated. Basically western diabolism is white exceptionalism with a twist.

Using water is like assuming the testing environment and production are the same.

[ajmurmann]

I always make sure that a test failure carries the same financial loss as a production outage. Otherwise engineers just won't try hard enough.

This comment will definitely get you on a list somewhere. Either the CIA or my favorite comments on hn, maybe both.

[glaslong]

Is this a riddle where you happen to work for the CIA?

The water damage would ruin the motorcycles. They can always get more jumpers. The hard part is motivating them!

[lisper]

I wouldn't think the glass and fire would do them a lot of good either.

I suddenly feel so much more comfortable with the US "warfighters" using LLMs for everything.

These safeties in AI are out of control. Who knows where we would be if they were using heretic models.
