Thinking about it more, I think a big part of it is that correct answers are not a limiting factor for me it feels like. Claude is good enough and it is more what to do with all these correct answers is my problem. I am also naturally biased to a model if paying for it.

All western man's "problems" to me seem to be the want of utopian trade offs that we get all the upside of a trade off without trading anything and then complaining when that doesn't happen in reality.

In reality, what was good enough yesterday, is expected today and not good enough tomorrow. Exactly the chemical reaction that causes progress.

Of course, it is their job to try to upsell you insurance.

In the US though, the insurance is completely reasonable if you want to have no risk. Drop the car off with no risk of a ding or scratch for a few bucks.

Framing it like the mafia loan sharking is completely absurd.

There is such a disturbing element of society that seems to want to "save democracy" by any means necessary. By "save democracy" they mean get the election results they want, in other words it has nothing at all to do with democracy.

They just want power.

"We should ban advertising so the people I agree with can have absolute power" is really what these insane people are saying.
