Really? In 30 years of climbing I’ve never run into territorial locals. Surfing, on the other hand, can be pretty hostile.

The lack of screen time limits on the Apple TV just demonstrates Apple's complete lack of credibility in this area too.

And the parental controls on their other devices are illogical and remarkably buggy. Clearly not a priority.

> The salt in the wounds is that universities are flush with cash, yet its spent on anything and everything except for the welfare of the students.

Maybe the elites. State schools and small colleges are not flush with cash and many have been shuttered or severely downsized recently. Though they could still spend their limited funds better.

I think of hallucinating as a phenomenon where the model makes up something that appears correct but isn’t. Citations to papers that don’t exist, for example. Regurgitating training data (which may or may not be correct) is a different issue.
