There is vastly more toxic behaviour on Facebook, it's not even close. If there's a severity to toxicity then perhaps 4chan can peak at a 9/10 whereas Facebook posts peak at a 7/10…

As kindly as I can, your comment is 100% the irrational behaviour. Everyone who's replied thus far has fallen into the same trap, you saw money and you forgot the value of the actu…

He wants the thing. He does not value the thing at 1300 dollars so he would not buy it for 1300 dollars. He found it for a lower value, he kept it because the point at the start wa…

Isn't the point that we don't grow the good varieties any longer because they don't survive freight? It doesn't matter if you bought the tomato seeds from Harrods and grew them in …

You're equating subreddits to forums but on forums people recognised other posters and the average subreddit poster will never read the same username twice, if they even notice the…

This is a phenomenal example I hadn't even considered, because I have been affected by this kind of "invisible hand of the market" negative quality spiral. The older generation her…

Not that user but I don't think this is as difficult as you're making it out to be? On Reddit, Instagram, Tiktok et al I can create a community on that platform. I can get find oth…

Is it not clear at this point that the real issue is how lacking the term "social media" even is? We have people here arguing that BBSs were social media, it will not be long until…

Other possibilities: * The people are not fine with bad strawberries but have no other choices available * The people are not fine with bad strawberries but can't afford better cho…

There's an NPC who walks you to the pokemart and gives you a potion. For me that dialogue was something like "You receive a !" and it then said "You place it in the 23 pocket" -- s…

Tons? Hyperbole? Are they teachers or something? That amount of leave in one go is basically unheard of, with the exception of maternity leave I don't know anyone who's been on lea…

You have confused 5 weeks (across a year) for 5 weeks (contiguous), this isn't speciality european confusion it's the regular garden variety.

This article goes ham on the rule of threes, it does the "not just x, but y" cliche, em-dash with spaces on either side, bold heading-sentence paragraphs, it visibly has hallmarks …

I have noticed the same uptick in bot-like behaviour there. The part I struggle to square is, why so much of it is so useless? It's maybe account laundering, but on any popular pos…

> No, it's the ultra authoritarian government stopping you from viewing it. Wish people wouldn't keep repeating this, imgur block the UK because they were caught with GDPR violatio…

> meanwhile the actual postings for RLHF work keep increasing, and the rates contractors accept keep going up If you knew this for fact you'd have something to corroborate, is this…

Those who cannot convince, coerce. I don't trust your instinct and it doesn't seem like you can provide any evidence. Shame.

This system totally works so long as you can take time off work to form a lobbying group -- this does not pass the sniff test to me. Reminder that even in the scenario that constit…

The masses seem kind of right to be in that mindset, if you consider it from thier point of view for even one second? So, yes RLHF is available right now, for people with specific …

> Wait but under that assumption - LLMs being good enough - wouldn't the maintainer also be able to leverage LLMs to speed up the review? This assumes that AI capable of writing pa…

Selimenes1 is an 11 day old account which sat silent for 10 days and then all of a sudden starts posting from today, and it's all multiple paragraph responses to threads about AI. …

If we're talking Thatcher's policies some bangers that people for some reason never bring up, she is also responsible for: * Countless (they literally didn't bother to count) death…

Around last year I was using some custom plugins for OBS, I haven't used Broadcast Box but I can pick it up to try sometime later. > If that is still too heavy, what could I do to …

My winning alternative is not to go online and be the mental health equivalent of that survivorship bias fighter plane image. "Just tell yourself to get over it" is advice that can…
