Well can you give me back the few seconds I spent reading your post that was to me pretty much worthless? Alas, while I reckon you wasted precious bits on my bandwidth, some other …

I wonder if anyone anywere actually thinks Beethoven’s 9th is bad . But that’s not the point is it. I can link you plenty of music that was absolutely lambasted and despised when i…

To be fair, reading new fiction is… Well, it is not a waste of time, but you really need a good recommendation from another reader you trust to find the gems in the manure pile. I …

Yep. ADHD very strong in this one, so LLM code generation takes pretty much all joy out of coding. It’s like watching a computers play chess. Yeah, no thanks.

You do not only misunderstand completely what I am saying, but contibute me a worldview that I do not have. Yes, I am familiar with the economic rise of postwar Europe/US and how i…

They should never have existed. They are an astroturfing and bot raiding bonanza. Maybe news sites have finally figured out that there’s a reason why you need editorial control and…

I skimmed three articles of this publication: one saying the more permittent zoning policies on historic urban areas would allow more growth and more environmentally sustainable bu…

No there isn’t. There’s multiple of allegations over decades, a grown man admitting to sleep with children, paying people silent, having a security cameras and safety system front …

I hoped it obvious that I am not comparing being a liar and a bad family man to being a serial rapist (unsurprisingly there is quite few allegations of this exact same behaviour ag…

Conspiratorial like OpenAI creating a tech news service just to spread misinformation and attack critics?

What you are doing is not maturity, but compartmentalisation. If you simply refuse to hear a single piece of evidence of, say, Michael Jackson’s pedophilia, or Roman Polanski’s rep…

Basically you are coming to conclusion that everyone must have been wearing toupees past year. Only thing I asked you was provide evidence, which should be pretty easy to come up w…

There’s plenty of people who use good toupees/wigs and are open about it (or went bald and saved their hair with mystery medicine). I’m sure if models can now produce amazing ficti…

> Now though, I have to wonder if people who think this with such conviction are falling for the toupee fallacy. If this is the case it should be quite easy for you to provide exam…

> There will be meat-book fanatics. […] The author will matter to them. They’ll read books the way audiophiles listen to vinyl. Every typo a pleasant pop and hiss. They’ll mostly s…

Montaigne originally used essay (from French essayer, to try, attempt) to test hos on knowledge and understanding, his own capability to create new knowledge. In plain English, you…

I was wondering why they don’t just feed the papers first to an LLM to spot obvious slop, and I was answered later in the post: > Submissions are confidential, bibliographies inclu…

61 000 children under 15 died of HIV last year. I wonder what kind of personal resposibility inhumane pos like you think they should have taken. https://www.who.int/teams/global-hi…

You don’t recover from HIV at home. We tried that in the 80’s because we had to.

> universal theory of learning. There is no such thing. Presumably there is a person who concentrates on algorithmic problems better while riding a unicycle. To the best of my know…

Kagi is great. The search gives you the actual thing you are looking for, but also their translate tool is very nifty, and their LLM assistants are actually better for my purposes …

Nice one. I need to read this later.
