Remember learning about this from the crossover with fake "bowling alley animations" like https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2q6MQwsJCA4

Sure, but for me there isn't anything fundamentally different between a LLM reply and a spammers reply / SEO-vomit. Both are low quality useless junk that gives the masquerade of r…

>And you definitely don't get to tell people that your product is just fine, they are wrong for wanting something else. The original quote does that as well and I only reversed it …

Sure, but many people who are bad at art and writing would like AI to make art and writing that's tailored to their tastes and are fine doing laundry and dishes since they're good …

To me it says "Look at all this stuff you can do with an ipad now, and in a thinner form factor. It used to take a room full of stuff to do this. Isn't that awesome?". You might no…

This is interesting to me, do you know any articles about this? I feel when I put off exercise until later in the evening(after 7pm) that I often get poorer quality sleep, but I'd …

I mean.. thats the whole job for the manager? Through performance reviews and keeping track of the work their team is doing. If the senior is actually "unblocking projects" then it…

As someone who runs a small discussion forum its a great way for people who like to spam CSAM, malware, and other stuff I don't want in a way that gets past filters. I think a cons…

For who? Certainly not for the person paying.

>their car pays less rent per sqft than they do This shouldn't be surprising though. Cars don't need heating or cooling or sewage or a roof or ...

Yes, I think I'd be fine weeding out people who can't read a social situation and decide to traumadump to their future coworkers.

In many metro areas crime is higher than it was before COVID. Sure the levels may be decreasing below the 2020 peak levels, but relative to 2019 or earlier its oftentimes still hig…

No industrial revolution also means infant mortality rates of over 46%(in the US at least).

It's also not unique to AI. One person with a tractor can outharvest the amount of corn it used to take a whole village to harvest. This feels just like a dressed up luddite compla…

Are they not? Most I've seen tend to be sorts of abstract pattern matching things. As opposed to basing IQ on ability to play piano or other traits less prevalent in poor communiti…

Neat. How translatable are tones of voice for intent across languages? Like does a person trying to do a "nerdy" voice(nasally, whiny, etc.) in English translate to the "nerdy" ste…

Yep, wish there was a good up to date list of every link shortener I could block by default but instead it seems like every day some new one pops up. Probably because the last doma…

Yep first thing I do when I find a dark default site is try(uselessly usually) to find an option to switch it to light mode.

Only got halfway through this video. While it's interesting I find it exhausting how much he singly focuses on the VC financing. This is a classic case of mismanagement by senior m…

> I can always depend on these kinds of articles for the sin of omission. Unrealistic standards for women ... nevermind the standards women have for men. Yeah, but a charitable int…

How is choosing to take ownership/equity in a company in lieu of cash as compensation inherently immoral? If the complaint is about the compensation structure and not the amount. Y…

>Notepad aim for killing Notepad++ and other complex editors That seems unlikely when Microsoft is already investing so much in VSCode.

Likely trained on internal code.

Wouldn't partisans fall under the dogmatists?
