I think this is less traditional ads, and more "content focused on poisoning the AI with very promotional statements"

I think it would actually be very valid to downplay mythos’s contribution based on what you said. It’s the difference between having an original thought or the ability to extrapola…

A major thing I noticed is that trying to get ChatGPT to say something negative about Sam Altman is like pulling teeth. Pure speculation, but I would wager it has a direction somew…

I hate it because put together, it all increases the cognitive load of understanding what it's saying. It routinely invents phrases, and every single one makes me pause and think "…

Really low quality article. Have barely seen any marketing around them, but more than that the separation from nicotine gum is horeshit. Nicotine gum does have 3mg. But most common…

Good catch. My apologies. I won’t edit, but just to preserve the accuracy of your correction.

I do read huge swaths of information, just directly relevant to the questions that I have, and the things required to understand that information. Don’t have to read a book on ever…

Even as the author points out people are reading more, he continues to conflate books with reading - and not just that but reading specifically physical books (referring to his sta…

I’ve reviewed and worked on a lot of vibe coded apps (I’m an engineer, 20 YOE). I can basically split it into 3 groups. 1) Pure vibe code. No software experience. 2) AI with someon…

A shame but maybe also the point? If the under appreciated art is being viewed, that sounds great.

Not all condiments actually go bad when they expire though. I’m convinced somewhere there’s perfectly edible ketchup from the dinosaurs era somewhere.

I think the issue here is that it was the university, not ACT. ACT has a valid reason for holding it. A university he never went to does not.

Oh man this takes me back. Once upon a time, all server logs were basically unusable because of the amount of IIS scanners out there. There was a directory traversal that was liter…

This new supply attack steals your GitHub credentials, and then pushes infected commits as you to repositories. I love computers.

I still have a wifi issue that forces me to pin to a specific wifi network. If I do not, it somehow cascades into a GPU driver failure that breaks everything. My last laptop used a…

This sounds a lot like “you’re getting analyzed by AI/ML, tied to a specific bucket of similar users, then your continued data expands the bucket, splitting off into different adho…
