do you think maybe they could have kept it up if they didn't layoff 80% of their staff because of your modding? reddit is essentially google results at this point, don't act coy.

So the article shows clearly that your graduates do the same exact thing. Grads from Harvard do it. But that doesn’t mean Harvard is telling them to do it. Job seekers are gonna be job seekers. But for you to basically stalk these grads and collect data on them…when they’re not even YOUR grads?? bonkers man. you have no place being a mod. It’s everything broken about the fucking internet right now.
This sums it up. The attitude and behaviours deemed by this man as acceptable are a highly problematic, and a contributor the cesspool that the internet has become.

> Reddit was knowingly ruined by google. Once google pushed reddit to the top of search results Ehhhhh I agree and yet also disagree (it's fun though). Yes they were ruined by being promoted by algo changes, but do I blame google directly? For me, no. It's exactly as we stated before, it's because it was so trustworthy. Individual people's personal experience with X or Y many times with good details. That earned a lo…
So then why haven’t the higher credibility people in each niche set up an alternative? Why let reddit drag down the credibility of well everyone in their niche by association. Even if it’s only a tiny bit per year, that adds up over time.

What do you mean the facts are not very hard. If you understand just a bit of LLM you will clearly identify a Distill LLM. All the point is to delete the user because he had created some incredible models beating The best proprietary models out there. The pretext was that he was a fraud and his models were not a distill but a copy. Therefor I show clearly that he was framed and his work deserves credit. I still have…
Stop gaslighting yourself via llms. You are pretty close to a delusion. I looked at the history of those supposed super models. It's literally all made up vibe llm bullshit and the people that told you so on reddit and huggingface took the time to actual proof it to you. You might be the first example of AI psychosis that I've seen in the wild. Wild.

That´s is incorrect, I demonstrated how all that is not true. The models were 100% distill and very powerful. Hard facts https://vimeo.com/1125658282 https://vimeo.com/1125657672 https://www.reddit.com/r/LocalLLaMA/comments/1o1m9nz/the_mos...
You're just wrong. Vibes are not a meaningful comparison. You can't compare different quantizations(Q4_K_M & Q4_K_XL) and also use a temp of 0.7 and use that for any meaningful comparison. All difference you notice could be either due to temp randomness or quantization differences even if the original weights are exactly the same. Also these were likely sourced differently so the quantizers could've used different qu…

Reddit has a moderation problem, and it's a big one. They've now been asked to appear in front of Congress to address concerns about politically motivated violence being incited through their platform: https://oversight.house.gov/release/chairman-comer-invites-c... Personally I believe I've seen more people in the past few years wish a politically motivated death on somebody else via Reddit, than I have anywhere else…
Moderation on Reddit has been questionable for a long time and its killing the site. To give some examples: - /r/energy used to ban everyone in favour of nuclear energy - If you post on /r/conservative you can expect to receive a bunch of bans from unrelated (popular) subs. Doesn't matter what you posted, being associated with that subs "taints" your account enough for some moderators. - /r/UnitedKingdom banned me fo…

#419I'm going to focus on the MODERATION ACCUSATION first since that seems to be the main issue. What moderating r/codingbootcamp actually looks like: I don't own the sub - I report to the owner who asked me to help after I'd been one of the most active and helpful contributors. The coding bootcamp industry is absolutely infested with astroturfing. Brand new accounts, manufactured conversations, fake testimonials. It's c…
Thanks for your side. I hate fake reviews by competitors. But I read the article myself, and it seems exaggerated. It did read like a hit piece, and did feel ironic. This was before I even read your response. I don't know who's saying the truth, but it's never too late to better one's self. So that's the advice to myself and you.

#420I'm french I was banned from the France subreddit for saying Hamas fighters dress as civilians. The problem of Reddit goes beyond astroturfing. It's a judge jury executioner problem. Moderation is the most expensive problem of online platforms.
