  • It really depends on how many spoons I have to work with that day. Most days are comfort. The vast majority even. But sometimes I just want to feel pretty put the effort into an outfit and makeup. I don't think I try to dress for impact very often. I dress for myself, not others. Unless maybe I had an interview or something where the other person's impression of me would be unusually impactful on my life.

  • "Flagrant security lapse caused an incident when software engineer uses inappropriate tool for the job."

  • You could have simply ignored the post and moved on with your life. But you wrote this instead.

  • It never ends, does it?

  • Right? He can go to the hot place for all I care. If there is an afterlife he's certainly not hanging with the likes of Betty White or Mr. Rogers.

  • It just blows my mind that things got to the point where we have to seek a privacy focused not-internet-connected keyboard when that should have been the default all along.

  • of AI and telemetry in Windows 11

  • Elon Musk doesn't care about chatgpt killing people either. He's just marketing.

  • Just double checked, and no they are very much talking about LLM's. Specifically they were testing gpt-4o, gemini-1.5, llama-3.1, sonnet-3.5, and opus-3 o1. https://arxiv.org/pdf/2412.04984 And the concerns raised in that paper are legit, but not indicative of consciousness or intent.

  • It's wildly difficult to control the output of the black box and that's hardly llms showing signs of self-preservation. These cries are from people in the industry trying to pretend the models are something that they are not, and cannot ever be. I do agree with the sentiment that we should be prepared to pull the plug on them though, for other reasons.

  • Hi fives and hugs for keeping it together! And for keeping this community going. It's a bright light in the dark

  • We cleared out my hoarder parent's room so my brother and his kids could move back in with us. My father took ill and was hospitalized for over a week during the madness. On Christmas Eve we had to call 911 for my mother. She's got a major infection and is being treated for sepsis. I am the only adult in our family that can drive. I got the christmas dinner together (My brother helped a TON.) and kept everyone going. I've made dozens of trips to and from the hospital between my parents in the last 3 weeks. I AM SO TIRED. But everyone is alive and mending. I think I did ok.

  • “This has never been about politics,”

    Coward. It absolutely was, and is, about politics. The misinformation has ALWAYS been political. Countering misinformation is inherently political. As someone who's very existence is considered "political" I politely suggest we drop the apolitical angle and start getting fucking angry and aggressively political. I'm very glad there are organizations out there like his that are doing that work. Just be honest about it.

    Thank you.

  • I appreciate the offer, but I don't really want to publicly elaborate _

  • Brendan would never hurt a fly!

  • For now.

  • Thank you <3 I don't feel cheerful, just anxious and tired. Oh, so tired.

  • To add to this, concept art is one of the places I would least like AI to be used in. It utterly fails at being creative and actually creating something fundamentally NEW and the more we use it the more our media will just devolve into remixed homogeneity.

    280 million e-bikes are slashing oil demand far more than electric cars. E-bikes and scooters displace 4x as much demand for oil as all of the EVs in the world.
