Yes, I can hear you, Clem Fandango!



Do you want the mustache on or off?
Too bad.


Humans have the ability to actually think.
That’s a stretch for an inordinate number of humans, sadly.


I still think it’s funny that he went from working at Valve as their Economist in residence studying digital markets to being the finance minister of Greece. I think the Valve job was more prestigious, especially since the rest of the EU was committed to fucking over Greece at the time.


To be fair, you can’t control what humans optimize what you’re trying to teach them either. A lot of times they learn the opposite of what you’re trying to teach them. I’ve said it before but all they managed to do with LLMs is make a computer that’s just as unreliable (if not moreso) than your below-average human.


you’ll give up your PC to rent one from the cloud

Devs, fix this exploit, pls. Cheaters taking advantage.


also sorry if the seahorse is hard to see
I am emotionally damaged and triggered from seeing this seahorse. It was a very hard thing for me to see.


Somebody is doing something and that something is naming birds awesome names.


To be fair “shortener” is a misnomer here as it can actually make a link longer in making it suspicious.
Some people just want to watch the world burn.
Technically I think that’s how all groceries start, by being farmed.
Shut the front door!
In a lot of situations it’s actually bad to use sudo because it can impact settings that make programs or file ownership go to root instead of the user.
Why settle for rare when you can grind for a legendary drop?


However, when testing the models in a set of scenarios that the authors said were “representative” of real uses of ChatGPT, the intervention appeared less effective, only reducing deception rates by a factor of two. “We do not yet fully understand why a larger reduction was not observed,” wrote the researchers.
Translation: “We have no idea what the fuck we’re doing or how any of this shit actually works lol. Also we might be the ones scheming since we have vested interest in making these models sound more advanced than they actually are.”


Bezos is so out of touch it is stupid.
Is he out of touch or has he just recognized that 50% of the economic activity is already from the top 10% of the population?
I get the feeling the wealthy have just written off the bottom 90% of society and don’t actually give a flying fuck if anything works for us or not. He knows his core sales will go to people who do have fiber at their doorstep.
Maybe we’re the ones out of touch thinking they plan on having a place for us in this world at all.


I keep getting a 502 bad gateway. Even Lemmy is more stable than this.


They launched it before for influencers to join, and I’m not sure how many did.
The return of MrBabyMan
In 2019, Gates characterized his relationship with Epstein as a ‘huge mistake’.
Probably because it was the final straw for his wife Melinda, and Gates wasn’t happy how much she would take in the divorce. Considering he was a serial philanderer and often used his position at Microsoft as a way to meet women (including Melinda!), it’s not like he respected that marriage or his wife very much, so it can’t be that he’s sad about losing her or something, so my bet is on sad he was going to lose a lot of wealth over his Epstein connections.
