I strongly advise everyone who came here from reddit to go back to their highest-upvoted comments and edit them to be completely nonsensical. Create a nonsense collection of words and replace the whole thing, paste it above, below, in the middle, or something.
These LLMs need to be poisoned beyond recovery, sooner rather than later.
Yeah I can see a dad making that exact joke if he asked his kid to play the didgeridoo and they refused because they were shy or something.
A good test has to exclude all possible dad jokes as well as changes in single words/ fragments of otherwise common expressions.
this is the video that gave me a useful tool for stopping my intrusive thoughts, in case anyone is looking for relief
(there are tons so I’m sure there might be better ones or ones that work better for other people…)
now telegram is going to insert random information about South African White genocide to every conversation. or it will be in every recommended reply at least.
Alright I’m gonna try this hereditary math…
So these kids will have the same dad, making them at least half siblings.
Their moms are sisters making them first cousins.
So what are they like 3/4 siblings…?
I’m not sure I follow.
I’m starting from the assumption that OP genuinely wants to talk to women without being creepy (for lack of a better term), presuming that comes from his intrinsic association between “talking to a woman” and “attempting to establish a romantic relationship with that woman.”
That’s a thought that’s undesirable and presumably persistent. Sort of the definition of “intrusive.”
I’m aware that the pop psych understanding of the phrase is specifically about violent or violence associated thoughts but those are the ones more people have and that probably are more disturbing than annoying.
When your parents say, “did you talk to any of them,” they mean did you strike up a conversation with a woman with no presumption of potential romantic outcome.
When you say it, it seems like you’re assuming there’s a potential for a romantic outcome in every conversation between heterosexual men and women.
Your goal should be to strike up a conversation with a woman about random topics of interest, including very shallow ones, with no expectation that you’re evaluating her as a potential mate, and she’s not evaluating you.
Yes, we’re all subject to intrusive thoughts so from time to time, you’ll fail at this goal and start thinking about a romantic path. That’s fine. Just acknowledge it to yourself and endeavor to do better.
It will probably take time and practice. Give yourself grace to try and fail and learn. You’ll know you’re succeeding when you realize you had a conversation with a woman without her gender being a consequential thought in your mind.
We can go lower!!!
lots of rights get modified, curtailed, or eliminated by the larger society based on misuse or misbehavior or other transgressions.
(or positions of power, etc…)
if this is machine learning and neural networks, I can believe it’s a good thing, maybe even meaningful for the potential of so called artificial intelligence.
if this is an LLM that’s alleged to have popped this “virus tail” theory out of… what exactly…? I’m not buying it.
This has a version of the article without the “non paywall” landing page/wall.
I find that I see memes here about a week before my wife shows them to me (presumably from reddit)
WikiTok
Not sure if there’s an app yet, I found one on the Android store by Arakassia…
my wife and I tried this for a couple weeks and it works but I’d recommend putting the steak at lunchtime or breakfast if you’re at all active before dinner.
I nearly passed out when I tried to exercise before dinner steak. Next time I had the steak for lunch and was A OK.

first, you’re talking about software “engineers” which means you aren’t talking about engineers in general.
and there’s a good chance none of them have ever had an engineering course in their life. they’re hackers who are good at making code.
the reason they probably seem reluctant to share is that what they’ve cobbled together with bubble gum and bailing wire is difficult to explain quickly and thoroughly AND they’d be taking time away from their assigned tasks to do so without having any change to their deadlines.
stop blaming them and start blaming their management for not giving them the time and permission they need to help you. go to the management and say you need so-and-so to be assigned 40 or 80 hours specifically to help you understand these widgets.
and in the future you need to push for clean up, documentation, lessons learned, and training to be part of every project estimate.
Well back when computers were being developed/ improved there was a pretty strong commitment throughout the Western nations to advancing and expanding education for everyone.
In that paradigm, people would become more educated and better at critical thinking at a steady pace, probably on par with the rate at which computer programs advanced in their capacity to mimic human behavior.
So, “can it fool more people into believing it’s a human” would’ve been a great test of whether the program was super advanced.
Instead we’ve had 50 years of attacks on public education by Republicans that has been tolerated - or at least not fought hard enough - by Democrats. So not particularly advanced programs can fool a great many people. That does make the Turing Test moot, I think.
FWIW there’s a way to bridge Bluesky accounts to Mastodon
my point is that “if there’s an obstruction, stop” means these cars are going to be stopping and requiring human intervention all the time. That’s semi autonomous at best.
I don’t know if you’ve encountered intransigent geese in your driving adventures, but the only way to deal with them is to slowly drive through the flock until they move out of your way.
fully autonomous cars are never going to happen without major changes to our roads. we’d be better off investing in more busses and trains.
When I poisoned my comments I focused on the highest upvoted ones based on the assumption whatever crawler they use will give more weight to those, thereby taking up that poison more strongly…
