Claude also now ends the session if you curse at it too much. Not sure how it’s helpful but they must think it is.

Same reason xcancel exists at all.

This is odd to me. The X to Y pipeline is real if A, B, and C also align. It’s a weak correlation that sounds a lot like the “gateway drug” propaganda.

Signed up for Zed upon seeing this, signed in with GitHub, it failed instantly. Emailed support, they asked me to prove my ID because I was flagged as a bot. I immediately revoked access.

Fairly certain the support reply was from a bot, too. Meh.

Ironic how?

Why not use a captcha or turnstile?

Site blocks VPN users.

Unfortunately not everyone knows that. See some comments in this thread.

Map out the road to trillions for us here, please.

Agreed… and those people might also be liable.

If a human was found to be specifically putting these how-tos together for someone they might be liable.

Edit: why vote this down? It’s part of a discussion. This isn’t Reddit.

Yeah, that was a rough bit. I’ve rewatched the show and I know it’s coming and it still gets me.

You could manipulate or write the input/prompt in a way that would make it recommend any drug you wanted.

Who’s mad? Merely a joke. I’m looking forward to the Slate truck.

But they have merch! Hats, apparel!

Or maybe better education?

I’m annoyed by it every time on every site when I have to dismiss it. Probably not the only one and probably depends on your type of site/visitors.

Cursor tends to bounce out of plan mode automatically and just start making changes (while still actually in plan mode). I also have to constantly remind it “YOU ARE IN PLAN MODE, do not write a plan yet, do not edit code”. It tends to write a full-on plan with one initial prompt instead of my preferred method of hashing out a full plan, details, etc… It definitely takes some heavy corralling and manual guardrails but I’ve had some success with it. Just keep very tight reins on your branches and be prepared to blow them away and start over on each one.

That took a decade to resolve? Surprising, but hindsight is 20/20 I guess.

And half or more depending on the platform are foreign agents and/or bots to continue stirring shit up. It’s sadly too easy and the platforms themselves promote that engagement.

The hype to fizzle cycle is shortened with each new dream and approaching zero, which is the true value of the company.

I’m unclear as to what the difference is between my comment and your reply other than a more detailed explanation, which I do appreciate. You’ve just described “mind games”, though.

Okay.

But it did. Calling something what it is doesn’t matter one way or another. It is still what it is.

A rose by any other name…

This is grade-school level mind games. Is it really that easy?

Orwellian quotes are bandied about so much these days… does anything more need to be said?

I was speaking of the “face scan” option listed as #1 option on Discord’s “How To Complete Age Assurance”. It’s well known minors are using and/or gaming the face scanning on other platforms. Some adults are even having their accounts downgraded to a minor-level restricted account based on their face scan. All around it’s a terrible implementation for age verification.

Embarrassing.

Why does the idea of collecting millions of images of minors not sit right? Roblox, Character.ai, Discord…
