Discord and every other platform is much more willing to censor speech, even the ostensibly legal kind. Telegram's lack of proactive censorship is exactly why authoritarian cunts in Russia, Europe, and America have an axe to grind with it.
that's a reductio ad absurdum, the opposite of which would be adjusting our clocks by some seconds every day so the sun would always rise at 6:00:00 AM. both extremes are equally neat in some way and painfully inconvenient in many others.
the solution has always been adjusting the school/business hours as seen fit, not adjusting the clocks.
DST is one of those things our descendants will be baffled by the sheer stupidity of.
those people are far less numerous than you seem to believe. also, the current far right is not particularly fond of tattoos.
if they don't implement these rules ... the client will refuse to connect to the server's domain name or IP address

Imagine people deciding that the good life starts with NOT learning how to code.
you monkey pawed it.
But it’s not out of the question that the administration or Congress will eventually move to ban Chinese open-source models entirely.
yep, we can all see that by now.
every Internet community eventually gets taken over by those who spend more time online.
why not? it was hilarious to watch EU firebrands 'express concern' and 'urge restraint'. Bosnia, Iraq, Afghanistan, Libya and Syria might as well have happened on another planet in another century, but Iran is happening right now and I'm not seeing European talking heads urging American people to take up arms against their government to end this illegal (?) war.
"I support current thing" /pol/ lingo implies there is no valid reason to be against Russia's invasion of Ukraine
"I support current thing" /pol/ lingo implies their Ukraine banners were a reskin of BLM banners from a year before.
PS: The blog blanners and all that were so powerless, yet they still trigger you 4 years later?
like I said, I found them amusing, especially those custom geofences on obscure blogs. a fucking John Johnson (they/them) from Oregon oblast goes out of his way to scold Ivan Ivanov (он/им) from Orenburg oblast for something John's own country did so many times in Ivan's lifetime he'd lost count.
also, all tech-adjacent Russians had VPNs by that point because of Taliban-tier morality policing, so bypassing those blocks took an eyeroll and two clicks.
which one would be easier to convince to eat pork, a rabbi or an imam?
the article is built on the assumption that API usage via OpenRouter is representative of the total. it's not. the second wrong assumption is that American companies need to be profitable in order to command hundred billion dollar valuations. they don't. the money printer can go brrrrr longer than everyone else can remain solvent.
In Russia, "extremism" is being against Putin or the war.
In Russia, "extremism" is whatever the state decides it to be. "Give me the man, and I will find the crime" has always been its modus operandi. the last people who might have got fair trial were nobles under the Tzar.
I'm assuming the historians are the cucks in your analogy?
only the grifters who are in business of re-imagining history for the modern audience.
You are holding historians to an epistemological standard that I am confident you don't hold anybody else to. Whether intentionally or not, you're muddying the waters to undermine their expertise. Why?
why shouldn't I? historians do not deserve unconditional veneration, no one does. for every serious historian there are two dozen creative writers who can produce a thousand pages about everyday life in in Egypt 6000 BCE.
history is a very soft science. ancient history in particular is equivalent to trying to divine how the stars and planets millions of light years away look based on fifty bytes of real data from a telescope.
BERT is not an LLM, it's an encoder-only model, i.e. it doesn't generate new text. the first somewhat useful publicly accessible LLM was GPT-3 with 175B params, and it was also the last frontier model whose parameter count was disclosed.
as a Russian, I'm still waiting for EU/UK/AU/NZ/CA/JP/etc to impose sanctions upon the US over the previous illegal war :)
Porter and Machery found that people were more likely to call AI poems human, than they were to call human poems human
poetry is an outlier because most human poetry is meaningless pretentious dogshit that even GPT-3.5 could easily excel at generating. it's regular prose where their uncanny valley tone is immediately apparent to anyone who's been dealing with them for a while. all models are being trained to be bland, inoffensive sycophants, and you can't defeat their nature even with a 50k token system prompt.
all history from 2000+ years ago is bad history. neither the chud nor the cuck vision of classical antiquity is anywhere near accurate. entire decades get extrapolated from a few surviving bits written a century after the events. every sentence in every history book about that era implicitly comes with "We assume that..."
Someone asked me if I prefer using Claude or ChatGPT for my creative writing projects.
oh don't be coy, you just wanted to post an "AI bad" article, which is the most trending topic on bearblog.
for those who are actually interested in the subject, there's https://eqbench.com/creative_writing_longform.html
Without comparison, I don’t buy the “dating recession.” The shift that is occurring is less about a generation’s willingness to date and more about the collapse of the infrastructure that used to move people toward each other on the basis of tacit knowledge rather than marketing.
yes, and that infrastructure can't be replaced with those well-meaning-but-irrelevant apps the article mentions.
the root causes of population decline can't be fixed.
that's just how their women sound to us. cutesy anime girls are voiced by aunties over 30.
China, Russia and Others Appear to Have Editorial Control Over Two Thirds of US Legacy Media Outlets.
if your classifier had classified anything other than that comment (clearly satirical, come the fuck on) and the deleted attempts to get it past your spam filter, then it is a touch too sensitive.
Medicine. Pharmacists, doctors, nurses and other prescribing clinicians will have a role
not safe from AI. AGI could handle 80% of healthcare much better than overworked and/or indifferent and/or incompetent meatbags.
Education and early years. Childminding is one of the careers least likely to be replaced by AI
early years - sure, but once the child doesn't need constant supervision, AGI can do better than than overworked and/or indifferent and/or incompetent meatbags who are often minding 40+ kids at once.
hell, the models we have now are already sufficient.
Law. As AI lowers the cost of delivering legal services … more jobs could be available
what
Hospitality. Human-to-human connection, should not be replaced by AI
an empty platitude doesn't make it less wrong
Trades. Hands-on trades such as bricklaying or carpentry offer career opportunities
the only correct answer, but while it is 'safe from AI', almost every Western country imports millions of people that aren't qualified to do anything but unskilled trades, so good luck.
Banking and finance. Demand should rise for data scientists and AI engineers
data science and AI engineering is not 'banking and finance'.
now let's dig up some old timey polls and see how the greatest generation felt about the issues you hold dear :)
Millionaire Bloodsuckers Seethe in Impotent Rage as Their Own Blood Gets Sucked by Trillionaire Bloodsuckers.
@cindyllm ah, I see. very well, shine on you crazy diamond.
the reverse side of that medal is that in 'most of the world' EMS quality is ass.
yes, but its overwhelming urge to regulate the life out of everything drives it to smother its own babies in the crib.
@cindyllm you're shadowbanned, bro. only those with showdead=on can even see your posts, and no one can reply. have you never found it strange that no one ever replies to you? lmao.
It is the same reflex every time: more regulation, more state, less market, less competition. It is an approach that has served Germany rather well for explaining decline, and rather poorly for reversing it.
that's EU's approach as a whole, not just Germany's.
