I have search enabled 100% of the time with ChatGPT and would never go back to raw-dogging LLM citations. O3 especially has passed the threshold of “not always annoying”. Had an argument with Gemini yesterday where it was insisting on some hallucinated implementation of a function even while giving me a GitHub link to the correct source.

- Orygin 1y agoLanguages evolve and words get new meanings all the time.
- genewitch 1y agoYeah the meaning was what I said until about 2 weeks ago when someone went viral talking about air travel without a cellphone. Do vulgarities often become accepted?
- javcasas 1y agoAre we allowed to say "sex" or "kill"? Or do we have to start s*lf-c*nsoring everything? Anyway, my last search to how to un-alive children processes gave me nothing. I wonder if those m*n pages are actually wr*tten by pr*f*ss*n*ls.
- genewitch 1y agoalgospeak originated on Tiktok, with all that implies. You couldn't post videos about sexual assault, suicides, murders, any of that directly, so people started self-censoring and using words - unalive maybe came from Deadpool in 2013? I'm not real interested in the actual etymology right now. and you jest but there's been pushes to change things like "master/slave", "kill", "whitelist/blacklist", and the like to something different. I don't know how much traction, and i may have been tricked by april 1st posts or something.

- piva00 1y agoSome of them do, yes. Tone policing has always been around as well, just surprises me to happen in an online forum about "vulgarities".
- genewitch 1y agoI apologize if it came off as tone policing. "Raw dog" sounds innocuous, if a bit strange. There was a radio station that had an internet stream out of Topeka Kansas called "Raw Dog Radio" that was a comedy station/stream; as an example - but it was a direct reference to the sexual connotation. For people who don't know, and notice that "raw dogging" is entering zeitgeist, maybe they'll say it because it sounds silly. It was merely a warning about what it means. The "definition shift" really isn't, people are comparing taking a flight without water, cellphones, etc to sex without a condom (Doesn't matter, flew through the air at hundreds of miles per hour, don't care!) The person i replied to was comparing using an LLM without RAG to risky sex. I'd also avoid saying "So. How are we going to fuck this pig?" in a meeting about infra problems.
- wesselbindt 1y agoAre you being paid to post here? They're giving me nothing. Cheapskates.
- genewitch 1y agoif this refers to how often i post in bursts, i have wicked insomnia. I really should remove my credentials from the HN app on my phone. if this is what you meant, you're the first person to call me out!
- Terr_ 1y agoI wouldn't use it in a workplace either, perhaps not at all, but here is a pseudonymous forum. The expectations—or repercussions—of decorum aren't the same.
- thom 1y agoI think the usage and all its connotations are perfectly cromulent here.
