This is irony. The study is stupid, society has reached a stupid stage of development. Kiki and bouba explain nothing and serve nothing. Culture is in shambles.

Believe it or not: This is pure and unadulterated advancement of civilization.

Maybe Electron isn’t that bad. Maybe there are some great Electron apps. But there’s a big chunk that went unsaid: Most Electron apps suck. Does correlation here imply causation? Maybe not, but holy fuck isn’t it frustrating to be a user of

This is not a moral judgement. It doesn’t even matter from which pocket the money is coming from.

Incorrect. It’s mostly just work.

Because you’re aiding exploitation either way. It’s the same machine, just another part of it.

I should just read Wittgenstein.

My adversary has accused me of sophistry. As if I’m just a crafter of kaleidoscopes. I’m just giving back the compliment by calling out their romanticism. Charity work can bring momentary fulfillment to a person. I’m not reducing humanity b

I don’t want to be rude. This is a very nice project. But it looks like this could be replaced by going to therapy.

I don’t define anything. The truth is just that there’s no profit extraction without charity work. I’ve done lots of it. If you’ve done it, you know too. As dark as it may seem to strip romantism out of which you call humanity, not only the

To think that “non-profit” work is actually non-profit work is just to not have grasped the nature of labor. You have to ask yourself: Am I producing use values for the satisfaction of human needs or am I working on making sure the appropri

by AreShoesFeet000 8mo ago
Because even though at work it looks like you’re tasked with creating use values, you’re only there as long as the use values you create can be exchanged in the market for a profit. So every humane drive to genuinely improve your work will

How much money would it take for me to take an open weight model, treat it nice, and go have some fun? Maybe some thousands, right?

That is NOT possible.

In part, but we also actually live in the present. The ideas as being dynamically confronted with reality instead of having a fixed arrangement*. The LLM couldn’t be enhanced by dynamic training because that’s already what humans do. It’s b

The mere idea that you could derive new correspondence to an emerging reality by rearranging fragments of the past is just insane to me.

So you think that enough of the complexity of the universe we live in is faithfully represented in the products of language and culture? People won’t even admit their sexual desires to themselves and yet they keep shaping the world. Can Cha

Given the amount of vehicular accidents I think we haven’t even gone far enough and banned cars altogether.

Fair enough. I’m not really a fan of regulation. The capitalist State is a total mess, but I really think we should try your idea.

I think your reply has me convinced. You really can’t expect to have such self control all of the time. Damn.

I agree, but what would be the actual mechanism that would allow that? I believe we’re out of ideas. TikTok’s crime was just be firmly successful because of good engineering. There’s no evil sauce apart from promotional content and occasion

I just don’t think that the addiction is exclusively due to the algorithm. There’s really a lack of affordable varied options for learning trade and entertainment. We say in Portuguese: You shouldn’t throw the baby away along with the water

It’s because content curation is inherently impossible to reach the same level of relevance as direct feedback from user behavior. You mix in all kinds of biases, commercial interests, ideology of the curator, etc, and you inevitably get ir

But you can get into extremist rabbit holes independently of control surface. Remember 4chan? Dangerous content is a matter of moderation regardless of interfacing.

That’s the point though. It may seem as if you’re not in control when scrolling, but you can adjust your behavior to get the content you’re looking for almost intuitively. That’s actually something good in my honest opinion.

I literally opened Claude’s website to check for prices. I ain’t rich but I’m not really trying to go with the poor man’s AI.

I am young (29). I like computers because they are essentially something hacky. There’s nothing more hacky than Lisp IMO. I will never complain about Lisp. I just like it.
