Maybe when you “blah blah” someone’s whole argument, that should be a sign you aren’t engaging in a great way…

Rights aren’t limited by geographic distinctions, if you’re a human you have rights (or don’t, as is the case here).

Yeah, labor. The team needed to manage the variety of infrastructure required to provide the same functionality and availability as the various AWS services we use would have been well beyond prohibitively expensive.

For my tiny startup, the cloud is two to three orders of magnitude cheaper. We could not exist were it not for the cloud, AWS in particular. Last week I had a call with the AWS support team helping me get some costs under control with impr

I try not to partake in tinfoil hattery, but this getting the upvotes that it did, in the time that it did, given the content, and compared to the demographic of the platform, might alarm some folks who care about the integrity of submissio

I think the part that terrifies "bleeding heart liberals" is the abject poverty, brutally oppressive quasi-militaristic (I say quasi given its profound ineptitude) regime, and mass starvation. I would imaging birth rates don'

The point is that there's no way to know which "7" companies will carry the bulk of the growth, so you grab some representation of "all" of them. So yeah, what you're saying is exactly how it's meant to

Anonymous commenters on the internet aren’t the trove of honest reporting you seem to think…

Driving is not “very dangerous”?

Discrimination in what? I'm not sure I understand which right the injury in the speech that would interfere with. I call you a name, have I prevented you from expressing your rights? I wouldn't think so.

Property “ownership” is nothing more than government-granted monopoly on land/object rights. But fair, once you throw out a key concept of capitalism, the whole thing kind of falls apart. Guess all the benefits of capitalism aren’t wo

I see it as there is more than one human, and when my rights and your rights come into conflict, there's moral precedence that favors non-discrimination over absolutism.

Nope, cuz I think protecting specific classes of people, grouped by involuntary traits, is important.

Yeah fair, I guess I got a bit lost in the IP argument; I believe in IP and I think people act entitled to IP that isn't theirs without thinking about what a world would look like if that were generally how people behaved. BUT yeah the

I couldn't disagree more strongly. Artists can create the content you love because they get paid to do so. Without IP, these artists do not get paid, and therefore cannot create the content you love, full stop. The only reason you&#x

Sorry but yes, the consumer's only option is to take it or leave it. You are not entitled to the product of someone else's work. I see this as the very definition to entitlement; that you must be allowed to use something, eve

Oh yeah it's for sure valid to criticize people for exercising their freedoms, but it's not okay to prevent them from doing so. My pet peeve however is, "They shouldn't do that" very often leads to, "We shoul

Privatized censorship is also known as the freedom of association, and a fundamental right both legally in the US, and morally as an inherent human right.

The whole reason you can't do those things you believe you should is because you agreed that you'd give up your right to do those things. Stop giving your rights away! You do have those rights, until you agree to give them up.

I wish your view wasn't so negatively moderated here, because I think it's the only view that results in the quality and quantity of content that we now take for granted. It's weird to me that folks now feel entitled to conte

Let's reverse the question; do you see anything that explicitly grants them permission to feed emails into an LLM?

by Zetice 4y ago
Maybe you didn't mean to but your comment did indeed equate the two.

The person I replied to did.

Being racist and being trans are not equivalent...

> And as part of their agreement, they can do pretty much whatever they like with those, can't they? What? No haha, they aren't able to read your emails or use them as training data for an LLM.

Bluesky is building AT, what mastodon should have been. That will kill Twitter in a way that’s at least new. Not sure how to solve the HOA problem though…

Super duper no, could not more strongly disagree. Practice is not the same as performance, as in practice you ignore the outcome and focus on specific aspects of your skill. If you practice with the full outcome in mind all the time, you
