Sometimes you want to be Unicode-precise, such as when checking if domain names are legit.

All those Brower telemetry debates just seem oh so quaint. Here we are, streaming all our web browsing to the AI companies. The endgame is literally uploading all your life into their cloud. All your email, contacts, messages, browsing hist

If that's how you view the majority, you simply can't simultaneously be for democracy. It takes some impressive mental gymnastics to redefine democracy as one where somehow people can vote but all truth-production is centralized t

No I'm saying that people adapt, society adapts. Most people today don't shit themselves in the cinema thinking that the monster will appear among them, they understand that characters in TV series are not real and only the mental

It was easy to spread lies through print and through good old fashioned word of mouth too. No radio needed. And apropos radio, the War of the Worlds radio drama in 1938 is know to have made quite some afraid that it's real. And plenty

It's not beside the point.you can lie with words, you can lie with cartoons and drawings and paintings. You can lie with movies. We will collectively understand that pixels on a screen are like cartoons or Photoshop on steroid.

We will adjust. And guess what, before photography, people managed somehow. People gossiped all sorts of stuff, spread malicious runors and you had to guess what's a lie and what's not. The way people dealt with it was witness tes

It feels like it would make more sense to allow the model to do Levenshtein-like edits instead of just masking and filling in the masked tokens. It seems that intuitively it's really hard in this diffusion setup to just swap one word w

Yeah maybe I'm mixing up the terms a bit. There are always ingroups and outgroups. And the ingroup can't expand in an unbounded way if there's high mobility. Also,marriage patterns are relevant here. Clannish behavior is most

Big city US and entrepreneurial mobility requires formalized interactions that rely less on trust. The high trust environments put a limit to outlier performance. They are clannish, rumor and reputation driven etc. High trust environments a

You need a long time to establish trust. In European villages, if you moved to a place, and weren't born there you were considered an outsider, newcomer, and what's more, likely even the first generation who was born there was sti

by bonoboTP 1y ago
For that you need repeated interactions and reputation networks. It requires densely networked communities where defection is punished with ostracism and tainted reputation. It works in small communities that have known each other for gener

There was a ruling. But I'm generally disinterested in the US style of these debates where it's all about twisting words and creatively interpreting old laws. In functioning countries they just adopt new and clear laws.

Ok, in my world that's not a thing. Mobile data is for most people at most a few or few 10s of gigabytes, so they need to pay attention not to watch many HD videos and download big stuff. On wifi it doesn't matter. The biggest rea

> Why should I care? AI training is fair use. For pirating books, they probably calculate that the fine will be lower than their profits. Assuming you're putting videos on YouTube, you should care because they have leverage over you

This also applies to many other things, such as cars. But perhaps the timeline is shifted. But if we go earlier a bit, it was common for people to know much more about house construction, electric work, flooring, making furniture etc. IKEA

Some people spend the vast majority of their time on their own machine. The gains of convenience can be worth it. And they know enough of the classic tools that it's sufficient in the rare cases when working on another server. Not ever

It seems that after the 90s/00s MS hate, there was a period where MS was seen as the good guys, and "this isn't the same MS" etc. Seems to be turning around again.

It's a bit funny that I give Google Gemini a task and then it goes on the Google Search site and it gets stuck in the captcha tarpit that's supposed to block unwanted bots. But I guess Google Gemini shouldn't be unwanted for

This is a quite competitive market, far from monopolies. So let them do what their incentives and company culture lead them to. The reality is that often such leaders can come out net positive on a personal level even if they drive the comp

This name makes no sense. "Vibe" means you're just vibing, just taking in vague impressions, just YOLOing, hoping it works out and just chilling and providing little input and effort. It's part pejorative and part ironic
