Also even if you do have good practices of semantic tagging, there are huge epistemological problems around taxonomies - who constructs them, what do the terms actually mean, how to organize them and so on. In my experience trying to work w

This is something that's been bothering me lately, it seems like ChatGPT really upped the "yes man" personality lately. I had already put my own custom instructions in to combat this, with reasonable success, but these instru

This is a bit off topic, but what do you think about people doing nitrous recreationally? It's always concerned me that people are inhaling close to pure nitrous oxide and holding it in. I've always wondered if this creates damagi

Are acid flashbacks real? I thought that was an urban myth.. I've never had one and I don't think I've ever encountered someone who has. It seems like one of those drug war era scare tactics or viral rumours.
