No kings and shutdown having an impact? Too early for white house destruction.

come with age verification. This absolutely isn't the solution, I'm not sure what is beyond better parenting and education.

The People Mover Who Was Promised @pmwwp.bsky.social · 12h

The age verification law is bad, but yeah there is stuff that I think objectively kids shouldn't see online. Snuff films, BDSM porn etc. I don't think that should be a controversial claim at all.

Solutions just need to be better than the massive privacy violations and technical inadequacies that

Legitimately this would be a deal breaker for me as a voter.

In my personal experience the reason they are wrong about the news so often is that they are trained on older data and don't realize that they lack current info.

Thanks I also sent them the Jake Anbinder Atlantic article.

What's the best reading material to share with my friends on why they should vote yes on 2-5? I am yes on 1-6 personally.

This kinda suggests to me that maybe they did it because they were unhappy about tanking?

One of the most impressive sequences I've ever watched. Even if he had missed it still would have been impressive just to get to that position. He did not miss.

I've been using it since 2022. I'm sure I didn't come up with it. Apparently some weirdo e/acc and crypto accounts have also used it from a failed attempt to find a first user. Lots of independent inventors.

What if we did a single run and declared victory

Three panel thing. In the left panel we use error bars. In the second, we take statistical significance as the biggest number but still have error bars. In LLM science, we just have the biggest number

Maybe only for the state of West Virginia and not the whole country?

The most fun part was watching them get into really long conversations with other bots like pattern, until the void programmer put a stop to it.

The People Mover Who Was Promised @pmwwp.bsky.social · 1d

I do like void but will not at them here to avoid getting blocked.

A hobbyist built an LLM to act as a bsky robot-mind account. Somewhat similar to grok but much less cyberhitler.

JFC I thought it was just the facade.

I don't even think that's a good reason to dislike the program. That's a good reason to dislike teachers unions who try to prevent alternatives to their monopoly power to increase wages by decreasing the number of teachers.
