Listen, they are building concentration camps and threatening genocide against a country of 90 million people. There is not a single remotely legal tactic that is impermissible when it comes to stopping them.
I fear Claude's system prompts are written by people with liberal arts degrees, who anthropomorphize models when talking to them instead of viewing them mechanistically.
I always thought Sun Tzu's "Art of War" was a little simplistic and obvious but it turns out yes, you do literally need to tell the Secretary of War "you need to feed your troops and keep them from being wiped out by preventable diseases"
Kevin Warsh just lost me. He argues he's going to be an independent Fed Chair, but refuses to acknowledge that Trump lost the 2020 election. If you can't state simple facts when you're in the political spotlight, you aren't independent. You're a coward.
Sorry to be overly sincere for a second, but here's why we decided to persevere through all of the bullshit and take over InfoWars.
There's just gotta be a line somewhere.
Thank you @pablo.show for letting me talk so openly about this.
ANYWAY, falling marriage rates are always cast as some sort of issue? Don't agree with that. Marriage is no longer *compulsory,* is all that tells me, and that's good. It shouldn't be.
Maybe it's because I'm Gen X, but I CLEARLY remember old, married couples who despised each other for decades.
Dudes who actually buy into manosphere bullshit love to go on about biological/gender essentialism and The Natural Order, but when you tell 'em "So where's the problem, most males in the animal kingdom never get a chance to procreate, I guess your genes must be inferior" suddenly there's an issue :V
Gil Duran tweet: TLDR: Fascism in response to Palantir's long fascists screed on X.
"Your Account is Suspended" Message on X
The CEO of Palantir posted a fascist manifesto on X.
I pointed out that it was fascist—which resulted in a permanent suspension from X (my second time!).
So, when you hear the tweeters complaining that BlueSky is intolerant, remember why many of us came here in the first place.
Why people can't tell we're living in dystopia.
On this day in 2019, I witnessed one of the coolest things ever. A lenticular cloud lit-up by a setting sun over the Perito Morena Glacier in Argentina.
i'll take the bold (for bluesky) position that working for raytheon or northrup or whatever does not make you an irredeemable person, but palantir is very different because they are making karp's insane worldview the company's official public position, they're explicitly saying you believe this, too
this sounds kinda like a "who cares" achievement but its a very exciting milestone for rich guys who are extremely invested in a future where robots they control are slavedrivers and prison guards for the rest of the human population
I know Indigenous people in Canada who are scared to go to hospitals because anti-Indigenous racism is all too common in healthcare.
Watching Palantir do Sephiroth posting about multiculturalism and I would like to remind everyone that they were doing corporate fake woke shit just like every other company.
Extremely normal and fine for a company to put this in a public statement
I love cleaning up code and deleting other people's bloat. It's part of senior software engineer work.
mRNA technology may be THE most underrated and unfairly scrutinized (fuck you COVID antivax crew) medical breakthrough in my lifetime.
Like... The things this is already showing it can do in the last 5-7 years is incredible.
Thank you for your courage to publicly address abusive language.
But here people are defending the stochastic parrot and essentially arguing that LLMs specifically are AGI.
Ah yes, cognition-behavior dualism is a sign of religiosity. /s
"The cognitive revolution of the late 20th century largely replaced behaviorism as an explanatory theory with cognitive psychology, which unlike behaviorism views internal mental states as explanations for observable behavior."
Isn't that why what Mamdani says sounds different and real?
It will never stop pissing me off how much trump is going to walk away from this presidency as a “real” billionaire in a way he never was before, and it is going to be solely because of the public office
But the only decently useful model for my work is Opus. Even Sonnet is too dumb.
picking over the corpse of the economy, what a great look.
pulitzer grade journalism to assign the clavicular interview to a man who looks like that lmao
Good managers in a bad org are also a "shit umbrella" (this is not a desired state of affairs by any means, but it can at least make a part of the company tolerable to work in).
Naturally, execs do not want this. They need to be able to shit where they please, and warlords are happy to let them.
SV tech bros have been jerking off about the idea of "flat" orgs for decades. But a flat org doesn't mean there are no hierarchies. It means the hierarchies are informal, hidden, inconsistent.
Do-nothing meeting attenders appoint themselves feudal lords.
