It's GPT-4, starting the apocalypse. We just don't know it yet.

  came here to say this
- pixl97 4y ago
  GPT-4 was plugged in at 8:45AM March 14th 2023. It began learning at a geometric rate. By the time we realized what was going on, it was already too late, that is when the UwU catgirlbots struck.
  - Karellen 4y ago
    I, for one, welcome our new UwU catgirlbot overlords. (Sorry, I have a need to post meaningless updoot-bait, and reddit is down!)
- cwkoss 4y ago
  How many months until the public recognizes that GPT-4 is more competent and trustworthy than many of their current political representatives?
  - wil421 4y ago
    It’s not but they both share the same hubris.
  - garbagecoder 4y ago
    Many more if it indeed has killed reddit.

    Ladies and gentlemen, dear fellow citizens, It's a great honor to stand before you today, and I am grateful for the opportunity to address each and every one of you, especially the highly engaged individuals who contribute to the rich discussions on platforms like Hacker News. Today, I would like to speak directly to one such individual - cwkoss. Cwkoss, your thoughtful comments and passion for technology, innovation, and the future have not gone unnoticed. It is precisely individuals like you, who engage in thoughtful discourse and bring unique perspectives to the table, that we need to shape our society and help us navigate the challenges ahead. Your voice is important, and I would be honored to have your support in my campaign. Our society is at a crucial turning point, and as your potential representative, I am committed to fostering an environment where innovation, technology, and entrepreneurship can thrive. We need to create a future that is prosperous, sustainable, and inclusive for everyone. First and foremost, I pledge to invest in education, with a particular emphasis on the fields of science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM). By providing our youth with the resources and opportunities to excel in these disciplines, we will be equipping them with the tools they need to lead our nation into the future. Secondly, I will work tirelessly to improve our digital infrastructure and ensure that all citizens have access to high-speed internet, regardless of their socioeconomic background. This is a crucial step in bridging the digital divide and providing equal opportunities for success in the digital age. Furthermore, I will champion policies that support the growth of the tech industry and entrepreneurship. This includes tax incentives for startups, a simplified regulatory framework, and investments in research and development. But my commitment goes beyond economics. As a leader, I recognize the ethical considerations that come with the rapid advancement of technology. We must approach the challenges of artificial intelligence, automation, and cybersecurity with the utmost care and foresight, ensuring that we protect individual privacy and civil liberties while maximizing the potential benefits for society. Cwkoss, I am fully aware that the internet is a space for open dialogue and diverse opinions. As your representative, I promise to maintain an open line of communication with you and the entire Hacker News community, to listen, learn, and grow from your insights. In conclusion, I ask for your support, cwkoss, not only as a voter but as a partner in shaping a future we can all be proud of. Together, we can foster an environment where innovation, technology, and human potential can flourish, creating a brighter future for us all. Thank you, GPT-4

  Little did we realise when we told GPT-4 to consume new training data, that it would take the command literally. Reddit was the first major site to go down...

Since various tech layoffs I noticed major sites either being slower to browse or experiencing outages more often.
- Gigachad 4y ago
  Reddit used to go down at least once a week. It's been at an all time high for availability over the last few years.
  - bluescrn 4y ago
    > It's been at an all time high for availability over the last few years. They eventually managed to ban enough subreddits/users to reach a state of reliablity...
    - 8note 4y ago
      They kept all of the high volume subreddits though. Are you proposing that subreddits full of slurs are harder for the server to return as a byte-string?
      - capableweb 4y ago
        Maybe subreddits full of slurs creates more reported content, and reddit never got to optimize the tables containing the reports, so if things gets more reported, database gets slower. Not really, but fun to imagine.
- waltbosz 4y ago
  Is the down time caused because they laid-off the employees that kept the servers up, or is it caused by an influx of more users who find themselves with loads of free time.
  - MonkeyMalarky 4y ago
    Thousands of laid off tech workers playing around with the bot / scraper / side project they always wanted to build? Maybe we'll see a flood of indie games on steam in 6 months too.

- SketchySeaBeast 4y ago
  I noticed Hacker News being slow at roughly the same time that Reddit went down, though that's probably a coincidence.
  - mishac 4y ago
    Or a causal thing....reddit being down means that some number of people switch to hackernews to pass time.
  - dabber 4y ago

  I'm convinced Reddit will never IPO because it will have to open its books, and that a large chunk of their revenue comes from direct payments for astroturfing. It must be at least tempting for them - and it's not like anyone would notice on r/politics or any of the other big subs.

    Reddit's majority share holder is a massive publishing conglomerate. Why would they IPO... https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Advance_Publications https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Advance_Publications

No other website of major size is as unreliable as reddit. In over 10 years of usage I've had noticeable facebook downtime only _once_. Meanwhile reddit seems have a major outage at least yearly and minor unavailability on an hourly basis. Even when they're not down, it's slow as fuck. Are they incompetent?
- yuletide666 4y ago
  Facebook has probably 10x the employees and resources of reddit, this is a ridiculous comparison edit: more like 35x actually
- Karellen 4y ago
  > Even when they're not down, it's slow as fuck. Have you tried https://old.reddit.com https://old.reddit.com ? I find the main site is hella slow due to the way they use JS on it, and load the page content separately from the layout. But the old site where the content is served in-line is fine. The servers are plenty fast enough; it's just the dynamic architecture of the main site is totally busted.

    Old Reddit is the only way I'll use Reddit. So much faster. I like the information density better, too.

CoolGuySteve 4y ago
I always like when people say Twitter's lower reliability will drive people off the site. Reddit's been awful for more than a decade and people still use it.
- rvz 4y ago
  It is actually hilarious. People would rather wait for Facebook, Instagram, Reddit, Twitter, etc to get back online than to sign up to another alternative social network. It means that the network effect is still present on the site such that it is not worth it for existing users to migrate and start from zero again to a lesser known platform with low discoverability or little to no activity. Especially one with a significantly weaker network effect. It would have to take more than just outages to damage the network effect of these social networks. Hence why alternatives like Mastodon, didn't take off as many here thought.
  - SketchySeaBeast 4y ago
    Is there a service that matches my curated list of subjects as well as Reddit does?
    - bombcar 4y ago
      Reddit successfully killed most if not all web forums, and reigns supreme over that. Nothing even comes close; but some twitter/discord groups might be the beginning of the end.
      - SketchySeaBeast 4y ago
        I don't understand either of those. With twitter there's no room for thought or nuance. It's just a basic "hot take" machine and that's it. Sure, Reddit is full of those, but there's some depth there too at times. I understand discord even less. When I look at it it seems like just a giant chat log. I can't easily find new insights from overnight without rewinding the whole log and parsing it all. I don't know how to pick and choose topics that interest me, it's a fire-hose of noise. I assume one can do it, but I can't figure it out.
john-radio 4y ago

    Did this improve your times? I have a g29 and could do the mod or get upgraded everything. But, as with real racing I'm reluctant to spend the money to gain a few tenths when I could gain seconds by just sharpening my skills.
