Uggh. Look an armchair unqualified and outrage opinion by someone on Hacker News who has no idea what they are talking about. Look up febrile seizure. Every parent know them. The recommendation by most doctors is to only bring in your child

Here is an uncomfortable truth. This man is in prison because of ableism. This is why body language “experts” are grifters and charlatans. This is why you shouldn’t convict people on a hunch, and why as a professional you don’t say shit you

I am references the rules of society, and despite whatever legal nonsense HN wants to say they can do, the fact remains both California and the entire EU has the right to be forgotten and the right to erasure as a matter of law. Hacker News

That is an outcome I am hoping for. Of course, if my comments remain and they just lock my account… we’ll that’s when the real spam will start… followed not long after by a a long and lengthy conversation with folks in congress. I hear they

Seems a bit perverse, doesn’t it? I have a right to have my data deleted from this platform. Hacker News has repeatedly refused to delete my comment history from the site. We have a right to erasure.

Nah. My next step is talking to senators and exposing how everyone here is training on everyone’s data without their permission. I’m going to take away your toys. We have the right to say no, and walk away from the algorithm. All of us have

I contacted them. They outright refused to delete any comments, all comments or my entire account. Hacker News by matter of policy WILL NOT delete your comments, even when requested in writing.

I do not want to change my username. I want to delete MY comments and MY account. I don’t care if this “breaks your database” or not. It wasn’t a problem for LinkedIn to delete my account and data. It wasn’t a problem for Twitter. It wasn’t

I asked them to wholesale delete ALL of my comments and my account and they refused.

Maybe this is the start of a movement here to get us our own GDPR? You know what’s way more dangerous than me spamming this site with LLM hallucinations? Me walking into Congress with a fucking bill. How far do you want this to go HN? Delet

If I had any power to do any harm to PG at all, I wouldn’t need to post ridiculous shit in the internet to get his attention, would I? Leave the arm chair lawyering to the lawyers.

Rights go beyond laws my friend. You see for example, I have the right to endlessly create accounts and flood this site with LLM spam, if I wanted to. Nothing illegal about training a model to post comments online is there? You see… when it

Why the hell not? It sure would be fun. Hell, I could setup a bot net and just generate accounts and reasonable sounding spam in mass with LLMs and no one would be the wiser. Seems like a fine way to fight back. HN: Delete my comments, and

Actually now that I think about it, it should be relatively easy to take an LLM and just spam nonsense on my behalf. :) Perhaps we can help skew the models the train off comments drift a bit further away from anything useful.

I do not want to disentangle my name from my comments. I want to delete my comments. They are MY comments. I have a right to have them deleted.

by kitanata 3y ago
I’m not. I just don’t want to be on the internet anymore and I have a right to be forgotten.

I did. They refused to delete my comments.

Not a bot. I just missed the memo. Might be a good idea to go ahead and create one though, because I never would have agreed to this had I known.

Every few months is yet another news article about how Red Hat is damaging the FOSS community. It’s an abusive relationship. Let them go. Paywalling FOSS code is unforgivable and should end them. So end them. Stop using RHEL.

Just a small reminder than Blender is so amazing now that AAA studios have started to use it.

I noticed a particularly dark pattern when I used Keeps, by Thirty Madison. They tell you, that you can cancel or pause at anytime but that is a lie. They over-prescribe their medication, and if you try to pause delivery, they automatically

So, I hope they show up but a couple of folks I used to know in the tech community in Columbus would travel down to Marion State Penitentiary every month or so to teach programming to the inmates there. One guy they taught even got a job ri

Until Congress passes data protection laws that result in company ending fines, no one in America is safe. How this isn’t a national security crisis is beyond me. All this news about Hauwei but they just made something that is already easy,

You have these cells in your brain called Microglia. They are responsible for cleaning up neurons and plaques and other weird proteins. These Microglia are activated by the firing neurons which release 2-AG and AEA (Anadamide). AEA binds to

Was it the end of coding when we made COBOL? How about the OS? Or the browser? What about intellisense? Or Python? Or no code automation tools? We are moving to a yet another higher level of abstraction. Welcome to the tech industry!
