Calling it "witch hunting" is just dishonest. That term implies a baseless overreaction to a heavily exaggerated or imagined threat. That's hardly what's going on here. Unlike witches, AI slop really is everywhere and it

Almost every private tracker has a bonus point system: you are awarded bonus points for seeding (usually non-linearly, where the longer you seed the more points you earn for that torrent per hour) and can exchange them for upload credit. Th

Using or not using a coding agent is not what I took issue with. What I find devoid of responsibility is the argument you made originally--that making choices as a consumer informed by anything external to the direct value you're payin

On the contrary, I'm trying to understand as best I can. I find your position so completely devoid of any inkling of personal or social responsibility that it takes quite some empathy to muster up a reply that's not wildly uncivil

Bizarre reply. It's not "dominating everything you do". It's one specific thing. Grok exists in a very crowded space and it's incredibly easy to not use it. If this is your reaction to someone taking a very easy sta

And any arbitrage is also trivially exploited by the electricity company, who has a much greater financial incentive and scale, so there's really no reason to think that it's going to widen in the future either.

The human geography of Germany is completely different from the US. The US has much more continuous sprawl vs Germany has more clearly defined borders between higher density areas (towns and cities) and lower density ones along with land us

The Pacific salmon fisheries in North America are generally well managed. Overfishing isn't really a huge threat as a result. In fact you could argue that commercial wild salmon fishing is ecologically beneficial insofar as it brings

Yes it's rational market behavior. But it bothers people for such a blatantly worthless middleman to capture all consumer surplus for themselves while providing zero value.

Ok, bad faith it is then. Nobody reasonable in good faith could conclude that I "hate Jews" based on my reply. Just because I called Zionism settler colonialism? That's a view so prominent that it (apparently) has its own wik

I don't even know what that question means. Israel does exist. There's no "should" to discuss. Are you asking if I think Israelis should be kicked out of Israel? No. I mean, the real question is surely whether you think

If this truly set off zero flags for you then you're probably just not very attuned to LLM writing style. I've noticed that most people are not. I posted a bunch of specifics in a reply to the GP since I was quite annoyed with bei

It's also clearly AI generated writing. That doesn't help its credibility or interest. I'm extremely suspicious of people who use AI to write an ostensibly personal blog, for all the usual obvious reasons.

Nonsense. It's a common construction that LLMs didn't exactly invent. I don't think their usage evokes LLM writing at all (not short and punchy enough).

Yeah. I think 1. N4 leads to a white win. It's fairly easy to verify that a black rook move will lead to a white win (1...R5 2. R2 and 1...Rx4 2. Rx4 N5 3. Rx5#). So the critical line is 1. N4 N5, but then 2. Nx6+ K7 3. R4 also leads t
