The moderation team stuff was largely unrelated to tech stuff, and was specifically involved with politics and ideological HR-style cancellation discourse. One of the most notable actions of the team was managing a protest against defense c

Blocking access only hurts people who follow the rules. Unblocking access lets them compete with those who break the rules. I think the right choice is pretty clear...

The charge against him is specifically "Stealth canvassing", which, beyond the use of the word "Stealth", is clarified several times as: """Stealth canvassing: Contacting users off-wiki (by e-mail, IRC, or

Wow, they're on a roll over there. Just two days ago they permanently banned the cofounder of Wikipedia, Larry Sanger. Per his tweet: "Well, that’s that—I’ve been blocked by Wikipedia “indefinitely” for unstated reasons, by the “c

Have you considered having an agent, or just a model, classify/triage them for you? Modern problems require modern solutions.

Am I imagining things, or are all of the "vaguely pro-AI" comments being brigaded into oblivion? I can't remember ever seeing this many reasonable posts being downvoted to the point of greying out.

I mean... Tiktok's hallmark trend has always been people doing "TikTok dances", which involve audio, so... But, besides that, TikTok became the titan it is today during the pandemic. When everyone was indoors (not outside). P

That's just a standard disclaimer. This is just how it is out there. Ask teachers what students are like these days. Think about designing for users. Or cross-reference with other info on this topic. And, in regard to colleges... you h

Just getting to the point of using a voice mode is a challenge at that level. Like, we're talking about "has trouble formulating a question to ask in the first place". There's a whole level of ignorance out there that is

It's important to factor in just how many US adults are basically illiterate nowadays. As of 2023, 27% of American working-age adults were at a PIAAC Literacy Level of 1 or below, out of a total of 5 levels. This has gotten drastically

It seems pretty obvious at this point that Anthropic intentionally developed a malicious cyberweapon AI simply to scare people. Like, they even apparently recreated that old news-headline bug where the LLM starts speaking in symbols and sec

"Divided" is a bit of a strong word. The true state of things is that the anti-AI folks are FAR more vocal about their opposition, meanwhile, the people who like AI are busy being productive and accomplishing a truly staggering am

Free, downloadable AI models have consistently caught up to ChatGPT within 3 months, for almost a year now. I highly encourage you to go and update your priors.

I'm somewhat confused as to why this is on the front page. It doesn't go into any real detail, and the advice it gives is... not good. You should definitely not be quantizing your own gguf's using an old method like that hf s

Yep. Apple sells 5k displays, which work fine. Just another case of Apple intentionally going against established open standards to price gouge their users. I wouldn't mind it as much if I didn't have to hear said users constantly

This assumes that it will only be scrupulous software engineers using these systems. Which is anything but the case. Not to mention the many tales from Anthropic's development team, OpenClaw madness, and the many studies into this matt

This was incredibly vague and a waste of time. What type of code? What types of tools? What sort of configuration? What messaging app? What projects? It answers none of these questions.

He goes on about putting a mass driver on the moon for ultra-low-cost space launches. His plan here clearly hinges around using robots to create a fully-automated GPU manufacturing and launch facility on the moon. Not launching any meaningf

I love Cachy, but please don't recommend it as a reasonable first step into Linux. It's a lot more polished than Arch, but it's not for someone who hasn't used Linux before and wants a reliably rock solid and predictable

The article is about improving the flow of lymph in the brain, and NAC thins mucous, lymph, and various other bodily fluids, which leads to improved flow and general clearance.

Yeah, the body-wide mucous thinning properties of NAC are one of the reasons it has racked up papers showing its efficacy in a truly staggering number of illnesses and conditions. (Including neurodegenerative diseases.) Highly recommend rea

F-Droid is the best known non-corporate Android App Store... Why wouldn't they be willing to host it? It's a critical load-bearing component of FOSS on Android.

None of the numbers I've seen on web usage, platform usage, etc. indicate people are significantly pulling away from online lives. Though, there has been a slight dip in daily social media browsing time in the last couple of years (of
