Yeah but most of y’all wouldn’t accept the imprisonment willingly.

Any PDS can talk to another PDS, yes.

For everyone who thinks you can’t learn with LLMs, Dr. Cat Hicks, psychological scientist and author of the recent book “The Psychology of Software Teams[1],” who worked at Google and founded the Developer Success Lab at Pluralsight, has written two skills called learning-opportunities[2] and learning-goal[3] that use validated learning science to help you learn while using LLMs.

Cat also has an awesome podcast with her wife, Ashley Juavinett, Phd, called Change, Technically.[4]

I encourage everyone to check out her work! She’s dedicated her life to helping software developers get the support they need inside organizations to be seen as humans, not just robots.

That’s not true at all. Do you know who Joost de Valk is? Because it’s wild for you to say that, truly. That man has probably been building websites for longer than you have been alive.

Were all US soldiers in the Revolutionary War war criminals? What about the North in the Civil War? Or WWI/WWII?

Nearly every soldier in any war will have directly or indirectly killed an innocent civilian. Which ones are war crimes and which aren’t?

How do you decide and who gives you the authority to do so?

Because customers have better things to do.

Folks should check out https://zentropi.ai and their latest model, CoPE-B-A4B: https://huggingface.co/zentropi-ai/cope-b-a4b

Policy adaptive models really are the coolest things these days.

Also, check out https://roost.tools for even more open safety tooling!

Yeah, you do. You go and review it manually if the user comes back and says that.

The reality is that most users don’t ask because they know they violated the rule.

This is a preprint, and a poor one at that. Boooooo.

There is so much bad science about psychology and cognitive debt posted on Hacker News every day. It’s so exhausting.

There are far, far more RSS feeds today than there were when Google Reader died.

Google has not destroyed adoption of RSS feeds at all.

Bro. It’s FOSS. It’s owned by the users. You can run tangled all on your own. If VC somehow ruins it, it’ll still be running just fine.

The problem is that everyone imagines some sort of just and fair arbiter of these things, when the reality is all of the social scoring and consequences and reputations rarely actually stem from one’s actions, and far more often stem from how much money someone has put in someone’s pocket, who someone knows, the color of someone’s skin, or what’s between someone’s legs.

Until we’re actually serious about treating people equitably, (not equally, as that would simply leave the lopsided power structure we have in place) we aren’t getting out of this.

You really felt this, huh? So much so that you had to post it twice? Damn. Lmao

Let me help rewrite your first paragraph:

* A disproportionate amount of value in the computing industry was created by g̶e̶n̶i̶u̶s̶e̶s̶ decently smart people who worked together to do things that seemed impossible and who decided to just tell people how to do things instead of trying to capture the value of being the first person to figure out how to do those things.*

I’m confused where it says they will be able to nerf them.

Reads to me like there’s code that could be that, but it’s not certain.

You all really do not understand. Many people will gladly pay the $433 at the end because they’ve been able to get a new job and make more money in the interim.

This is not why Americans are in debt. If you really think this you understand so little.

That rich man was born into wealth, so he has no concept of the lives of poor people.

Really? How many fridges have you gone through in 10 years? This might be the way you treat things, because for me and mine all of these are still a single digit: 1.

Klarna does not charge interest or fees to people who miss payments.

> People need to stop associating so much personal sense of worth with their handheld computer.

This might be the funniest thing I’ve ever read on this nerd website.

Are you seriously arguing that Apple is doing this so they don’t have to keep making devices any better? I just want to be very clear about this.

I’m certain there are things you pay for that I would look at and go “I’m a little confused on why anyone would pay this much for x. (Although if you consider it conspicuous consumption that happens to work as x, I can believe that.)”

But I wouldn’t, because I actually understand that people are different and like it that way.

Consider: your opinion is worthless when it comes to what I care about in terms of luxuries I enjoy, just as mine is worthless when it comes to what you care about in terms of luxuries you enjoy.

It’s way better when you don’t run around judging other people for liking different things than you.

Do you know what’s cool about hobbies? They don’t have to be reasonable! They don’t have to be financially responsible! They’re hobbies! That’s the whole point!

Listen, whatever you do that’s your hobby I’m certain is also a giant waste of money and very financially irresponsible. And if not, learn how to have fun and stop being so boring.

Yes, it should. It absolutely should.

The United States making questionable decisions and behaving recklessly and dangerously as a country does not suddenly make China any better.

China is as worse as the United States, if not more worse, by many measures.

> US citizens have a much greater threat from their own government than a government an ocean away.

> See, the Snowden Leaks

Are you saying the Snowden Leaks are more dangerous than a world where the CCP is a global hegemon?

If your focus as an American is being safe as an American, what the US does in other countries is far less of a concern to you than what other countries might do to the US.

In the case of the CCP, they have and will attempt to destabilize the United States of America and in turn make life measurably worse for Americans because they wish to be the world’s hegemon.

Fundamentally, Americans are safer when the United States is the number one power than when China is the number one power.

Saying they “own” OpenAI is a massive stretch, considering their stake is less than 30%, post-recapitalization into a PBC.

Really strange, considering there’s more debate, disagreement, and lack of conformity in atproto than I’ve ever seen in crypto.

I think you might mean, “people who disagree with me intensely because they believe strongly in the way they view things.”

Atproto is very, very far from a cult. It is a bunch of poasters, though, and nobody should be surprised when a social protocol has a bunch of, well, really social people in its leadership, and you shouldn’t expect them to act like senior leadership of Intel, IBM, or Nvidia.

The fact Paul makes jokes on a social forum at or with people is a reminder that he’s a human. He’s smart, passionate, nerdy, talented, and sometimes extremely annoying, much like everyone else here, and I’m GLAD the leadership of the company and the protocol are as engaged with the community as they are.

It’s a social protocol, for god’s sake. Remember when everyone would complain that the people who ran Twitter would never use it? I do, and just because Elon is down the K-hole and a posting menace doesn’t mean the criticism was incorrect.

Huh.

Tell that to LSP, QUIC, SPDY, GraphQL, WebRTC, BitTorrent, HTTP/2, and other protocols.

I guess they weren’t “open” either for the first 5-10 years of their existence either?

Weird.
