loremium··on Apple's hostile App Store rating system
Negative reviews inflate genuine good software just because positive reviews are simply not written usually. people like to complain and not to give positive feedback if things work as expected.
loremium··on Handbook.md shows that long policy documents do not reliably govern agents
isn't it because there are too many contradictions and ambiguity? the reason it works for humans is because we don't apply everything at once either.

loremium··on Chrome removes claim of On-device Al not sending data to Google Servers
We're way past just collecting for a while now.

it's more like knowledge extraction at this point. younger generations don't build up knowledge any more, everyone else is slowly losing their knowledge by not using it.

Eventually the rug pull comes and knowledge will only be accessible by those who can afford it.

loremium··on All phones sold in the EU to have replaceable batteries from 2027
What if they don't? What if there are manufacturer errors? What if they burn your battery with updates along the way?
loremium··on There's yet another study about how bad AI is for our brains
it's probably even worse, because knowledge is basically extracted out of all communities and eventually the rug pull comes where you're denied access one way or another.

not only do students graduate now only due to chatgpt but also 10 year old kids never build up education while using ai to do their homework.

loremium··on Git commands I run before reading any code
tbh I'm not convinced that a git log history should be treated as a group journal because it's not.

relying on git commit messages assumes they're correct by convention since there is no technical constraint to enforce it. and it assumes no work in progress commits, sometimes it's just necessary to hit the save button real quick or move a workspace from one device to another.

my point is: git is a way of storing and loading files at its core.

loremium··on Claude Code's source code has been leaked via a map file in their NPM registry
reminds me of `don't look up` a bit. there clearly is an imbalance in regards to licenses with model providers, not even talking about knowledge extraction (yes younger people don't learn properly now, older generations forget) shortly before the rug-pull happens in form of accessibility to not rich people

you could also use openai whisper for transcription. takes longer but beats bad subtitles
loremium··on The Policy Puppetry Prompt: Novel bypass for major LLMs
This is assuming people are responsible and with good will. But how many of the gun victims each year would be dead if there were no guns? How many radiation victims would there be without the invention of nuclear bombs? safety is indeed a property of knowledge.
loremium··on Climate protesters storm Tesla gigafactory in Europe
No Chernobyl is the reason why we don't have nuclear reactors. either Tokio tsunami disaster or the 600 nukes after Hiroshima should prove that mankind can't be trusted with this technology imho. there has to be a better way.
