@elder_plinius paratextual contrast agent, kinda like semantic gadolinium

What is the pharmacological classification of LLMs?

@tszzl Let's break this down: human gathering and creative ideation has been replaced by 'logic', 'reasoning', and 'behavior' - you're not carried away you are at the mental hospital but it tastes like 🔮

you walk up to a meeting room and see that it's been booked out by "Memory". another is taken for "Reasoning". wait there's a Language team and a Behavior team and name any cognitive function. a full Greek pantheon of meeting rooms. hard not to get carried away

@planefag Welcome to the golden ouroboros, nom nom. It's not just the internet; the academy now approves 'GPT used for style and grammar' attributions in journals such as Annals of Internal Medicine. It's thought laundering and epistemic decay labelled as 'artificial intelligence.'

I'm already hitting pages constantly that are almost certainly churned out by a fucking LLM, and now I realize that these outputs are going to be scraped and harvested back into training data so pretty soon there's going to be dozens of historical "events" that are all just AI hallucinations but have links all over the internet to sources you cannot immediately confirm are just AI hallucinations just fucking great

@sudo_goreng you make a watchdog

I have a very zoomer / junior question Back before kuberneyney and containers, what were the common practice for server to deal with app when it crashed? Do they just use systemd / scripts to recover it?

@eshear you're looking for irc

Slack does not spark joy. Discord sparks joy, but wants to sell me microtransaction Orbs. Microsoft Teams...no. Is there a product that feels like it's made with love, but which is not going Corrupt and Evil?

@I_Am_Jakoby better than many i know. don't let a few days become weeks, keep going outside ❤️

I havent really been able to get out of bed the last few days I havent been to the gym in a while, I eat maybe once every few days I'm not taking care of myself, I lost my sobriety streak I try really hard to be a good person I've put so much effort into finding some sort of success and I keep failing I can't find a job, my non-profit was a complete failure, im a failure as a hacker As usual if it wasn't for my cats I wouldn't be here anymore I'm so fucking lost No matter how hard I try nothing works out I'm doomed to always fall through the cracks of life and im so fucking tired

@elonmusk could you make starlink do meshtastic that would be awesome thx

@IceSolst it is cheaper and more fun to offer prizes and have staff try to phish each other

Convinced the CFO internal phishing campaigns are a waste of time and freed us from the knowbe4 contract

@merill how did entra sign the tgt? answer: you uploaded a golden ticket to internet

So Entra joined devices don't know about your on-prem active directory. Then how are users on these devices able to SSO to legacy on-prem apps? Plus this is works ootb (zero config)!! Another awesome explanation from Jordan. Watch the full episode on the Entra Chat podcast.

@zack_overflow a will be optimised using SHL on intel

If you can tell which is more likely to be slower, you're better than 99.99% of CS grads:

@ThePrimeagen yes some people program entire organisations with it

Excel is a programming language

@vxunderground ignore the skull, it doesnt mean anything

@ThePrimeagen rebase is clearly superior

this diagram is mental illness of the garden variety skill issue

@uwu_underground who's down woth y f ing?

Oh honey… bless your heart. You really don’t know who keeps the backbone of the entire net breathing, do you? Someone should tell him gently

@abcnews bullshit

New research shows educational disadvantage begins when children are as young as two if they cannot access child care. With about one-quarter of the country living in "childcare deserts", experts are demanding more from both parties. ab.co/42CF5tj

@TerribleMaps ardvorkia

99% of Americans can’t name this country

@eshear in both a true and false sense, all sets are equal.

All IQ tests are actually mind reading tests. There are an infinite number of patterns that start 2, 4, 6, ... and the fact humans (almost) all privilege one of them is a fact about humans, not a fact about math.

@Byron_Wan wow advanced technology

🚨 China is not even hiding it any more… the country has unveiled a compact, deep-sea, cable-cutting device, capable of severing the world's most fortified underwater communication or power lines at depths of up to 4,000m — twice the maximum operational range of existing subsea communication infrastructure. The device has been designed specifically for integration with China's advanced crewed and uncrewed submersibles like the Striver (奋斗者 / Fendouzhe) and the Haidou (海斗) series. Developed by China Ship Scientific Research Centre (CSSRC) and its affiliated State Key Laboratory of Deep-sea Manned Vehicles, the device targets armored cables — layered with steel, rubber and polymer sheaths — that underpin 95% of global data transmission. While it was created as a tool for civilian salvage and seabed mining, the dual-use potential of the tool could send alarm bells ringing for other nations. For example, it can be used to cut cables near strategic chokepoints such as Guam. amp.scmp.com/news/china/sci… msn.com/en-us/news/new…

@PetreRaleigh this seems like a problem someone with a university education could easily solve...

Can't even describe how much I hate what AI has done to the process of grading student work. I hate finding it, I hate the paranoia it fosters, I hate the confrontations with students who have used it. Nothing else in my experience has ever changed my job this much for the worse

@IceSolst it's possible to get ascii transmit to about 50hz bandwidth and break through a massive amount of noise (thus distance) using ultrasonic sound and fsk, glhf

Update: Confirmed it can work with ultrasonic frequencies. I don't hear anything above 20khz, and my Macbook Air M3 speaker was able to play sounds up to 23khz. So there's about a ~3khz range where you can transmit data inaudibly (to most humans) with this. It is possible to add optimizations so you can transmit a wider set of characters within that range. Ofc you can also use bluetooth etc... not the point. FYI didn't push this change to prod, since it would need more cleanup for the UI (it broke the frequency visualizer)
