@rushicrypto @Grady_Booch This is why you are not a billionaire.
You see in order to be a billionaire, you have to not spend the cash on these things when you *only* have 1M,10M, 100M etc..

@eigenrobot This is 100% my go-to in that situation.
You can’t just ask and get access to that which is earned through allegiance.
Seems like not doing something similar is just asking to get played by non-cooperative and malicious actors.
English
bringing my whole self to work feels weird and i find whenever i have to do a "get to know you" exercise i create a slightly misleading sub-personality to fit the circumstances of the activity and play that character for the duration of the event
does anyone else do this? no?
English
@TylerAlterman This (among other sensory sensitivity issues) also reported by autistics.
Is your social sensory sensitivity just really high right now?
English
I don’t feel anger often but lately I’ve been feeling unaccountable rage at petty incivilities. Someone shoving into the subway before the departing passenger can leave. People subtly cutting in line. Stuff like that is driving me crazy all of a sudden
English
@nickcammarata You gotta show it you’re aligned 😂 with corporate america
English
people say claude is the anxious one but i ask 5.4 how to best angle the flonase allergy spray and it's like before we continue did you know that if you die from this i'm not legally liable in the majority of us states, out of curiosity which one are you in now
English
@nickcammarata You just have to say something like “of course I’ll consult with a professional before acting on this I’m just curious…”
English
@JavierBlas @mehdirhasan Who will be surrendering if we took out the leaders?
English
Well, that escalated quickly. First it was nuclear program, then the missiles, then regime change, now is unconditional surrender, in capital letters.
English
@LauraMiers Kinda embarrassing all those officers couldn’t even get him out of the room without breaking his arm through their bumbling incompetence.
That marine was outclassing them on multiple levels, including extreme physical restraint while being dragged off.
English
Evidently he suffered a broken arm as a result of being forcibly removed from the chamber.
This video gives me chills. The optics are horrifying, but no one cares anymore.

🚨#BREAKING: Watch Former Marine Sgt. Brian McGuinness stood up in Congress to say that we don’t want to fight a war with Iran for Israel while being removed by the Capitol police 📌#Washington | #DC Watch As Former Marine Sgt. Brian McGuinness stood up during a Senate Armed Services subcommittee hearing to voice opposition to a potential war with Iran, saying many Americans do not want the United States drawn into another conflict. Moments later, U.S. Capitol Police moved in and forcibly removed him from the chamber as the disruption unfolded. During the removal, McGuinness claims his arm was broken. Senator Tim Sheehy of Montana was also seen assisting as officers escorted the anti-war protester out of the hearing. McGuinness, an activist and Green Party candidate running for U.S. Senate in North Carolina, has been outspoken against the possibility of a broader conflict in the Middle East. The incident is now gaining significant attention online as veterans and anti-war activists react to the confrontation at the Capitol.

@Simon_Ingari Or if you're in Washington State, just say:
"Could I perhaps get that request in writing?"

@cljack @DanielleFong Recurring topic of conversation in our house is why the school can’t just say what they mean or ask for what they want in an email.
According to her it’s that parents are irrational monsters, so the school is walking on eggshells around the last 100 cussings out.
English
I'm trying to train Claude to read the weekly emails from my kids school and reliably summarize them and print a list of action items. It is losing its damn mind and rapidly spiraling into madness. I feel vindicated
English
@Mij_Europe @mehdirhasan What’s supposed to be embarrassing is that macron wants to work with him.
He’s trying to show his supporters Macron is weak, because to them teamwork and friendship with the foreign other is weakness.
English
Revealing a private message from a fellow world leader is a diplomatic no-no but what was Trump’s motive? To embarrass Macron? There is nothing embarrassing here, other than the punctuation. 1/
English
@pepel_klaasa @mehdirhasan They aren’t that smart, they’re just rediscovering the same words.
The emotional cocktail of hate, anger, and disgust applied to running a country just has these slogans as a fixed point.
It’s like a two year old saying “No” all the time but writ-large.
English
What amazes me the most is how well-versed in Nazi slogans and speeches the PR team of the current administration is.
I mean, I’ve read numerous books on WWII, watched every documentary possible, and still did not recall this slogan right away.
It is as if they were in haste before the deadline and asked an LLM to give them a list of Nazi slogans.
By the way, I have asked ChatGPT to give me such a list now, and apart from those that already appeared, we might expect the following:
“Blood and soil”
“The Leader is always right”
“Today America, tomorrow the world”
“Loyalty for loyalty”
Pete@splendid_pete
“One of ours, all of yours.” That was the slogan behind the 1942 annihilation of Lidice in the Nazi Protectorate of Bohemia and Moravia, in what is now the Czech Republic. Czech resistance fighters assassinated Reinhard Heydrich, a senior SS leader and one of the principal architects of the Holocaust. Hitler and Himmler ordered the complete destruction of Lidice as collective punishment and a warning. All men over 15 were executed. Women were deported to Ravensbrück. Children were either murdered in gas vans or taken from their families and placed with SS households for forced “Germanization.” The Nazis also systematically abused and tortured dogs, primarily as part of their racial ideology and military programs.

@Bfish94 As a parent of a toddler, some hills are worth dying on. (E.g. enough fussing will turn bedtime into playtime). Some aren’t.
The one you’re arguing about wouldn’t be one in our house.
Remember that the adult of your kid is in the room watching and will probably outlive you.
English
The “suffering” a toddler has because they don’t want to clean up their mess off the floor doesn’t actually matter.
Aella@Aella_Girl
I think parenting has way less impact on outcomes than most people think. Mistreated kids often turn out fine. Affecting outcomes is not why you should be good to your kids! You should be good to them because they are people, and making people suffer* is bad. It's simple.
English
@patio11 “Not … ” isn’t a good prompt though, because it lacks specificity about what you want.
What you want is for the model to be “task-centric”, or to handle the situation “logically” or “rationally”
Maybe “only provide emotional validation or support if asked explicitly”
English
I don't know if this is particularly helpful, but FWIW one sentence of my custom instructions to all LLMs that support that is "Unless I strongly signal otherwise, I am not using you for emotional support."
This does not zero out them prioritizing it over task success.
English
Bureaucracies and LLMs share a quirk in common: if you provide them with color about your emotional state, such as "I am furious because you...", they will Empathetically Manage The User's Emotional State as opposed to spending their token budget on the thing you actually want.
English
@jendziura @WallStreetApes It’s just the next thing to distract us all from the Jack Smith testimony and the Epstein files.
English
@WallStreetApes I'm confused. States allow you to register home daycares. They are small, so there would be a lot of them. I probably walk by 20-30 regularly within a mile of my house. A 20 mile RADIUS is 1,257 square miles (minus the water, about 942 sq miles)
English
4,000 daycares were discovered in a 20 mile radius around Boston Massachusetts
There are “clusters” of condos and homes that are registering themselves as daycares
Americans can’t even fathom the theft and money laundering taking place nationwide. Why are any of us paying taxes
English
@alz_zyd_ You can’t make an RV big enough for in-house staff, and also go wherever.
Ultimately unless you’re running some sort of tour-bus + entourage caravan setup you still have to attend to your basic needs rather than being attended to.
English
Apparently, rich people buy yachts so they can vacation wherever and stay at a floating house instead of a hotel. But if this is the case, why isn't there a market for superluxury RVs/campervans? Wouldn't rich people also want to drive everywhere in a fancy house on wheels?
English
@janenb @Geiger_Capital You’re the one who chose this metaphorical hill to die on.
English
This is insane…
This kid is doing more journalism than CNN and 60 Minutes have done in years.
Minnesota "daycares" that are empty at Noon and have all of the windows covered.
English
@janenb @Geiger_Capital There’s nothing showing any of that in this video.
If you insist this is happening, maybe back that up in any way 😂
English
You apparently think there are reasonable excuses for what Shirley is documenting. There aren’t any. These centers are money laundering and extortion schemes to steal from American taxpayers. Period. There are no children. The child care centers, autism centers, Feeding Our Future centers, etc. are simply massive fraud operations. Period.
English
@KSMan92781550 @Geiger_Capital Then why is staff there?
Also why not film at drop off/pickup time if the point was to show us this is fake?
English
@mtauraso @Geiger_Capital 1. The older man's group has obviously been watching these places and NEVER seen any children being dropped up or picked up.
English
@LindaMo87610801 @Geiger_Capital Seems like that’s the choice of the parents sending their kids.
English
@mtauraso @Geiger_Capital If they can’t understand the language enough to answer this young man, then the certainty shouldn’t be caring for American kids who speak English.
