The only question, how will society build ways for real interest to meet real supply, whereas 99.99% of the web will be stuff that was not once written or read by anyone at all ever.

It'll all be natural after all: everyone's using AI to generate content for the web, because they don't care, and in return everyone will consume that content using AI, without looking at it, because they don't care either. techspot.com/news/107859-cl…

@sethrose @SullyOmarr Hi! I've just came across this repo. May I ask why it was archived? Was there some blockers or you just refocused you efforts or have you find another tool to cover your goals?

@SullyOmarr github.com/TheSethRose/Ti… Still a major work in progress but it’s moving along.

Just had the most surreal experience with AI + Coding Most of my day to day llm use is around coding and I usually default to gpt4 since i use cursor ide, The thing i was working was pretty dense, ~3000 LOC and 1 file had a weird bug Usually i just ask LLM's in snippets (since they're pretty bad at large outputs), but i couldn't figure out the weird react rendering bug Decided to copy and paste all 3 files and ask claude to fix it i didn't really have high expectations since even with tons of files, most llms fail horribly at but to my surprise, somehow, Claude was able to perfectly write the entire file (200 LOC) with 0 bugs it had perfect coding style as well, worked first try. i think just making better models with larger contexts is going to make devs more productive than an AI agent coding for you. Instead of an autonomous agent trying to loop and debug, it's 10x faster if an engineer can just conduct i'd rather have myself writing "high level" code so i can built infinitely more complicated software then an LLM coding "meh" hello world sites. really excited to see what a model like 5 will be able to do. there's actually so much to build

@Merzmensch The amount of images needed to train a model is so huge that it is impossible for any single person to generate a full training set. All you can do is fine tune an existing model with your images, so the copyright implications stay the same as with using the base model.

For me, the most exciting AI artworks are generated by models trained on your own photography and art. It's very personal, reflects your experience and perception, and also doesn't cause any copyright issues because you are in your training dataset. #aiart #kikunst #MERZmory

I use an adblocker. But whenever a site asks me to not do so I'm like, well, if you ask so. Maybe I'm naive, but I want to live in a world where asking something goes further than forcing or threatening. Ad blocking is now disabled on @logoipsum in my browser. You are welcome!

@goGreenGeeks @diggler_steven Don't even wanna get into how come the database was not running in a HA setup and why disaster recovery means we have to collectively wait for complete server backups to be restored, so now not only the db, but file server, emails and everything is down for several hours.

@goGreenGeeks @diggler_steven The global ticket for the issue accessible in the admin console doesn't get any updates for several hours. Customer chat offers no additional information. Also why have you brought down all email service for a MySQL issue? Why you didn't at least left the mail service running?

@goGreenGeeks can you provide an update on the corrupt SQL data that’s currently happening? We have had a client’s site down all day with no sign of resolution.

My @FluidApp apps stopped working after updating to the latest MacOS. Had to sign the apps again. E.g.: > xattr -cr /Applications/MyApp.app > sudo codesign --force --deep --sign - /Applications/MyApp.app @iTod: Are there ever going to be newer releases or is this project dead?

@nathanbaugh27 These are the 1st 3 modes of fitting a sine into length aka. the fundamental and the first 2 overtones in the harmonic series. We can also expect more "types", just with progressively fewer real examples: 2 whole waves starting upwards and down, 2.5 waves up & down, 3u&d etc.

In 2016, researchers at the University of Adelaide tested Kurt Vonnegut's theory that, "There’s no reason why the simple shapes of stories can’t be fed into computers." They took the emotional arcs of 1300+ novels from Project Gutenberg, turned that into data, used modern tech to analyze the emotional arcs, and then identified 6 patterns seen over and over again in western storytelling. Here they are: 1. Rags to Riches (rise) Your classic underdog tale. A humble, hardworking peasant climbs the mountain to pull the sword from the stone. • Rocky • King Arthur • The Pursuit of Happiness 2. Riches to Rags (fall) Maybe the saddest story of them all. A journey from the highest of highs to the lowest of lows. • King Lear • Citizen Kane • Scarlet Letter 3. Man in a Hole (fall then rise) A character’s doing fine, gets herself into a huge problem, but figures out how to overcome it. They often end up better than they started. “You see this story again and again,” Vonnegut says. “People love it, and it is not copyrighted.” • The Martian • The Hunger Games • Shawshank Redemption 4. Icarus (rise then fall) The hero goes on a meteoric rise up New York (or some other) society, calls everyone “old sport,” and throws the wildest parties in town. Then reality sets in, and he realizes he’s too close to the sun. • Macbeth • Great Gatsby • Death of a Salesman 5. Cinderella (rise then fall then rise) I’ll leave this description to Vonnegut: “We’re gonna start way down here. Worse than that, who is so low? It’s a little girl… the shoe fits, and she achieves off-scale happiness.” • Red Rising • Slumdog Millionaire • The Count of Monte Cristo This is my personal favorite. 6. Oedipus (fall then rise then fall) Up until the ~70% mark of the story it looks like things are sunshine and rainbows. Walter White goes from high school teacher to king of the drug lords, if you will. Then all goes wrong. The original fall is often not their doing while the final fall is. • Hamlet • Gone Girl • Breaking Bad My 3 takeaways: 1. Rags to Riches, Oedipus, and Cinderella rank as the three most popular with consumers. AKA, those books sold the most copies. 2. When you think through a story, give it an emotional shape. Literally draw it. X axis: Time Y axis: Ill fortune to good fortune You might be surprised how much it helps you craft your plot (I was shocked). 3. Vonnegut was a damn genius.

No, it is not. #cPanel

Every time you parse HTML using RegExp, a kitten writes its own JavaScript framework. Please don't do it! Or... Do it on your own site, so you'll see, when things start to break, but please don't do it in published plugins. It breaks things. Always. wordpress.org/support/topic/…

Update: We have noticed today that the historical data has reappeared. There was no response to my support request or any other notification. Anyway, good news. Now we only have the original problem.

@googleanalytics "Deleting this stream will stop the processing of incoming data for this stream, but historical data associated with this stream will be preserved in the property." Thankfully I've not tried it on a customer site, but still very annoying. So be careful!

Hey @googleanalytics! Good few of us are getting referral spam in our measurements for few days now from a domain news(dot)grets(dot)store. Apparently there's no way to filter these events in GA4. What is the recommended action? More info: reddit.com/r/webdev/comme…

There are apps which paint the top portion of the desktop image to black to "hide" it, but that's only cosmetics. There are conflicts with auto-switching backgrounds. Dragging windows around reveals the notch time to time. And there's still a limited space for menu bar icons.

Best way to remove the notch on #macbook is to use a screen resolution that excludes it! Use the RDM app to change the resolution and forget about the notch for good! It's 3% less screen real-estate, but much cleaner experience. github.com/avibrazil/RDM #mactips #macos

@itswillbarry @googleanalytics Also allegedly some sites may publish the referrals from access logs allowing the spammer to plant backlinks. I doubt it to be a common exploit. Also in this instance the spam is directly sent to Google, there are no visits to the site itself, so not an explanation in this case.

@sbnc_eu @googleanalytics Been seeing the same -- what's the goal of referral spam?

@itswillbarry @googleanalytics They could run some ads on that site for revenue, but I have doubts if it would make more money than the cost of the spamming. They could also create some affiliate cookies in your browser, so next time you make an Amazon purchase or similar, they could get a bonus.
