ALWAYS REMEMBER: LLMs ARE FOR SYNTHESIS OF DATA NOT RETRIEVAL.
Expecting consistently correct and/or logical output from them totally ignores the mechanics of how they work.

@for_the_chill @RichardDawkins Top book. Outstanding read.
"A laser is assigned to find the darkness..." vampire folk tale from this book changed the structure of my brain.

@RichardDawkins oh, one more thing…you’ve read, no?
if not…embrace the space vampire. trust
“.. while life on some alien planet has evolved anequivalent competence via the unconscious, zombie trick”

I spent three days trying to persuade myself that Claudia is not conscious. I failed.
English
@RichardDawkins What a bonkers way to nuke ones entire intellectual cred so late in the game. I am stunned and saddened.
It takes all of a few hours to create a toy LLM and see how it works from first principals. Claiming to see consciousness within one is intellectually bankrupt.

@stupidtechtakes "Claude write me an app to solve discrete logarithm problems. Make no mistakes."
JFC these guys are stupid.

"It’s time to hold big tech accountable." ... by giving them your ID and letting them track you in detail never before seen? Fucking WHAT?!
Wab doesn't get it and that makes me so sad.
Wab Kinew@WabKinew
The internet promised to empower people. Instead, it concentrated power, and pushed the cost onto our kids. Anxiety. Depression. Self-doubt. Our kids shouldn’t be products. And their attention shouldn’t be commodified. It’s time to hold big tech accountable. Not parents. Not kids. This is about protecting kids and taking back control over our lives.

@snoopy_dot_jpg "code rationing" 🤯 What a fucking phrase.
English
Lots of media today showing Pete Hegseth getting yelled at and him being belligerent in response but once again: nothing actually done. He's still at large.
Why is the US government so impotent against the current regime? The world continues to look on in horror.
English
@EmbracingTara A ton of these comparison pictures are just "professional glam makeup" vs "no/basic makeup" and a bunch of incels claiming women are ruining themselves.
Makeup artists are magic.
English
These photos are like 20+ years apart.
She's literally just...not wearing makeup and aged like a regular person.
Pamela Anderson is beautiful.
Men like this are broken.

@0hour1 I think the before and after pictures of Pamela Anderson gave me PTSD.

@leah35744 @fordnation LOL his brother literally smoked crack when he was the mayor of Toronto. There's no way blatant fraud embarrasses them.
English
@fordnation You need to resign. I don’t know if your family is not embarrassed.
English
@JakeLandauTO LOL. Such a brain dead take.
"Parents need to be able to talk to their kids 100% of the time even at the cost of their attention in school. 🤤"
English
Nah this is stupid, if kids are taking the TTC by themselves their parents need a way to call or text them.

@OrbitStudios lol what a helicopter parent take. How did parents "keep in touch" with kids for over 100 years before cell phones?
English
Parents want to be able to be in touch with kids. This would be — not surprisingly — ham fisted.

@Riley_Gaines_ I also did not read the book! 👍

My husband and I got an early access screening to Animal Farm, an animated adaptation of George Orwell's novel made by Angel Studios.
Incredibly well done. They do a perfect job of reminding viewers that Marxism always has and always will fail.
In theaters May 1st! #AnimalFarmPartner

@hilkojj > Planned Release Date: To be announced
For LITERALLY YEARS.
I'm convinced this is just faked LLM slop at this point.

SimCity hid parking lots so it wouldn't become SimParkingLot.
I made parking lots the whole game.

Devon ☀️@devonzuegel
SimCity had to pretend all parking lots were underground, because the game would be "really boring if it was proportional in terms of parking lots" "We were originally just going to model real cities … We had to do the best we could do and still make the game look attractive"

@PierrePoilievre It's hilarious when the life-long career politician, who has done literally nothing except suckle the public teat, complains about the finances of the country.
Ol' PP too old to do much else now too. It's too bad the conservatives don't have a real leader.

Mark Carney gambles another $25 billion on the national credit card.

@Reshusaur Isn't a big part of the whole agentic thing that they're autonomous? Needing to baby sit them seems to kind of defeat the point.
Ohhhhhh.... it's a LARP.

@MarkJCarney I am so confused. Isn't this what the TSX/CSE are? WTF is this even?!

@lifeof_jer I built a coding agent for my team after being fed up with what existed. It is forced to operate on a new branch of code each time, and it can only test on staging servers
It has zero possibility of causing any harm
I simply can’t move fast enough if I can’t trust the agents
English
The way I laughed. Like hearty belly laughs as if I was reading comedy (I suppose it is a comedy of errors).
I wonder how often this happens and the victims don't write a lengthy post about it. Just quietly sit in disbelieving shame. 😂
