You could say that type theorists are isomorphic to LGBT.

Seriously when will a progressive finally do some rebranding? Call your position “Freedomism” and scream it from the rooftops to establish it. Make the tenets* of Freedomism the exact same as Socialism but Americanized™.

Edit: *Fixed a typo

I can’t believe the company pulling through with affordable but powerful graphics cards is Intel.

This is like the season 1 bad guy joining forces against a greater evil.

Gotta love how an llm will fumble interpreting basic requests or issues but will give you a very detailed minute by minute playback on how it fucked up and how screwed you are.

The “secret” is people want and will actively seek out passions, and having a job that you’re passionate about is a night and day difference.

All you need to get people passionate is provide livable wage, have a supportive work culture, and give them a sense of purpose for their work.

Instead we’ve got shit pay, managers that will abuse your trust to get free work then dump you on a bad quarter, and all sense of choice and responsibility stripped in favor of getting you to follow a corporate script and be a good little corporate automaton that absorbs the customer’s complaints while being powerless to fix their issue.

I’d argue the Monkey’s Paw is a bad example because I don’t think the Monkey’s Paw is actively malicious like a djinn.

I think Monkey’s Paw just works off of path of least resistance. What’s the fastest way to randomly get rich? Workplace accident causing life insurance payout. What’s the least effort way to revive the dead? Just make the corpse start moving again. What’s the easiest way to give a shambling corpse peace? Undo the last wish.

I feel like a Djinn wouldn’t let you undo the reviving wish. They’d probably just put them in a coma so your son is now in a half dead comatose state forever.

I don’t know if this translates to mac n cheese but if you put things like frozen pizza in a convection oven/air fryer it comes out as if it was from a pizzeria.

I feel like placing identities into hierarchies always ends up controversial. Like non-binary is technically under transgender because transgender just means your transitioning from your assigned gender to something else; but a lot of non-binary people really don’t like being called transgender instead of non-binary.

At the end of the day, the words meanings are a subjective experience that cannot be directly observed or compared. So functionally all self-identifying terms exist flat relative to each other because there will always be contradictory definitions that you can’t rigidly settle on without ignoring significant groups of people.

Finding a poorly-secured public facing API is exactly how injections work, whether it’s SQL or prompts. If I put SQL commands in a username field and it works, it’s still an SQL injection even if it’s just developer incompetence.

The difference between that and prompt injection is that unfiltered LLM inputs are basically the standard at the moment, so it takes next to no effort.

Plus I think the Morse code example is far more clever and exploits the LLM directly, whereas the white text trick has been around long before widespread LLMs.

Am I the only one too paranoid to ever copy paste code from the internet and/or AI?

Code that I don’t understand feels like a dead pixel when I try to picture the whole piece of software in my head. I even search for what all those one letter flags mean for a command or function before I feel confident in using it.

I feel like there’s a decent difference between dirt and clay. Like the title made me imagine the same dirt that’s in a lawn with bugs and stuff; clay I imagine as being cleaner and more similar to eating wax or play-doh.

Y’see the 3 sided zipper can only exist in cosmic levels of pressure and heat, being constrained by advanced AI controlled magnets to prevent the zipper from getting caught on something.

The ruler has nonsense AI hallucinated numbers.

I wish dumb excuses got punished more harshly, because it’s either trying to escape consequences or a genuine amount of stupidity that either way should have your degree and/or funding revoked.

It’s like a step above autopilot. It feels like the rational parts of your brain are locked off to you and the world is briefly as confusing to you as when you were a kid.

Obviously you can shake out of it and think harder about your scenario, but usually you just want the thing over and done with and that leaves you fumbling about long enough to make a bad decision.

When coming across an unfamiliar problem, does anyone else feel themselves be possessed by the “problem solver”? It’s like the rational part of your brain doesn’t think it needs to be there so it delegates to your lizard brain and your lizard brain decides to “solve” the problem itself.

It’s so jarring how much can “seem like a good idea at the time”.

Actually Deepseek’s having a resurgence because of their Engram module which is truly novel.

It’s not so much that Deepseek is a flash in the pan but more like they do some cool new thing and everyone copies their work while they recede back into their research.
