The nuanced discussion on LLM can’t happen for a long time because the education around it has been deliberately muddied in order to permit massive methods of harm. There is no accessible source of truth for the general public regarding how LLM works, && how it different from ML and AI.

Honestly I think the British media makes more sense to me when I recognise that their predictions of doom are actually wishes.

All I need is a roof, some bread, and blessings of the Nine. Bruma is Gods' country, and the Gods are good to me.

Decent people are the "far left" now? Prick.

And what you really think is the most hackneyed bunch of Westminster talking points imaginable

The boys at Dover make me think of these guys - take the mask off and you’ll find the best description of them is rather pathetic people bsky.app/profile/heta...

this shit isnt sustainable

that would be the same Times whose editors absolutely creamed themselves over the Jason Arday plagiarism allegations

As honoured as I am to see that The Times has picked up my Chagos article practically *word for word*, including my hard-gotten quotes, I’d prefer some credit — or for everyone to read my original FT piece! free link to read the evidently enviable article below (cheaper than a Times sub!) 🌴

Just dawned on me that we lost two officers of the Red October in a month

Company that union busts and fires its employees and then justifies it by spreading rumors they were leaking stuff are now insisting you have to sympathize with them because it’s heartbreaking what these leakers are doing to their employees.

LMAOOOOOOOOOO somebody finally asked the transphobes if they know any WNBA players besides and NOPE

Girl with a Pearl Earring is being exhibited in Osaka and so of course this happened

100% of the people doing this have pretended they want to "protect women's sports" from the imaginary trans players in the WNBA.

Happy #screenshotsaturday, y'all. Everyone tells new devs to start learning by cloning games like Pong. My advice: don't stop at Pong. However long you've been at it, recreating games or mechanics you like (or don't like) helps you understand the hows and whys better than just playing.

A former director of BBC News speaks:

there is no such thing as "age verification." All "age verification" is actually "identity verification." You can coat it in glitter and "privacy-preserving" wrapping paper. But in the end, mandating age verification means mandating surveillance be built into software and hardware. Period.

quite apart from anything else, it’s very hard to argue that Johann Hari’s route back from ignominy was via sincere contrition

This is the coverage of Arday **just in the Telegraph** in the UK. This is only the first four pages of results, just in one outlet.

The sheer volume of people who decided that this story was, actually, when you think about it, about the trans debate…will any of them ever go “wait a second, that’s mental!” - no, of course not.

Indeed. SS embodies the whole sorry mess, in that hardly anyone in it ever saw Arday as a person. For Cambridge he was a way to buff their credentials, to be discarded when he became embarrassing. For Sodha he was a prop to air grievances about “gender ideology”.
