Gotcha, yeah I can appreciate insisting on higher evidentiary standards

Why omit “using” from your summary at the end there? They wrote a whole article about how they love using AI and think anyone who doesn’t is comparatively unproductive. In fact they have over a dozen articles about adjacent AI topics. It’s not really a weak connection at all it’s literally just them saying they do the thing lol

Regardless, the blog itself actually has an AI disclosure: “I use AI heavily on this blog”. Followed by another article about how it is used “correctly” in this case. If you’re just in the mood to argue or whatever I guess we can debate the specific definitions and nuances between literally just copying a whole article from AI output (which they emphatically say they do not do) vs passing your writing through AI to assist you throughout the process

Well, one of the first linked articles is them talking about how much they love using it and how fun it is and how everyone should be using it

I get what you’re saying but not every person needs to be working on the same cause. Even if we did that, America would be pretty far down the list compared to other places at the moment

But thankfully we do have tons of projects going that are run by people who care a lot about that particular thing and feel engaged in it. Sometimes that’s forest conservation, sometimes that’s renewable energy, sometimes that’s human welfare, this time it’s shrimp welfare. And who knows, maybe this concept with the shrimp will give someone pause and actually motivate them to do some of their own unique good for the world

Could I pay them to keep it undelivered?

You wouldn’t get it

It’s literally all blatant bot posts now. Most popular subs from back then are unrecognizable

A lot of men “learn” about sex via porn and later act out things they saw, even if it’s inconsiderate of their partner

To be clear, this is not a new problem caused by AI but I’m not excited about how AI will be interacting with the problem

I was playing devils’s advocate trying to come up with something, since I agree that car horns are obnoxious and repulsive if you’re just chilling at home or eating at a cafe

I wonder if theoretically, we could have mandated radios in cars? That way you could ping the vehicles around you directly? Maybe have a panic button that just causes the interior unit on the vehicles around you to flash?

The apps are advertising that they can do this tho. Many of them are aggressively sponsoring YouTubers who advertise you can basically just wave your phone over the food and it takes away all the “work” from traditional calorie counting apps

Semen, titties, erections and mathematics!

My guess is this is a mythos post

So it “attacks” by seeking vulnerabilities in your code

But using ai to patch those problems will create worse problems (is how the post is reading to me)

Nor does it realize the oil in the bottle needs to reach the hole before it will come out

What happens when the depth of the hole exceeds the height of the knees

Okay, so we should be distrustful of pizzacake in general because her work is popular and relevant to a country she lives 75 miles away from. And this is not fallacious.

But when it comes to literal self proclaimed white supremacists who makes comics where the punchline is “n____”, we have to give each and every argument they make the benefit of the doubt because ultimately someone’s credibility in general cannot ever be used to judge their stance on individual topics?

Edit: so bro posts open and self admitted nazi propaganda and instantly blocks anyone who thinks that isn’t totally irrelevant. Curious

what the fuck do they have left?

Lots of things! Wellness farms, military readiness camps, factory labor. The possibilities are endless!

Save tonight?

The normal people you speak of for the most part are pretty much also just trapped in that very feedback loop. Lots of folks feel very intense pressure to conform to ‘normality’. Comes across in everything they do, watch, listen to, wear, and so on.

Rejection is just that powerful, and people contort themselves to avoid it. Funny thing tho, being your authentic self and thriving in it is actually a form of rejection as well; you’re rejecting their concept of normality. You’re quietly saying that the lengths they go to fit in, the sacrifices they make, are all for nothing.

This is how you give birth to “haters”. People who have no leverage over you via simple disinterest or rejection, so they have to actively try to drag you down to the appropriate “normal” level of misery with them.

However! This is also how you find other genuine, amazing people who make the hours fly by just by sharing their love of the world with you.

I say all this because it can be very intense to encounter your haters. But they’re not who you’re looking for. So it’s very much worth maintaining your excitement for pine cone sculptures or whatever. Everything that brings you joy in this life is gonna motivate some people to want to bring you down. Just respectfully disengage, and keep your beautiful energy intact for the next person

Two units if you consider the absolute unit performing the lift!

Yeah, she’s testing the weight to make sure it really is heavy and not a prop. Feeling it for herself, she then congratulates the lifter

It harkens back to very old strongman shows. Often they would have guest come up to try a weight (or pass the implement around the audience if possible, such as a metal rod they would later bend or a hot water bottle they would later inflate)

It’s actually kind of a current issue with powerlifting as a spectator sport as well. You can tell lifters are struggling and it’s very exciting when they fail a lift and 5 people need to step in to bail them out. But “300kg” is just a number to most people, it’s hard to really convey to onlookers what an insane amount of weight that actually is to have on your back at all, never mind to squat with
