@PeterMLittle@mas.to @cstross@wandering.shop better to regulate it so that legal definitions about what you can/cannot do with neural nets of a certain size get on the books, because that would start to demystify the charlatans' "ai" myth

@ricci I wonder if the ai companies will come to this thread for "alignment" related marketing materials

I just met a potential neighbor viewing a house for sale .. he asked what I did and I mentioned eventuality something about wo co ops... later in the conversation it became clear he thought I was planning to turn the building into a coworking space.. :oh_no_bubble:

Oh for crying out loud.. tldr don't trust dillo dot org.. this is so sad
This whole project since October I've been super careful to design everything in a very modular and obviously correct way.. and now I'm outputting rust code and I'm writing just the messiest pile of stuff because I trust the rust
god I'm so tired of tech discourse

@diazona @CStamp that stuff requires more infrastructure on their side, like databases to store your identifiers.. while valuable for ad companies, presumably it doesn't make they cut for airlines.. so they do the easier thing and just store information in your browser (cache, local storage, index db, cookies) .. that's my guess

@adastra1930 thanks. That was interesting to read. Wikipedia says the DEC building was a mill in Sudbury, MA. It sounds like Bill Shannon and the other two engineers who got the UNIX plate were living in or near NH at the time. Thanks again!

The Show instance of this datatype just messed with me. I was trying to learn how to output rust files by parsing and printing out their ASTs. Somehow there was a haskell String showing up as the 2nd argument to TokenTree::Token. However, the 2nd argument to TokenTree::Token is supposed to be a value of *type* Token, which isn't a string. It confused me until I realized that Token must have a funny Show instance. That lead me to find Token::LiteralTok. :goosehonk:
Anyone on here use nostr? The protocol looks interesting, but I haven't ever met somebody using it.
pets vs cattle linux debate is looking pretty silly right now

huh, what's this vivaldi thing? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vivaldi_(web_browser)
"The company is employee-owned."
"The user interface (UI) layer of the browser is closed-source. The C++ backend and the open-source Chromium codebase used in the browser is released under BSD-3."
huh, how do they make money? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vivaldi_Technologies
"...derives revenue from product placement but not data. Its browsers are also AI-algorithm free."
huh??
