the problem with discussing the actual state of machine learning is that you get people who just show up in your mentions wanting to debate some strawman that you never discussed in the first place it is exhausting

@LRRRonEarth I know this is unhelpful but DuckDuckGo's LLM search summarizer can be turned off and is a lot less in-your-face to start with.

Remember "'data scientist' is the sexiest job title of the 21st century"?

@kaneel@mas.to @tante@tldr.nettime.org @davidgerard@circumstances.run The tech-to-trade exodus might actually be a good thing for service price inflation. There are lots of incompetent contractors out there who need competition from hungry tradies, guys (almost always guys) who are charging $200/hr for slapdash jobs just because there's no competition and a shortage of skilled labor.

Seems like no one gets chatbot psychosis from Gemini, just Claude, less often Chatgpt. What's up with that? There's a specific flavor to Anthropic-induced chatbot psychosis too. Openai-induced psychosis is always more "apollonian", in a way, more in the "guys, I think I just 'cracked physics'" sort of way. The Anthropic variant is always more dilletantish, centrist, kind of like "guys, I think the chatbot has become 'real', and it's also my 'friend'".

This administration really is just going to destroy any vestige of soft power the US had left. Would be funny if Trump also announced BYD would be building a factory in like Kentucky or something.

My favorite programming language is Go, though, so stones in glass houses.

Guy's a great writer besides all that other shit he's got going on. "Standards are violated specifically to cause interoperability to fail, software is made specifically to work around issues better solved by excising diseased organs, and restrictions are placed by anyone who makes money using them onto anyone powerless against them. It's clear to me most programmers and their masters would be killed, if politicians understood them." http://verisimilitudes.net/2025-06-06

I should become a Lisp person. Very intriguing creatures, those Lisp people.

Meet the Mayor of a Tiny Texas Town Who Wants to Limit How Cities Can Govern
