ai is crypto 2 episode 373275

there was chrome (and firefox probably?) extension that went through your all fb liked pages and unsubscribed from them so that when it’s done timeline is gone entirely. fb went after its dev, removed that extension and banned him forever because it kept people off fb https://www.businessinsider.com/facebook-bans-unfollow-everything-developer-delete-news-feed-2021-10 doing this all manually still worked back then, not sure about today

Facebook’s letter took him by surprise, he said, adding that Unfollow Everything had only 2,500 weekly active users and 10,000 downloads.

“It was definitely growing, but it wasn’t huge,” he said.

“Apart from that I just very much saw it as something that improves the Facebook experience for Facebook users,” he added, saying he got “amazing feedback” from people saying they “were using Facebook in a way that was much healthier for them.”

i bet they have some preferences about contractor

a hellish vision has been revealed to me

potentially a common one, but we’ll only know after password leak from somewhere

it’s crazy how people memoryholed that (and japan doing the same, and a handful of other countries). or how until 2022 war norway wasn’t really thought of as petrostate by people who didn’t pay attention. or how ten years ago, if you said that putin bombed apartments to wage war on chechenya to win elections all to pardon yeltsin, people would think that you’re a crackpot

no there’s also racist twitter

i’ve collided with an article* https://harshanu.space/en/tech/ccc-vs-gcc/

you might be wondering why it doesn’t highlight that it fails to compile linux kernel, or why it states that using pieces of gcc where vibecc fails is “fair”, or why it neglects to say that failing linker means it’s not useful in any way, or why just relying on “no errors” isn’t enough when it’s already known that vibecc will happily eat invalid c. it’s explained by:

Disclaimer

Part of this work was assisted by AI. The Python scripts used to generate benchmark results and graphs were written with AI assistance. The benchmark design, test execution, analysis and writing were done by a human with AI helping where needed.

even with all this slant, by their own vibecoded benchmark, vibecc is still complete dogshit with sqlite compiled with it being slower up to 150000x times in some cases

yawn, i diagnose that LWer with weeb. this is something happening across entire industrialized world, causes being high performance mechanization of agriculture, old people being stubborn in regards to moving, lack of specialized work in countryside and couple of other factors. germany has patched their hospice staff shortage (not sure how effectively) with migrants, but japanese are way too racist for that. same thing happens in moldova, but you never hear sob stories about retired moldovans because they’re broke and nobody cares, while moldovan govt can’t really do much about it (because broke) to degree that it has not just economic and demographic, but even strategic effects. whole lotta drs strangelove in there

more like coopting dissent for profit, libertarian selling tshirts with guevara type of thing

and i told you before that it’s officers (pilots are generally officers) that will be doing aerial bombing, and because large force on ground is prerequisite for situations you’re describing, it’s not going to happen

i think this one was purest form of it to date https://www.404media.co/inside-the-world-of-tiktok-spammers-and-the-ai-tools-that-enable-them/

this multicolored pattern looks like this because thickness of layer of whatever is comparable to light wavelength, mechanism is the same as in oil layers on water being colorful. it didn’t spread from magnet, the layer is thinnest near magnet and becomes thicker near edges, which suggest it might be just dirt/oils that accumulated on it by contact. try wiping it with alcohol or acetone or what have you

according to his own claim, and he’s selling his super secret methods. he might be just making shit up

i mean that saudis were somewhat restrained about airstrikes, at least publicly, but this action would cause them to not be so. even if they tried, there are extra air defences dragged to saudi for exactly this purpose; every cargo flight and every extra warship makes odds worse for iran, as more missiles would be intercepted, but even if nobody dies, shooting missiles would have diplomatic consequences. another action that would result in rising oil prices would be iran shooting ships in strait of hormuz, but this would also close access to their own single large oil terminal, and there are american warships nearby anyway, so it’s perhaps unwise decision to make today

at this point, i think that decision to strike already has been made, and they’re just stalling so that more metal can come from across the atlantic. dragging an aircraft carrier out there is not done for no reason, and the second one they want to put out there would need to have some of pre-deployment training shortened and done on the way, which is unusual and avoided because there were accidents that this training was supposed to mitigate

should have glued it in place smh

we’ll see in a month tops

i don’t think it would go the way you think it would go
