War machine is comically stupid join the army propaganda slop

I thought the ML community on bluesky was dead before following some of this advice 👇🏼Article by @nsaphra.bsky.social nsaphra.net/post/bsky/

It's kind of funny to imagine they aren't using this as a synecdoche for their homeland but that their homeland is actually the play set

must be nice

Genuinely cannot wrap my head around not being struck at the power of distilling culture into bits to rearrange them or derange them. To say nothing of diffusion models. Placing all culture on an immanent spatial plane precipitates the emergence of new vectors of association among those bits!

the dumbest form of politics is yelling at voters after you lose. if you lose it is *always* your fault. every confounding factor in the universe is your job to overcome. if you take a position that is unpopular and don't adjust to learning that, you are bad at running for office.

It is literally the job of elected officials to rally voters. That is exactly the job description. I am going insane

the price of oil surging means you can burn your shein clothes, extract the oil, and make more money than you paid

I've tried to read like four different Virilio books and they are almost completely inscrutable to me. It's just a collage of hyper-specific examples patched together and you're supposed to just infer their relationship to one another without any explicit guiding abstraction

I don't know how this will sound but as someone who has lived with suicidal ideation for decades but never felt compelled to act on it, the one thing I desperately wanted to remedy feeling that way was just to be pulled out of my solitude. Not to be "checked in" on or talk to a therapist, but...

This. This. This. 🎯🎯🎯 I wish more people knew this. It's like carrying narcan. I keep it on me at all times. Everyone should be QPR trained. Everyone can prevent suicide.

Generative AI is operationalized Schizoanalysis

Reminder that every current LLM will happily tell you how to do DIY HRT, while the vast majority of actual therapists and endocrinologists will bleed you for years of conversion therapy just to dose you on 3mg semiweekly or some shit.

Her work is cool as hell too www.instagram.com/reel/DR0UvIi...

New media artist Erica Lapadat-Janzen was dog-piled for using AI in her art practice so she coded each reply into one of six categories, and analyzed them like data and conducted this presentation on what happens when critique collapses in favor of "punishment dressed up as morality."

the Arc browser seemingly disabled the ability to hold down the back button to get a drop down list of previously visited sites within that tab and it's driving me crazy. What the hell

You should dig into how LLMs are developed and the extensive human editorial decision making that goes into ensuring the model responds with outputs the developers intended. There is a reason why grok is the way it is versus Claude or ChatGPT.

This is a bad bill

lol they took down Amazon? nothing works

Oh I see we're kink-shaming now (this is a joke, I am joking)

Never feels worth it to celebrate someone in the Trump administration getting fired since it's just musical chairs of the worst people alive

The most peculiar thing about my parents' FoxNews fanaticism is that it all just seems to slip away while they're watching Food Network shows

Grandfather on my father's side founded his own machine shop which basically became the family business and my farther, now the owner, has worked there his whole life. Dunno about my grandfather on my mom's side, he died before I was born and it's never really come up

Dating really should not be this difficult. Or is it even "dating" when nobody has matched with me for literal months on dating apps

lmao everything is going GREAT

Ken Jennings having beef with Singal is terrific, more like this please

It's giving

That's right. You got no leg to stand on, Newsom supporters. Shut your hole. We don't need anti trans anti homeless greaseball shit. North Carolina is purple, it's not some blue stronghold.

sad news: nermal has been killed by an iranian drone attack on abu dhabi. an innocent victim of a senseless war

Imagining an AI getting sad as it learns that its accepted academic paper won’t be published until 2030

The last two times I updated the OS on my Mac, right before I did it, my files were no longer indexed, i.e., I could not do a spotlight search for a file. Immediately after updating, spotlight search would work again. Am I being paranoid or does not updating de-index my hard drive / cloud drive

every time I think American politics can't get more stupid I am proven wrong

Lmao

Can't wait until he starts slapping tacky golden trim to military weapons

Is this what golden retriever boyfriends eat

No idea who these people are but gotta comment on that Discord Records shirt front and center on Deadline

Boy kibble

So Yasmin basically becomes Ghislaine Maxwell at the end of Industry

Tehran tonight. Twenty people were killed in a US–Israeli attack on Niloufar Square, a busy mixed residential and commercial neighborhood in Tehran. (The photo was taken by Iran’s Student News Network and has been geolocated.)

lmao

But I *want* semantic incoherence! MORE SEMANTIC INCOHERENCE

Like at this point is this stupidity or arrogance

AOIR paper SUBMITTED

Building is under new new management. They require us to set up automatic billing and of course there's a service fee for using it. AND they are making us get apartment insurance. Cool.

Somehow my brother went from being a skateboarder who listened to Bad Religion and the Dead Kennedys as a teenager to now watching FoxNews

ME: pack a bag, we’re flying to kansas MY WAYWARD SON: what kind of bag
