oh how fortunate are we to have you, valorous AnomalousBit of programming dot motherfucking dev, to wander past our village and cast upon us the shining beacon of your intellect

truly, without your timely help we would have been at sea, unable to find veracity in the words of the yon governer gavin newsom, be they branded on the scriptures of office or no! oh woe betide us should your clear insight into this most nebulous matter not have come our way this fair day!

now please get back the fuck on the road where you came from and keep your idiotic opinions to yourself. or, y'know, learn to read. both work

took a moment to imagine what happens if this breaks containment

might have to blind myself for a few days

can be activated by appending ? to the end of your searches

what a wonderfully clever interface that absolutely won't go wrong in any number of situations at least 5~10 of which I cannot think of right now

siiiiiiiiiigh

this is something I've been mulling over for a while now too. there are lots of little boring ways in which some of the ML stuff definitely does work, but none of them are in the shape of anything the hypemen have been shouting. and afaict none of them will be able to justify all the investment either (and only some will be able to justify the compute, even then)

couple months back I speculated in one of the threads here that I believe one of the reasons there's such a hard push to get the llms and shit into as much as possible now is because it'll be harder to remove after the air starts going on - and thus allow to buy more time/runway/rent-extraction

thoughts, in order:

  1. wow that's an annoying narrator voice (but I guess you have to stay on brand?)
  2. "oh god, this shit again. but maybe I won't have to endure much of it?"
  3. (timecode: 00:21) checks video runbar "nope.", tab closed

I never hated my parents. They said they loved me, and the cultural wisdom of the science-fictional literature said your parents genuinely love you no matter what you disagree about

"it is said that learning from others is wisdom. but those piddly people around you, pah, what could they know? I shall instead go right to the source, the many works of ~~entertainment~~ ~~idea-exploration~~ ~~drug binge output~~ fine, detailed, highly-accurate scifi literature that man has produced in checks notes the two or three decades that have preceded my birth. for I am yud, and I am very clever!"

given the semi-known depth of google-lawyer-layering, I suspect this presser got put together a few weeks prior

not that I'm gonna miss an opportunity to enjoy it landing when it does, mind you

but but proteins! surely they've got it right this time! /s

(I wondered what you'd say when I saw this. I can only imagine how exhausting)

I managed to listen to this the day you posted it (and then got too goddamn busy) but wow

they're a jam. must've been a phenomenal live gig! I'm jelly!

I've sorely neglected responding to this thread on account of life yaks, and the irony is not lost on me

that said, presently jamming out to this mix: https://soundcloud.com/juelz114/julius-unnamed-road-festival-2024

....this just made me wonder what quotient of all these promptfondlers and promptfans are people who've just never really been able to express emotion (for whatever reason (there are many possible causes, this ain't a judgement about that)), who've found the prompts' effusive supportive "yes, and"-ness to be the first bit of permission they ever got to express

and now my brain hurts because that thought is cursed as fuck
