your third sentence here is a non-sequitur – do you mean to say disposable razors better work on longer hair that safety razors?

If done right(it won’t be), it could replace cash.

how are you people still doing this. every other cryptonut on the planet finally moved on from this talking point in 2022 when it was very clear that beenz.com was and is not the backbone of any kind of stable anything

and, for the love of god, having the economy slightly inflationary, physical, fiat, not public, and manipulatable by an administration according to changes in market demand – is a goddamn feature of the system, not a bug. it’s actually both good and critically important that the US is capable of changing things like interest rates to maintain an economy

slopologia

i aim to please

alright, fine, i’ll do it.

How to Use Em Dashes (—), En Dashes (–) , and Hyphens (-)

Grammar Nazis (as opposed to the regular kind) publish a guide on how to best calibrate your printing press to 17th-century standards. Several Hackernews (some of which are the regular kind) offer their own competing, more-detailed guides in response. The concern is raised that using too many typographic dashes makes you sound like ChatGPT, to much dismay of those still diligently copying from the Google (business model: “Uber for glue pizza”) results page for “em dash”. Multiple Hackernews take the opportunity to call the group of people who do not care about the millimeter difference between the types of dashes “NPCs”.

claiming to have customers you don’t actually have so vocally that they have to sue you to get their names out of your mouth should be a death knell on its own, but the whole “pretending their already-expired three-month trial contract is still in effect for the full year” is a great way to find yourself pulling a Sam Bankman-Fried, except that you don’t have a side company to pull $$$ from to cover your tracks

Al sales startup AI start-up claims…

much better :3

random guess, but: "11x” is the name of the company, that’s not “eleven times”

some video-shaped AI slop mysteriously appears in the place where marketing for Ark: Survival Evolved’s upcoming Aquatica DLC would otherwise be at GDC, to wide community backlash. Nathan Grayson reports on aftermath.site about how everyone who could be responsible for this decision is pointing fingers away from themselves

[hacker voice] i’m in

it’s the same playbook, to be sure

it’s cool that you discovered a word that lets you call Asahi Lina unnecessarily dramatic and attention-seeking in a way that lets you believe you “never gave an oppinion on the matter” and that you’re just neutrally observing a scientifically studied phenomenon!

wait no “cool” isn’t the right word now is it

women do not owe you the details about why they leave a community and if you/the community as a whole feel entitled to the answer, then you have the fucking answer

i’ve heard it said before from people better at wording it than i am, but seeing this: it’s crystalizing for me that people really do see “a trans woman” as “a woman i’m still allowed to abuse”. i can call her mannish, i can tell everyone she’s making it all up, i can call her hysterical and dramatic, i can freely speculate on her mental state to the approval of my peers, and no matter what she does – leave loudly, leave quietly, stay and suffer the torment – it will always be her fault and she will always be doing it wrong

as requested, my liege

A WELL TRAINED AI can be a very useful tool.

please do elaborate on exactly what kind of training turns the spam generator into a prescription-writer, or whatever other task that isn’t generating spam

Edit: to add this is partly why AI gets a bad rap from folks on the outside looking it.

i’m pretty sure “normal” folks hate it because of all the crap it’s unleashed upon the internet, and not just because they didn’t use the most recent models off the “Hot” tab on HuggingFace

It’s China Syndrome but instead of nuclear reactors it’s AI.

what are we a bunch of ASIANS?!?!???

the post is fake regardless, its just another rightwing shitpost account. doubt there’s a kid at all

good longpost, i approve

honestly i wouldn’t be surprised if some AI companies weren’t cheating at AI metrics with little classically-programmed, find-and-replace programs. if for no other reason than i think the idea of some programmer somewhere being paid to browse twitter on behalf of OpenAI and manually program exceptions for “how many months does it take 9 women to make 1 baby” is hilarious
