This is either a straight up lie or an extreme stretching of the truth.

This is from the Danish models but literally this is what it puts as autocomplete for “woman are …”

> woman we not worth as much as men

And it’s not a one off. It’s been going around social media that autocomplete for a long range of other initial phrases are just as stereotypically chauvinistic or racist. It’s pretty clear that no effort was taken at all to sanitize the models.

And no, it’s not using your chat history, though it used to do this. Which just makes things worse as there things are being spread because everyone who draws attention to it on things like Facebook are immediately accused of being a racists or chauvinist.

It feels silly with this coloring of TikTok as the evil when meta, Google and a dozen other American companies are doing the same, just less successfully because they let advertisers and corporate interests buy priority in the algorithm which literally just boils down to “you likely like the same stuff as people who like the same stuff as you”.

That is to say it’s so obviously false if you want to see for yourself just download the app.

Seems people are already mass migrating to Rednote. I’m not sure how that plays out though.

It’s not. A lot of weight should be put on the concept of “legitimate business”. Let’s say you decide to open up a car dealership and you use an LLC to buy cars then transfer them to another LLC and sell them. Then declare bankruptcy on the one containing the bills. You won’t be shielded, and you’ll likely go to jail for fraud.

The construction is to allow a business to go bankrupt with limited liability not to allow the expense account of a business to go bankrupt.

If this is as promising as it sounds it’ll surely process through the stages as it should and eventually reach human trials.

Yes, it hasn’t been brought up during the last four years because he wasn’t president. Now that he’ll be president again it’s suddenly relevant.

Interesting, do you have a link? It’s the first time I’ve ever heard of such a case.

Counter argument: Pretty much every other nation has socialized healthcare and still allows sugary beverages and tobacco products.

People may not like Oracle, but the arguments against them owning the trademark on the grounds that it’s used to refer to the thing that it actually is, are extemely weak. I can see the non-use argument being a viable path though.

It’s the exact opposite though. Whenever someone says ECMAScript they actually mean “I want to say JavaScript but for legal reasons I’m using another name for it” but that also happens so rarely that it’s not worth considering.

If I invent a new term for iPads and say “well actually when people say iPad they mean ECMApad which is technically the same just a different branding of it” that doesn’t give me grounds to have Apples trademark on iPad discarded.

Programmers may not like it, but JavaScript is a pretty well established and robust trademark and people use it correctly to refer to the same one thing. The problem really just is that people don’t like the owners of it, but that’s hardly a case to have it invalidated.

Oddly though every such thing that “defies explanation” also defies being reproducible in controlled experiments.

That’s the thing a about non scientific stuff like this. If it actually worked it would literally just be science and we would be able to reproduce it.

If you buy a magic moon rock that lets you only roll 6’s on dice, you would equally be left feeling that the 1/6 of the time that it worked was proof enough to you that it was actually true, because you bought yourself a bias along side the useless rock.

Same is true a lot with things like yoga for anything outside the Pilates component, it only “works” if you dedicate enough time and money to it, at which point you’re just biased because you don’t want to feel you’ve wasted your time and money. Sure 1/20 might find that it “cured” their illness, but only if that’s the rate of improvement in a control group as well.

Back 20 years ago if you got too drunk it was just a funny story people would retell, now at least in college it’s a fixed part of your online persona as anyone who knows you will have videos of it share with them.

Honestly do you not even see how naive this idea is that the only thing standing between a subject that literally everyone spends a ton of time on getting good understanding of is a renaming or a catch phrase? Even people who read tons of blogs of “actually it simple just…” end up spending time getting to know it. And every one of those people writing those blogs spent a ton of time on it which is why they are writing blogs about their “eureka moment” that will forever make the subject and instantly learned matter.

Says everyone after having spent months getting the hang of it and more months writing blogs about how everyone is wrong to think it’s difficult because when you think about it “ A Monad is just a Monoid in the Category of Endofunctors”

It’s incredible just how blind most programmers are to the time they spend on learning things to come to the point where they think a subject is simple and how they all assume that any junior should just listen to their magical recital of a boiled down explanation and immediately understand it at a fundamental level.

These days I’d be surprise if asking Copilot to start the product wouldn’t cut of the equivalent of 6hours of the Haskell development time.
