protip: billionaires do not need you to defend them. They are not worthy of your support. And if for some reason they do need you to defend them, they should be paying you for that service.
You know what? My pet peeve is referring to the "tech industry" as though that's a singular thing that makes some kind of sense to talk about. It's not. There's no such thing. It's at least 4 things.
1. Telecomunications (mostly ISPs) 2. IT professional services (design/development agencies, SaaS companies, and clouds) 3. Surveillance (they call themselves ad tech) 4. Semiconductor manufacturing
Sometimes entertainment gets mixed in, but that's its own thing
@inthehands@cammerman that sounds like a much healthier and more effective lense. It's too bad that it would only work if the people with authority also use that same lense.
@inthehands@seachanger I think if they sincerely believe the rules are important, then they need to enforce them. They've been refusing to do that for more then a decade.
@julian Yeah, I've been trying to keep up with it. I've generally stepped back from the swicg lately, although you seem to have the most functional wing of that org. I've imagined reengaging in the future, when I can lead with an implementation. Otherwise it's just more theorycrafting, and there's too much of that already.
If maintainers of real implementations in the forasphere are soliciting input, that might be another story.
But I also want state convergence. No matter what, different hosts are going to wind up with different views of the state of the graph. Why are there no mechanisms to detect that and enable convergence?
gotta say, I'm not at all excited for the next decade of my career to be characterized by fire fighting new prompt injections in places people didn't even think there was a prompt happening
I have more brewing on this topic, because obviously OBVIOUSLY bad faith AI hype is still going strong. But, in the meantime, I would like to point out that I said these words a full year ago.
FYI: you do not, ever, gotta hand it to 'em, if they're fascists. If the worst person you know made a great point, they're still the worst person you know and you need to stop letting them shape the way you think.
@arichtman@steffo oh, hang on, it's possible I'm confusing this with fedodo. Although it does look like development has been slow on takahe for a few months
