Jumping spiders are the tigers of the mm scale. They jump and pounce, they stare at you and stalk their prey, they carefully plan their attack from a strategic vantage point, they are cute, furry and pettable…so long as you are at least twice as large.

Best. Buds. Having a parade together in Brest, 1939. Getting betrayed is what you get for making deals with nazis. #leopardsatemyface

If I understand you correctly, read more history. the nazis invaded Poland together with the USSR on two fronts (as, you know, best buds), hard to botch that.

When the nazis invaded France…it was the French who fucked up…the nazis didn’t.

Yes, starting stupid wars and botching them in front of the whole world makes you vulnerable.

This is not like reading a book from a library…unless you want to force the LLM to only train one book per day and keep no copies after that day.

The matter is not LLMs reproducing what they have learned, it is that they didn’t pay for the books they read, like people are supposed to do legally.

This is not about free use, this is about free access, which at the scale of an individual reading books is marketed as “piracy”…at the scale of reading all books known to man…it’s onmipiracy?

We need some kind of deal where commercial LLMs have to pay a rent to a fund that distributes that among creators or remain nonprofit, which is never gonnna happen, because it’ll be a bummer for all the grifters rushing into that industry.

What about moonofalabama, sounds similar.

Sometimes it leads me wildly astray when I do that, like a really bad tutor…but it is good if you want a refresher and can spot the bullshit on the side. It is good for spotting things that you didnt know before and can factcheck afterwards.

…but maybe other review papers and textbooks are still better…

they don’t need to, they just need to seize the ground PoPs and block ips to make it unusably slow.

username checks out :D

Twitter’s format feels a bit like yelling into the void and waiting for replies…you may luck out and get some engagement from a hub or a small subgraph of the network. Mastodon makes that stronger by removing the algorithm (I’d like there to be a user-customizable feed sort algo by an array of parameters, not sure what the technical limitations to that are: processing, security?)

Comment trees feel better (to me at least), because there is a hierarchical origin, a native indexing by topic>post>comment>countercomment…it sort of resembles how we relate with the world or navigate maps.

Hah, I thought this was the usual r/sino post, but it’s funny that it is right-wing propaganda. “The soviets are beating us to space” was what got the US to invest so heavily in STEM research in the 60s that it lasted until the 2000s. If this were all the propaganda they did, it would actually be healthy.

I wondered where polio had come from if it had been erradicated, I didn’t know a vaccine could regain strength if mismanaged…

I’d like an indexer good enough to show me real music close enough to what I get generatively from a suno.com prompt. :3

my hero 😎

That’s one of the things I love in lemmy. Moderation transparency.
