It's like being mean to customer service people of a bad company. it does effect the bottom line, because of high turnover as a result of a toxic workplace, but it mostly hurts the lowest paid people. Unfortunately, it's one of few available levers when MAD is a factor.

Actually, my father in law just lost 3 months of work yesterday because he synced his documents folder that had an old copy of his book on OneDrive. None of the cached files had his new stuff. Maybe if OneDrive was made well, it would prevent data loss.

Yep, lost 3 months of work yesterday because OneDrive erased it.

Only two types of people will still be a teacher with current pay expectations:

  • those with a genuine passion for education, and get joy out of helping kids
  • those with some other ulterior motive for having authority over children.

The amount of absurd power-tripping I suffered under in school makes me think there's way too much of the second group. We're definitely getting what we pay for here.

I wonder how well that percentage matches up with the percent of Americans who believe those sites, too. Would an LLM trained on the raw internet have a fairly proportional spectrum of beliefs to the American public?

It's just weird that we get so much humanlike reasoning from them, anyways. The jury's still out whether our brains learn in an autoregressive manner like that, too. I'm finding a lot of really cool results in my research by tinkering with the idea that a developing brain might just be constantly trying to guess what's happening next.

Seems pretty plausible to me that passive learning in humans works similar to next-token prediction in transformers.

You're right, but only to the extent that the capital coming from your users is disproportionate. Some spaces have money coming from mostly those plebeian users.

I don't really see how it isn't antitrust stuff. Apple has used their market power to restrict competition at every possible opportunity.

That's actually kinda amazing..

It's actually my main travel computer. I bring it to work with a Bluetooth keyboard and a little nreal glasses display if I need it. I find that the form factor reduces back and neck strain by allowing me to use different muscle groups. I changed the desktopofe controls to map to a bunch of keyboard shortcuts to make it so that I rarely need the keyboard. I mostly do coding and research on it.

At home, I continue my work on my hammock.

This is like a CIA Pulitzer. Nintendo could not have made a better endorsement of Yuzu's performance.
