Oh boy. You’re about to discover the wide world of male sex toys and it’s gonna rock you.

Also their role system is badass. It’s incredibly fine grained and makes it possible to manage large communities with plenty of different user levels.

There’s something intensely mysterious to me about the American relationship to sex and relationships. As a result i am unable to understand the responses to this story.

What’s the deal with the boyfriend caring so much about who his partner’s parents kiss and fuck ? And then immediately accusing OOP of trying to set him up ? Seems like an unhealthy level of paranoia towards someone who’s been at your side for years. I also wouldn’t blame OOP for not warning their bf because there is nothing to warn about, it’s just an intimate detail of their sex life and ultimately a banal and unimportant one.

The fact that they were bad parents isn’t a result of their open marriage, it’s a result of them being shitbags.

But we are talking about freelancers, not about SEO or content marketing, more like content filling

Most SEO is done by freelancers (at least in my industry). When i talk about content marketing i mean anybody who writes blog posts and LinkedIn posts for companies. It was already shit long before AI arrived.

Yeah I’m not bashing anybody, my wife did that for a couple years I know how it is. There was a kind of golden period where it would even pay enough to let you do some quality stuff but when VC money stopped raining the market slumped almost immediately.

I think the bitter lesson here is that there’s a bunch of jobs where quality has zero importance.

If you take for example, content marketing, SEO, and ad copy writing… It’s a lot of bullshit, and it’s been filling the web with gpt-grade slop for 20 years now. If you can do the same for cheap I don’t see a reason not to.

I’m not much into it but I think Polyphia is a good example. I once got down a rabbit hole of related bands on YouTube, I don’t remember the names but it definitely is a scene. It’s hyper technical, definitely progressive, but you’ll hear little if any overdrive, kind of like the latest Tool album but taking it even further.

Tim Hansen from Polyphia is like nothing I’ve ever heard. He even plays on nylon strings most of the time, and he just shreds the fuck out of it. Check him out on YouTube if you haven’t already!

There’s also Polyphia and that whole movement of progressive metal with no distortion. Their technical level is stellar.

I don’t know about the US but in European GDPR parlance, of it can be reversed then it is NOT anonymized and it is illegal to claim otherwise. The correct term is pseudonymized.

Artists are perfectly able to use the fediverse, that is not what is stopping them.

They don’t come because they need to be where their fans are. That is why Cara will only be a splash: their niche is artists who place more value on the anti-AI slant than on meeting their audience where it lives. By definition that is not conducive to a lot of organic growth.

I’ve worked on a couple of Saas in Europe and thankfully GDPR has shaken things a lot. What you have to look for is terms of use where you are the controller, and the Saas is only a processor. In that case they don’t have the right to use the data you generate for their own purposes. This generally excludes telemetry like product analytics and logs, but even those must not include any user data, just an opaque id and technical informations.

It is not a false dichotomy though.

Being mentally healthy and well integrated does not require you to live in a perfect, just and balanced universe. It requires you using all the cognitive, psychological and philosophical tools at your disposal to deal with the universe on its own terms.

Keeping yourself depressed for the sake of “not being deluded” is in itself a mental illness symptom, and only has negative consequences for everyone.

Large language models like GPT, llama, and Gemini don’t create anything new

That’s because it is a stupid use case. Why should we expect AI models to be creative, when that is explicitly not what they are for?

Disclaimer : I currently work in the field, not on the fundamental side of things but I build tooling for LLM-based products.

There are a ton of true uses for newer AI models. You can already see specialized products getting mad traction in their respective niches, and the clients are very satisfied with them. It’s mostly boring stuff, legal/compliance like Hypercomply or accounting like Chaintrust. It doesn’t make headlines but it’s obvious if you know where to look.

Love it, please keep up the good work!

I"m not sure what lie and what datasheet you’re referring to ?

Can’t blame you when some people non-ironically use that argument all the time

Sounds like a recipe for disappointment tbh. But on the other hand, sounds like you trust techno marketing a bit too much.

Agreed, I’ve had to mix an entire live show recently and Ardour + a few open source VSTs did the job wonderfully. Took me maybe an hour to get my bearings but it is very well done.

I thought the sarcasm in my comment was self evident 🤔
