  • Can someone who works in an industry or for an employer with clear negative impacts on society/the world maintain a clear concience?

  • Haha that's awesome

  • Using AI for image transcripts, yay or nay?

  • If I were blind I'd prefer it if the app just hid all image posts from me. The alt text, when it exists, is going to be trash most of the time anyway.

  • AI data centers face increasing complaints about inaudible but 'felt' infrasound — citizens complain high- and low-frequency sounds do not register on decibel meters but cause adverse health effects

  • The only large mainstream competitor, which would probably benefit from github's troubles: "We saw github breaking itself regularly because of it's own slop coding AND flooded with trash vibe coded projects and thought - that's where we wanna be!"

  • MAU vs UE

  • "Impressions" is the amount of time a piece of content was viewed. This is a key metric in advertising-based situations because you want to know the ratio of clicks on the thing vs how many impressions it has to judge how effective a bait it is.

  • Yep. This is a setting I put in for my instance only, not hard-coded.

    Various domains have warnings for different things.

  • That's interesting.

    How much ram did it use while running?

    If you used a GPU, how much does it cost in today's prices?

  • Ah that is interesting, I missed that the first time.

    So the author instance would be responsible for federating activities, not the instance hosting the community? That could be very beneficial for spreading load across the network! But maybe it would complicate moderation because the author could ignore moderator's commands to delete the post and stop federating it.

    Jump

  • I prefer to receive individual vote activities because then my blocks and defederations will remove votes from instances that I don't want.

    e.g. I'm using instance A and subscribed to a community on instance B. Posts in there receive votes from instance C but because I've defederated from C (for vote manipulation, perhaps), none of the votes from C have any effect on me. They would have an effect on B and that's good - it's up to them.

  • The assessment of samskara was broadly correct in that case, I'm not disputing that. And yes, in his own definition, he is a Zionist.

  • Well, the cat is out of the bag now. Might as well show the whole story.

    That told me everything I need to know about how much to trust the summaries…. very little. I honestly don’t think they are much of a value add, because you just can’t reliably trust the results. In any case, we have absolutely no plans to use llms for that on a regular basis, I just wanted to see what it came up with, and how well it matched a manual assessment.

    Lies.

    You provided a link to that assessment as proof that a ban was warranted. Here's a screenshot from the mod log:

    That link goes to https://s.faf-pb.xyz/lXxek if anyone wants to take a look
