firasd 1 day ago | parent | context | flag | favorite | on: Online art communities begin banning AI-generated ... I think the communities involved here like digital artists, furries etc got a lot of attention hating on NFTs last year, so they are doubling down with the anti-art-generator movement. But I don't think this one will be so successful. Like sure, maybe art community sites could require you to tag prompt-generated art just as a way to label things, but in terms of widespread usage the cat is out of the bag. Whenever I get on Twitter and see someone incoherently angry about people using Stable Diffusion I'm reminded of that quote from an Android in Blade Runner 2049: “You tiny thing. In the face of the fabulous new, your only thought is to kill it? For fear of great change? You can’t hold the tide with a broom.”

twilio is firing and the hackers are mad: anonym29 8 hours ago | root | parent | next [–] To imply there is absolutely no overlap between the group of people espousing CRT and the group of people who believe the world would be a better place if every white person spontaneously died is to be willfully ignorant of an unfortunate reality. We should be taking the opportunity to disavow the latter on behalf of the good intentions of the former. anonym29 9 hours ago | root | parent | prev | next [–] I'll believe this was actually racially blind when Twilio releases a count of each race that was laid off, and the sum of each race for employees in the company prior to the layoff. It's very simple for everyone to verify whether there was racial targeting outside the statistically probable bounds of random selection from the parent group. I have no problem with people being woke as long as we're both working towards a provable shared reality with data rather than rhetoric. Humans lie. Sufficient amounts of data analyzed by a suficient number of people do not. Assuming it was possible to look at the data I call for above, would you be opposed to the public dissemination and analysis of it? spamizbad 8 hours ago | root | parent | next [–] That's not good enough. They could just lie. You need a formal audit conducted by a third party. Anything else is unacceptable.

Ask HN: Where are the interesting conversations? 48 points by seydor 3 hours ago | flag | hide | past | favorite | 41 comments I have this suspicion that conversations that are deep about touchy issues are nowhere to be found on the internet anymore. Perhaps they have moved to late-night dinners with VCs or yacht rides with rich people? Where are the places to start (and continue) conversations about important issues without self-censoring and walking on eggshells?

when rich people do have deep conversations it’s about how they’re going to ride out the decline of civilization without lowering their personal standard of living

xwdv 11 hours ago | parent | prev | next [–] I’ve listened to many conversations in my life. In my experience, listening to conversations among wealthy people or high status people are far more interesting because as a group they have the ability to execute on a larger scale, and they can influence each other far more easily because of the credibility their wealth or status confers. I have been in many rooms before listening to people you would not believe, I was able to get there by simply playing the respected role of a modern day wizard: a software engineer of vast intellect with ability to generate new revenues from code. When I have listened to poorer people or low status “hustler” types talking to each other about big things, it mostly just comes off as myopic philosophizing or bullshit and puffery. Just a bunch of wannabes talking about things too big for the britches I’m afraid. If you spend too much time around these people you’ll get sucked into their delusions and waste years perpetuating terribly misguided thoughts. I talk to poor people when I want to learn about micro scale things: the plight of a gig worker, the struggles of a single mother, the hellish existence of a drug addict, depression, etc. I talk to wealthy people when I want to learn about macro scale things: the logistics of vaccine transport, alternative supply chains, subliminal eugenics initiatives, bureaucratic shortcuts, laundering, etc. And I’m not saying only listen to wealthy people wow how shallow, I’m saying go where wealthy people are and just open your mind and ears. Don’t try to stand out too much and your presence will not be a problem.

ok now if you hang out with rich people, you should also pay a little more attention and notice how the most important thing they use their wealth and power for is to ensure that they have more of it. so you never see those brave and resourceful people talking about or even considering anything that they feel actually impacts them even slightly negatively. but of course those are not the important topics like dEcReAsInG wHiTe bIrThRaTeS that really matter for the average hn poster that are being censored out of the public sphere

jesus christ it's not saying "let ME do something", it's saying "let VARNAME be something" you're literally telling the compiler it has to allow something it's a super authoritative, imperative statement. jesus if they're gonna be stupid you'd think they could at least understand the fuckin language they're being stupid in I expect them to be a bunch of reactionary freaks, but I at least expect them to be reactionary freaks that can parse basic sentences
