1·1 month agoThank you for the link. I didn’t realise that Google had a deal with Reddit as well, which explains why it was clearly indexed from Reddit.
I agree that AI doesn’t have a clue what an accurate response is. It’s just not sentient enough to differentiate between shitposting and fact. I also totally agree that an answer given from a search result HAS to be accurate, and we’re heading down a path of a misinformation super highway if LLMs are trained on incorrect data.
I’m confused a little by the LLM’s and datasets here.
OpenAI and Reddit have their partnership for training, so I would have assumed the pizza glue answer would have come from an OpenAI result, but Google doesn’t use OpenAI. How did Google give an answer that was clearly scraped from Reddit?

Fuck cancer
5·6 months agoOddly, the long service leave varies from state to state/territory. One state gives 6 weeks at 7 years, another gives 12 weeks at 10 years.
We moved country earlier this year, and my wife misses “dim sims”. Truely unique
I believe you when you say you’re not anorexic, or ever had anorexia, but as a 43 year old man, who is 185cm tall, my healthy range is 63-86 kilos.
I am 82 kilos give or take a meal, and if I lost 15 kilos I would be very, very slender, and that would still keep me well in the “healthy” range.
What I’m saying is the healthy range, to me at least, should be taken with a pinch of salt, and it’s shithouse that your diagnosis has vexed you for over ten years.
ChatGPT has entered the teenage years.
I haven’t thought about that song for literally years…. And now it has wormed its way back in.
101·11 months agoI installed G-HUB the other week, and my only annoyance with it so far was the amount of times it informed me of the mouse DPI settings. Thankfully that was easy enough to turn off, but what other things about it are troublesome?
I don’t really care for profiles, or RGB settings… is it bad in other ways? (Genuinely curious, not meaning to sound snarky)

This little quote helps make me thorough in my work
This is rad! Thanks for sharing that… I have now passed it on to a group of friends who will get a kick outta it
I had typewriter classes back then!!! Homework came on “photocopies” from a handcranked machine that had a lot of rollers from memory. I have no idea what it was, but it was witchcraft!
Edit: I looked it up for curiosity sake, and the “witchcraft” machine might have been called a mimeograph.
I got excited when we got a math-coprocessor for our 386 33MHz. I tried my hardest to get a sound blaster card so I didn’t have to use PC speaker to play games (namely TFX), but it was deemed too expensive for little reward.
Bold. I like it, and I am you, just in another body… but bold comment. Let’s see how it fares

Here’s a little nostalgia trip for you
I think I found a link without 2 fucking unskippable adverts beforehand!
From my vague recollection,
1: Main entrance. Trains would enter here and pull up to the long platform.
Prisoner platform that ran a few hundreds meters in length.
An officer/doctor would be at a table around here, and would evaluate in a moment whether they were to be sent to the housing sheds, (4) (6), or if they were to walk down to gas chambers located at 5.
Intact “housing” sheds that have not been demolished and are currently preserved.
Mass extermination gas chambers and four crematoriums.
Razed “housing” sheds after the liberation of Auschwitz Berkenau (Auschwitz II). I think nearby residents and farmers took a lot of the material for rebuilding the area after the Nazi’s lost the camp to the Soviets.
Taking a tour around Auschwitz and Auschwitz II was a very sobering experience that left me quite numb… and while it was quite upsetting, worth doing if you can make the journey
