Especially as root...

It was just a couple of months ago where I found myself complaining that we shouldn't have to pay exorbitant amounts of money for friendship.

Last time I went to a bar a pretty woman and her friends decided to sit next to me only after I closed my tab and was getting an Uber to go back home. She seemed super nervous just sitting next to me and I assumed that if I butted into their conversation I'd get ignored like last time.

Reddit is that way ->

This comment is literally just numbers about how the US has ceded low value add jobs and dominated high value add jobs.

I am asking why this is intrinsically a problem.

Or if it's not intrinsically a problem, then what are the downstream consequences we should care about, and can we talk about them explicitly instead of just assuming the best way to mitigate them is to put our economy into reverse advancement.

While J.B. Crawford's computer.rip is a newsletter and not a blog, I'd say he's popular enough to be on the list.

He is featured in the top 100 list. See here: https://refactoringenglish.com/tools/hn-popularity/?start=20...

It's a good idea for it to work both ways in case doxxing happens. I'm against KYC by any business from a security perspective: my PII shouldn't be available to criminals.

Remember we have about 20 years of poorly written articles along with a few well written ones for the LLM to be trained on. I'm confident that attempting to tell LLM from human writing is a waste of time now that the year is almost over.

Other than that I'd rather choose a comprehensive article than a summary.

Attempting to tell LLM writing from human writing is usually a waste of time, but apparently not in this case.

Did you see the reply from the author to similar statements?

You mean https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=46138663? He said that he mixed up British and American English all the time, but didn't try to deny that the article was AI slop.

That's the same algorithm Youtube has and is more blatant. Phone mics and your coworker's proximity does a great job at picking up things you've said even after disabling mic access plus airplane mode just by process of elimination.

I'll only use an LLM for projects and building tools, like a junior dev in their 20s.

Thank you for speaking to reality of situations that the majority of internet commenters never talk about. I think dang needs to put the HN member lock back on.

There has been a change in behavior in the past few years, in fact it used to be that you could only become a HN member that can comment thus vote by posting a select number of threads before being able to comment. This actually kept the community on the more intelligent, factual, and serious side. Now it's not so serious.

This used to be the only place that I could visit to get away from Reddit behavior. It seems like the more obscure a social gathering is, the less Eternal September it suffers.
