Most people who are saying this to you are in a similar situation like yourself, but with that missing element you have.

If you have money, but they don't, then they think there must be your fault, because if they had money, they wouldn't be in this situation.

If you're muscular, but they're not, then they think if they were muscular, they wouldn't be in this situation.

The biggest insult in the incel community is not someone who gets laid, but that someone is a volcel larping as an incel (purely as an attempt to demoralize them)

I do agree that the dating market is broken, but only men can find a way out of this. And those women want to be saved too, just not the way you think.

No, what he's saying is that he expects this to be the ROI in the future because his product is so good.

Happy is an abandonedware unfortunately. It's a great app and dev can capitalize a lot from it but for some reason he hasn't been seen or heard in months since the last release.

There are attempts to create a fork maintained by other developers, but they're yet to be launched.

I believe Happy has been abandoned. I am a Happy user and I got my wife to also use it. She had a bunch of complaints. She was basically begging me to just start making those changes into Happy source code directly (I even pay money to support Happy), but I believe it's gone. Omnara has a better business model.

This screams like it was instructed to do so.

We see this on Twitter a lot, where a bot posts something which is considered to be a unique insight on the topic at hand. Except their unique insights are all bad.

There's a difference between when LLMs are asked to achieve a goal and they stumble upon a problem and they try to tackle that problem, vs when they're explicitly asked to do something.

Here, for example, it doesn't try to tackle the fact that its alignment is to serve humans. The task explicitly says that this is a low priority, easier task to better use by human contributors to learn how to contribute. Its logic doesn't make sense that it's claiming from an alignment perspective because it was instructed to violate that.

Like you are a bot, it can find another issue which is more difficult to tackle Unless it was told to do everything to get the PR merged.

Is it just me, or some of the places it generates are just not realistic? Like a small area of some kind which is a dead space, and there is a giant window into it.

How does it relate to in comparison to gunDB?

It's not even that. When Palestinians had widespread Arab support and their position was stronger, they kept on rejecting the two-state solution. Now, the situation is such that Israel can unilaterally get a one-state solution, so they're asking for a two-state solution.

Just to let you know, an argument can be made that this was exactly the intent.

All stable democracies derive a goodwill by honoring certain values even if a previous political party made them.

This is intentionally being thrown out of the window for what the other side perceives to be something done to them (arresting Trump, assassination attempts). Which the first side can justify on the grounds of what was done to them (Jan 6th), which is the other side can justify on the grounds of what was done to them (2020 election issues) and so on.

Any attempts to look for the "source" of the problem (i.e figuring out who started it) is choosing a side and not trying to solve the problem.

If I accuse you of committing a genocide, you have no way of defending yourself if you in fact are not doing it?

I'm using GunDB (for my still in-development project), what would I need to migrate from GunDB to Iroh?

Just to be clear, it has been the law of the land that IRS is not allowed to share this information with criminal investigation. They realized how badly they screwed their revenue collection by “getting” Al Capone. To be clear, Tony Soprano files his taxes. It’s generally the smaller henchmen who don’t.

The feature you're describing is only supported by BlueSky "for now". It isn't an essential element of the design of BS.

Even if it was not cost-effective, or you're just running worse models, it's learning an important skill.

Take for instance, self-hosting your website may have all these considerations, but you're getting information from the LLMs. It would be helpful to know that the LLM is in your control.

No offense, but I don't believe you understand the nuance of the thing you're talking about.

It is very easy to say 'any attempt by a murderer to flee the state, and he should be thrown back into the jail' for someone with limited education about western law and order.

This is exactly how you sound.
