@MercuriusFilius "Why are you wasting my time with bullshit gotcha questions? Do you really think this nonsense tells you anything about my skills or ability? Thanks, but I'm not interested in continuing this interview any further."

I hope in the coming days someone is able to explain how we had record turnout but 18M fewer votes than 2020. Both of those things can’t be true.

For decades, Justice Clarence Thomas has secretly accepted luxury trips from a billionaire Republican donor, newly obtained docs and interviews show. These trips appeared nowhere on Thomas’ financial disclosures, and he appears to have broken the law propublica.org/article/claren…

@Lons I went to first grade with a kid from up the street. He was pulled out and sent to a different school. They didn't tell us why. Looking back, I'm pretty sure he was autistic.

@Lons I went to a small town Ohio school in the 70s. I have ADHD. I wasn't the only kid in my class with ADHD.

@ItIsFinch @gorskon The original discussion wasn't about medical data or military designations. You have a physical sex, determined by your genitals. You have a gender, which is your identity. Why do you care how people define their identity?

@ItIsFinch @gorskon And specificity is a total non-sequiter. Specificity *for what purpose*? Why do *you* feel the need to describe people with enough specificity that you need to limit their self-description of their self-identity?u

@ItIsFinch @gorskon You weren't talking about medical care. You were talking about "why do we need to have all these genders?". In response to a post about a guy who's complaining that he doesn't know how to treat you if he can't tell if you're male or female.

After three grueling weeks of interviews, I'm delighted to say that I've accepted a job with @bubble. For the first time in my career, I'm going to be working somewhere where the stuff I love to build *is* the company's product. Can't wait to get started!

@Laelaps Yeah, exactly. Took me until my 40s before I really started to understand it.

@mykola @OpenAI But It doesn't have an interpretation. That's the key thing that people need to understand. Interpretation implies that it's doing something with meaning. But really, it's just stringing words together according to probabilily patterns.

@mykola @OpenAI There are no semantics in ChatGPT, no meaning. It's just patterns of how words are strung together. It has no way to evaluate a concept like "is this true?", because there is no "this".

@mykola @OpenAI I wish I knew how to make people understand: ChatGPT isn't AI. It's just eliza on steroids. It's got no comprehension, no knowledge of what it's saying. It's just picking the statistically most likely next word, over and over again, according to the patterns it's seen.
