  • Feel kind of lucky. They weren’t so toxic when I was good. The only place to really find that was from the notorious Xbox Live kids experimenting with their first ever swear words.

    It was when gaming reached a broader audience and wasn’t just for “nerds” that toxicity became commonplace. Went from making friends with strangers all the time to just default muting mics and avoiding communities.

    Nowadays, the less reflex-deoendent, the more you’ll be surrounded by players from those days and the less toxicity. Compare HLL to MW, for example.

    It will burst. AI is improving at the same rate it always has and no one’s surprised, just LLMs have gotten attention from normal users who seem to think “this is AI”.

    For actual AI, nothing has changed. You still need extremely well governed data and lots and lots of controlled training, lots and lots of condition farming and resolving, all at considerable cost not worth it for BAU, just AI-soecific projects.

    It’s already bursting, as people realise what is AGI and what is non-logic LLMs and why the latter has limited use, especially with awful mass “training”.

    The most realistic outcome is that LLMs are able to assist in increasing the pace of AGI.

    Okay. Well the good thing about science is there’s lots of correlation figures you can go check out at any time instead.

    But there are some more simple ways to see it like how obviously no one was known to have ADHD before it was identified. And how more people have it as it’s definition continues evolving to be more detailed and broad. That’s normal behaviour for conditions in medical science. We must know of its existence before anyone can have it; more people tend to have it as our understanding of the thing improves by leaps and bounds.

    I honestly feel modern take on ADHD is just a label for people that don’t fit into how society wants it.

    Tens of thousands of years, we nurtured those that picked up on the butterfly. Those minds will always be critical to human survival. But it’s only recently, incompatibility with the standard that causes need for more effort, “Well, they must be broken”.

    Nope. They never were. We just got real bad at bringing out the best in everyone. At this rate of classification down the path we’re going, it’ll be weird to not have ADHD.








  • What Deere did was even more harsh. They tried to block off not only self repair, but third-party firmware that made the tractors work better, especially older ones that were out of warranty.

    That’s straight up a major federal crime in my country. So that should give Americans an idea how balanced their scale of justice is at the moment.

    The consumer and supplier ALWAYS get equal and fair protection, lest a business becomes based on ripping people off with product instead of the product itself.
