Seeing what the sycophancy of AI chatbots can do to people's brains, I can't help but wonder about the fact all our most powerful business and political leaders are surrounded by sycophants 24/7.
I suspect they're no more immune to the sycophancy cognitohazard than the subject of this story was.

starting a thread of NPC names I invented that made my D&D party so mad they yelled at me
in 20 years the internet is just going to be billions of apps of unknown provenance spinning up and down like swarms of insects in august, probing each other for vulnerabilities, asking if you need an event planned or some grocery coupons
adventure games from the 80s were intentionally designed to be tricky, mean and occasionally counterintuitive so that you could get stuck for long periods of time. this was called βvalue for your dollarβ
the returns on investment with the local crow population is insane. spent $20 on unsalted peanuts and so far gotten back several flattened bottle caps and a beer can tab. this is the future of the market.

Ai boosters are misinformation peddlers who have been lying about this since 2023 when they lied and said gpt 4 tricked a Taskrabbit into solving a captcha (it didnβt do this btw). These lies have enriched other liars and killed people and they are responsible
what.. how do you get them back!!!!
Threads thread: thriller_instinct 3d Is it okay to bully 40 and 50 year olds who are on social media just for being on it, cuz like why are you here - 254 Q 3.1K G 28 746 corporateash 18h β’β’β’ My ICQ UIN is 7231680. That number is burned into my consciousness. I inadvertently learned that you could see private conversations in public chat rooms when using Telnet instead of a browser on GeoCities. I can tell you the difference in audible dial-up handshakes between 1200, 2400, 14.4 kbps modems. I needed a edu email address to join Facebook after my university was admitted. We were here at the beginning. We made social media. You wouldn't be in my Top 8. I have usernames older than you. 852 Q62 G6 72
βI have usernames older than you.β.
Holy shit
This is something I really have noticed and have remarked upon
Americans seem to fucking hate other people. There's little social cohesion. But that's been manufactured, you need to be able to sell out and walk over your peers to get success, who all might have a gun to kill you btw
this is how multiplayer games treat your data while demanding you install kernel level secureboot rootkits to βprevent cheatingβ lol
i'm not an economist but if 900 people can afford to fund $3,000 checks to damn near everyone else in america and still be insanely fuckin rich afterwards maybe they have too much fuckin money

Username expired @rune@sound-city.dk @dysfun @cthos @davidgerard I think one of the tangible difference (not sure it is exactly from december, I don't use LLMs) is that "agentic" models exploded the quantity, not quality, factor of LLMs. Developers can now make the LLM run many more sequential queries without having to interact with the model and review the code, so the LLM can make something eventually "work" before the developer has to review anything and at that point there is so much code it overwhelms the human ability to review all the small details and identify the problems in the code. End result seems to be that confidence in the model output sky rockets and they then spend all their extra time trying to convince everyone else that they aren't in the middle of some kind of psychosis.
why the vibe coding addicts are getting even more rabid, a hypothesis

seems bad
The future is kind of just a bunch of dogs shitting on the floor forever but they've all got these horrible white guy human faces and they keep going "Things are changing. Fast. Don't get left behind. This is the future. Catch the wave" over and over and over really fucking loud
This continues to be painfully true
do you think adoptables know that they're adopted
i don't think i can say this any more directly:
if you want to get better at something, you have to do it a lot
there are other requirements but that one is non negotiable
