Abusing privileged identities like this to do things is apparently a thing the younger hackers are quite good at so this will all be fun.

Painting a cross on the skull of the pope and then claiming this is wrong is a whole new kind of heresy.

Nobody show that picture to the mensware guy.

E: him being mad at the people who look up to him is very Julius Evola declaring himself a super fascist after fascism loses however, so no kudos to him. Fascist geeks vs fascist geeks.

Yarvin is the brain

"We should give them cookies"

Sorry nope didnt keep a link.

What a makes this story even weirder was that the ai script apparently talked about forgiveness, but he still got a year more. Which doesnt sound very forgiving to me. Anyway it is going to start to be really fun and messed up when they make the AIs interactive. Esp when they go off script during cross examinations or something like that.

Polymarket on the new pope skeet

Also there already is a bsky user with the username leoxiv, who makes from what I can tell final fantasy poses, some nsfw. Lol.

I know the Rationalists tend to like (or used to) Freakonomics (contrarians recognize contrarians), and the Freakonomics podcast (there always is a podcast isn't there), so I was amused to see the YT channel 'Unlearning Economics', do a 'The Death of Freakonomics' episode.

Story goes he got an extra year of prison and the judge mentioned the ai testimony.

If I ever get murdered in the USA and my ai fake is not shouting about jury nullification you know it isnt the real me.

The anti-christ also needs to be universally liked iirc. And the Catholic church explicitly bans calling out a time (and thus a person) as the anti-christ. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fifth_Council_of_the_Lateran if by a miracle I'm declared Pope (which is technically possible (yes, im unironically linking to r/neoliberal, it was one of the first hits on google, but I'm never beating the accusations)) I will excom all these people, Oprah giving out cars style. (vote for me you cowards).

Re: the white smoke, anyway, still available to become an antipope at reasonable rates.

As a Dutch person, why can't yall be normal about bikes? Just invest in separate bike lanes and protect people on bicycles from drivers (I really need to write out my manifesto blog post on how I think car ownership turns you into a psychopath one day). It isn't that hard. (Shoutout to the couple who was crossing the Houtribdijk (actually a dam, not a dike) on bikes last week)

She killed herself over EA sexual abuse. EA did massive damage control over this (including some defenses from Scott which as a professional he simply should have said because it spread typical myths about fake accusations/people in situations like this). Lot of people were hurt, disregarded and treated horribly. She wasn't the only one suffering from abuse (PolyamorousNephandus on reddit also spoke openly and a lot about abuse suffered by her). Try searching the reddit sneerclub archives for more. It is, due to the subject matter a subject we should be careful and serious about however. EA seems to have added procedures and people to adres stuff like this after everything but not sure if LW did for example. Also due to only looking at it from the outside I have no idea if this helped or if a whisper network is still the best defense people have. (This article from 2023 (for which PolyamorousNephandus said she was interviewed, which is how I found it) does not fill me with much hope).

Only as blackhats as that is going to be the only way to get money, nobody hires non ai security, but an exploit goes for millions.

There was research showing that every linear jump in capabilities needed exponentially more data fed into the models, so seems likely it isn't going to be possible to get where they want to go.

Remember the min age on twitter is 13, so this is also a csam generator. Also holy shit stop asking LLMs what their internal processes are, it will just bullshit about those.

That is like 20 years in young coder years.

Yeah lot of people are fully into they are just trolling. But I have seen that go bad so often (chapo, redscare, vaush, for a few obvious examples) im very much not trusting them to not turn out to be bad. Esp when it is their 'job' to do this. Quite easy to throw a few minorities under the bus for clout. And actively making people crazier/spreading misinformation like this is not great imho.

(E: that I could easily create a list of accounts who I think fall on this spectrum, who still have a lot of followers also isnt great).

That part was a bit tongue in cheek. scott ssc did claim he was being brigaded by sneerclubbers once while he was in a debate with one of the sc mods (that is where the 'one man brigade' flair came from). They tend to dramatize just how big and mean we are. Other scott had one regular self proclaimed sneerclubber and several neonazis in his comment section, and the former seemed to bother him the most for example (I never reacted on his blog after I realized how bad the existence of sc was for his mental health (he has long ago stopped mentioning us and has since dropped of my and most peoples here radar however which is prob for the best esp as in the lw space he isnt that important)).

Wonder if the big cyberpunk authors wrote about that, somebody prob knows.

Looks like elon and the others fell for it tbh, not so much you. (Note his screenshot showed he liked and retweeted it).

Every time you pay a worker the risk of them owning a little bit of the companies stock increases. And workers owning the means of production is socialism, so that means paying workers is for commies.
