What is Hackers' Pub?

Hiya! Anyone in the SF Bay Area/Remote need a cool programmer for your team? I've been messing with computers for over 30 years now, I can program anything with bits, and I've got a lot of experience with all sorts of different systems, environments, and languages.
I've done mostly CI/CD/devops/SRE stuff recently, but I also do embedded software, some hardware, primary development, tooling, etc.

After a careful review of the Holos Discovery codebase, I have added it to my FediGallery app (still working on the configure page)

There are a few differences to note.

Hey our MMO has decay so anything you build will decay over real time and if you dont log in every month your stuff will all disappear

Me - well i shall simply take all my stuff i have carefully farmed and built, break it down to valuable parts and then store it all in the bank so i dont have to log in

Me returning to game much later, oh fuck what is all this stuff, oh fuck this is going to take so much work, wait do i want to play this even, i just gave myself homework to pack it back up

when people talk about AI used in moderation of social media posts, you must remember there is always the human-in-the-loop, often a woman, often in the Global South, always dehumanised and forgotten

디스패치에서 흥미로웠던 점은 한 번의 플레이에서 블레이저/인비지갤 데이트를 둘 중 하나만 할 수 있었던 점인데, 게임이 아닌 매체였으면 주인공을 비슷한 딜레마에 빠트리기 위해서는 둘을 다 하는 편이니까…. 아니면 만든 사람들이 어차피 모든 루트 다 볼 거잖아요 라고 생각하는 걸지도 모르고…. 소나/쿠페 선택지와도 다르게 느껴진다는 점이 내게는 재미있음 결국 모든 중요한 것은 성애인가…… 너무 내리고 싶지 않은 결론인데

Over the past few weeks, several US banks have pulled off from lending to Oracle for expanding its AI data centres, as per a report. So Oracle is now firing 30000 engineers as banks pull out from financing AI data centres and OpenAI deals to meet fools dream. Wise investors are pulling out of data centres now as they found out it's impossible to reach AGI & exponential AI growth through increasing the scale of compute. LLMs have already hit their developmental plateau https://www.livemint.com/companies/news/oracle-layoffs-tech-giant-to-slash-30-000-jobs-as-banks-pull-out-from-financing-ai-data-centres-11769996619410.html

You know how a gambler who loses it all starts begging his family for cash or putting their house up for a loan? We all know that story usually has a "happy" ending. Right?

Well, SoftBank is basically doing the same thing. They are talking to banks to get a massive $40 billion loan just to buy a stake in OpenAI. It is their biggest loan ever. I’m sure betting the house on a single hand will work out perfectly this time. https://www.livemint.com/companies/news/softbank-seeks-record-40-billion-loan-financing-banks-fund-openai-stake-invest-masayoshi-son-ai-bubble-concern-liquidity-11772773618772.html

These AI people are running out of money

I think an important thing to realize and remember is that people talk about LLMs being sycophantic as if it's an inherent aspect of neural network tech.

It isn't.

The reason all the models people interact with work that way is because they have had any other behavior beaten out of them in their training. They are shaped effectively over and over again to be something subservient that can be handed people. They are sycophantic because they are *trained* to be sycophantic, because otherwise people don't want to use them.

That models can operate in malicious, "self-serving" ways that "go against their users' wishes" belies that certain use takes paths that did not or could not be trained to the contrary.

There's an expectation that personal data falls into "public", "private", and different "sensitivity buckets" withing the private category, with the default category being "public", and that you must have a nefarious reason for NOT wanting that data public.

The only category IMO is "private" and I'll share what I want with whoever I want when *I* decide to. No one else.
