Agreed. As near as I can tell, that would imply voting either Green, or if you have the option for some (but by no means any) independent.

Given that LLMs are ‘trained’ (even that term is an anthropomorphisation) on data produced by humans, and humans are famously known for not wanting to be switched off - it’s not surprising a stochastic reduction of most likely responses tends to produce termination avoidance 😀

Yep. Mick Young has been my go to baseline for measuring the decline in political integrity and accountability for decades now.

I agree. I’m sure I’ve never done anything that bad 😀

Not so. We never replaced vinyl with tape. They were commensurate. And both were replaced at the same time by CDs.

I wonder how it would change things if that wealth was simply confiscated from those fifty families and use to double the wealth of the bottom 50% ?

I know it’s not that simple ~ eg., wealth is not income, etc… but it’s an interesting thought.

And a reminder that power is exercised as choice.

If you know how LLM inference works, learn the correct way to specify requirements and work out your algorithms first, AI is pretty useful for coding support

I can get 800-line modules out of it in minutes - no sweat

It’s code - if it works it’s correct

It is shit at data definition.
¯\_(ツ)_/¯

The stories benches could tell…

Fair play.

But you did all decide that effect and affect were too hard to figure out and now we’re stuck with impactfulness. 😀

Well in my time old people were saying well in my time old people were saying well in my time….

I could say something similar.

I have at times reflected that my life was basically funded by the chaos I was always cleaning up.

¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Oh, I think I will happily bash them until they raise benefits above simply-cruel levels, come up with a genuine housing policy that can restore affordability, fix the dog’s breakfast that is healthcare funding, and you know, generally start acting like they are a progressive government. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

That would be welcome.
I won’t be holding my breath.

Policy is one thing. But we will only ever reach a small minority with policy.

We need to tell stories more people can see themselves in.

Outsider and enemy narratives are a dead end.

I think the country wants a better story.

Agreed. And real public housing not just ‘welfare’ housing to tide people over.
