I guess it finally crossed a line that the Hitler salute didn’t:

“What we are seeing from Grok LLM right now is irresponsible, dangerous and antisemitic, plain and simple. This supercharging of extremist rhetoric will only amplify and encourage the antisemitism that is already surging on X and many other platforms,” the ADL said in a post on X on Tuesday.

It does until it doesn’t

Fossil fuels are a hell of a drug.

How is this funny?

Yeah those are the ones I was thinking of.

I believe this is from a bathroom in Prague

But moving relative to what?

Maybe if you timed it juuuuuust right you could land somewhere on the planet as it orbits the sun and comes back to the same position once a decade or century or whatever? I mean I guess it depends on how you determine absolute location in the universe. Is that even possible with the universe constantly expanding?

Classy!

The economy as it is both provides and causes problems, but without the advanced economy we have today the majority of the world’s people would starve to death. And yes, technology can be used to bad ends, but I’ve seen a lot of applications of ours and mostly it’s just mundane “getting the job done” stuff that helps everyday people keep functioning.

Yes, there are evil people in my organization, but I feel like I’ve stood up for my principles where it counted. Yes I’ve been demoted for that, and I was much happier afterwards. Someday it may cost me my job, but I will keep losing jobs until I find one where I can be myself.

All things in life are a balance of good and bad, you just have to evaluate whether you are more on the good side or bad side. There are a lot of jobs out there that are just helping people do the stuff they need to get done, generally good. Yes some evil capitalist takes most of the profit and hoards it for their evil purposes, but for me it’s enough to know that I provided things needed by others and helped them to make it through their lives in some small way.

Hence why I’ve been at the bottom of the org chart most of my 30 year career. I moved up one rung once, but after I refused to do some shitty things to people, I ended up moving back down ;-). No regrets.

For me it was enterprise software

I mean every company probably has some bad effect on the world, but there’s also benefit. You have to weight the benefits vs the harm. I don’t feel like I have to be personally evil in my job or that it’s a net negative on society. I think things are better in the world because of my work. Not all things, but better on balance.

If you are smart, you can afford the luxury of not being a complete piece of shit if you get into the right career.

Yeah I agree Bluey FTW.

It may not be watchable but as a parent you end up watching it anyway. And Peppa is one of the better ones to be subjected to IMHO.

I just visited Nashville for the first time in February and visited this thing. Was strange.

I mean I still use it sometimes, I just don’t use that app. It used to be one of my heaviest battery drains even though I didn’t even use it more than a few times a week.

People still use the Facebook spyware app on their phone?

I would not go quietly. After receiving this note, I would go full Mr. Creosote.
