This Is Just To Say I have downloaded the data that you shared on your website and which you were probably expecting to be yours Forgive me it was exploitable so profitable and I don't believe in consent #AI #OpenAI #LLM

@hacks4pancakes@infosec.exchange Note to male colleague: When you find yourself in this situation, do not return the look of the candidate. Direct your gaze at your female colleague. It makes it clear that she's the one the answer should be directed to, and perhaps the candidate might figure this out. Also: not just for interview situations. Also also: still don't hire the guy.

@miki_lou @smutmag Committed activists welcome as many people as possible into their movement. Committed activists don't get hung up on unimportant stuff, and don't alienate potential allies. Committed activists pay attention to the community they are creating.

@futurebird @gdinwiddie No thanks, I already chove today, and don't feel the need to be chiven for a while.

@flargh@mastodon.social Wait, these aren't the Epstein files that were released (as promised)? I thought "UFO" was some legalistic acronym, for "Underage Fornication Offenses", or something like that. Yeah, release those files.

@peter_mcmahan@mas.to @davidgerard@circumstances.run This is new to me, and is the most barftastic thing I've seen in a while.

@_L1vY_@mstdn.social About 20 seconds in she said "ethical standards" and I started laughing.

@mattbors@mstdn.ca @glennf@zeppelin.flights I think I'm morally required to back this, in repayment for the number of times I've ended online conversations with "You are very intelligent".

@futurebird I don't know what her ultimate goal should be, but she should definitely visit the beach of left foot shoes and later, the beach of right foot shoes. (I may have stolen this idea from an actual popular science book about ocean currents.)

@swachter Pyramids - Walk Like An Egyptian

@miodvallat@hostux.social @mattblaze@federate.social UFOs? Doesn't that stand for "underaged fornication offenses"?

@brnrd@bsd.network @That_One_Guy@mastodon.world Just a heads up that it isn't always a ring - mine wasn't. But mine was angry, purple, and quickly getting HUGE, along with a weird fever, so I got it checked out early. The CDC has (had?) a gallery showing a variety of rashes that it may look like. And mine was in there.

@tao I know it's probably effectively too late, but don't you think Taylor Swift should own her own voice, and have control over how it is used?

@fasterandworse@hci.social I put on my "(how much harm can this cause) * (how likely is this to act incorrectly)" glasses, and the bottom row is screaming red.

@davidgerard@circumstances.run @lostgen@det.social Thanks. Looks like the OP already blocked.

@futurebird You might like this: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Man_Who_Folded_Himself A friend read this as a teen, and recently got a hankering to re-read it. He lent it to me. (Note: There's some old 1970s gender stuff that is rather 1970s. Make sure to get the updated version and read the author's note at the end to make that better. I won't say anything more, lest I do spoilers. 🤐)

@bodluricon@mastodon.social @Nickiquote@mstdn.social I (USAian) have read previously of the vast fleet of differing words you UKers use to name what we call a "bun". Glad to see the spirit lives on.

@inthehands@hachyderm.io Tomorrow? I'm probably going to go with "never" on this one.

@swachter "Going Postal" - "The Letter"? https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=BQaUs5J2wdI

@goatrodeo@mstdn.social Just today? 😬

@ZachWeinersmith The second half is what tells you they don't actually believe the first. It's like a Christian proclaiming the immanent Rapture and investing in their 401k - their actions put the lie to their words.

@TracyTThomas@mastodon.beer I think you (re-) discovered fractals. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coastline_paradox

@annaleen @flaminghydra Fa-Plornt!!!

@TracyTThomas@mastodon.beer Perfect beer weather today, isn't it? I picked this up on the way home

@kristinHenry @knizer @CuriousMagpie If you want something more sit-down and unwind, nearby on Boylston there are some excellent choices. I can recommend Mita (Italian), Sweet Cheeks (bbq), and Eventide (seafood).

@MFennVT You are very smart.

@samlitzinger CBS? Yes. Remember, they're one of the "zombie" news organizations now.

@zeborah @swachter I think of the version by The Marvelettes as the "canonical" version, but that's a better song - it's got the word "post" in it!

@swachter More apt name, that's for sure. (I'm long tail of the Boomers, def. not GenX.)

@atrupar I feel like the universe owes you a spa day.

@cardamomaddict Oh, that looks interesting. Looking forward to reports on your experiments.

@gleick "... seems emboldened by ..." Remember when they said they couldn't use the word "lie" to describe Trump, because that would presume to know his internal mental state?

@futurebird@sauropods.win @RobotDiver@starlite.rodeo @KanaMauna@sauropods.win There are also different varieties of Democrats. There are some who are doing what they can to work within the system, and some are self-interested power grabbers who will sell us out in a second - Tulsi Gabbard and that guy from WV were both "Democrats". We all agree that stuff is bad. And we're all having times of despair. But people who go from there to shitting on those who are trying to use the tools we do have just get muted by me now.

@futurebird@sauropods.win I think I qualify as one of those liberals. I've done the "cut off from CBS, NYTimes, WaPo, ..." part, and am now looking for better sources. I miss the feeling of being informed, but I figure it's better, at least for the moment, to be ignorant than to be deceived.

@electrafish@social.electrafish.tech Oh yeah, that's the good stuff. 🙏

@tao I'm glad that you are thinking about the ethical implications. I agree that you are in no way trying to defraud anyone. But with so much of AI being based on non-consensual takings I think it would be great if you made it your personal standard to think more about consent, even if, as I agree with you, it's probably not mandatory. Admittedly, the odds of you getting consent from Swift are low, and you'd have to not post content based on her. It's a choice, without a clear answer.

@samlitzinger@journa.host It takes quite a bit of energy to pretend that they might do otherwise. I've decided to stop wasting it on going along with the pretense.

@RobotDiver@starlite.rodeo @futurebird@sauropods.win What's worse is the people who refuse to use the democrats as a pathway to fixing things. BTW, I've never heard anyone say "all we have to do is get the D's back in and it will all be okay". Admittedly I don't have a super-diverse set of people I discuss politics with, but I'm beginning to wonder if such people actually exist.

@davidgerard@circumstances.run @lostgen@det.social @gemmy Yup. Does Mastodon have a feature to mute all the replies to this account too, in addition to the account? (Using Tusky, if that matters.)

@markmccaughrean Ohhhhh! Something about it was bugging me, but I couldn't say what. "Dark side" was what I was missing.Thanks 👍!

@cwebber Lo-fi rules

@luc0x61 @tzimmer_history Plenty of fascists around Europe. Are you waiting to see about them?

@universalhub@mastodon.online Weird. They're already swarming the neighborhood. #Fenway

@rmd1023 @kristinHenry @knizer @CuriousMagpie Oh, good point! Always check the Red Socks schedule (available on their web site) before venturing near Fenway Park. MFA is far enough away, but as said, lower Boylston is not!

@kevinrothrock@infosec.exchange "Mad Dog Didn't Bite This Time, Still Frothing At The Mouth"

@cmthiede@social.vivaldi.net @newsguyusa@flipboard.social I saw some #TaylorFarms packaged salads at the grocery store. Yeah, right, I'm buying that.

@lindsey textpad

@bruceturner@toad.social QUEUE has always been my nominee. Curious to see what other say. (I occasionally did German wordle, where ZWERG is a valid guess, and I couldn't help noticing how bad that would be for English. ZWOLF might even be worse.)
