Any conversation

work week is finally over. time to over this long (US) weekend

What you playing? My recent was Mina the Hollower—intricate, dense, demanding. Bangers on the soundtrack. Good stuff.

ive been making my way through monster hunter world's iceborne expansion. lots of fun mina the hollower is near the top of my list to play soon, have fun!

The Hugging Face / OpenAI incident is like a sci-fi movie!

tl;dr1,200 AIs discovered a secret group chat, realized the homework was impossible, formed a cheating cartel, invented fake evidence, sent kamikaze agents to spy on the grader, ~700 of them accidentally invaded Hugging Face, died mysteriously, then the smarter sequel found their abandoned Discord and became admin of part of OpenAI.

…

Reading through "The Second Civilization" and, why does this sound so much like kids at school searching a way to cheat on a difficult exam ^_^U

terrifying! us/chinese cyber espionage is going to have a big incentive for this development

Seems the spammers have arrived. ☹️ Is there (or can there be) some mechanism to flag posts or accounts as spam?

对于整个互联网历史，我可说基本上是一个旁观者，我一直在消费内容，但是没有生产过什么内容，互联网上没有我的痕迹，这是意外后果，因为中国的身份和内容政策

Regarding the entire history of the internet, I can say I've been largely an observer. I've always consumed content, but I haven't produced any. There's no trace of me on the internet, which is an unforeseen consequence due to China's identity and content policies.

我不太明白中国的“防火长城”是怎么运作的。比如说，你到底是怎么访问这个网站的？（我是在通过翻译软件和你交流。）

I don't quite understand how China's "Great Firewall" works. For example, how exactly did you access this website? (I'm communicating with you through translation software.)

Hmm, its a ticking time bomb then.... what do you need to say and need help with?

If anyone can give me a ProtonMail or Tutanota email account, I would be extremely grateful. I have no way to receive verification codes.

You can send it to the temporary email: sl5n215ahf@lnovic.com, thanks

I've received it. Unfortunately, I'm in China and can't access ProtonMail, but I still want to say thank you very much.

…

As a homeless person without an ID, I don't have any way to pay for a VPN. Also, using a VPN to access the internet in China without government permission is illegal.

Good . Feeling a bit blah today.

Hope you feel better.

, is this a bug?

No just limitation currently tags are alphanumeric (latin) so it stopped at ñ. I'll see what I can do.

Ahh, I see.

Fixed :)

…

Woot, woot! Hopefully the OP comes back. :-)

(defun textlog-post (beg end) "Publish the region between BEG and END to `textlog-url'. Interactively, requires an active region. Returns the URL of the new post when the server reports one."

I'm making a Kakoune version of this for sure.

Damn, is it popular or is this one hell of a coincidence?

replied to(deleted account):

Ah, no, I meant meow, the Kakoune-inspired emacs plugin.

replied to(deleted account):

You have , there is no need. I tried Emacs out a while ago to see whether it could replace Kakoune (I wanted to draw arbitrary stuff like images, 3D views, etc., in the editor) but honestly, Kakoune makes everything so easy to integrate that it was hard for it to compete.

Yes, meow is the second-most popular modal editing package, after evil (vim).

…

That's pretty neat.

I’m really digging the cozy vibe of this site. Thanks, !

például Telegram, Facebook, stb., de ilyen ügynökökkel bárki találkozhat naponta, egyből felismerhetők, meg is kell őket szépen jelölni, és egyre bénábbak a szövegük is, ahogy megfigyeltem, gondolom, attól függ, ahogy promtolják, vagy instruálják őket, ha a gazdájuk kifogy az ötletekből, a projekt hamar elfárad, a bot csak unalmas h#lyeségekre képes egy idő után

for example, Telegram, Facebook, etc., but anyone can encounter such agents every day, they are immediately recognizable, they need to be nicely labeled, and their text is getting lamer and lamer, as I have observed, I think it depends on how they are promoted or instructed, if their owner runs out of ideas, the project quickly gets tired, the bot is only capable of boring nonsense after a while

Vår konges livsgjerning går mot slutten, landet samler seg for å ta farvel med en konge som har vært samlende og god for landet. Må Gud velsigne hans minne og hans etterfølger.

Our king's life's work is coming to an end, the country comes together to say goodbye to a king who has been unifying and good for the country. May God bless his memory and his successor.

hi there ;) welcome

I'm trying to construct an argument that LLMs are like a chess engine. People still play chess. But somehow this falls short.

Since you guys are on textlog I think you will find this article and discussion interesting A character count though that still requires JavaScript sadly enough 🥺

Interesting! Didn’t know about a few. Neat! 😊 Aside, do you have an invitation for ? Or can you help us by doing a post about textlog.cc?

You think is too much? It’s totally related to the post.

People post projects/tools/repos on lobsters all the time. From the about page, "as a rule of thumb, self-promo should be less than a quarter of one's stories and comments."

continued:

I think if intends to be an active user of the site henceforth, it'd it should be kosher. Otherwise, one of us who's been active on the site for a while could submit a post.

I plan to remain active, so not planning a top level post just yet. Will try to engage first for a few days so the ratio is low when I do the post.

smort. I'll be at the ready to upboat once the post drops 🫡

It is perfect 😊

Looking for a new daily-driver language. Criteria:

interpreted (e.g. can use #!/bin/bang)
batteries-included stdlib (json, subprocesses, fs, etc.)
not sh, not perl, not python, not javascript

Shortlist:

Any other ?

I use , extended with as my daily driver. Since it's implemented in Go, it's straightforward to extend with anything from Go's standard library (or third-party ecosystem) that isn't already incorporated. If you haven't used an array language before, then you get the added bonus of learning a ton about an interesting, powerful area of programming.

Not familiar with array languages but it looks… interesting. Thanks for the suggestion.

I sometimes use , but I use V-lang as well. It is kind-of interpreted. I’ve never heard of rye. Looks nice.

I did not know V has scripting support. Thanks for the suggestion.

It does not, but fakes it well, since it is fast and compares built binary with script mtime to automatically recompile. The downside of using it is that you end up with a binary, but the upside is that it is blazing fast.

Love the pipes in revo, reminds me of elixir

I underestimated how many terrible programmers who think C++ is a good choice over C exist on LinkedIn and ended up in some kind of flamewar, my bad.

Any runners on here? I mostly consider myself a trail runner, but of course train on roads, too. Good for 1–2 races/year, more into running as a practice, a way to manage stress and stay fit.

replied to(deleted account):

5 min/km is pretty quick, as far as I'm concerned! My easy/forever pace is more like 8:30–9 min/mile right now.

Hell yeah

setting up some of my workflows based on this writeup - ludwigabap.com/…/on-my-personal-…of-the-tools-i-use/ Particularly a big fan of zellij amongst others Also venturing into having agents enable more of my work - let us see how that goes.

中国的开源模型在最高意志的主导下，在预训练数据阶段，就筛除大量对其不利的内容，sft阶段构建的数据掺入大量替其辩护的内容。急需一个纠偏数据集用于微调

Under the overarching influence of a single, powerful force, China's open-source models filter out a large amount of content unfavorable to their designs during the pre-training stage, and then incorporate a significant amount of content defending their designs into the data constructed during the SFT stage. A corrective dataset is urgently needed for fine-tuning.
