@davidrevoy doesn’t your wrist cramp up?

My carpal tunnel would not let me draw in a space that small 🥲

mariyadelano,
@mariyadelano@hachyderm.io avatar

@davidrevoy oooh if the seat on the right was empty that makes a lot more sense. I feel like I’d hit the other person in the face with my elbow otherwise 😂😂

“Gotta get that line just right!”

“One more swooping motion….”

BAM

“Oh my god I am so sorry I was just trying to fix the curve of this single eyelash”

mariyadelano,
@mariyadelano@hachyderm.io avatar

@davidrevoy gotta suffer for art, what else can I say 😂😂

On a serious note - you draw much more consistently than I do, do you have any tips for avoiding pain?

Because honestly I’d be drawing for hours every day if my carpal tunnel didn’t flare up so often 😖

Common types of “AI beats humans at X” studies

“We compared ChatGPT to a bunch of reddit trolls!”

“We measured the productivity of people who do stuff for $5 at tasks nobody ever does then generalise that to everything”

“We benchmarked the AI on tests in its training data”

@baldur @davidgerard or, the one I see in marketing:
“ChatGPT is the best writer I’ve ever hired!” said a bunch of people who hire their writers from content mills and pay them $50 per blog post 🤦‍♀️

I’ve been struggling to spend much time on Mastodon lately because my feed is >50% discussion of Bluesky

Seeing them makes me feel a terrible cocktail of:

  • FOMO for not having an invite
  • Confusion over why everyone cares so much all of a sudden
  • Fear that the wonderful community I’ve found here on Masto in the last 6 months will die because everyone will leave
  • Existential dread over the immense difficulty of managing a community-governed social media platform

It’s been tough 😖

Sorry y’all. I know some of you are replying to this thread already but I got so emotional that I started to cry

Can’t see the screen very well through tears so… I’ll be back when I calm down

@mariyadelano@hachyderm.io avatar

@zoomar i guess it always seems more active / fun when experiencing it exclusively through hearsay

mariyadelano,
@mariyadelano@hachyderm.io avatar

@GreenFire I don’t get why the conversation about Bluesky has been so active on here in particular. I see more discussions about it on Mastodon than on LinkedIn, Reddit, or Instagram 🤷‍♀️

mariyadelano,
@mariyadelano@hachyderm.io avatar

@tg9541 yeah, most of us don’t care about going viral on here. And that’s good. That’s exactly why this place has felt so real and human and… social

I’ve had more moments of social connection here than on any other website I’ve been using the past few months 🤷‍♀️

mariyadelano,
@mariyadelano@hachyderm.io avatar

@zoomar I had to look up who that was 🙈

mariyadelano,
@mariyadelano@hachyderm.io avatar

@zoomar once again I had to look that up 😂😂. Your examples are curing my FOMO very quickly, thank you

mariyadelano,
@mariyadelano@hachyderm.io avatar

@zoomar I’m cured. That is… the opposite of any Mastodon server trending pages that I’ve ever seen

mariyadelano,
@mariyadelano@hachyderm.io avatar

@tchambers that would be good. I’ve been worried seeing people give up on the technical complexity of building a more interoperable web.

mariyadelano,
@mariyadelano@hachyderm.io avatar

@jcrabapple I think I’ll filter for it too. It flooded too much of my feed and made it difficult to see other conversations

mariyadelano,
@mariyadelano@hachyderm.io avatar

@jon can we appreciate for a moment that BlueSky abbreviates to BS. Because that is wonderfully appropriate 😂😂

And yes, you’re right. I just get overwhelmed by how much clean up I need to do of my feed, so I don’t clean up the feed, which overwhelms me even more. It’s a vicious cycle!

I'm shocked but I really prefer the classic interface for Mastodon. It's simpler

mariyadelano,
@mariyadelano@hachyderm.io avatar

@seth I’ve not used Mastodon on desktop in 2 months, so simple interfaces for the win? 😅

Out of curiosity, I took a look at the aol.com home page for the first time in many, many years. 3/4 of the page seems devoted to ads; if it's still around in a decade or so I might have to take a gander again.

This is not how the World Wide Web was suppose to work.

mariyadelano,
@mariyadelano@hachyderm.io avatar

@machias the funny thing about sites that are covered with ads like that - they are not good for anyone!

  • Terrible for the user, since the website is unusable without Adblock

  • Terrible for the site itself, since people will leave and not come back after having a bad experience

  • Terrible for most people advertising on it, since with that much noise (and everyone getting annoyed by it), nobody is clicking on ads and buying these products

It’s literally just making everyone’s lives worse

In the long term, sometimes the very long term, open platforms usually win out over corporate ones. This isn't because of their inherent virtues but because corporate platforms have a habit of ceasing to exist.

@tomw “a habit of ceasing to exist” is quite a way to put it 😂
