I'm Phil, sysadmin, wannabe Lisper, ex-marketing writer/ consultant, and jack of all trades.

I can do a little bit of everything, but I'm really an expert only in the above topics.

Always happy to have an honest conversation about nearly anything.

It's good to make friends.

We have satellites that can take a clear picture of a license plate from space. We're not using them to see what's happening on the ground in Gaza?

(I know the answer. Just wondering out loud.)

phil,

@angiebaby We aren't. Someone is.

If the public knew, riots would have been well underway, and carpenters would have loads of work, I'd think.

Honestly this feels like a small taste of the Holocaust. The world just stands by while genocide is ongoing.

If you listen to F1 on your phone cranked to max in public places (e.g. airports) you are a fucking war criminal and you are going to Hell for ten billion years when you die.

phil,

@Viss @pluralistic
Right, but using one at an airport... I don't know that it's worth the trouble.

AI is gambling for results with other people's data.

phil,

@promovicz Accurate as all hell. But it's also giving in to laziness and complacency. How can one know that the information an LLM spits out is any good?

Users need to verify the information. Or... gamble that their results will be good enough.

I would argue that using LLM's is most often unnecessary overhead compared to just buckling down and getting the job done.

phil,

@promovicz I was going to reply to your reply...

"Unless you trust LLMs/ AI 100%, you are creating big overhead by not doing the job you're trying to automate."

As least, that's what I'm thinking.

Or "automating a task requires that you understand the task much more than if you're just doing it."

Something along these lines. I bet I could come up with something catchy given enough time.

phil,

@CynAq @actuallyautistic I feel that a lot. There is also a big disconnect with the way NT's see other people.

The idea being, most NT's don't seem to have this instinctual recognition that they're talking to another person, who is conscious and experiences life with the same set of senses that they have.

It's fairly apparent in media - there is very little exploration of the mind, and a lot of surface-level emotion.

The importance and prioritization, as you say, are all out of whack with most people. There are important things (such as improvements to quality of life) that get pushed to the wayside for the sake of looks and appearances, the fear of being judged.

E.g. getting a pair of super comfy clothes, vs. clothes that other people will not complain about.

If I retrospect a little bit, a lot of my behavior has been very much shaped by trying to fit into an NT world. Not so much in the way of trying to fit an image of who/ what I /should/ be, but moreso in the way of avoiding behaviors and appearances that I knew would be criticised or otherwise lead to a bad reaction from the people around me.

Frankly, it's painful.

All I want for the future is for people to speak their mind directly, bluntly, without these social games and pussyfooting around.
