academic malpractice complaint viable?

I’m curious about this one, legal repercussions against the perpetrator seem pretty clearly viable (it would seem to me that Science has a viable fraud case, and Williams for probably a few too). why wouldn’t anyone do that? is that not the done thing in academia?

the network effects of reputational damage are pretty oof though :|

this shit should be regulated into the dustbin of history. relatedly, the recent release of unredacted docs from the NYT vs OpenAI case showing the clear knowledge of theft and substitution… it’s all willingly done

I don’t know enough about Chinese state security apparatus to comment about that aspect but I’ve seen some mentions of how the state there is also heavily pushing prompts everywhere, and it’s apparently just as shit a failure as it is in the western sphere…so, could be fucked either way

network access control list, but I am now definitely going to start making references to salt circles when I handle the promptfans

it uses the fedi semantics, @user@example.com. but I have found some clients to be iffy on completion and addition of href (eg my mobile client doesn’t do it most times unless I hit a specific thing. the jank is a feature!)

this isn’t an episode of TNG and I’m not a cardassian interrogator, there definitely were two questions

Funny enough, I saw it was 18 minutes and tossed it over to Gemini to summarize.

“funny enough”? why?

“tossed it over to gemini”? again, why?

gap’s closer now

I was wondering why the name Kevin Roose sounded familiar and ah, right

yeah I was grimacing at the partlist, but I think I’d still do it

I haven’t meaningfully touched lego in like 15y and haven’t engaged with basically any of the starwars-y or latter-decades kits at all. but for this… it’d make a hell of a sweet display piece

I said “He doesn’t need a felony he doesn’t need a cell There’s gotta be a way to get him headed for some help.” He said “Programs exist but none of them work It’s either charge him with the crime or feed him back to the earth.” That’s the bleakest shit I ever heard

goddamn

you drifted in out of nowhere, made a completely zero-effort thing your first post with literally no useful contribution of your own, and now appear to be going “waaaaaaagh why don’t you like me” about the consequences

pro-tip: don’t

ayyy new aesop rock

this is going to be listened to immediately

and yet you posted it willingly

I wasn’t aware of the licensing terms - that immediately drops my opinion of it too. I was thinking about looking into it (soon.gif, due spoons) to see if I could make a run-your-own-nightshade deployable for people, but I guess that’s off the table now

as to effectiveness: as I’ve said elsewhere, the genie is out of the bottle. unless this shit gets (toothfully) regulated out of existence (and that might be impossible for a variety of reasons), I fear that it’s going to become a similar arms race as spam, and there will continue to be a tug-of-war for a while.

gutfeel, it strikes me that the (current) biggest hope is that the models themselves not only fail at providing but don’t really have a path to achieving that either, so it’s mostly a case of how long VCs can fund the hype. from previous cycles it looks like that spans 2~5y windows. at the point the hype funding runs out, this stuff will significantly lose traction even though it won’t disappear entirely just yet.

damn large amount of damage that’ll happen in

that’s encouraging to hear

a number other nix-users I’d spoken to before always seemed to do shit with the C++ etc as well but they always did that with everything so I couldn’t tell if it were choice or requirement

guess I’ll have to get some round tuits to spend

has nix managed to move their tooling off the old perl and C codebases as yet? I looked at it a long while back because the idea of nix interests me but I just didn’t have the spoons to deal with that at the time

(yes I’ve had this tab open until now (mostly because of said insufficient spoons for a few few weeks))
