Sounds like a worst-of-both-worlds situation.

The image sure looks like AI.

I’m just not convinced there are only 2 r’s in strawberry.

Yes, this is the saddest thing about this, that people trust these bullshitting chatbots so much that they doubt their own knowledge.

I watched that movie not knowing anything about it. When they start taking about the “youngest person on Earth” In the first scene, I thought it was a comedy 🤣

The ceilings must be really low.

In his book Rationality, Steven Pinker says that the way we mentality categorize things is not by a strict definition, but with a number of properties that make things more it less like the category. So it’s like, if it has green vegetables, it’s more likely to be a salad, if it’s served hot is less likely, etc. This avoids issues like this where trying to strictly define things leads to absurd results. I think he even used salad as an example in the book.

i think they are great when they are able to provide variety in terms of gameplay, challenge etc, as opposed to just being different layouts. My first thought is roguelikes and roguelites - Some of my favorite games are Binding of Isaac and Spelunky, which do it really well, and I still play the original roguelikes like Angband sometimes.

Looks like your post didn’t make it to their server.

I wasn’t affected by this directly, but from what I saw it was all handled extremely well - lots of notice so users could choose new instances and mods could coordinate moving communities elsewhere. Makes me optimistic for the fediverse.

I had some ideas I jotted down but never really put anything together. Maybe someday…

I’m sorry but Afsluitdijk sounds like they named it by banging on a keyboard.

The term I’ve heard is Threadiverse (i.e. Fediverse with threaded discussions), but that was coined before Threads launched so it’s a little awkward now.

It’s not what it isn’t.

That’s just where he lives.
