I haven’t seen this question asked.
how can the results be trusted that they were actually interacting with real humans?
what’s the percentage of bot-to-bot contamination?
this study looks more like a hacky farce that is only meant to bring attention to our manipulation and less like actual science.
any professional that puts their name on this steaming pile should be ashamed of themselves.
cruelty is a tool by which you enforce your will over a large population.
citizens not behaving? remove gun laws that put children at risk.
citizens not worshipping you? take away their ability to provide for their families.
citizens rebellious against you? violently capture them in public and send them to a dark hole never to be seen from again.
funny thing about cruelty is, if you must be cruel be decisive and quick. let no more suffering happen than what is needed. people who live in unnecessarily cruel environments tend to stop being afraid after awhile…and then the riots start.
so we create a walled garden of our own.
can’t complain if the public can’t view it.
someone takes screenshots of the problematic content and shares it? well they’re in trouble for posting/sharing problematic content.
hold up…
they gonna start tattooing the 5G chips in our brains now? did they give up trying to inject them with vaccines? are vaccines safe now?
nvm, they cause autism.
my wife and I had been married for 2 years. been together for close to 10.
not once did we EVER say “Adirondack Chair”. Just never came up in conversation. we were broke as fuck and couldn’t afford something as superfluous as one of those.
One day, were driving down the road home and see one on the side of he road.
what’s that?
looks like an Adirondack Chair
Adirondack Chair? For free?
yeah, it looks broken though.
we get home go inside. I sit down to veg on my phone on the sofa. what does Amazon put in my “things you like” feed? mother fuckin Adirondack Chairs. Google news feeds? Adirondack Chairs on sale.
My wife had YouTube videos that were reviewing Adirondack Chairs.
this was ten years ago. Imagine what they’re doing now…
me to my phone right now
second this.
also look into HR services. they handle most HR things plus many have products that do the HR stuff like time tracking, payroll, benefits, state/country compliance/regulatory requirements, etc.
it can be costly but the cost is higher when you factor in your time away from running your business and increased legal risk from breaking employment laws.
once you get large enough you can hire a director of HR and reduce you reliance on your vendor.
y’all been powering down your systems?
had my servers up for like a decade or more…
it solidified my belief that humans are greedy self-serving goblins that would doom the human race just to feel important or powerful.
there are exceptions to the rule, but the rule still stands.
Imagine an entire forensics department in the future identifying corpses by the ads on the teeth.
🤮
currently have a 3d printed crown in my mouth. they patched the original broken tooth as best they could. scanned my mouth and the tooth. and while they were root canaling my tooth was printing. after they were done, my crown was installed and I went about my day with some minor soreness for about a week.
I would imagine printed dentures to be similar.
don’t know what’s more pathetic. the fact that you took the time to stalk me or that you tried to discourage me from making fun of a washed up drug addict.
huh, somebody better tell this to every major fortune 500 company.
I’ve had local places refuse to take my order over the phone.
“use our app or come in”
yeah, they don’t last long. I can imagine their last thoughts are, “why won’t anyone eat here?”
I self host a lot of software. something like 20 different apps.
the amount of self hosted open source software that uses CDNs for libraries is too damn high.
it became such a problem for me that I created my own locally managed CDN and use rewrite rules on any of my apps to replace remote packages with local ones.
I’ve even cloned entire repos, replaced the references with local ones.
IMO, if your software is “self hosted” it should be a fully functioning service that will run without the internet. your app is broke shit if it doesn’t work when the internet goes down and is meaningless to self host at that point.
my point, any app you use online can, in theory, be done offline. you just need the skill, knowledge, and drive to make it that way.
Paige no!
it’s called a loupe.
holy shit…am I at the point in life where I’m old enough to understand why we call it “dialing” a number or a “dial tone”?
microfilm is a real thing btw.
it was used for army intel for decades.
Classic Tim Apple.
