you should try to ask the same question using xAI / Grok if possible. May also ask ChatGPT about Altman as well

forgive my naivety, how does such a community avoid promoting ageism?

I think many have also been wondering about version control of legislation/law documents for some time as well. But I never understand why it’s not realized yet.

Here are some options:

• crypt.ee: I tried this before, I don’t think it’s selfhostable but quite usable, and nice UI. Encryption available. Ghost folders if you want to. Multimedia available, not sure about storage
• joplin: you can use Nextcloud (or many other options like Dropbox) for sync and hence storage depends on your cloud solution. E2EE, has plugins, and simple enough to use.
• anytype.io and logseq: I’ve seen these mention in many places but I haven’t used either. But they seem to have very rich features, not sure about selfhosting though.

I was aware of this study when they presented it virtually (can’t remember where), and while I don’t have an issue with their approach and results, I’m more concerned about the implications of these numbers. The few percent that were exposed to extremist content may seen small. But scaling that up to population level, personally that is worrisome to me … The impact of the few very very bad apples can still catastrophic.

dead internet, here we go!

while I agree it has become more of a common knowledge that they’re unreliable, this can add on to the myriad of examples for corporations, big organizations and government to abstain from using them, or at least be informed about these various cases with their nuances to know how to integrate them.

Why? I think partly because many of these organizations are racing to adopt them, for cost-cutting purposes, to chase the hype, or too slow to regulate them, … and there are/could still be very good uses that justify it in the first place.

I don’t think it’s good enough to have a blanket conception to not trust them completely. I think we need multiple examples of the good, the bad and the questionable in different domains to inform the people in charge, the people using them, and the people who might be affected by their use.

Kinda like the recent event at DefCon trying to exploit LLMs, it’s not enough we have some intuition about their harms, the people at the event aim to demonstrate the extremes of such harms AFAIK. These efforts can help inform developers/researchers to mitigate them, as well as showing concretely to anyone trying to adopt them how harmful they could be.

Regulators also need these examples in specific domains so they may be informed on how to create policies on them, sometimes building or modifying already existing policies of such domains.

seriously, how bad must it be to change name to clean up their image? We all expect this industry is controversial.

The only recent thing I remember about Pornhub is the current blocking in certain states as protest to the age verification requirement. That seems like a plus in my book that they stand up for privacy and internet use. Changing the name seems like it might dilute their stance.

Except for signal, matrix is also decentralized. I understand what you meant tho. I think matrix still stores user data on servers, but they could be encrypted. Others who know please correct me.

did the people who quit get reasonable severance packages? If so, were they reasonable compared to if they had been laid off?

maybe even integration with uBlock if possible?
