The company has also warned Microsoft that if its "move fast and break things" ideology impacts the foundation of privacy-preserving apps like Signal, the app may drop support for Windows altogether in the future.

Ooo-hoo-hoo! Now that's spicy. I like it.

Probably worth mentioning here that this upgrade removed my 2FA, so everybody may want to check and reapply theirs. The 2FA support appears to be less awful this time, at least.

Edited headline stating accusation as if it were fact, linking to a tabloid instead of actual journalism, and copying over ambiguous language ("shells") instead of using more accurate terms ("seashells" <- a rather important distinction!!) to boot.

Think what you will of what Comey posted, this post & article are incredibly sensationalized.

Don't feed the troll, folks.

And that’s making them larger and “think."

Isn't that the two big strings to the bow of LLM development these days? If those don't work, how isn't it the case that hallucinations "are here to stay"?

Sure, it might theoretically happen that some new trick is devised that fixes the issue, and I'm sure that will happen eventually, but there's no promise of it being anytime even remotely soon.

Ah, drat! Usually I'm the one reminding people of Hanlon. Hoist by my own petard!

Yes, and? The money Gates makes from capital he owns comes from somewhere, and I firmly believe that it comes disproportionately from the poor, as that is how America tends to work. So for all he may or may not donate, that money is circulating right back to him. It's like if a slumlord "donated" $200 to you right before rent was due. You might find it preferential to not getting a de facto $200 discount on rent that month, but he's still a slumlord and nothing about the "donation" makes him ethical.

As for being better than Musk, I really don't care. "Better than a Nazi" is not a defense.

"You're all cowards! How dare you not immediately jump up and recklessly risk the lives of yourself and everyone around you while I sit back and watch?"

Trump isn’t really leading this autocratic coup. He’s a tool of the people who backed and made up the Heritage Foundation and the like.

I never liked this kind of thinking. I heard the same crap from my parents when Biden was in office, and it sounds just as conspiratorial now as it did then.

Occam's Razor: Trump and his cronies are just stupid fascist douchebags and this is a useful way to get power that is straight out of a typical fascist playbook. The idea that there's some secret group "handling" him is a movie plot, not reality.

Yeah, I've seen this trick before. And I have a feeling he'll be "earning" many billions in the same time period; how much I don't know, but I'm cynical enough that I wouldn't be surprised if the answer was "more than he donates."

You're just as dishonest as the last one.

Jesus Christ. I said what I said in the worry that you were suggesting fallacies were clear verdicts, and responded in order to defuse that possibility for both yourself (if it was indeed there) and, crucially, for anyone else reading. I wasn't trying to annihilate your character.

But I don't think anything I can do here anymore is worth doing, now. If this is what I get for trying to encourage sympathetic behavior, I'm just not going to participate at all.

This is incredibly hurtful. Goodbye.
