Midweek Discussions - single or multiple POV
  • I’m the same way! I thought most people preferred the multiple POV style but i completely agree with you.

    In addition to having to adjust to a new POV, I absolutely hate that when you finally find yourself invested in a certain POV, the author switches POVs again.

  • Elon Musk threatens to ban Apple devices from his companies over OpenAI partnership
  • Yep, this seems like the exact kind of thing companies would enforce with MDM.

    I know one of my previous companies would enforce certain settings were changed if you wanted to install the MDM profile on a BYOD phone (like minimum 8 digit PIN), so requiring you to opt out of OpenAI Siri integration seems like a policy MDMs would offer.

    (Though I would never install a company’s MDM profile on my personal phone lol - if they want me to be accessible and have work apps, they can provide a separate work phone)

  • Typos in code generation now?
  • ChatGPT has been doing this thing where I’ll ask it to do A, B, C in sequential, iterative prompts, but when it does C, it removes the lines it added for B. Then when you tell it that it removed B and needs to add it back in, it undoes C while saying it’s doing A, B, C. So frustrating.

  • Biden Says Trump Will Not Accept 2024 Result: ‘I Promise You He Won’t’
  • I think you’re underestimating how much people dislike Biden right now. There are people who don’t care or understand how bad Trump will be a second time around and won’t vote for Biden. I fear democrats are getting complacent again just like they did when it was Hillary vs Trump, and the results will be similar. I hope I’m wrong. (Not that I’m a supporter of Biden or the current Democrats, but this is the shit system we have and when the only alternative is Trump… yeah)

  • Stop Using Your Face or Thumb to Unlock Your Phone
  • Just to clarify for anyone else who was confused by this and didn’t understand what was meant by “squeeze”:

    Just tapping volume up and the power button just takes a screenshot. (Which is why I was confused)

    Instead, hold the volume up and power button until the power off screen shows up. Even if you cancel the shutdown, the iPhone will require a passcode to unlock.

  • it seems exmuslims are not allowed on this site
  • No one is supporting religious states, they’re protesting against genocide and the killing of fucking children. A 5 year old born in Palestine to a Muslim family didn’t get to choose the fact that they were born to a Muslim family in Palestine. Just cause you have an anti-Islamic hard-on doesn’t mean people should support genocide, you racist shitbag.

    And I’m an ex-Muslim, people like you make us all look bad. You’ve just given up one crazed religious zeal for another.

  • Somebody managed to coax the Gab AI chatbot to reveal its prompt
  • Right and I don’t think there’s anything wrong with not being neutral in that case. The original commenter said it’s “neutral corpo-speak” which I disagree with. Corporations would be all wishy washy or intentionally vague as you mentioned.

  • Somebody managed to coax the Gab AI chatbot to reveal its prompt
  • I don’t think of “politically neutral” and objective as synonymous. I think of politically neutral as attempting to appease or not piss of any sides. Being objective will often piss off one side (and we all know which side that is).

  • Somebody managed to coax the Gab AI chatbot to reveal its prompt
  • ChatGPT doesn’t actually give you a neutral answer lol. It flat out tells you climate change is real.

    Edit: Just to be clear since it seems people are misunderstanding: I agree with ChatGPT. I don’t see objectivity and being neutral as being synonymous. And not being neutral in this case imo is a good thing. You shouldn’t be neutral if a side is clearly stupid and (as another user put it) is the enemy of objective data.

  • Experience with board and training?
  • My gf is a trainer who does board and trains and it’s quite effective but only if everyone at home with the dog follows instructions and the rules suggested for the dog.

    A dog will be great with us but will regress very quickly if the family doesn’t stick to the structure provided. And the new structure and rules are especially important once the dog is back home because when they go back home, they think they can go back to their old behaviors.

    And finally, if it’s a purely positive training, then it absolutely will not work for cases like this.

    A lot of purely positive are against “balance” training where we use tools like eCollars and prong collars and will correct the dog. They claim it’s abusive and conflate eCollars with shock collars (two very different things and you absolutely should be against shock collars). But on the flip side, they’re okay with putting down dogs like this.

    I could go on forever, but you really want a balanced trainer who is willing to use tools, but not one of those super macho trainers who borderline abuse dogs.

    eCollars, prong collars, kennel training and proper balanced training save dog (and possibly human) lives.

    Around 4 years ago we got a “problem” dog that’s worse than yours from a shelter and he’s been fine with the tools and the structure we put in place and he’s living a great life.

    So tldr: find the right trainer, follow the rules and you should be fine. But if you slip up with the structure and get loose with the rules, the dog can start regressing.
