This has to be the most ridiculous shit I’ve ever seen. Many of the people banned were literally some of the nicest anons on Twitter. Any system that just automatically bans if there’s enough reports without actually checking the content is a broken moderation system.

Also I’d have to imagine that kids social development gets quite stunted. In fact this was one of the big things noticed when schools went online because of COVID. The social development of especially younger children was set back quite a bit.

I’m curious about this does it actually work? I’ve both known people who were homeschooled success stories and people who didn’t learn a damn thing and were basically illiterate/incapable of basic math because of homeschooling.

I’m seeing normal people freaking out about TPOT live on my skyline right now and it’s making me realize that Twitter was so insular that there really were “parts” and they didn’t interact with each other. This craziness is different and I’m all here for it.

Hey! Iirc we were giving you career advice back then. We kind of lost touch but I hope it all worked out for you. Feel free to reach out again if you ever want to talk though!

Yeah some of us “poasters” are too used to having long shitposting sessions in DMs but since those don’t exist here we’ve just been doing it in public… On one hand, it’s contributing to the vibes… on the other hand…

The worst part of building a new ML pipeline is the very first training runs on a few mini-batches. Crossing my fingers, waiting anxiously for a few seconds hoping that the loss goes down. Then waiting again for a few minutes to visualize the overfitted results. It gets so much easier after that.

Okay the logo is straight 🔥 though and I’m not just saying that because I’m partial to the astronaut helmet vibes.

Indeed. And I’ve had the pleasure of working with some of the best. Truly mind blowing stuff :)

Hinges on Doomed LiDAR @doomed-lidar.dev · 14/04/2023

Yeah things are definitely more chronological here. There’s no algorithm to necro old posts and “what’s hot” also seems to be quite chronically biased (not necessarily a bad thing btw, just pointing it out).

I’m unironically using this pickup line on the next girl I meet. Will report back the results 🫡

Hinges on Doomed LiDAR @doomed-lidar.dev · 13/04/2023

So I just spent like an hour writing wrapper classes to move data between dicts and python data classes so I could use someone else’s ML target generation code and at this point I think it might have been faster to just write my own target gen code 🤦‍♀️ Aren’t all python objects dictionaries anyway?

Hinges on Doomed LiDAR @doomed-lidar.dev · 12/04/2023

So the posts and content themselves aren’t transmitted by the protocol? Or are they?

Why would you ever doubt @birb.bsky.social? she’s the real deal lol.

Hinges on Doomed LiDAR @doomed-lidar.dev · 12/04/2023

This sounds really good in theory (I could host my own email server) but in practice no one does that and it’s all centralized anyway… I wonder if the devs of @bsky.app have thought about how they’re going to tackle this…

110

Hinges on Doomed LiDAR @doomed-lidar.dev · 12/04/2023

Okay I’m not a web developer so forgive the stupid question. I get that it’s an open protocol but some server still has to implement it right? Like gmail and yahoo both implement email. So the servers just host the data & implement the protocol, but because it’s open all messages go to everyone?

A contrarian opinion from me: I doubt a large news org like NPR will just make an account and start posting overnight. If you reach out to them now you have a chance to start the ball rolling (and perhaps have them weigh in on exactly what kinds moderation tools they want).

Yeah no for real. Having all the interactions in public and not being limited to small circles of 72 people or whatever is amazing. Really adds to the ✨vibes✨ right now. The only concern I have is that it won’t last as the platform grows 🤞

Hinges on Doomed LiDAR @doomed-lidar.dev · 12/04/2023

Yeah I’ve heard lots of people shit on ruby & rails but tbh I love how opinionated it is. Once you understand how it works it’s so much easier to make web apps using rails (imo). Seriously plug and play in a way that the numerous JS frameworks can never be.

I'm Max I fell in love with ML bcus the math of neural nets is really fucking cool. currently working on data pruning at for.ai. information is the defining feature of the information age and it increasingly looks like LLMs might be the interface btwn ppl and info, so likely to stick here for a bit!

I'm also a huge aviation and spaceflight enthusiast and I will happily nerd out about planes with anyone. Here's a picture I took of the SR-71 Blackbird at the Udvar Hazy center in DC that is currently my banner image.

I'm HODL, an ML researcher who works on self-driving cars. I'm really passionate about using technology to make our world a nicer place to live. Originally I came to shitpost about ML but recently I've been enjoying more candid conversations about ML systems and how they're going to impact our lives

New people means it's a good time for intros. New or old, intro yourself in this thread & let's make some new mutuals! Intro threads should be the new number threads. I'll start & tag some folks to go next.

Oh boy. This will either go very well or very poorly. Fellow tech enthusiasts, please be on your best behavior. Let’s try to make a good first impression and keep the ✨vibes✨ wholesome.

I want to have an ai agent that I can send it things I find interesting, and it will 1) crawl related items for me, 2) monitor the content every now and then for any new updates, and 3) put all of them in a vector database for searching

I think a lot of it has to do with the freshness of not having little GCs. It’s like a fragmented part of tpot just got back together and now we all have to interact in public. Kinda neat actually.

My "what's hot" tab is a mix of techbro shitposting and people's wives/families... It's weirdly wholesome?

Could you sub-post (sub tweet? idk how this works) me any harder? Die in a fire Ruth. I uninstalled my dark mode extension because it breaks a lot of sites and dark mode is a feature everywhere now. Also I wish this explained all my mental health problems :(

Hinges on Doomed LiDAR @doomed-lidar.dev · 11/04/2023

Okay so idk how to tag the developers but not having a dark mode on the web-app is both searing my eyeballs and ruining my desire to continue browsing or posting. Yes I know the iOS app has a dark mode, but typing on phone keyboards is inferior and you can't convince me otherwise.
