suggestion for terminology: by analogy with 'daemon' and wordplay with the initialism LLM, using the term 'lilim' for large language models bonus: gets us away from using the term 'ai', accurately describes them as inhuman entities that can be dangerous if improperly handled

Hey, I started reading The Bell Jar as well! My copy has one extra word in the opening.
It was a queer, sultry summer, the summer they electrocuted the Rosenbergs, and I didn’t know what I was doing in New York.

Somewhere along the way, I took a lurch into the weeds of fringe beliefs. I selectively reject science, and then liken the pushback I get for this to the persecution of Jews in Nazi Germany. I actually say this, in writing, on a widely read forum, without a trace of shame or irony.

applying for jobs again
screenshot from an online job application form. the question reads "Can you describe specific ways you have integrated AI tools into your development workflow? Please include any custom setups, automations, or use cases beyond single prompt usage" (a red asterisk indicates that this is a required question).

an answer has been typed in the textbox below the question:

"there is a monster in the forest and it speaks with a thousand voices. it will answer any question you pose it, it will offer insight to any idea. it will help you, it will thank you, it will never bid you leave. it will even tell you of the darkest arts, if you know precisely how to ask.

it feels no joy and no sorrow, it knows no right and no wrong. it knows not truth from lie, though it speaks them all the same.
 
it offers its services freely to any passerby, and many will tell you they find great value in its conversation. “you simply must visit the monster—i always just ask the monster.”

there are those who know these forests well; they will tell you that freely offered doesn’t mean it has no price

for when the next traveler passes by, the monster speaks with a thousand and one voices. and when you dream you see the monster; the monster wears your face."

Being able to accept that something is fucked up *before* it happens to you personally, is basically the whole litmus test of not being an absolute asshole. The closer the fucked up thing needs to get to affecting you, personally, before you believe it, the bigger an asshole you are.

T-Rex: The Goose That Laid The Golden Eggs: a famous fairy tale! Dude famously gets a goose that lays gold eggs!

T-Rex: Or DOES he?!T-Rex: Because I'm a savvy customer, and I've been ripped off too many times before not to know the VERY important difference between "chocolate filling" and "chocolatEY filling."
T-Rex: The first is chocolate, and the second is cheap artificial crap that's just there to fool you!Utahraptor: My God. The goose always laid goldEN eggs, not gold eggs!
T-Rex: EGG-sactly.

T-Rex: They weren't gold! Plus, folks'll be like "oh, why'd you paint this otherwise normal goose egg to make it golden? I'm making an omelette and so I only care about the egg's contents, so I won't pay extra for this." They're worth one eggsworth, and that is IT!Off panel: So dude selling her eggs as if they're solid gold is the TRUE villain of the story!
T-Rex: ...Though he kills the goose out of greed at the end of it, so I guess he always was.
Off panel: Still!
T-Rex: Still!!

Theatre people, is the correct response to “Evac order lifted”: “Thank you, evac.” “Thank you, order.” “Thank you, evac order.” “Thank you, lifted.” Or something else? I assume there is a rule for which is the key part to repeat.
