What is wrong with people when they expect something like ChatGPT to render facts? But at the same time, they don't expect Dall-E to render a factual scene. Just because something renders text doesn't mean it is factual. Where does this wordcel bias come from?

I still think there are major and fundamental economic and social barriers to truly decentralized tech, but to the extent that we get decentralized anything it will be without blockchains.

If you are the password child, it's your responsibility to change your name.
It's easier than getting your parents to change their passwords.

Seeing Twitter friends joining Mastodon is like going to a smallish-sized research conference in your subfield of interest and seeing old friends walk through the side door during the first big talk of the morning.

@Are0h very this.
I moved from Perth Australia, to Cambridge UK.
I am not going to say Australia is a particularly high point for diversity, but the upper-middle class UK is a low point.
It wasn't til I moved to what my former landlord called "a bad part of town" that I heard anyone speaking anything other than English. It was such a relief to be around other immigrants -- especially ones not from my culture.

I will never understand why people are so averse to diversity.

I like seeing trans people speaking to each other with idioms I don't get, cute girls speaking a language I can't recognize, or gay dudes priming and posing in random pics.

Seeing shit that is not for me makes me feel like I'm part of a much bigger world that still has space for me to learn and grow.

That's a big place of comfort for me. The bottomless nature of the human experience means we all have space to be fully who we are.

That's pretty cool.

Hackyderm is run by a human trust, and while normally someone's personal project isn't what would want to us due to reliability concerns. The human running it is an expert that big enterprise turns to to ensure their reliability.
So it's feeling like it could be a good choice. 2/2
