Does master own a Sawzall?
Fuck it, repeating my joke from the earlier thread: Inviting the most pedantic nerds on Earth to critique your chatbot slop is a level of begging to be pwned that’s on par with claiming the female orgasm is a myth.
yes you need to read things to understand them
OK, here's your free opportunity to spend more time doing that. Bye now.
The stubsack is the weekly thread of miscellaneous, low-to-mid-effort posts on awful.systems.
She said, “You know what they say the modern version of Pascal’s Wager is? Sucking up to as many Transhumanists as possible, just in case one of them turns into God. Perhaps your motto should be ‘Treat every chatterbot kindly, it might turn out to be the deity’s uncle.’”
"Cursor YOLO deleted everything in my computer":
Hi everyone - as a previous context I’m an AI Program Manager at J&J and have been using Cursor for personal projects since March.
Yesterday I was migrating some of my back-end configuration from Express.js to Next.js and Cursor bugged hard after the migration - it tried to delete some old files, didn’t work at the first time and it decided to end up deleting everything on my computer, including itself. I had to use EaseUS to try to recover the data, but didn’t work very well also. Lucky I always have everything on my Google Drive and Github, but it still scared the hell out of me.
Now I’m allergic to YOLO mode and won’t try it anytime soon again. Does anyone had any issue similar than this or am I the first one to have everything deleted by AI?
The response:
Hi, this happens quite rarely but some users do report it occasionally.
My T-shirt is raising questions already answered, etc.

The New York Times treats him as an expert: "Eliezer Yudkowsky, a decision theorist and an author of a forthcoming book". He's an Internet rando who has yammered about decision theory, not an actual theorist! He wrote fanfic that claimed to teach rational thinking while getting high-school biology wrong. His attempt to propose a new decision theory was, last I checked, never published in a peer-reviewed journal, and in trying to check again I discovered that it's so obscure it was deleted from Wikipedia.

To recapitulate my sneer from an earlier thread, the New York Times respects actual decision theorists so little, it's like the whole academic discipline is trans people or something.

When the complaint gets to saying what Midjourney advertises in their "explore" feature, it features dead-eyed waifu Elsa and body-pillow-ready topless Ariel.
