I have a goal for y’all this coming year that I wish I had before my brother died: Take videos of the people you love. Silly ones, serious ones, candid ones, short ones.
You’ll be very happy you have these little snippets if you ever have to live without them ❤️

They used to say there was no such thing as gay kids. That it was a choice that could be beaten or tortured out of them through conversion therapy

Please tell your kids, every damn day if necessary, that chatGPT is not a goddamn search engine and you shouldn’t believe a word it says. Tell the adults too, but it’s especially imperative to inoculate kids against this

I don't know who needs to know this, but Pro Publica has an online thing that will format a letter to your US health insurance company to demand the records behind a claim denial. (which the insurance is then legally required to provide in most cases)

This is lovely and true but it's wild how many posts here are now "wow! I had no idea a social network could help me socialise digitally". We are beaten dogs, barely used to being treated with dignity online
The novelty of finding interesting people on here you don’t know through mutuals and feeds is something I haven’t had the pleasure of doing on twitter in quite some time. Enjoying this!

I don’t think it can be emphasized enough that large language models were never intended to do math or know facts; literally all they do is attempt to sound like the text they’re given, which may or may not include math or facts. They don’t do logic or fact checking — they’re just not built for that
Unfortunately, it repeatedly offers incorrect answers for straightforward math questions. 🧪
