I would love to understand why people use AI for wikipedia. Like they want a page to exist but don't want the effort of doing it? I just cannot comprehend. If I want to create something, I do it. And if i don't, i take that to mean that i don't really want it which is ok.
ok this breakdown of AI writing indicators is incredible. Huge shout-out to the Wikipedia community for this

I was asked to guest lecture for an undergrad software engineering class to teach about software testing. Which is an interesting challenge. How do I condense a decade of experience into just 2 weeks of lecture so as to impart onto all the young people how and why we should test

Watching a student repeatedly probe chatgpt to write for him and then copy the text into an AI detector and seeing it all shows as AI. he's spent more time talking to chatgpt than it would take to just write it himself

I'm begging CS students to stop treating every class project as an opportunity to build a startup. you can just make a project for class and that be it. no it doesn't need to be the next unicorn

I don't understand how you can fully endorse someone for president and not know the basics of their policies.
We need to unify behind certain people. Just curious as to what your main issue is with Newsom?

X rights are human rights is such a useless slogan. people who support human rights already support X rights.
and then people on the other side, they think that X are just trying to get more rights than them

this was honestly one of the hardest parts for me growing up. i assumed if we had proof of something, that people would obviously just implement that. but instead we have tons of evidence but peoples pride and ego are more important than facts

maybe this is just my observation bias, but i feel like most people accept the whole nazi bar analogy about twitter. but some reason they don't apply that logic anywhere else.
i asked someone how they can play rust given how racist the community is and he just said he tunes it out. sir what?

you know how well after getting out of school, you still have nightmares about like missing an exam or something. well i decided that instead of just letting that be a nightmare, i wanted that to possibly actually happen.
so good news, i'm going back to college

i don't understand why cishet men so desperately want to be oppressed.
i told a cishet dude that he was on a queer app (Lex) and he can use literally every other app on the planet. he told me i was persecuting and discriminating against him. cry me a river

I've always so curious about people who write LGBTQIA but in different orders or leaving letters out. like why are you writing LGBTQA or LGBTI? what's the reason? it always feels suspect to me

this is why we need to be hyper vigilant when we see posts that are trying to divide the left. who benefits from the left fighting itself instead of fighting fascism?
Remember this next time a flood of “support” or “outrage” shows up in your feed. It may not even be real.

Due to all the claims that em dashes — these guys — are a sign that something is written with AI — I have now decided — whilst eating dinner — to use them excessively — and yes I will use them — incorrectly

when you see posts like this, you have to think, who benefits from this? a post trying to cause liberal and leftist fighting, who benefits from that?
Apparently, a growing number of radical leftists are returning to Twitter due to their distaste of Bluesky supposedly catering more to liberals than them. They're free to leave this platform if they wish.
