"I have a decent fluency in LLMs, and they have utility, but the absurd degree of over-hype, the way they're being forced on everyone, and the insistence on ignoring the many valid critiques about them make it very difficult to focus on legitimate uses where they might add value."

Now would be a great time for Bluesky to create a sister company in the EU somewhere that just uses the same network, all the same open source code, and has a “moth” for their logo.

So if I’m understanding today correctly, the world’s richest person Elon Musk, whom no one elected, is taking over federal payment systems and employee data while the federal employees who investigate and prosecute public corruption are being fired en masse.

NOPE, we are not going to make UHC restricting ABA "therapy" a scandal. Autistic adults who survived it as children describe it as torture. It should be illegal and I don't give a fuck if they're only doing it to save money, it's an unambiguous good to reduce the hours we torture autistic kids.
NEW: After reviewing leaked documents, we have found UnitedHealth is strategically limiting access to a treatment for thousands of children with autism across the country in order to cut costs.
Advocates say the company’s strategy may be illegal.

I just used this against a troll and his entire following and it was extremely satisfying. 10/10, will fire laser again.
The AT Orbital Laser is operational!
Use it to block/mute a user along with all their followers, or add them to a moderation list.
The app supports login via OAuth (simplest for most people) and app passwords.
It's fully client-side so your data remains private.
