Cursory glance at a reddit search:

• Former /r/SRSSucks and /r/tumblrinaction janny 10 years ago

• Seethemaxxer

• Roidmaxxer

• Laurelai enemy

• Tried to make peepee bigger with steroids

I feel deep personal shame for even remembering ten year old reddit drama.

Background: Dalle2 "improved" the diversity of their prompts by silently adding diversity keywords

tldr: it's the diversity stuff. Switch "cowboy" to "cowgirl", which would disable the diversity stuff because it's now explicitly asking for a 'girl', and OP's prompt works perfectly.

And turns out that, like here, if we mess around with trying to trigger or disable the diversity stuff, we can get out fine samples; the trigger word appears to be... 'basketball'! If 'basketball' is in the prompt and no identity-related keywords like 'black' are, then the full diversity filter will be applied and will destroy the results. I have no idea why 'basketball' would be a key term here, but perhaps basketball's just so strongly associated with African-Americans that it got included somehow, such as a CLIP embedding distance?

Cloudflare CEO Matthew Prince stated an imminent threat to human life was why he revoked our service.

He elaborates in his post, and claims violent rhetoric had ramped up.

This seems to be based off one of two things:

1. A post made on 4chan's /pol/ with a picture taken outside an apartment in Ireland which references the forum.

2. A series of posts made by one user, @Washizu Iwao (formerly @Serotonin).

This means that a community with 16,000 daily sign-ins is being punished for the behavior of a single user, or a person not even on our website.

The post by @Washizu Iwao was posted at 9:42pm EU time. It was reported seven times. After 32 minutes it was deleted by @Ride, one of our admins. The user was also banned.

Hello social medias, this is a heavy post so please keep scrolling if needed.

I experienced sexual, physical, emotional, verbal, financial, and technological abuse from my biological siblings, mostly Sam Altman and some from Jack Altman.

I feel strongly that others have also been abused by these perpetrators. I'm seeking people to join me in pursuing legal justice, safety for others in the future, and group healing. Please message me with any information, you can remain however anonymous you feel safe.

Sam and Jack,

I know you remember my Torah portion was about Moses forgiving his brothers.

“Forgive them father for they know not what they've done”

Sexual, physical, emotional, verbal, financial, and technological abuse. Never forgotten

Hurt people cause more hurt, and forms of abuse go together. I have endured physical, sexual, verbal, emotional, financial, and technological abuse at the hands of a human I once called my brother. I know he can hear our dad in his head reminding him that “love wins”

I'm not four years old with a 13 year old “brother” climbing into my bed non-consensually anymore.

(You're welcome for helping you figure out your sexuality.)

I've finally accepted that you've always been and always will be more scared of me than I've been of you.

Must be strange to stalk your younger sibling's social media after she went no contact from your abuse.

Must be stranger to see her kitty and butthole that you touched non-consensually, now posted publicly.

Thank you for the love and for calling I spade a spade. I experienced every single form of abuse with him - sexual, physical, verbal, psychology, pharmacological (forced Zoloft, also later told I'd receive money only if I went back on it), and technological (shadowbanning)

Already flagged to death on Hacker News but getting some traction on Twitter:

This is Sam Altman's sister. Her tweets about sexual, physical, emotional, etc. abuse are incredibly hard to read. Seems that no one in the media is that interested in covering this story because they're afraid of losing access to OpenAI if they write something critical of Sam.👇

Thank you for reading and for sharing 🙏🏼❤️

REQUESTING SEETHE FROM BLIND ABOUT THE MATTER IF PRESENT

Orange website does what it does best

: In case it's not clear what's happening here (and from the comments it doesn't seem like it is), someone (not Meta) leaked the models and had the brilliant idea of advertising the magnet link through a GitHub pull request. The part about saving bandwidth is a joke. Meta employees may have not noticed or are still figuring out how to react, so the PR is still up.

(Disclaimer: I work at Meta, but have no relationship with the team that owns the models and have no internal information on this)

: It's not even clear someone has leaked the models. A random person has put a download link on a PR, it could be anything.

: >Meta employees may have not noticed or are still figuring out how to react Given that the cat is out of the bag, if I were them, I would say that it is now publicly downloadable under the terms listed in the form. It is great PR, which if this was unintentional, is a positive outcome out of a bad situation.

: Here is the magnet link for posterity: magnet:?xt=urn:btih:ZXXDAUWYLRUXXBHUYEMS6Q5CE5WA3LVA&dn=LLaMA

: Thanks not working for me... Not that I could run it if I downloaded it.

Based r-slur makes a PR about it on github to "save bandwidth"

: lgtm *approves PR*

: Good catch! This will save millions in bandwidth costs.

After having my abilities been questioned by @iStillMissEd , i decided to create a little test to separate the chads from the chaff.

Here's a small snippet of c++ code:

bool function1(int8_t a, int8_t b)

{

int8_t aneg=-a;

int8_t bneg=-b;

return((a<b)==(aneg>bneg));

}

Describe when and why this function returns true. Best answer gets 250DC. No answer and you will be known as a javargin. !codecels

Jan 20 (Reuters) - Google's parent Alphabet Inc (GOOGL.O) is eliminating about 12,000 jobs, or 6% of its workforce, the company said Friday, in the latest cuts to shake the technology sector.

Sundar Pichai, Alphabet's CEO, said in a staff memo shared with Reuters that the company had rapidly expanded headcount in recent years "for a different economic reality than the one we face today."

"I take full responsibility for the decisions that led us here," he said.

The cuts come days after rival Microsoft Corp (MSFT.O) said it would lay off 10,000 workers.

Alphabet's job losses affect teams across the company including recruiting and some corporate functions, as well as some engineering and products teams.

The layoffs are global and impact U.S. staff immediately.

Alphabet has already emailed affected employees, the memo said, while the process will take longer in other countries due to local employment laws and practices.

The news comes during a period of economic uncertainty as well as technological promise, in which Google and Microsoft have been investing in a burgeoning area of software known as generative artificial intelligence.

"I am confident about the huge opportunity in front of us thanks to the strength of our mission, the value of our products and services, and our early investments in AI," Pichai said in the note.

Reuters was first to report the news.

The More Tab of Xitter (actual whining):

so yesterday I restored "simps" and "simps for" but made them only count post votes

so i need help, how do I make them run faster or what indexes do I make, i didnt actually read the explain analyze outputs I posted here cuz im too lazy and need to take a shower rn so the answer might be pretty obvious (correct answer gets 50k marseybuckerinos and a code contributer badge)

Hello! Many of you are pathetic losers who do things like program stuff or whatever. We have the White Hat and Code Contributor badge, but nothing really to show who the Best of the Best are. Like me. And that's no good, people should be recognized for going above and beyond.

And so we are introducing the Smartest Fish Award. Description: Awarded for outstanding achievement in the field of QA, signed by Aevann Himself. The highest honor that can be bestowed upon a codecel.

Fix something major, get badge. Simple. There are no recent feats warranting this, and we're not going back too far retroactively. So if you want it, you'll need to do something new.

You can start by fixing iOS push notifs. Which we have been BEGGING YOU TO DO FOR MONTHS.

https://rdrama.net/post/174343/25k-marseybux-reward-ios-code-required - see top comment chain. The PWA is now a proper app again, but it doesn't show in the apps list and notifs don't work. Before even more tards chime in that "it works for me look here's a screenshot!!!" yes, that's because it used to work until changes were made. The manifest has been refreshed. New installs do not get push notifs.

Fix this. Get badge. Get 25k.

Thank you.
