On average. LOLN should down-weight outliers pretty well. As long as the weight matrices are known / verifiable. The weight matrices are known right? (princess leia meme)
tbh i’ve never tried to look up the actual details of the models, maybe it is available ? (genuinely interested now, . . . nah actually on second thought idgaf, i’m still not using it until , at least, i can remap that key on my work-laptop to “right click”)


Demagoguery existed in writing since at least ‘The Epic of Gilgamesh’. ‘AI’ is just a fancy pen for more of the same.
Real scientific writing, (given gravitas only in as far as it is directly linked to experiment/ test / verifiable / repeatable observation) is a depressingly small part of language.
Like all propaganda, what matters is who (living entities) are accepting it without question.
TBF though many scientific papers are also accepted or misinterpreted with limited inquisition so, ‘meh’.


Not at all. I believe in organised collective bargaining/protest, not random acts of irreverence. Being unprofessional and as lackadaisical the bosses just gives them excuses to sack you.
If you’re going to strike, get a fucking picket, and make them bosses know it. Don’t just wank around on your phone and prove that you can be replaced by AI, or an empty chair.
Also, I’m quite adequately compensated for my current job, it’s more the band 3,or 4’s that I’d need to go on strike for. If my union wasn’t a useless bunch of cunts.


I think it means: “1.a person who agrees with the speaker or author. 2. a person who agree with the speaker or author, and talks shit on youtube.”
We’re just waiting for the dictionaries to catch up with common usage. OED and MW are usually pretty quick though, so it should be soon.


I turn my phone off , or at least, don’t answer it when I’m getting paid to do something else.
Are ‘critics’’ in conntucut defrauding their employers, or do they just not have real jobs?


I deleted mine in 2010, when Stan Marsh showed us how (s014e4). I think it was pretty cool by then already.
Potato on pizza may be unusual, but I like it. I’m not so sure about grubs though.


At least luddites broke the machines in their protest.
Feeding machines to get a pat on the head from the bosses is seriously fucked.
I guess anyone working for ‘meta’ was already a cunt to start with though.


Yes, I reckon that mutual sensitivity between parties is more important than any rules.


Misunderstanding is where I’d put the dividing line between style and grammar, or at least useful grammar.
I didn’t know anyone cares how I pluralise emails though; I’ll be making sure to include the ‘s’ from now on though, maybe I can use it to literally get some nob-heads to reveal their true nature.


Marathon is a pretty old tech mode of travel - not sure we really need robots to take on heritage tasks.
Let me know when they’re faster than the train from Beijing to Nanjing.


Over most distances that most tortoises actually want to travel, I suspect they’re not much slower than a jet.
Tortoises hate being asked to open their shells by airport security.


Do you notice people misunderstanding you? That’s how you’d know.
If you are not getting feedback from your readers, then fair enough, you’ll never know; but in that case, how do you even know anyone is reading your writing?
I tend to think my grammar its like a tree falling in the woods, the few squirrels that notice it can probably find another tree to harass.
Second time? That’s master level pengwinning if you ask me.


Internet says in French they just generalise to say ‘bird’.
‘Straight as an arrow’ , or ‘as the arrow flies’, might be better though; pretty straight if there’s no wind.
I used to have a friend who pronounced “arrow” like “owl” so maybe go with that.
This also has me thinking about making a bee-line for something.


There was a 1990s late night tv show in the uk called the Adam and Joe show where they did tv and movie remakes using kids toys. Stupid crap from two twats in a bedroom.


The author of this article obviously isn’t searching my computer though, since they don’t know shit about who is or isn’t illegally searching it. But it certainly isn’t whatever this linedin thing is.
You’re doing the Lord’s work.
