  • I’m so incredibly tired of weaponized stupidity. First, I had to cringe while I studied science and the internet studied the art of denying reality. Now these dipshits are in charge of the most powerful nation in the world, working tirelessly to remove it from that position.

    In the case of his daughter, he believes the hospital should have given her budesonide, a steroid often prescribed for asthma, among other conditions, that has been touted by Kennedy for treating measles. “They didn’t give her the budesonide breathing treatment that we’d been asking for,” Hildebrand said. “They were saying that the IV steroids they were giving her were better.”

    Seriously, why even treat these people? Let them treat each other with vibes and ivermectin or whatever













  • Here are some techniques for measuring alignment:

    By in large, the goals driving LLM alignment are to answer things correctly and in a way that won’t ruffle too many feathers. Any goal driven by human feedback can introduce bias, sure. But as with most of the world, the primary goal of companies developing LLMs is to make money. Alignment targets accuracy and minimal bias, because that’s what the market values. Inaccuracy and biased models aren’t good for business.


  • I believe it’s supported. On initial install, I remember reading that it was possible to fling a video to SmartTube from the official YouTube app, but that wasn’t an option for me using NewPipe on Android. Saying that out loud, it’s probably worth it for me download the official YouTube app, just so I can do that.

    Also, the GitHub readme is a bit long and intimidating for installation. All you have to do is install this app:

    Then use the code 28544 to install SmartTube.

    It’s just a way to sidestep Google, since Google obviously doesn’t want an app like this listed on their official store.
