Blut posted:Its just online dating in the year 2023. Plenty of people also use actual copy and paste scripts on the apps because it saves time having the same conversation again and again when all you're doing is racking up one night stands each week. Still can't believe there isn't a 100% one night stand focused app called InstaSlam.

Not for nothing but if people would just spend a little time in the gym they wouldn't have to become Data Scientists just to get laid.

I'm raising money to found a startup to develop an app where you give it full access to all your files, emails, dms, social accounts, etc, and the app would ingest all of that into its ML algorithm and automatically schedule one night stands for you with partners who are compatible. No swiping or dming or any input from you would be needed other than access to all your poo poo. The algorithm would just pick suitable partners for you and put a time and place to gently caress on your calendar. Afterwards, both parties would rate each other's performance and go on their merry way. Do I hear any offers for a billion dollars?

Some sort of automated flame thrower on the front of the car should be able to do this reasonably acceptably for about the needed twenty of or so foot in front. Even easier. Just live in California where the snow is optional and is only something you visit on occasion.

https://twitter.com/EccentricFlower/status/1616185035387715593 It's one thing to quietly change something in your policy or EULA to your customers, it's another to first remove functionality from them on a thursday, stay quiet about it for a week until quietly changing the policy to justify the removal.

Tech Nightmares: 5. Unlock Adolf Hitler for 500 coins. I'm amazed that the chat already sounds like it's written by a PR agent for the historical monsters in question. The technology will slightly improve in the near future, and lazy teachers will start using history chatbots as part of their lessons.

I'm pretty sure what happened is that the AI people just feed the public works of those famous people into a chat bot, but they also put in a fail safe to make sure they didn't encourage violence, illegal activity, or racism. So, you end up with the hilarious scenario of Osama Bin Laden saying 9/11 was wrong and Nazis saying they made a mistake. Which sort of makes you wonder what the point of making those AI chatbots of historical figures was in the first place.

I think it's including any biography they could find, sign up for a book sale service like bookgorilla and you'll quickly realize there's a huge market for authors writing "biographies" of these people with exactly the tone they have in this app. For Robert E Lee especially I think it's been robots churning them out for years now. They're usually like a dollar or even free so all the better for these chatbot companies

https://www.cnbc.com/2023/01/20/twitter-is-down-to-fewer-than-550-full-time-engineers.html The numbers are in. ~80% of people fired – roughly 60% before the “hardcore pledge”, and then half of the rest resigned by the pledge deadline (in reality there were some smaller firings after the pledge too). The company is down to fewer than 550 engineering FTEs, and a Trust & Safety team smaller than SA's politics button pushers.

That's horrible, I can't imagine they're properly maintaining the platform at this point. Like I don't think it's physically possible to keep running long term with that few employees.

The closest thing I've found is an RSS feed setup, but the options I've seen recommended have been pretty shady.

And while number of employees needed for /technical/ maintenance can be smaller than what's needed under active development --- that requires that you don't have a moron running the company wanting major rearchitectures and firing tons of people without much thought. .... And the hard part is always moderation anyway.

So far, Spring is still working for me (https://apps.apple.com/us/app/spring-for-twitter/id1508706541), but do you want to drop $12 on the chance that it stays working?

What I’m more surprised about is that Twitter had 7500 employees according to that article. Like what in the world were all those people doing? It’s not like Twitter is/was a big umbrella company with different distinct divisions and products like Facebook (the website itself, the VR unit, etc) or Google. All they do is run the website? What am I missing?

Correct me if I'm wrong but don't most of the social media management peoples for brands and what not use third party apps to keep track of all that poo poo? I know that used to be the case like a decade ago not sure about now. If so I can imagine quite a few brands that were on the fence about staying on will just say gently caress it. I mean normally I'd say that would make a social media platform better, less brands, but I mean twitters circling the drain so much it's mostly just funny.
