Have a sneer percolating in your system but not enough time/energy to make a whole post about it? Go forth and be mid!
Any awful.systems sub may be subsneered in this subthread, techtakes or no.
If your sneer seems higher quality than you thought, feel free to cutānāpaste it into its own post, thereās no quota for posting and the bar really isnāt that high
The post Xitter web has spawned soo many āesotericā right wing freaks, but thereās no appropriate sneer-space for them. Iām talking redscare-ish, reality challenged āculture criticsā who write about everything but understand nothing. Iām talking about reply-guys who make the same 6 tweets about the same 3 subjects. Theyāre inescapable at this point, yet I donāt see them mocked (as much as they should be)
Like, there was one dude a while back who insisted that women couldnāt be surgeons because they didnāt believe in the moon or in stars? I think each and every one of these guys is uniquely fucked up and if I canāt escape them, I would love to sneer at them.
apparently oai has lifetime NDAs, via fasterthanlime[0]:
[0] - technically via friend who sent me a screenshot, but yāknow
I canāt imagine signing that - unless I was being paid a lot of money
keep in mind that the company heavily pre-filters for believers. that means that you have a whole set of other decision-influence things going on too, including not thinking much about this
(and then probably also the general SFBA vibe of getting people before they have any outside experiences, and know what is/is not sane)
oh that reminds me of Anthropicās company values page where they call it āunusually high trustā to believe that their employees work there in āgood faithā
ā¦thatās going to be some ratsphere fucking bullshit, isnāt it
(the tweet is here, canāt find a working nitter ritenao)
