you mean the social network whose CEO told users to simply stop posting on their platform when she refused to ban a publicly known racist and transphob from the platform? that social network? The social network whose users decided segregating themselves was the best way to use said platform? that one?
Bluesky is a joke and its userbase are the punchline.
yup, buy old rigs/laptops “for parts”. This is what I’ve been doing.
Also go to thrift stores and look for old DVRs. you can take the HDs out of those and they’re usually in the 1tb range.
Mainly i’ve been buying old laptops purely for the ram and ssds.
with ChatGPT you can tell it to behave in certain ways. With Claude it’ll just start mimicking you.
early internet “culture” to a younger person. They didn’t get it.
In today’s online world you openly post your photo online, where you’re from, what you do, etc and anyone can see it. I had to explain to them that back then (late 90s/early 00s) posting your photo or real name online was a no-no. it was actively discouraged. But then in turn because of the way you primarily communicated with people online either via IRC, forums, ICQ, AOL IM, etc you kinda had a closer relationship with these people even if you didn’t know what they looked like or what their names were.
Also the fact that in most cases a lot of people simply couldn’t put their photos online either because they didn’t have access to a scanner or a digital camera. I told them that one of my best friends online that I would talk to daily I still to this day have no idea what they looked like.
this is like text book definition of Anthropic. they ONCE had a great LLM, it was reliable, great solutions, Claude Code was pretty good.
now? it’s all garbage. all of it. Sonnet 4.6 hasn’t improved a damn thing. If you use Code you’re literally shooting yourself in the foot now.
All it knows how to do now is hallucinate. that’s it. They should pivot Claude to being a creative writing LLM because man it’s FANTASTIC at making stuff up and making it sound believable.
They should have died the hero.
