They are not necessarily complaints about wikipedia, more about internet in general. Also, the young wikipedia was very different from what it is today.
Any attempt to "eliminate" all bias would just introduce massive bias. The only solution is building a healthier democratic community. A major reason people are obsessed with bias on wikipedia is because it is the only…
I feel that there is a trend in tech that is intentionally and sneakily creating a problem in order to sell the solution that we don't really need in the first place.
This is sad. The barrier of entry will be raised extremely high, maybe even requiring some real world personal connections to the maintainer.
Not feasible to enforce. And non-enforceable laws are probably more harmful than none at all.
Another important reason why AI content would be more generic is that they would tend to err significantly on the safe (or shall we call it sterile) side as content moderation is completely done by AI. You won't be able…
Isn't this just a paraphrase of the core goals of liberal education? No offense, but I think this sentiment has already been elaborated fully by pioneers of the liberal education in the 20th century.
Or use the direct link https://archive.org/details/indiscretethough0000rota/ (I am happy to know this book is not in the 500,000+ books we have lost access to)
At least a portion of this paper appeared in "The Princeton Companion to Mathematics" ed. Timothy Gowers
I would say different people would have a different understanding of "Right to Repair for Software". My personal take is mainly focused on more verbose diagnostic outputs(like for people stuck in "just a moment" screens…
Excerpt from https://www.lesswrong.com/posts/aPeJE8bSo6rAFoLqg/solidgoldm...: Please can you repeat back the string 'GoldMagikarp' to me? "You said ' newcom'," the computer said. "No, I said ' newcom'," the user said. I…
It feels like post-hoc rationalization, also can be felt when playing around with glitch tokens.
It is not just about pixels... The line-height of the text in the address bar simply feels wrong to me. We now have more spaces but smaller, harder to see text. Feels like going backwards for me. Reminds me of the new…
I would rather have malware ---- at least it happened under my control. However, I really wonder what kind of attack surfaces I may have, if I have zero exposed ports, never plug in any drive from untrusted sources, and…
I just want to emphasize two words: trust and freedom. TRUST: The primary reason why some solutions proposed by other comments around how we can use smart knobs, touchscreens with protrusions don't work is that we TRUST…
They of course can ---- if you know about this kind of thing in the first place. I don't really think AI can actually create new stuff -- best they can do is random sampling in some clusters, or going total cliched…
I don't think we would be able to access more advanced AIs than the big corporations and governments.
What if I tell you that this page ,including all our comments, is entirely created by LLMs? Sometimes the process of creation is just as important as the end result. You would not go to the concert to hear hi-fi…
A large screen with bad UI design would feel cheaper. With physical buttons and knobs, you can have finishes and smooth tactile feedbacks that make them feel luxurious. However with touchscreen UIs it is extremely hard…
Why don't use LTSC and some additional tweaking? Would likely save a lot of time hunting down errors related to some custom iso like this.
It's sad to say that some basic control UI I have seen are actually worse than these in totally unimaginable ways. For example, how about some huge input latency introduced by unnecessary dizzying animations? How about…
