The three least heard words in the universe will serve you well, and often catch people off guard - don’t be afraid to use them.
“I was wrong.”
Admit your mistakes when they happen, then when something goes wrong no one will accuse you.
As a self proclaimed leftist who has been to many protests, I have never once heard anyone say the word Antifa except for my Maga boss when he thought Antifa was going to come and rob his house after the BLM protests…
as long as the investment mortgages aren’t sub prime 🙃
Isn’t this what jeff Bezos is doing with fractional real estate investment, except evil?
Not pooping on the idea, I would totally toss money towards a fractional mortgage to help someone else get a home, just noting how the upside down universe version of this idea is already out there.

I did not intend to ever say you can have personalized advertisements without invading someone’s privacy, I’m not sure what I wrote that you interpreted that way, possibly my discussion about how I feel the current ads are not always relevant?
Either way, I stated that advertisers should utilize the content of the website or the content being viewed as a method to advertise, which does not involve invasions of privacy.
Or maybe it was when I said “you don’t need to invade someones privacy to advertise to them”
That is me saying, you can have advertisements that are meant for a specific group, and believe that someone is part of that group based on them visiting a website, without invading their privacy.
Its how newspapers did advertisements, its why magazines existed - to sell ad space for specific interest groups. People also give away data by signing up for websites, interest groups, or ordering things, all data that can be harvested without entering my computer or invading my privacy.
I’m not sure what I said is conflicting, and I feel like your statement is trying to minimize the point I am making, but thats ok, I believe we will never come to agreement here because I firmly disagree with the disruption of privacy for the sake of advertisement.
You can say my feelings are meaningless, but as this gets more invasive people will seek ways to opt out, which I believe is meaningful, although you can say and feel whatever you want my friend :).
Thanks for the book rec, I’ll look it over!
honestly this seems pretty genius, I always wondered how much compute was wasted to make the AI sound smart/flowery/friendly/whatever-eey when all I wanted was raw information.
Yeah I understand that, but I will never support trading privacy so advertisers can generate more revenue, so I will continue to propose non-invasive alternatives and tell people supporting invasive methods that they are wrong.
I mean most of the ads I get are meaningless to me despite being personalized, I feel like a lot of people say the same thing, but maybe I am in the minority here.
Either way, I don’t think you need to invade peoples privacy to advertise to them, but agree to disagree. You’re proposing and supporting a level of capitalism that I find repulsive, profit at all costs, privacy isn’t a cost I want to spend.
idk maybe you’re right, we’ll see if we both live long enough to find out…
Not much to do with them unless you want to photograph something specific, and for photographers/videographers the quality can be a let down unless you spend like 2k+ at least, because you basically are using a flying GoPro (DJIs version, but still not exactly mind blowing photography capabilities there).
well now I have something to do this weekend if the weather is poor, thank you!
ah ok, I have some experience hosting Ollama and of course stable diffusion, but haven’t really messed with too many others, thanks for the insight!
Yeah in my experience the better your input (original writing) and prompt, the better it does, although I think it really depends on what you’re looking for.
I can be a bit… Verbose…? So when there is a character or text limit I will use an LLM to shorten or condense my thoughts, which has turned out fairly well, but I bet the quality degrades quickly as the inputs degrade in quality.
For context and to your knowledge of the field, is Qwen 3.5 supposed to be cutting edge?
The Expanse sheds one I believe to be a plausible picture of our future, although it seems optimistic on some fronts.
funny how the toolbox makes their one whisker look loooooonngggg
Maybe? I think they used to advertise based on the content and expected demographics for the website, which is an alternative method that doesn’t require invasive digital fingering.
wow, seems like I probably heard that story before and internalized without realizing, although I would love to believe I guessed correctly.
Super cool piece of history, its easy to forget often people are just flying by the seat of their pants despite the way history and photographs make it look / feel otherwise.
definitely some layers to this advice for sure, situation and relationship matters!
