@chaosgreml.in@chaosgreml.inBUT EUGENE IT’S BAD THAT WE ALLOW BAD PEOPLE TO SAY THINGS ONLINE
@chaosgreml.inGot to say that I agree. Will’s post is not at all incensed or frustrated. Incredulous, maybe.
@chaosgreml.inUhhh Josh this is called dehumanization and you should have a fucking problem with it
@chaosgreml.inlol Mike*
@chaosgreml.inWe share values here!!!
@chaosgreml.in@chaosgreml.inIke, you need to see what the brilliant and talented @grimalkina.bsky.social did just in the last two days: bsky.app/profile/grim...
She’s one of the founders of Pluralsight’s Developer Success Lab, an actual real live psychologist focused on software teams.
@chaosgreml.inI know that I say nobody changes their minds because someone corrects them on social media but just in the last 24 hours I took multiple turns around that silly math AI study, thanks to @byarielm.fyi and @grimalkina.bsky.social - each turn leading me to learn more!
@chaosgreml.inThen I got recorrected by @grimalkina.bsky.social and yet I still Do not think the study is a net negative, just messsyy
@chaosgreml.inIt doesn’t actually show this! It shows how you ALREADY treat people in general. We don’t have any science that shows the reverse at this point - it’s too early.

@chaosgreml.inLmao Dax is so funny and also right but also often hypocritical like most people
@chaosgreml.inFaaaaaaaaaaacts lmao
@chaosgreml.inWe definitely have the harder road, and its an excellent illustration that “smart” often applies to very narrow domains, while “influence” unfortunately, does not.
@chaosgreml.inAhh well this I agree with you on, as I’m sure you know. But of course, the problem is that it is _also_ a *very* good way to get your message out, and in fact, much of the reason for that is inherent in its design!
@avengingfem.meReposted by @chaosgreml.inno one is going to personalize everything, and most people will not customize substantial amounts of the software in their lives. some people will. those people are already Linux users and customize a lot of their software. this is an argument over a thing that is not going to happen.
@chaosgreml.inOh I’m gonna be as soon as Scott responds to me - he forgot I have a spaces compatible account :-p
@chaosgreml.inIs it? What is the purpose of Barack Obama having an account on social media? It’s certainly not to be read only by people who agree with him, or by a much smaller percentage of the population. Are we mad that the Pope has an account on there?
@chaosgreml.inGotcha, the elite part caught me off guard, since in my experience people use “elites” to mean “individuals whom I think are or should behave like institutions because they have a lot of money and power”
@chaosgreml.inHahah same! Now it makes me want to do more Duolingo math!
