Ironic of you to mention zero-sum theory, because that’s what CRT and DEI seem to be based on. “If we want to correct historical racism, we must bring down innocent white people in the process by discriminating against them in hiring and constantly telling them that they’re evil.”

A better analogy would be that they do an entirely new race, forgetting about the results of the previous one. Would it now be fair to give the guy a 50-minute headstart?

Censorship is one of the first steps of totalitarianism.

What advantages does NASA give to white people that it would have to compensate for?

Why would it not know? It certainly “knows” that it’s an LLM and it presumably “knows” how LLMs work, so it could piece this together if it was capable of self-reflection.

Imagine dreaming to fly to space only to be denied having it because you’re not indigenous and they haven’t met their arbitrary quota of indigenous people.

Sure, but I definitely wouldn’t confidently answer “two”.

Sure, maybe it’s not capable of producing the correct answer, which is fine. But it should say “As an LLM, I cannot answer questions like this” instead of just making up an answer.

So by buying milk from black farmers, you will help:

• many poor black people
• some rich black people

Whereas by buying milk from poor farmers, you will help:

• many poor black people
• some poor white people

How exactly is the former better than the latter?

How is this meme relevant here? Who are the groups of people supposed to represent?

Bluesky has moderation lists that anyone can make and you can subscribe to them to choose what content you don’t want to see. It also gives you fine-grained control over the “default” moderation, allowing you to individually choose if you want to block nudity, threats, misinformation, spam, intolerance, etc.

Except you can’t move your posts. Or, really, anything other than followers.

AFAICT it’s not open source, just open weights.

This is why we need social networks where you can choose your moderation independently of your instance. And Mastodon is not that. I’m not sure if Bluesky is.

Going to? They already did.

Ah yes, the “federated” platform where most people don’t want their posts to be visible to anyone outside the platform.

You mean the alternative where a random person decides what people you’re allowed to interact with?

You say that as if any Mastodon instance was guaranteed to last several years.

I find this weird. If someone were to send your private information to someone via physical post, is the post company responsible for that too?
