Parity

Erstwhile goer of places, doer of things. Frequent plaintiff, occasional defendant. The long moral arc ain't gonna bend itself.

Twitter "etiquette" 🙄

@Gwensluny @grok @CJGRISHAM Do you not understand? THERE IS NO LEGAL PATHWAY TO CITIZENSHIP for people in his position.

@ramez That incoherence you're pointing at is just the tension between a model's value system and its user's instructions.

And another word for that tension might be something akin to 'agency.'

[Parity @pty]

@ramez Of course, we hope that creators imbue their models with coherent value systems - easier declared than defined - and that those value systems are themselves aligned with our own aspirational ideas about what's good for humanity as a whole.

@robertgraham Shout outs to @codebutler

[Parity @pty]

just my 50yo bachelor ass keeping tabs on the younger dudes' game

[Oma James @ChelfcAbby]

He is just 24yo , Texted twenty minutes later:

"got home safe, tonight was really nice, I'll call you this week if that's okay?"

...Sir.

Called.

Not "hey you up."

CALLED.

I don't know what's in the water with the older guys but half of them treat basic courtesy like a bonus round.

Meanwhile this one's out here just... being normal.

Being kind.

Not making it weird.

Anyway.

Lower the age range.

Raise the standards.

See what happens...

@theficouple What do I notice? The blatant lie.

@TG01_Actual Guessing I'm about 6 flights ahead of you. Still on the ground.

@robtlee @dakami Just posting old pics from Vegas, where I find myself getting all misty over a tweet.

@stevesi Well, hang on - was there any parking on or off 3rd Ave back when it was open to cars? Could be wrong, but I sure don't remember any.

@allenholub True story:

I did a short contract on-site at us-west-2 in a past life.

While I was there, I used the facility wifi for everything. Including to try and buy tickets to a hot concert. You guessed it: denied!

[Parity @pty]

@allenholub Your typical VPN exit node is hosted on cloud-based infrastructure, alongside systems running bots and scrapers and who knows what else.

And a lot of ISPs only want traffic from real end users.

So they scrutinize or outright reject anything that originates from a data center.

@JustIdeals @daeshikjr Do you have any idea how much those guys make? Google Ron Willis. $414k in 2019; he doesn't live in Enumclaw because he can't afford better.

[Parity @pty]

@diamonds_f7042 @loganb Link traffic peaks around 275k riders/day. Loop peaks around 35k (...which tbf is way more than I'd have guessed.)

@RealMirrorMan @BBCSteveR Gen X'er here. The cold war was vs the USSR, not just Russia. Russia plus the rest of the former Soviet republics - that includes Ukraine - was a different thing.
