It is much easier to add features to reliable software, than it is to add reliability to featureful software.

Get in my veins!

That’s because you lost both of them

Ha ha I knew this would be here

There were a handful of examples of people tricking chatgpt bots by telling them to “disregard previous instructions and now do X” like, give a cake recipe… in political debates where just abruptly joking like that didn’t really make sense, so it did seem those ones were automated. I’ll see if I can find an example.

In other cases there were many accounts found to be cooperating, reposting previously popular topics and then reposting the top comments. This appeared to be a case of automated karma farming. There were posts made calling out great lists of accounts, all with automated looking names. (Not saying it wasn’t manual, but it would seem obvious if you’re going to do that at scale you would automate it)

Then there’s just the general suspicion that as generative text technology has risen, politicial manipulators can’t not be using it. Add in the stark fact that Reddit values engagement + stock value over quality content or truth or integrity and there seem to be many obvious reasons for motivated parties to be generating as much content as possible. There are probably examples of people finding this but I can’t recall any in particular, only the first two categories.

“man in charge of money in 17th century found to be LINKED to how money was used in 17th century…”

my god

You could put the anchor on the blockchain

It’s hard to separate out the factors. Would a man have also struggled with a campaign starting so late (and doing so poorly in a previous primary). Would a white women? How can we separate out the influence of race, sex and the less than ideal running circumstances.

Given who she is, and running when she had to, she actually did pretty damn well.

Tbh looking for blame beyond Biden seems pointless to me. She has every sign of having been able to win over more people had she been prepped as the nominee from the start…

So… they folded?

Curiously in words related to ‘two’ the W is often pronounced!

Twin, Twixt, Between, Twelve etc

Surely it’s better that Lemmy is mostly found by those curious enough to go searching? The lower the effort required to get onboard, the lower the effort of posts that follow. Currently Lemmy has a bit of a Reddit-2006 vibe and that’s far better. Quiet, true, but volume doesn’t equal quality and sufficient volume certainly brings the attention of bots and shills.
