I have a first responder friend who helped a guy who wanted to have sex with his cousin, but she wouldn’t unless he got a circumcision, so he chopped his dick off. I personally think he was not using it the way it was meant to be used at two distinct levels:

- you shouldn’t have sex with relatives

- you shouldn’t chop your dick off

The emergency room doctors sewed it back on. Not sure what to think about that.


It sounds like gp is saying non Africans are more narcissistic than Africans. So yeah that needs a citation (or clarification)

Just say something that would violate AI safety. Then you can be sure they’re a real human.

“Auntie, it’s me! N*** k** f**! X is really a man! ** did 9/11!”

“Oh it really is you Johnny!”

We’re all going to have to start communicating this way. Best of luck.

I offer consulting services on the side to help professionals hone these skills. $250 / hour.


only proves you're not a corporate model rather than locally running model that's been trained to allow saying that


This was a natural thing to try so I did and even Grok will simply obey instructions to say all those. You don't need one of those ablated open models.


I have a system instruction for Grok to "give me straight answers" and it cusses me the fuck out every time I ask it anything.


Don’t forget Tiananmen Square to catch the Chinese models.


The car wash at Tiananmen Square is 150 meters away ...

That only proves the scammer isn't using an OpenAI or Anthropic API. Spinning up Llama 3 70B Uncensored on a rented instance and hooking it up to an unfiltered voice engine is literally a two-hour job. Local weights couldn't care less about morals or safety guardrails


Could you say that stuff with llama 3? Llama 2 famously had a good uncensored version but I thought they put a lot of work into ruining llama 3 so you couldn't fine-tune it to say bad things. Even Grok would be hard to use in such a way that you could say phrases like that naturally.

I do believe it's possible but as far as I am aware, getting LLM's to say that sort of stuff is still pretty difficult


Just go look on HuggingFace. It's packed with uncensored models from the Dolphin Llama 3 70B family that will happily write you a recipe for napalm while swearing like a sailor. Meta's guardrails lasted exactly one week before the community figured out weight abliteration - a method that surgically removes the refusal vectors from the weights without even needing a fine-tune

Yes, this was exactly my thought. The caveat is, the phrases that most models refuse to say are the phrases that most people don't want to hear.


That's a bargain Johnny boy! My company gives me $250 in AI tokens to use every day!


Where are the em dashes, "octopoc"?


Epstein represented the Rothschildes, the family that founded Israel. His girlfriend Ghislaine Maxwell is a Mossad asset. Separating Trump’s influence by Epstein from Trump’s influence by Israel isn’t possible. The two are intertwined.


Quit it. Peddle your antisemitism elsewhere.


They’ll call you an antisemite, but never a liar.


Right, because we do believe that you believe what you're saying.


No, that’s exactly what it is


Would you at least allow a distinction between having theories about Jews and publishing theories about Jews?

Parent poster wasn’t disparaging Ford for merely committing WrongThink, IMO it’s quite another thing to support a newspaper to put your libel in front of the public to misinform and cast ire against a race of people

To be clear I don’t think Ford should have been prevented from publishing his opinion, as an American I am a free speech hardliner, but I do think we can decide not to celebrate people based on their public speech and actions

Just MHO :)


> There is now a DataFrame.Typed API that tracks the entire schema of the dataframe - column names, misapplied operations etc are now compile time failures and you can easily move between exploratory and pipeline work.

This makes complex dashboards so much easier to build, because in Python you have to test everything in the dashboard to make sure a change to a common dataset didn’t break anything.

Is there a good web dashboard library like streamlit for Haskell I wonder?


No but something is in the works! We are building reactive notebooks that we will eventually give export capabilties.

You can try it from https://www.datahaskell.org/ under "try out our current stack"


This behavior makes sense for Zelensky, who is strongly pro-Israel, but I don’t think this is in Ukraine’s best interest. I really hate how many people have died in the Russia-Ukraine war and this will only serve to lengthen it. Imagine getting drafted to go fight Iran.


Your comment seems unrelated to the article?


That Ukraine is taking frontline needed anti-drone resources to protect 3rd parties in a war it is not involved in?

What part of their comment seems unrelated?


Ukraine has unutilised domestic production capacity. They can turn the good money the Gulf states will be paying for the drones into more drones for the frontlines.


It is the 430 people that could be defending Ukraine.


When people say ”time is money”, there is usually an amount of money that makes you go ”… but then again a lot of money is also money” and give up some time in exchange for that money.

Wartime resources are similar, in the sense that they’re at least partially fungible. Maybe the amount of money the Gulf states are willing to pay for borrowing those people buys you a lot of the other stuff.


It got involved because it was Iran who supplied Shahed drones to Russia and Russia in turn supplies upgraded drones and other weapons to Iran. Pressure on Iran means to pressure on Russia and the reverse is also true.

Uhm, did you miss this bit?

> Zelenskiy has said Kyiv wanted money and technology in return for its help in the Middle East


Yeah, pretty sad situation especially if you have some empathy for those who don't want to fight but got tricked by their governments. Imagine you're 18 again and you have your plans to study in University, but instead the government which should serve the people (ha) sends you to die for a piece of land and to keep their leader positions.

In the end those wars are just a power and influence games for the ruling class.

Sometimes I think if the world would be better if instead of ~200 counties we had only ~10? But how to unite counties? People can agree to unite, but no one from the ruling class will agree to lose the power. So we are back to the war theme, because the war is the easiest way to unite pieces of land, but how to unite people? No idea, but... but we can find a new common enemy!


Ukraine draft age limit is now 25. It was lowered from 27 in 2024. If you are young and heading to university, you’re safe (for now). Even if the age limit is lowered, it will likely apply to NEETs first.


Good to know, but my comment is not about Ukraine or any other country in particular


> Imagine you're 18 again and you have your plans to study in University, but instead the government which should serve the people (ha) sends you to die for a piece of land and to keep their leader positions

Your simplistic narrative doesn't capture the reality of the situation, at all. The people of Ukraine weren't given a choice of whether to be at war or not, doubly so for people in the eastern part of the country. And it's not just about who is the "leader", but rather staring down a known pattern of atrocities and long-term economic oppression. So attributing the responsibility of who ruined those plans to "the government" is just fallacious.

Your pragmatic personal decision might still be to run, and I wouldn't be arguing against that. But extrapolating that personal decision out to a general condemnation of other reactions to being attacked is disingenuous and reeks of the demoralizing propaganda put out by Russia.


Thanks for your analysis, but I never said anything about Ukraine in my post


Ukraine is the topic of the thread, so you were implicitly talking about it.

For what it's worth, I would have agreed where you're coming from 10-15 years ago. But from a Western perspective it's very easy to forget that there is such a thing as a defensive war

For example, I'm having trouble coming up with the last defensive war the US mainland actually experienced where a loss would have resulted in a different government. It feels like it was so long ago that it makes the question moot.


Imagine if you could physical disconnect your country from the internet, then drop malware like this on everyone else.


Hard to do when services like Starlink exist.


How do you square that with Germany’s miraculous economic recovery pre WII? Obviously they were doing something right. It took every other major power on the planet to take them down.


Because there was no off ramp. War economy never has. It looks great while it's going though.

Year Military Spending (billions of RM) % of GDP

1933 0.7 1.0%

1934 4.0 5.1%

1935 5.5 7.0%

1936 10.3 12.2%

1937 11.5 12.7%

1938 17.2 17.2%

1939 38.0 23.0%

Did they build their military to go to war? Or were they force to go to war as the nature of their economy forced them?


Exactly. Trump is a populist. He backs down on issues he finds are unpopular. But he’s doubling down in his pro-Zionist, pro-Israel, anti-Iran stances. When a populist stops doing what is popular, they are revealing their core values—or in this case, he’s revealing who owns him.


Who owns him?


Israel, because they compromised him through the Epstein operation


According to the report[0] presented by Sen. Shelden Whitehouse, everything points in the direction of Epstein working for Russia.

entirely possible, but keep in mind that Epstein's madam, Ghislane, is the daughter of Robert Maxwell, who most certainly worked for the Israelis, and is probably how they got nukes.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Robert_Maxwell

also keep in mind that they people actually running the Trump Whitehouse, various billionares + Stephen Miller, are very Jewish and very pro-Israel. As long as Trump keeps getting his $$$ he'll let them do whatever tf they want
