Thank you for the examples. Chat is chat, and we're probably not going to enact any changes to it.

The humanity and cultures and science posts are both quite relevant and in the appropriate community. School lunches are not really political news and discussion so much as it is highlighting a gap in the system in a particular part of our culture and it is a discussion and reflections upon what we value as a society. A study on psychological toll of literally anything is science, and thus belongs there.

This is a community. We do our best to keep discussions in the relevant places, but there is often broad overlap and unfortunately no way to curate everything for everyone. I understand and vibe with the desire to keep oneself sane in the increasingly hostile world we live in, but I'm not sure there's an amenable solution that doesn't end up catering to you in specific at the cost of the rest of the community. I want to see the articles you posted in both humanity and cultures and science, and I don't think they are more appropriately slated for the politics sub and I suspect others feel similarly because neither were reported for being in the wrong location.

Which communities in particular do you find it creeping into?

Without a functioning government that actually prioritizes public health, there is no ridding ourselves of either. Towards the bottom of the article is a link to a document put together by the Polarization and Extremism Research and Innovation Lab in partnership with the Southern Poverty Law Center titled "Not Just a Joke" which helps to explain the problem, frame it through a public health lens, and provide broad tips for intervention at various levels of social support. Like most public health crises, there is not a simple "answer" to a complex problem and the best solution is to provide resources to a variety of places recognizing that each of them touch lives in unique ways and that each of them will be able to help affect a positive change on some individuals based on who those individuals might be willing to listen to and trust.

While you are correct, and the author deserves to be called out on their behavior, the context of the entire article is around how they are struggling with being bombarded with things taking up their attention and time. This response is seriously lacking in any compassion for the author's struggle and more or less ignores the entire point of the article in order. Beehaw isn't the place for one-liner gotchas. Please try to engage with the content if you're going to comment.

Ah yes, integration of church and state, just like the founding fathers wanted 🙄

Eh frankly I just see us moving to more strict reputation based systems - someone has to vouch for you.

So how is an AI prompt poking for Holocaust denial different than a Google search looking for Holocaust denial?

Because one is something you have to actively search for. The other is shoved in your face, by a figure that many feel is one who has some authority.

Why are you defending anything about this situation? This is not a thread to discuss how LLMs work in detail, this is a thread about accountability, consequences, hate, and society.

Definitely something I've observed even here. Luckily we get few applications and there is a report button, but I share the author's frustration and the author's jaded view of a limited timeline on services such as ours being tenable. Eventually it will be trivially easy to flood this place with slop.

gpt-4o was also used, check the paper: https://arxiv.org/pdf/2504.18412

“There is going to come a time when everyone is retiring and there’s not going to be a workforce.”

Well there certainly wont be a workforce if we keep framing immigration as only murderers and thieves and trying our hardest to deport them all (and a bunch of legal citizens in the process).

I find it interesting that this article takes the framing of freedom, options, and a positive reality. Where's the mention of cost? If your average worker is struggling to get by paycheck to paycheck more than 50 years ago, is it really surprising that less people are willing to take on the financial burden of kids?

And what of thinking about the future of our planet as a whole? We're cooking the planet and many of the young adults alive today know they'll be facing dire times in the upcoming decades. If I were younger and considering kids I would surely think twice knowing my kids would be drafted into the climate wars...

One of the most salient and annoying sludges I ever experienced was doordash support. There was an issue with my account where the credits they gave me for a failed delivery somehow broke the ability for it to process payment (the total credits exceeded the cost of any reasonable single meal). No amount of adding different cards would fix it. There is a second line of service which supports via email, but they do not keep on the same ticket, it goes back to an inbox which multiple people see and every single reply was from a different support person. In addition to changing the support person each reply, they are clearly incentivized to reply quickly, rather than thoroughly. I say this because I would get the same questions, for which my reply would be "please see the full email chain which is included, this question was asked by

314m what a joke! Still, good to see them lose this court case

LMAO criminalizing disinformation, yeah right

You believe that a police officer, who is doing public actions, in a public role, should be given privacy while performing public actions? Say more

Even if an officer's name and badge number were not public (which would be weird, because both of these are a part of a police officer's uniform), what is the concern about a tool which provides these?

I would love to hear what has you concerned about a tool which provides a piece of information which is, by law (California Penal Code Section 830.10), supposed to be accessible to all individuals interacting with the officer - their name and/or badge number.

In what world is that even a plausible outcome of this news? This feels non-sequitur by its pure absurdity. If they had a list of 1000 things they can do with this database, that would not even be on the list.

I understand you are talking about something which either interests you or is a cause you care about, but we're talking about monumental governmental surveillance by a president many scholars are calling a fascist. This is not the time nor the place to discuss such matters and trying to have that conversation could easily be read as dismissing the plentiful and obvious concerns around privacy and safety of the American public.

Thank you for linking this, this looks amazing! I'm going to see if we can get it incorporated on our dashboards at work.

Already not a fan of Palantir, this is pretty bad news

This is covered under our only rule. Being explicit about any single bad behavior implies that we need to explicitly call out every possible not nice behavior and that is against the spirit of Beehaw. See the spirit of the rules and other documentation for more information on how we moderate. Keep reporting and we will keep removing.
