It's not about spite. It's about not wanting your past work and creativity to continue to help an individual and a company who are bad for society, and who are destroying a platform many people loved.
I think jumping straight to calling Spez a Nazi is ridiculous.
On the other hand, Reddit has repeatedly aggressively looked the other way when it came to communities that blatantly violated the rules such as The Donald, jailbait, etc, while cracking down on and banning far milder users and communities.
Look, I found your original point interesting, but if there was a major upset in the microwave industry, then that would belong in the technology section of a news site too.
I think the fundamental question is, as the Fediverse gets more popular, then how will servers get paid for? Here are some possibilities I see for how Fediverse hosting could work at scale:
Surviving off donations alone: Possible but in my estimation unlikely, and it could veer into the territory of big donors having a controlling stake or exerting their interests.
Instances limiting number of users to what they can afford: This would require the network of instances process to really work well.
Big instances selling advertisements: Without oversight or moral commitment, this could easily go towards creepy personal data collection.
Crowdsourcing the costs: This would require transparency and fundraising or some other model
Hosts financing the operation in other ways: This could also easily get into creepy data collection practices or other dark patterns.
I hope we come up with some process or plan for avoiding the pitfalls and forging an honest and community-integrating way forward.
I haven't heard of cognitive schema assimilation. That sounds interesting. It sounds like it might fall prey to challenges we've had with symbolic AI in the past though.
When one side is suspiciously quiet or supportive about legislation that's against their publicly stated goals, it's because they secretly want it too.
Recent papers have shown that LLMs build internal world models but about a topic as niche and complicated as cancer treatment, a chatbot based on GPT-3.5 be woefully ill-equipped to do any kind of proper reasoning.
IQ is mostly a pretty arbitrary and pointless metric because things like attitude, process, and creativity matter a lot more for getting results, but it can still help to diagnose learning disabilities and it has a solid statistical underpinning. The only thing it strongly correlates with is chess ability.
Looks like the only completed Gen 3 nuclear reactors are in Asia, at Kashiwazaki (Japan), Kori (South Korea), Yangjiang, Fangchenggang, Tianwan (China), and Kudankulam (India).
Edit: I missed the Gen III+ part of that Wikipedia page. The other currently operation or under construction Gen 3+ reactors are in Sanmen, Shidao Bay, Taishan (China), Novovoronezh II, Leningrad II, Kursk (Russia), Akkuyu (Turkey), Rooppur (Bangladesh).
I heard rumors a few years ago that they were already separated.
Weird that they're supposedly going on a family vacation right after announcing that they're separating.
