How shitty would you feel, as a hotshot AI researcher who just delivered a model architecture getting way better scores than Google, Anthropic, and OpenAI in all kinds of industry-standard benchmarks ...

... and then learn Musk was high some night and just fucked with the system prompt, not knowing really what he's doing, ham-fistedly trying to make his egostistical conspiracy-deluded self the arbiter of truth and ethics for Humanity

Those other labs are offering pay packages just as attractive as Musk's

I don't mind that Trump is kicking the USA in the nuts; the MAGAs love it.

I mind that, because USA is so massive, the whole of humanity is also impeded by these science-denying Christofascists

Will it be a tails spin? That might make a lot of sense

'twould be much better if only Crooks' finger had crooked a quarter second quicker

I delete all my social media periodically for similar reasons.

Even communities of people who are really level headed and supportive, like academics and engineers. Eventually there is groupthink, tribalism, and generally people who I am over (and I'm sure it's mutual)

Worse than Slack...

Now that is saying something

I had the opposite experience. Some in house devs are extremely talented and have (middle) management support.

(Upper management fires those groups and uses the savings to buy Atlassian)

Remember open source wikis? Twiki?

They were much better. More functional, faster, intuitive.

Corporates got rid of those and Atlassian got rich

BugZilla works for lots of usecases also

As a person who has designed several enterprise data models, I would like to personally congratulate the entire middle school class that belched up Atlassian's

Having used quite a few others: hard disagree

Several companies I've worked at had bespoke internal systems that were less general but extremely efficient to use.

It kills me to think some bean counters probably gutted them and gave the money to Atlassian

I'm all for I2P, it solves some design limitations that Tor has.

And Tor is absolutely not a bulletproof technology.

But please, have some concrete reasons for not using it. "The devs are shady" is about as scientific and useful as "vaccines cause autism"
