AI is a garbage generating plagiarism machine. It’s not political

Yes. Think about what it is plagiarising. Datasets are biased; this is like statistics/ML 101.

outside of a single country where everything has to look political to prevent people from voting independent,

You can just say the country, and also, this doesn't really make any sense. Am I to infer that, if things weren't political, people would vote (a famously political action) for independents?

and the only regulation AI ever needs is one declaring all it produces a derivative work of all the material it used for learning.

I'm pretty sure there's a lot more wrong with LLMs than just plagiarism.

Any attempts to ascribe further properties to that remixing machines are just natural intelligence equivalent of slop.

I'm not 100% sure what you mean here.

Anything worth talking about is political. What the hell are you on about?

Day 12:

P1Ok. I have been traumatised by computational geometry before, so I was initially spiralling. Luckily, there wasn't too much comp geo stuff to recall.

My solution was a lot simpler than I initially thought: no need for union-find, accounting for regions inside regions, etc. Just check every square for a given region, and if it touches a square in the same region that you've seen before, subtract the common edge. This is linear in the area of the problem, so it's fast enough.

P2It took a moment to figure out that I could modify the above perimeter counting to mark the squares containing the perimeter and walk along it afterwards, counting each edge. This is also linear in area.

I actually have a shrimp torture farm. It brings me infinite joy. However its running costs are quite high and I require donations to keep it going

But actually, real internet truthers know that the above is a revisionist version of history put forth as a psyop by russian troll farms, in addition to inventing AI chatbots and adding fluoride to water. This is all to weaken and feminise western men and turn them communist.

The evidence? owo actually comes from the Russian word "хорошо", meaning "good" or "ok", and its usage is normalising russian language in today's tiktok-pilled youth. This was a strategy cooked up by known cult leader Rajneesh, of course known in Russia as Ошо. Of course, uwu comes from the Russian word "Ушу" which is a secret programming command for the proletariat to learn Wushu and other forms of chinese/communist martial arts so that people can rise up and seize the means of production.

So my understanding is that uwu/UwU originates as a kaomoji, think (^.^) and (O.O) etc. Using the 'w' character to render the mouth starts as a furry thing or a general projection of human expression onto common animals like cats or dogs. (You'll see the omega symbol used in examples as well.)

Over the last 20-30 years or so of online interaction etc. kaomoji start to gain a sort of cringe notoriety alongside RP chatting, culminating in a few catalysing memes/copypastas.

Eventually "owo" and "uwu" start being read aloud/vocalised, similar to how people starting saying "lol" out loud, and this is associated I guess with a cutesy sort of image, though that image is often corrupted or subverted- for example e-girls, who co-opt a lot from of gaming and anime subcultures, lean into the uwu of it all.
