this is Habryka talking about how his moderating skills are so powerful it takes lesswrong three fucking years to block a poster who’s actively being a drain on the site
here’s his reaction to sneerclub (specifically me - thanks Oliver!) calling LessOnline “wordy racist fest”:
A culture of loose status-focused social connection. Fellow sneerers are not trying to build anything together. They are not relying on each other for trade, coordination or anything else. They don’t need to develop protocols of communication that produce functional outcomes, they just need to have fun sneering together.
He gets us! He really gets us!
I figure eventually some proprietary work would make it into the wild via autocomplete. Copilot used to be cool with inserting other programmer’s names and emails in author notes for instance, though they seem to have started filtering that out in the mean time.
Copilot licenses let you specifically opt out from your prompts and your code being used to train new models, so it would be a big deal.
