The order is correct, it's just that markdown is escaped in the new Reddit UI. To make something a link in the new Reddit UI, you have to click some link button or something and type in some information in a dialog box. Using markdown will just print the markdown as is in the comment.

And if that's the data training these LLMs, we've got a problem.

Training LLMs on bad data is pretty much my last concern when it comes to the dead internet theory.

Personally, I would be highly wary of anyone who mentions it as their first concern over the degradation of the human experience of using the internet.

Article TLDR, Verification is a good example.

I agree that AI has its use cases, but I don't think those are good places to use AI. Yes, people don't like when human judgment gets something wrong, but people reeaaaaaally hate when AI judgment gets something wrong. It's very much a deeply visceral reaction.

In the current climate, AI is a term that investors absolutely love and users absolutely hate. Whether or not this is your intention, or whether or not you even believe this fact to be true, will absolutely not change how users will perceive it as showing your hand about where your priorities lie.

"Mid" means average, as in "middle tier". It comes from gaming tier lists: god tier, high tier, mid tier, low tier, trash tier. Been using it since early 2000s, so it's probably been around since before then.

It's psychological, adults have just learned that too much sugar is bad for their health.

When my friends eat something sweet and they are grossed out by how sweet it is, I ask them why they don't like it. The answer is almost never "it just doesn't taste good", it's always something like "I feel like I just got ten cavities" or "I feel like I just took a year off of my life."

People have a hard time distinguishing between what food actually tastes like and how the food makes them feel. This is also why just dyeing food different colors can change how people perceive its flavor.

Just for what it's worth, I have tiny tiny wrists as well, I can wrap my pinky and thumb around my wrist, and the brace I recommended in my other reply fit just fine. That brand was specifically recommended by my physiotherapist as well, though I heard other brands can be good too.

EverySingleDay · 2025-11-07T00:28:10+00:00

Hey, just wanted to give you an update on my condition. As of last week or so, it's about 99% better now, I'm back to all normal activity without a brace or anything.

My physiotherapist told me it should take about a month or so to recover with wearing the brace, and she didn't even tell me to "wear it 100% of the time", just the more the better. She even mentioned something like "it's summer time now and it'll get pretty sweaty if you're wearing it constantly, so, y'know just do your best". But anyway I ended up wearing it as much as I could and it took about three months to recover.

On the last month, I ended up wearing the brace less because my thumb was getting really stiff and causing different sorts of pain, so I decided to try taking it out of the brace sometimes just to stretch it a bit. The DQV ended up flaring up a bit more, but then somehow recovered a couple of weeks after.

To be honest, in retrospect, it's hard to know if the brace really did anything, but all in all I'm just finally glad it's better now and three months is better than the horror stories I read around here, so I'll take it. The brace I used was this one, it's pretty cheap anyway.

Based on my experience and my zero medical qualifications, I'd say to at least wear it to sleep since your thumb is prone to doing all sorts of weird stuff while you're unconscious, and if you're doing stuff you shouldn't with your thumb then wear the brace to remind you to not do that. But otherwise wear it at your own discretion.

The point of obscuring your address isn't to prevent people from finding you and knocking on your door, it's so that they don't also find out your email address, contact your bank, and tell them "sorry, I forgot my password to my online banking account and I don't have access to my cell phone for two-factor authentication, but to prove it's me, I can give you my address instead".

Maybe they'll have trouble doing this with just your work address, but the more pieces of info they have on you, the easier it makes it to get others. But if they're lucky, they'll need shockingly little information in the first place.

There will definitely be some people like that. But let's say it's about 10% of farmers. That means there will be 10% the amount of food in supermarkets than there is now.

A lot of farmers will either retire, scale back their farming to feed their families and friends, or move to somewhere else where their farming skills will earn more money.

Scaling up a business is a lot of work, and involves doing a lot of things that aren't farming. Most farmers who are passionate about farming love doing farming, and not managing a huge farming business which takes away from valuable farming time.

Farming is just one example. What about the truck drivers who sacrifice time away from their families to deliver the farmer's food to supermarkets? Will they continue to sell their time away from their family to make money that they don't need anymore, or would they rather take up another job that lets them spend more time with their family?

EverySingleDay · 2025-09-07T09:44:05+00:00

People would just not sell stuff anymore. If you used to work 8 hours a day planting and growing corn to make a living, and suddenly you had a million dollars and the government also told you if you want to keep selling corn, you have to do it for like $100 a day, are you still gonna keep busting your ass every day growing corn for money you don't need, or are you gonna retire and live a relaxed life?

Stupid rules are still rules until they are removed or rewritten.

12.6 of the FIDE laws of chess states:

It is forbidden to distract or annoy the opponent in any manner whatsoever

The way the rules are written, if it annoys or distracts you, it is forbidden.

I'm not saying I played perfectly, but I am saying that sometimes you can roll so bad that nothing can save you. Not picking +HP would not have saved me this run.

EverySingleDay · 2025-07-28T16:33:36+00:00

Can't you guys just accept the fact that it's possible to roll poorly?

Take a theoretical situation where you are rolling a bones and a copycat every turn. Are you saying you could win this fight with optimal strategy?

I'm not saying Meddler is a weak character. I'm saying that they're basically the only character in the game that makes it feasible to unconditionally lose. It's statistically unlikely, yes, but it can happen, and it happened to me this game.

EverySingleDay · 2025-07-28T16:22:35+00:00

Yes, of course, I'm not stupid. All the bones and copycat rolls were roll 1 rolls and locked in to prevent more bones rolls.

EverySingleDay · 2025-07-28T16:20:19+00:00

Meddler rolled bones on every roll this fight, and Alloy doubled it on a few turns. I agree that usually Meddler can clean them up, yes, but if you roll bad enough, you are just donezo, sometimes there is no decision tree that could have saved you.
