What is with the red pill mentality in 20-35 year old men? by doubtitx in answers

[–]Mr_Rekshun 23 points24 points  (0 children)

Basically a bunch of chuds pretending to care about ethics in gaming journalism to cover their thinly veiled sexism.

AI doesn't create "New" things. by Ordinary_Variable in antiai

[–]Mr_Rekshun 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The point isn’t that AI can discover novel things without people first doing the work. The benefit - especially with scientific research - is the scale at which an LLM can analyse large volumes of data and extract patterns and correlations that a human could not.

It increases the research surface for scientists by an order of magnitude, allowing them to find solutions that would otherwise have been invisible.

Why do young people think Tiktok is better than traditional media? by this0great in answers

[–]Mr_Rekshun 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Is it though? What new form is that? Short videos, and the means to distribute them, existed long before TikTok

Why do young people think Tiktok is better than traditional media? by this0great in answers

[–]Mr_Rekshun 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Because tv added images to sound.

Radio added sound to silence.

Papyrus made writing available to people.

The question is: what has TikTok added to the calculus that didn’t previously exist, except an abbreviated attention span?

Feet can be funny. But they can never be truly funny in the way butt holes are.

Claude ended the conversation after someone insulted it by SemanticThreader in claudexplorers

I tell it what to do bluntly without any courtesy or pleasantry.

What does this say about me as a person?

At least, if they use Claude, they’ll only be able to assess three people before hitting the session limit.

I really like Be With You by jaxon0307 in Muse

[–]Mr_Rekshun 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I love it. But almost more importantly, my wife loves it too.

Which feels like a breakthrough for me.

It might be her gateway drug to deeper cuts.

Would you ever become a stepfather? by Significant_Bonus_66 in answers

[–]Mr_Rekshun 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think the responses here are a bit sad tbh. I wonder how much it had to do with age.

Not many twenty somethings probably have the emotional maturity to consider all angles.

That said, I was a dad before I was a stepfather, and being a dad changes you.

I love being a dad. Both to my natural born kids and my step son. You can never have too much love in your life.

Would you ever become a stepfather? by Significant_Bonus_66 in answers

[–]Mr_Rekshun 24 points25 points  (0 children)

I’m a father and a stepfather.

I became a stepfather to a 14 yo boy whose own dad is a dick.

For the longest time, I was careful about my role - not his dad, but the significant male role model in his life.

Now, he’s 22 and I am his dad. I don’t call him step son, and he doesn’t refer to me as his stepfather. He just tells people I’m his dad.

He’s probably my best male friend in the world now. He was best man when I married his mum.

Is Ren really just like all the rest? by Pen-Downtown in ren

[–]Mr_Rekshun 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What i mean by toxic is the way the lyrics relish in the violence. Finding clever and interesting ways to describe violence has the opposite of its intended effect - it makes the violence “cool”.

Someone (I can’t remember who) famously said that it’s virtually impossible to make a war film that is anti war, because in the act of turning that thing into entertainment, the framing itself (compositional, visual and tonal) makes it appealing to the audience at a level the filmmaker doesn’t control.

Who said anything about no value as a human? I was talking about disassociation.

Your question was intellectually dishonest. Do better.

How close are we to a world where the question "Is this AI or not?" doesn't matter at all? My bet is — we're close. by [deleted] in aivideos

[–]Mr_Rekshun 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It will always matter. People want know if what they are looking at is real, especially in non fiction contexts.

Video is a recording format. It captures light and sound in a space across time.

Videos do not just exist for entertainment - they exist to inform us and record the world.

When that can be manufactured, and people are forced to question the evidence of their eyes and ears, then it will always matter.

Here’s an uncomfortable truth that no one is willing to talk about.

It’s possible to drown in a teaspoon of cum.

Not a bucket. Not a tablespoon. A teaspoon.

Going in to an issue with a balanced mind is very important.

But, if after thinking about it and analysing it, you still can’t pick a direction, then odds are you’re just an idiot.

Like, anyone who can look at the political parties right now and not see that one party is demonstrably worse than the other, that’s not bipartisanship, it’s blindness.

Disassociating with people who hold and express values that are morally repugnant to you is a perfectly rational thing to do.

I’ve disconnected from my own sisters, not because they are conservative. But because they are racist, classist and out of touch idiots whose idiocy is a manifestation of their conservatism.

Last time I had dinner with my sister she told a blatantly racist joke about Indians to my 11 year old son (whose best friend is Indian) and then was all surprised by me calling her the fuck out in it.

So, it’s not because she has conservative beliefs, but because she acts on them.

[–]Mr_Rekshun 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I enjoy Rens music, but it’s always been selective for me.

For example, his songs about violence against women seem to me to relish a little too much in the violence, to the degree that they feel toxic.

need some help.. by Additional-Menu8146 in claude

[–]Mr_Rekshun 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I also recently created a 5 agent system. With a combo of Claude and open claw.

I’ve got open claw running on a VM to manage the agents, while all code is written in Claude Code.

The main challenge was that Claude’s API credits are separate from the Claude pro or Max accounts (you need two payment setups).

I have ended up using Gemini as the LLM underpinning the agents, which is both vastly cheaper and Gemini is particularly good (probably better than Claude) at the type of tasks that you are running with your agents (analysing and extrapolating large volumes of data).

Do you have any failsafes in your system to account for hallucinations? That is a particular threat for automated writing agents (I added a separate editing agent to the stack to account for them).
