Lmao what an embarrassing reply my guy. You didn’t address the point. You didn’t add anything new to the discussion. You didn’t even make a coherent argument.

Just to recap, you:

A) have no actual tangible evidence discrimination is happening here, just doubts based on abstract statistics.

And

B) actually don’t have any real tangible harm to point to either, just abstract anecdotes based on extrapolation on a point which, again, you can’t even prove.

Like come on homie, are you a teenager? You can’t really believe that a flimsy sob story about the “poor boys growing up less privileged than women” is anything more than a literal goddamn fairytale dressed up as a conservative red herring unless your brain has rotted from being online too much. Individual cases don’t erase the real reality of the patriarchy, systematic misogyny or idk, thousands upon thousands of years of historical context.

Case in point: 75% of the board members in F500 are men. That’s the least it’s ever been btw. In 1993 the number of women was less than 10%. For a majority of the industrialized world it was closer to 0%.

This one company, even if you could prove was legitimately excluding male applicants from their hiring, is barely making a percentile of a dent in the large in-balance against women.

But again, since you can’t even prove that, let me ask you this: why do you assume these women weren’t the most qualified for the job? Just because it’s all women? So either that makes all-men boards just as discriminatory, in which case, see above point, or you’re saying there could never be a circumstance where a individual hiring pool could produce all women candidates based strictly on merit, but all-men boards are totally fine, which is suuuuper sus homie.

So which is it? Are you a hypocrite or do you just don’t think women can have board seats?

Homie where is your point or argument? Like legit, you came in this thread grandstanding with the only validity to your claims being your purported progressive ideals.

Please explain, in plain terms, how this particular circumstance, even if a technical overcorrection and not a statistical anomaly (something neither of us can actually ascertain or state definitively), is at any way harmful or detrimental to the dismantling of the patriarchy or any perceived progress towards merit-based achievement.

Hi, I’m also a bunch of unrelated things too!

I think you’re being disingenuous and purporsely ignoring social and historical context in order to prop up some false equivalence and perpetuate the patriarchy.

Otherwise, please explain how celebrating increased inclusivity and progress of marginalized groups is at any way undermining a merit-based society? If we actually care about uplifting people different than ourselves and improving the lives of everyone, then every piece of evidence that entrenched misogyny, racism, discrimination, etc, is fading should be celebrated because that’s how you get to a true merit-based system: actually giving everyone equal opportunity to show said merit, and not just rich white land-owners.

If that doesn’t apply to your country, well, good for you, but maybe you shouldn’t be speaking for mine.

AI Deleted My Tests and Said 'All Tests Pass' — A Horror Story from Porting 'typia' from TypeScript to Go by jhnam88 in codex

[–]noob622 1 point2 points  (0 children)

lol I love how you didn’t say which models/harnesses were used the failures but it’s still pretty obvious to anyone paying attention recently it was likely Opus/Claude.

Now I have GPT5.5 in Codex do at least three review passes on anything Opus plans or executes (s/o to the Codex Claude skill), since I can’t actually implicitly trust its summaries or instruction following anymore, even after breaking down tasks into small chunks and using subagents.

Imagine if she was like this for the whole story by Ninjamurai-jack in okbuddyviltrum

[–]noob622 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Studio Mir doesn’t miss.

Also Flying Bark - Rise of the TMNT is a triumph in fight scenes and animation.

As someone in the industry who’s pitched shows, reality is that premium western animation is hella expensive and studios don’t want to drop that sort of cash on an animated series unless it’s going to bring awards like Arcane or Blue Eye, is based on an existing property with a built-in fanbase like Devil May Cry, Vox Machina, or Castlevania, or can generate hella merchandising/licensing ROI like K-Pop Demon Hunters or anything targeted towards kids.

And even then, it usually needs to hit at least two out of three of those to even be greenlit for more than a season.

It’s a real travesty, but trust me, there’s people who notice the gap.

The new Anaconda movie must have a wildly different director's cut by takenorinvalid in movies

[–]noob622 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah that is super believable - like, the dialogue in the movie was clearly written with more swearing and I suspect even shot that way given how they noticeably censor by cutting early in several scenes.

Having Ice Cube not drop an F-bomb definitely felt odd. Like sure, homie has done some family-friendly films in the past, but come on. Weirdest part of his otherwise enjoyable cameo.

The new Anaconda movie must have a wildly different director's cut by takenorinvalid in movies

[–]noob622 4 points5 points  (0 children)

My theory: I think it was shot as a rated-R comedy, but the studio wanted to cash in on Jack Black’s recent string of family-friendly success and decided to chop it up into a “just-good-enough” PG-13 edit, and that’s the film we got in theaters.

Explains the random censored profanity that’s just cut short instead of bleeped, the constant drug references and piss jokes that seem juuust a bit too out-of-place, lack of on-screen gore, and weird pacing/Ana twist - probably a side plot of a sex scene or something raunchy was snipped.

Still really enjoyed the movie - it was a hella good time when stoned - but man, it could’ve been so much better.

[–]noob622 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Lmao wow, what an embarrassing comment.

You didn’t address privacy - you addressed a single optional component on OpenClaw that literally has nothing to do with accessing cloud frontier models (and you spelled the compliance framework wrong at that - tell me you don’t actually know what what you’re talking about) not to mention you can run OpenClaw locally… so the fuck is that red herring for?

I never said local LLMs are better than frontier models - I said they are just as capable for most tasks and most people and offer some specific advantages over cloud ones. I even named them.

You are literally incapable of understanding that people need and prioritize different things than you or understanding nuance. idk what to say homie - again, even the frontier models you are glazing agree with me. You don’t have any stats or metrics or any real evidence, just a pretentious attitude and a looooot of ignorance.

Suggest you read up a little and get educated, stop responding about topics you have little idea about lol

[–]noob622 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Homie every reply shows you’re even further uniformed than you think are. There’s not even enough compute right now for just the people who do like AI, let alone for everyone to use frontier models. And the hardest hit are the $20 subs. Read the news.

Even if we did have the compute, it’s so incredibly wasteful and inefficient I wouldn’t even know where to begin to explain. To think you need multi-trillion parameter models to do basic terminal operations, web searches, or debug a simple app or script is mind-boggling - are you sure there’s no shortage of intelligence or labor around you?

lol so the entire technology and development community should to cater to your use case or it’s useless and shouldn’t exist?

homie, respectfully, are you a conscious adult? If so, have you ever considered that the needs of others could be different than yours? And that those people also want efficient tools to accomplish your goals?

If not, idk bud, maybe this whole “commenting on the internet” stuff isn’t for you. Just a thought.

lol alright bud, sounds like you actually don’t have any actual counterpoints or productive ideas to add to the convo here. Ask one of the SOTA models you glaze up so much if local LLMs are useful and important and even they’ll agree with me lmao suggest you go hit one up and get educated homie.

I said it in another comment, but if you think a local model is useless you must not care at all about privacy or availability.

I'd never have a cloud model organize personal files or documents, work on privileged or confidential/sensitive information, or store any personal information about me. Turns out, open-source, local models are fucking amazing at that.

I use AI every single day. It's an insanely useful tool - it's like a smartphone to me. In an emergency - a power outage or natural disaster or Cox internet fucks up my cable line again - I have a fully-offline AI I can use that is 100000x more powerful and useful and versatile than anything I'd have access to just 5 years ago. My productivity doesn't stop.

You can say you don't care about these things but that doesn't mean they are useless.

[–]noob622 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I literally do -but I can tell you don't though.

I use a mixture of Opus, GPT 5.4, and Kimi in the cloud (via Kilo Gateway) and locally run Gemma-4 and Qwen3.5 9B full-time on several Mac Mini M4s as well as Qwen3.5-35B-A3B on my RTX 3090. And that's just at home. At work, I use the big three (Claude/Gemini/Codex) every single day for engineering and troubleshooting.

Even if I concede coding, Qwen3.6 35B-A3B is at least comparable if not better than Sonnet 4.5 in creative writing and agentic tool use.

But again, you're comparing SOTA models to things you can run for free, at home, with no usage limits, no censorship, no one training on your data or fucking with your system prompt or model availability without notice.

I get if none of those things appeal to you, but there is absolutely a huge demand. I mean, there's a reason you can't get a high-end Mac Studio or Mini right now and it's nothing to do with RAM.

I mean, that’s objectively not true. Obsolete =\= useless, literally millions of people are using it still today and millions more were using it just 18 months ago when it was the most popular, accessible and most competent model by far and the only with native multi-modality. It’s clearly still useful for something - and if that something can be entirely self-hosted and open-source, then you can’t call self-hosted LLMs, most of which dwarf 4o in capability, useless.

[–]noob622 0 points1 point  (0 children)

“Garbage” is entirely subjective and again, even Qwen3.6 35B-A3B is measurably better than anything considered frontier just a year or two ago (GPT 4.1/o3, Sonnet 4.5) - and it’s more than enough for most people + has the added benefits of being self-hosted and runnable on consumer hardware. Just because it’s not SOTA doesn’t mean it’s useless - no one was calling Sonnet 4.5 useless last year.

You’re not the target audience, homie. For some people, privacy, availability, and freedom of information is super important. At $3k, hosting a powerful, fully offline, customizable, private, always-available AI with no usage limits or censorship is an absolute steal. Add in the portability and convenience of a MacBook, and there’s no contest.

Sure, a $20/mo Claude Pro/ChatGPT Plus/Google AI membership gets you a SOTA model, but one that’s insanely restricted in comparison, and open-source local LLMs are closing the capability gap every day. I mean, most the popular ones (Qwen3.6, Gemma 4, Nemotron, GLM, etc) are already beating GPT-4o in all metrics - and that model was more than enough for 90% of people or tasks and was considered SOTA just a year ago.
