I think hate speech is a separate case from porn, honestly. Porn is not ideal but it's not ideal as letting people mount hate against minorities, which imho is unacceptable
I guess the parent discussion is partly about whether the GNU/Linux desktop experience is getting popular, & if no one is using desktop mode in practice then this is not super informative, though good to know
$ python3 -c "print('clear messaging'); exit(1)"
clear messaging
$ python3 -c "raise ValueError('text that matters')"
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<string>", line 1, in <module>
ValueError: text that matters
and that story gets _a lot_ worse when some programs raise from within a "helper" module and you end up with 8 lines of Python junk to the one line of actual signal
It seems that way! I briefly experimented with it when it first came out, but never used it in any production code. I've never seen it used by anyone else, either.
I find it interesting that none of the voluminous python code I've had AI tools generate has ever had a walrus operator in it. Reflects the code they're trained on, I guess.
Arguably LLM with RL has already had its GPT-3 moment with DeepSeek R1 doing so well that it deleted a trillion $ + of stock value in big tech. If you see the GPT-3 moment as the moment where people definitely took notice, this was one of those moment.
I feel like your example shows the inverse of what you want. SSRI are actually great at helping the person develop healthy mechanisms (compared to GLP-1s), because they reduce the mood swings & negative thoughts, allowing the person to be more productive & be more involved in their therapy, in reading, journaling, doing sports, etc. It's just that it might take two or three years and not months, which is fine because SSRI also have much more limited side effects compared to GLP-1s.
GLP-1s don't do that directly.. but at least they might help people move more, and give them confidence to do more for their health instead of seeing it as a lost cause.
How are people so consistently wrong about GLP-1s? The side effects are minuscule in comparison to SSRI’s and the effects on improving habits are massive.
GLP-1 - Mild nausea, always temporary and in the beginning, easy to avoid by tapering dose. Extremely effective.
SSRI - about 10% chance of major sexual disfunction, often permanent, significant likelihood of sleep disturbance, majority get blunted emotions. Debatably effective.
As someone who's currently experiencing significant and crippling gastroparesis due to GLP-1's, being reductive about the side effects is not particularly helpful.
Lower your dose a little? Gastroparesis is a choice on these and only at high doses for long periods, you get signs weeks in advance and you choose to stay on a high dose. Myself never experienced it even when I had extremely strong effects (near 500 cals a day for a few weeks), but I did have some slowness, I lowered my dose and was fine.
It’s trivial to look this up which is funny - I double checked everything i said, so I know it’s true, and never claimed you’re making things up. But you are claiming I’m making things up while obviously not even doing basic research.
I don't know how overweight you are, but could you not just reduce the dose to get fewer side effects & still have reasonable weight loss? & Did you try other GLP-1s?
I've lost 120 lbs from my peak weight. I have about 130 to go before I'm comfortable with my weight. I was severely overweight, now I'm just very overweight.
I am at the second dose up from the starting dose (5 mg vs 2.5mg), and the side effects are about the same between the two doses. They didn't start out that way, but they ended up at about the same level of misery.
I tried Trulicity when it first came out. It was not as effective, but the side effects for me personally were less.
I'm on Mounjaro for type 2 diabetes, not weight loss, so my main focus is on how it treats my t2d. The weight loss is a nice side benefit.
