arcatech··on AI-enhanced development makes me more ambitious with my projects
In general we would like developers/engineers to know as much as possible about the things they're engineering. ChatGPT-based development encourages the opposite.
arcatech··on Grand jury votes to indict Donald Trump
He’s the first former President to be indicted. There’s no way for him to not be relevant.
arcatech··on Show HN: Customizable, embeddable Chat GPT based on your own documents
I wish people were a little more hesitant to send every single one of their thoughts and documents to OpenAI.

arcatech··on Hugging Face and AWS partner to make AI more accessible
Funny how both OpenAI and now Hugging Face promise “openness” for their AI tools so that they’re “accessible to everyone” and then both partner with big tech companies who are trying to control and monetize as much as they can.

arcatech··on Ask HN: What RSS Reader do you use in 2022?
I happen to be using my own. I wrote my website from scratch in Go and decided to build a RSS reader into it. Anyone can view the list of articles I’m reading at https://dwayne.xyz/reader
arcatech··on Is Moving to Mastodon Ethical?
You don’t get how some people might care about communities other than their own?
arcatech··on Ask HN: Should HN ban ChatGPT/generated responses?
This post is about ChatGPT responses. The fact that you're a human pasting output from ChatGPT doesn't change the argument at all.

arcatech··on The AT Protocol
It’s a waitlist for the first app, not the protocol itself.
arcatech··on Mastodon.technology Shutdown
Yup. Host a single-user instance.
arcatech··on Mastodon.technology Shutdown
But it’s federated. You can have an invite only network that still federated with the rest of the network.
arcatech··on Mastodon.technology Shutdown
Weren’t you complaining about mastodon having “no users” in the last big discussion about it here? Do you have some kind of personal issue with the protocol?

There are plenty of people using it. It has not “failed”.

arcatech··on YouTube’s ‘dislike’ barely works according to new study on recommendations
The article is claiming that that doesn't actually do very much.
arcatech··on Kiwi Farms is down across all domains as DDoS-Guard terminates service
I ended up conflating hosting and promoting which wasn't clear enough. You would be definitely be hosting hate speech, which is essentially promoting it (by using the internet to make that speech more accessible to others than it would be otherwise).

The alternative is to accept that moderation is NECESSARY for online communities (or else spam and hate speech will take up a huge part of the content and suddenly you'll realize you're essentially promoting this content afterall) and moderation will always look like the opposite of "free speech".

arcatech··on Kiwi Farms is down across all domains as DDoS-Guard terminates service
Does it matter? That's up to the people hosting the content right?
arcatech··on Kiwi Farms is down across all domains as DDoS-Guard terminates service
Hate speech is clearly defined in various laws against the concept. So it’s not really up to taste. Most popular services attempt to remove hate speech, but doesn’t look like KF does.

Btw, a forum dedicated to the principle and culture of free speech would absolutely (by definition) be promoting/hosting hate speech.

arcatech··on Mastodon still can’t replace Twitter
Public conversations is part of the point of social media.
arcatech··on Kiwi Farms is down across all domains as DDoS-Guard terminates service
The person you’re responding to said “designed to promote hate speech”. Your examples don’t sound like that.
