Hi, I’m an unimtentional moderate centrist! I don’t have an ideology, only views! My overton window is a peephole! Kamala is a far leftist! Trump is orange! People should stop treating politics like team sports and join the non team sports tribe like me! Political correctness gone mad! Let me tell you about Chesterton’s fence! Everyone’s sheeple except my flock! Say it with me: I’m an independent thinker!
Artificial Intelligence is the future of climate resilient design in the same way that asian pseudo-medicinal ED treatments are the future of the white rhinoceros.
Wow, farriers are going crazy with these modern horseshoe designs!
Above: a single axis scatter plot. The ends of the axis are labeled “Left” and “Right”. Data points are distributed similarly to normal distribution, the center being more concentrated than the extremes. Caption: “What people think the political spectrum is vs What it actually is”.
Below: A two-dimensional scatter plot. The ends of the horizontal axis are labeled “Left” and “Right” and the vertical axis is labeled “Independent Thought” at the top and “Groupthink” at the bottom. The data points are evenly distributed inside a bell curve shape, with the peak of the hump at Independent Thought and between Left and Right, and the wide bottom of the bell spanning the whole Left-Right axis at maximum Groupthink.
Data points near the top of the bell (Independent-Center) labeled ‘“Un-intentional moderates” (from Paul Graham’s The Two Kinds of Moderate)’. [Original image uses double quotes around the term Un-intentional moderates and single quotes around the title of Paul Graham’s shitpost.]
Data points at the bottom center of the bell (Groupthink-Center) labeled “Intentional moderates”.
In the bottom corner a watermark crediting the image to “@shw1nm”.
I love the implication that being an independent thinker means agreeing with both the majority and other independent thinkers.
Why does NaNoWriMo need a nonprofit anyway? What’s next, No Nut November LLC?
Taking the “insult to life itself” to a whole another level.
I didn’t mean I expected it to be pro-crypto, just a little surprised it actually namedropped NFTs and blockchain at all.
A recent chapter of one of the official Touhou Project manga had a jab at crypto schemes. This isn’t one of the works of art I expected to so explicitly dunk on these unscrupulous scams, but I welcome it all the more for that.
Not that you, under any circumstances, “have to hand it to” alleged convicted assaulter Shädman, but at least he drew his immature shock porn using his own mid artistic skills.

OpenAI might as well just be Microsoft’s AI branch.
Using an LLM to shit out grammar for an old school symbolic language model is a poetic ouroboros of AI circlejerking.
If only it were him that suffered from his projections and not everyone else.
I like the video, but I’m a little bothered that she misattributes su3su2u1’s critique to Dan Luu, who makes it very clear he did not write it:
These are archived from the now defunct su3su2u1 tumblr. Since there was some controversy over su3su2u1’s identity, I’ll note that I am not su3su2u1 and that hosting this material is neither an endorsement nor a sign of agreement.

Wow, look at that sass. Are you doing anything later tonight? 'Cause I doubt you’ll be posting here.
Very fine people at YouGenics. They sponsor our karting team, the Race Scientists.
