    there’s no real universal example. you need to show them that it is wrong about something you know they know, to avoid the Gell-Mann amnesia effect.

    I say this from experience. unfortunately some people are just average and have interests that are entirely subjective, like makeup trends or alternative medicine, and the effect that "always check the sources"has on those people is to make them distrust every source since nothing agrees with anything else on those topics.


  • brave also used it to scam people by taking tips for creators who weren’t on the platform. if the creator never signed up, they kept that money.

    and they had an adblocker that replaced ads with their own, making the browser money instead of the site.

    they have actively contributed to making the web worse. saying “at least they’re doing something” is like praising the hard work and entrepreneurial spirit of a mugger.





  • llamafile is not really “effective”. it’s incredibly impressive, but it’s the opposite of effective. it’s a collection of a bunch of hacks reliant on coincidences in OS design, and works by basically recompiling itself on the fly to work with different architectures.

    if you want effective, run llama.cpp compiled with actual optimizations for your platform.





  • hi, i’m a progressive swedish leftist.

    what happened was, the centre-right coalition that made the decision to take in immigrants had no integration plan. these people basically got sent off to places where there was already a higher percentage of immigrants, forming a sort of parallel society.

    However, this was about ten years ago, after most of these current gang criminals were born.

    the main issue is that due to a decision by a left-wing govt in the 90s, school and youth activity budgets are handled at a local level, meaning poorer areas get much lower quality education, and less recreation. it’s a textbook high-criminality recipe.
