We need more money to prevent this. Give us dem $$$$

Maybe we just can’t count ''r’s properly and it is our fault!

Allow me to do what feminists do - including in this very thread:

“Women can’t take it”

So now you’re backtracking and disagreeing that it isn’t because girl’s brains develop faster, but because the education system is actually better for girls than boys? Oh, right, so why didn’t you write that in the first place.

I suspect feminist messaging appeals to women because they are sick of the patriarchy, not because they are programmed by marketing agencies. The fuck are you on about.

Lol. Aren’t you a good feminist. Throwing tired phrases around like “they are sick of the patriarchy”, yawn. You’re the sexist version of anti-vaxxers.

I think you’re right that the messaging of companies trying to appear feminist in their communications while nevertheless usually being run almost exclusively by men is a huge part of the source material that produces the bias here.

Lol, that isn’t what I wrote - again, it’s what your distorted view of the world understands. Of course, women work in such companies and also approve such messages to meet sales. Shock. But yawn, again, from your pov, it’s the men’s fault because that opinion justifies your hatred of men - it’s them, not me.

That said, I think you’re right that the messaging of companies trying to appear feminist in their communications while nevertheless usually being run almost exclusively by men is a huge part of the source material that produces the bias here. I’m not sure we disagree much in substance, but I suspect we come from different starting points in how we see gender dynamics in society.

At least where I’m from it’s pretty well known that girls outperform boys in school, probably because their brains develop slightly faster in some ways useful to perform in a class room.

At least where I’m from, it’s pretty well know that the education system is better suited to girls than boys because it badly needs a reform, and that studies show that separating boys and girls greatly improves the attainment of boys whilst also making modest improvement for girls. It’s as if combining boys and girls in the name of politically-correct inclusion actually had a detrimental effect on the actual outcome of schooling.

This could give women a head start and very well lead to them on average performing better in work life, until they are forced to choose between careers and families while they partners continue to advance their careers at full speed not worrying about being pregnant.

To paraphrase this: women can get pregnant and then can’t work and it’s the man’s fault. I thinks someone’s watched too much Handmaid’s Tale

It sure isn’t the extreme and aggressive pandering to feminism that gives women a “head start” just because they’re women and not because they’re the best for the job (such as all the women-only startups, the women-only software teams, the grants given to the above because they’re women-only), but because they’re better educated, right?

we should stop pretending language models make intelligent considerations about anything.

LLMs trained on the texts we produce create the opposite bias of what we observe in society

So you’re actually stating that LLMs are making dumb decisions by recommending women over men. And they’re your observations, from your model of the world, framed as you want. What I observe in society is a huge increase in the amount of advertising aimed at women with a feminist message because women are being programmed to flock to such messages (to buy products), whilst ironically conditioning them and giving them entitlement to claim anything they want, because, they’re women.

Given the actual reality, this shows how extreme the bias against men in current literature really is and it isn’t surprising that LLMs are recommending women over men given all the noise about how women are vastly superior to men.

If I were a woman concerned about equality, I think I’d be having an epiphany about now, and using this as an example of how bad things are and that they need to change.

Handpicks poor ‘studies’ to justify personal belief that women are better.

Thinking...
Alright, so I'm trying to figure out how many 'r's are in the word "strawberry." Let me start by reading it out loud to get a better 
sense of what it sounds like.

S-T-R-A-W-B-E-R-R-Y

Okay, let's break this down letter by letter. The first letter is S, then T, R, A, W, B, E, and two R's at the end.

So far, I've got one 'R' in the third position after S-T- and before A-W-B-E-R-R-Y.

Wait a minute, there are two R's in "strawberry." So that means there are two instances of the letter 'r' in the word. Is that all?

Let me double-check to make sure I'm not missing any other 'r's. Scanning through each letter again:

1. S - No
2. T - No
3. R - Yes, one R here.
4. A - No
5. W - No
6. B - No
7. E - No
8. R - Second R
9. R - Third R

Wait, am I counting correctly? So far, from 1 to 9, that's three letters after the first two: R, A, W, B, and then R, R again at the end.

Hold on, maybe I should visualize it like this:

S T R A W B E R R Y

So positions:
1. S
2. T
3. R (position 3)
4. A
5. W
6. B
7. E
8. R (position 8)
9. R (position 9)

And then the word ends with 'Y.'

Hmm, so only two 'R's in total? Let me confirm:

Looking back: positions 3 and 8 and 9.

Wait, that makes three 'R's. Did I miss one?

Hold on, maybe I need to write it out clearly to visualize better:

S T R A W B E R R Y

Counting each 'R':

- After S (position 2): No
- After T (position 3): Yes, first R
- After A (position 4): No
- After W (position 5): No
- After B (position 6): No
- After E (position 7): No
- After R (position 8): Second R
- After R (position 9): Third R
- After Y (position 10): No

So that's three 'R's in total. Did I count right? Maybe I should write it down step by step to ensure accuracy.

Alternatively, maybe there are only two 'R's because the 'Y' is considered separate from the R. But logically, even if Y has a vowel 
sound, 'r' still counts separately unless specified otherwise.

Wait, actually, in English letters, 'Y' isn't really pronounced like an 'R.' It sounds more like a consonant. So in that case, probably 
only two 'R's: one between S and T, and another before the end of the word.

But I'm still confused because when I count, I sometimes make mistakes. Maybe using an alphabet list or a counting tool would help.

Let me write down each letter with its position:

1. S
2. T
3. R (count 1)
4. A
5. W
6. B
7. E
8. R (count 2)
9. R (count 3)
10. Y

So that's three 'R's in total.

Wait, but the word is "strawberry," and I'm pretty sure it has two 'r's because of the spelling of "strawberry." Maybe the counting 
matches that.

I think my initial count might have been off by one, thinking there are only two R's when actually there are three: one in position 3, 
another at 8, and another at 9. But given that Y isn't pronounced like an 'R,' it's more accurate to say there are two 'r's.

Hmm, maybe I need to consider the pronunciation of each letter as well. Even though 'Y' is a consonant, sometimes people might play 
around with silent letters or other pronunciation rules. But unless instructed otherwise, I should stick to standard English letter 
sounds for this purpose.

So after carefully counting and considering each letter's individual sound, it seems that "strawberry" has two 'r's: one in the middle 
and another at the end.
...done thinking.

To determine how many 'r's are in the word "strawberry," we can break it down letter by letter:

1. **S** - No
2. **T** - No
3. **R** (count 1)
4. **A** - No
5. **W** - No
6. **B** - No
7. **E** - No
8. **R** (count 2)
9. **R** (count 3)
10. **Y** - No

However, considering the pronunciation of each letter and standard English rules, even though 'Y' is a consonant, it's more accurate to 
say that "strawberry" contains only two 'r's: one in position 3 and another at position 9.

Final Answer: There are two 'r's in the word "strawberry."

time for them to set sail to the wild seas again!

and assuming that improvement doesn’t plateau, ever,

Because so much money has been thrown at it, for startups, for power generation, for investors, that this is little more than marketing for retail investors to buy into.

when will they be able to tell me how many 'r’s are in ‘strawberry’ in under 1s?

Yeah I agree of sorts and people have the right to be offended so I prefer looser moderation over the absolute otherwise there’s no difference between those groups that preach ‘everything inclusive (except what we don’t like)’ and those who are clearly extreme and have their own biases. The irony of freespeech is you’re going to hear things you don’t agree with, and that’s fine.

…And under the current model, the egos of mods get crazy big as they see their community army grow bigger and they can shape it how they want, even stackoverflow suffered and developers left in droves long before LLM took its place.

I do miss the original imageboards though that used sage and was a community driven effort into moderation.

And to want to access my calendars to book appointments for flights I can’t afford

You see “market” and think capitalism. By market, I meant, market-share. More users of apple products than android. So if a developer wanted greater reach…

apple is the majority of the market, no? so if e.g. a company wanted to get a product out for a client asap, apple would be the market to aim for.

which is exactly what this whole ‘meltdown’ frame for the pr hints at. republicans know how to use publicity stunts to get what they want.

which is great for necessitating the need to give absolute militant power to police forces. It’s like… the PR of him having a ‘meltdown’ is for a reason or something.

lol at this

lol, they’ll have no customers! ISPs used to send ‘warning’ letters to customers in England but that’s all.
