Need to let loose a primal scream without collecting footnotes first? Have a sneer percolating in your system but not enough time/energy to make a whole post about it? Go forth and be mid: Welcome to the Stubsack, your first port of call for learning fresh Awful youāll near-instantly regret.
Any awful.systems sub may be subsneered in this subthread, techtakes or no.
If your sneer seems higher quality than you thought, feel free to cutānāpaste it into its own post ā thereās no quota for posting and the bar really isnāt that high.
The post Xitter web has spawned soo many āesotericā right wing freaks, but thereās no appropriate sneer-space for them.

Just something I found in the wild (r/machine learning): Please point me in the right direction for further exploring my line of thinking in AI alignment
you donāt say
Alignment? Well, of course it depends on your organizationās style guide but if youāre using TensorFlow or PyTorch in Python, I recommend following PEP-8, which specifies four spaces per indent level andā¦
Wait, youāre not working in AI the what are you even asking for?
Good sign of a crank is wanting to solve the biggest problem in the field (or more like several fields) with this one easy trick. Amazing others are now following yuds lead.
I think in this case the crankery is wanting to solve a problem that doesnāt even exist, i.e. āhow to make sure the machine god is not evilā
