Two-way federation is like MVP table stakes and the folks at Facebook could throw it together in a weekend hackathon if they felt like it.

I feel like people are actually less worried about election misinformation than before, because for misinformation to affect an election, you need an election that is able to be affected by information.

Praise be to our lord and savior the UEFI Forum, that we might not all meet such a dismal fate.

You're probably going to run into the problem that people didn't anticipate your strategy if you try to run a model on a GPU with way more memory than the host system. I'm not sure many execution frameworks can go straight from disk to GPU RAM. Also, storage speed for loading the model might be an issue on an SOC that boots off e.g. an SD card.

An eGPU dock should do CUDA just as well as an internal GPU, as far as I know. But you would need the drivers installed.

Sure

Like, each user is individually kicked off the PDS in reaction to some bad thing they did? Or labeling is reactive in that it labels bad stuff already posted, and each user has to pick labelers to listen to themselves?

I'm not sure if Bluesky's front-end defaults to using some particular labelers. I know there's some moderation going on for you as soon as you log in, done by someone.

But yes, each user has to choose whose moderation decisions they want to use, and they can't rely on everyone they can see also seeing exactly the same space they themselves are seeing. But I'm not sure it's possible or even desirable to get rid of the requirement/ability to choose your mods. I should be able to be in a community that has mods I trust, and the community chatting to itself and determining that so-and-so is a great mod who we should all listen to, and then all listening to them, sounds like a good idea to me.

Being able to see and talk to people who aren't in the same space I'm in might not be as good?

Smartphones are great. Apps are user-hostile malware. Online spaces are, in the majority, traps. If every time you drove downtown you ended up in a corporate police state designed to play you and your friends off each other and make you all miserable so you look at more advertisements for shampoo, you would conclude that getting in the car is bad for you.

No?

An anthropomorphic model of the software, wherein you can articulate things like "the software is making up packages", or "the software mistakenly thinks these packages ought to exist", is the right level of abstraction for usefully reasoning about software like this. Using that model, you can make predictions about what will happen when you run the software, and you can take actions that will lead to the outcomes you want occurring more often when you run the software.

If you try to explain what is going on without these concepts, you're left saying something like "the wrong token is being sampled because the probability of the right one is too low because of several thousand neural network weights being slightly off of where they would have to be to make the right one come out consistently". Which is true, but not useful.

The anthropomorphic approach suggests stuff like "yell at the software in all caps to only use python packages that really exist", and that sort of approach has been found to be effective in practice.

Echo chambers aren't that bad. I don't surround myself with people and things I like because the ones I don't like are going to hurt me, I do it because I don't like them and my life is too short to waste with their nonsense.

You can kick bigots off a Bluesky PDS.

But letting everyone label accounts and posts and run feeds of moderation advice is a lot quicker at booting someone from the virtual space than waiting around for someone to come and decide that yes, so-and-so really has broken BigPDSHost policy and shall be deleted. It's also a great way to find who you want to boot.

I thought "where the hell does Twitch keep coming up with these absurd sex-related things to ban?" and it turns out it's just this one lady and inventing them is her shtick and she's single-handedly keeping like five journalists employed.
