I'll hopefully get to this later tonight. Thanks 🙏
What is most troubling to me is not anything that Duncan or anyone else has said, but the stuff that you have said in the apparent belief that other people would say, "Oh, yeah, that's completely exculpatory."
I wanted very badly to believe that this was a huge misunderstanding but your own beliefs and behaviors, stated in your own words, are concerning to me.
How does dropping off covid tests lead to Ruchika calling the police on you? It feels like I'm missing something here.
Someone's resolving comments that they shouldn't be. I have to revoke permissions. This is so annoying. Got a better idea?
You said in another thread that your IRL friends have not asked you clarifying questions about what's going on. This style of response might be why. You were asked why you sent this message, and instead of answering the question, or even denying its premise directly, you threw an evidence-free smokebomb. If you want people in your life to ask questions and give you feedback, you have to show them you will answer questions directly and honestly, show them you'll take critical feedback well. Otherwise, they'll quickly decide to just avoid you.
I recognize they are anonymous but I am capable of using inferences, textual clues, and context to make a reasonable guess. Can you affirmatively say “I did not write that message”? That’s literally all I care about here.
(the answer, for my local friends, is ZERO.)
I feel like you’re not hearing me. I haven’t heard things through the grapevine. I’ve read the full Google doc from Duncan and your recent social media posts. I feel like I have just about all of the context I could possibly have. Do you think it is absolutely impossible someone could read the Facebook messages and conclude that you are in the wrong here? Which is more likely, that there is a massive conspiracy against you or that people genuinely disagree?
ask questions
People have! Like “klob you seem like you’re making a lot of major life decisions re...
As I do with most people that I might want to be friends with, because I care about my own safety and that of the people I have over.
... and then you falsely accuse them in public of things which they are completely innocent of, and refuse to retract or apologize.
(And before you DARVO, the difference between that and what's happening to you here is that here, the evidence shows you to be undeniably in the wrong.)
Access fixed - anyone with the link should now be able to both see comments & comment, too. Thanks for informing me.
Could you define what you mean here by counterfactual impact?
My knowledge of the word counterfactual comes mainly from the blockchain world, where we use it in the form of "a person could do x at any time, and we wouldn't be able to stop them, therefore x is counterfactually already true or has counterfactually already occured"
Please excuse my lack of knowledge here, but if we know all of the vectors for the tokens in the cl100k_base
model, why can't we then create the embedding matrix? Is the embedding matrix not simply all of these rows?
I deem the user "Conor Moreton" sus.
