@RickiTarr Don't worry, just be very demure and very mindful and you'll be fine.

I know I'm getting older, because people's conversations sound like this: -
This evening's #SomethingPositive photo is of a small part of Shwedagon Pagoda in #Yangon #Myanmar ( #Burma). It gives me a glimpse of what a peaceful world should be like.This evening's #SomethingPositive photo is of a small part of Shwedagon Pagoda in #Yangon #Myanmar ( #Burma).

I’ve been thinking about the deeper meaning of the effort to bring in so many voices at the Democratic National Convention.@paul_ipv6 @heidilifeldman It's a commendable goal, and I think she's done an excellent job walking the tightrope. I'm just hoping she doesn't drag the party further to the right in the process.

Was talking to someone about #BlueSky the other day, and how they apparently used some sort of #AI for #moderation.@mekkaokereke @Raccoon I absolutely agree. The lack of context is why Meta has such a huge false positive problem. Even their human reviewers don't get any larger context about relationships and adjacent behavior. And their human reviewers are almost always from completely different cultures, so they don't get that context either. Then throw in their move to using translation rather than native language speakers...
And to truly understand context, you have to understanding punching up vs. punching down. Trying selling that in an algorithm.
I think ML has a role. Especially for flagging potential issues before they are human-reported. But the actual decision has to be made by a human who has all the context. That doesn't scale in monolithic social networks. I'm not sure it scales in distributed ones either, but it has to be the goal.

Forget Vance. It’s •Trump• the Republicans should be talking about replacing.@inthehands The co-chair of the committee that makes those decisions is Lara Trump. They removed anyone not “loyal” from it. Short of dying from a stroke brought on by being asked a question by an uppity Black woman (yes, that’s sarcasm), I don’t see how that happens.
