Yes, I only respect journalists who never update their opinions or recommendations given new information. Everyone needs to use psychic foresight to determine the best takes and then never ever change them. Meta was always exactly as bad as it is today. /s

Yeah, I edited the post to call that out specifically

That’s not what the article is about. Stack Overflow has kept content that Luigi created up, but removed his username, in violation of Creative Commons. Edited the post to make that more clear.

Preemptive compliance.

Do you have other examples? Because the article gave an example of a similar account that was not anonynized like this. Sure, accounts are often taken down, but the content isn’t left up.

404 Media has done a lot of excellent reporting on this: https://www.404media.co/facebooks-ai-spam-isnt-the-dead-internet-its-the-zombie-internet/ https://www.404media.co/facebook-is-being-overrun-with-stolen-ai-generated-images-that-people-think-are-real/ https://www.404media.co/where-facebooks-ai-slop-comes-from/

Losing consciousness for any reason = ER. A friend passed out during dinner and we weren’t sure what to do, so we called the triage nurse and they were like “ER now!” (He was fine, they never figured out what happened and it’s never happened again, but it’s definitely stayed with me.)
