I'm from Canada. Being cold is not an issue for me. What are you doing outside?

I refreshed this page and this message popped up. Have a hug on me... you deserve one! I hope whatever prompted you to say this doesn't need more than a virtual hug from a stranger.

I never let a single post, without context of that person's life or of their circumstances when they wrote that post, from a person I have never met, define them for me. For example, as distasteful as I find it, I am not letting this singular post of yours define who you are to me.

I'm still trying to understand the value added by this thing. You're trying to outsource tasks that require many humans to participate in e.g. a survey. I'm sure MTurk has safety measures, but it's not hard to imagine bad actors taking advantage of the loopholes that a system like this...

Just... try being nicer to other folks. No smugness, no trying to one up other people. Not sure what else to say. I am legitimately not angry with you. I just don't understand your attitude.

I think you might have been reading 'page after page after page of discussion genAI has had on these boards' then wrapping that discussion around your own personal biases. If someone contradicts the opinions that one has formed, a person tends to react in the way that you have. It's...

I think the main point here is per encounter abilities, of which I am in favour.
