Good news everyone!

Quick reminder that all futurama episodes are available for free on archive.

FWIW It's not clear cut if AI generated data feeding back into further training reduces accuracy, or is generally harmful.

Multiple papers have shown that generated images by high quality diffusion models with a proportion of real images in mix (30-50%) improve the adversarial robustness of the models. Similiar things might apply to language modeling.

What are you going to do differently than /r/India mods?

I used to get my posts and comments deleted citing some weird rules which are open to interpretations. It's run like a dictatorship.

I think we should've vote on how the comments should be moderated.

It's just not possible for a community to survive by allowing anything and everything. It's very easy to get people rallied by spreading fake information especially those which are false in subtle manners and are suggestive of ill will.

But more importantly, mods have huge power in shaping the direction of the discord.

For example /r/India and /r/IndiaSpeaks are opposite leaning in most of the type of posts that are discussed and both sides feel disgusted with the other. The only difference between them is the moderation and the kind of posts that are allowed, correct me if I'm wrong.

I'd hope for a community that is:

1. Scientifically oriented.
2. Rationally minded.
3. Wants to grow at individual level and at community level holistically. Ranging from intellectual growth to personality and behaviour improvement, with aim to increase life satisfaction.
4. Open to all ideas without belittling those of different opinion. At the same time if enough evidence is present, support the thesis with confidence.
5. Has healthy amount of self doubt and doesn't judge absolutely unless supported by hard facts.

I'd suggest the non-goals be:

1. To be so India specific that things which aren't directly related to India gets deleted even if the community is interested in discussing it.
2. Put rules above the wishes of community. For example, deleting a post because it's somewhat related to a megathread that was posted a day back.
3. Allow everything in the name of free speech. Facts and evidence (data) win over opinion.
4. Be a link aggregation community rather than discourse oriented community. (E.g., Titles should encourage discussion and it should be OKAY have title be different from the article title.)

Indians best identify with the other Indians, hence my choice of posting these ideas on here.

It helped detect the first nano hertz gravitational waves https://indianexpress.com/article/cities/pune/punes-gmrt-first-indian-facility-detect-gravitational-waves-8692416/lite/ which needs high sensitivity, probably originated from merger of two super massive blackholes.

Thank you for sharing your insights. It's good to hear a different perspective.

What I believe is that these studies tell you the general behaviour of people and need not necessarily apply to all of us.

If focusing on positive outcomes helps you, may be it's because your baseline is to be on the opposite end by default in a way that being extremely positive helps you be balanced? Just a hypothesis.

Personally, I get anxious if I try to suppress negative thoughts and focus only on positives, instead I try to use the Buddhist technique of "The Glass Is Already Broken" which helps me be calm and disciplined.

I want to like kbin.social but the mobile website's UI isn't there yet. It's unintuitive and frustrating at times, I can't find logout button for instance.

Very well written. Thank you!

Which one is your favourite? Aryabhatta being from Nalanda makes it my automatic choice.

Good point but the community I like may be on another instance which would prevent similar community to grown elsewhere. If I get invested in it I run the risk of losing access to it.

Now that you mention it, I do face the problem of being in my head too much while conversing. That often leads to problems. I guess I just need more practice controlling it like you said.

Why does Lemmy make it look harder than it is? It's not a massive load compared to what modern servers and applications are designed to handle.

I couldn't sign up on beehaw and lemmy.ml after multiple tries. It feels worse than a simple centralised platform one can build in a month.

Is there alternative to reddit for people like me who don't need this kind of decentralisation (Lemmy feels like centralisation, just multiple number of it, if any instance can cut off like this.) but likes the (text heavy)interface of Lemmy?
