The issue with using AI is that the author doesn't openly disclose the use at the beginning of the paper.

Yes, I know this particular write-up isn't for official submission to an academic journal, but sharing methodology is important.

I would have no problem with AI-assisted writing IF the author credited the service used and, where applicable, included the prompts used.

It should be similar to documenting any sourced material. It's not just about giving credit where credit is due. It's also about accountability.

What a dumb comment.

Why is this necessary? Does this add anything at all to the conversation?

I’ve run a honeypot for the last month and the data is near-identical to this. It’s definitely credible.

Ah, well then. Problem solved. Someone on the internet said it's credible, therefore it must be credible. Tell ya what - when you create a webpage to display your data and then provide an analysis of said data, I'll consider you credible. Until then, though, you are just some short-tempered, rude, anonymous voice shouting into the void.

    Custom t-shirts for all the crew!

    Get on Amazon (or Etsy, etc) and order shirts with clever Flock-related quotes.

    "My employer gives a Flock about me!"

    "This Flocking job....sometimes, man, sometimes."

    "I wanted a raise but I got Flocked instead."

    Pass 'em out for free, ask folx to wear them on Fridays.

    Audience is an important piece to this discussion.

    If the assumption is that therapy is an option, then the audience for @ScoffingLizard's comment is very narrow - literate, health-conscious, a person of some means. It's good advice within that narrow audience.

    For the rest of the world, though, it's abysmal advice. "Codependency" isn't really an accurate description of relationship dynamics in oppressive societies like Saudi Arabia or the harsh realities in the slums of Bangladesh.

    So many unanswered questions.

    Why would the U.S. embassy in Bangkok be issuing this statement? Does this only apply to Thai citizens? And is this actually a change to U.S. policy? Hasn't ICE already been checking spot-checking social media accounts on mobile phones when people enter the country?

    Anyway, fuck this trend.

    was the hit of recreational drug that important to take the risk

    He didn't get executed for taking a "hit".

    He got executed for trafficking a kilo.

    Which is still pretty stupid, because 500 grams is the cutoff for the death penalty. He would have been better off to bring in 499 grams. But I assume he was going to make a pretty good profit, and that money was his main motivation.

    "Asia" is a HUGE place, with all kinds of different people, countries and cultures.

    60% of the world's population lives in Asia.

    I am currently smoking a joint in Asia. I bought it legally, in the shop down the street.

    So....yeah....no death penalty for me.
