people on this platform will take your words out of context, twist, not mention your correction, because they just want to hate on what you work on, and insult you comfortably.

I'll keep posting here about my work but will not be interacting with anyone who wants to bash on my company.

It's pretty rich to be blocked for "not understand ethics" by a group of people who send me dms telling me to kill myself.

HF has done, and keeps doing, a lot of good in the AI ecosystem. I’ll die on this hill.

I'm a big believer in telling a tree by its fruit.

The community on this site has a reputation for being inclusive, progressive, and open minded.

Yet thousands of people have sent vile, evil death threats to people like Alpin, or Daniel, or HF.

The fruit here is absolutely fucking rotten.

Telling a HuggingFace researcher to kill themselves because your 280 character shitpost ended up in their scrape is bad actually. Truly psychotic behaviour. And yet half this site is still busy congratulating themselves for being the good guys.

You want to regulate AI? Try regulating your emotions.

The worst kind of toxicity is toxicity where the poster feels they have a moral imperative to be an asshole.

You're demonstrating that you're incapable of nuanced thinking outside of the token "Standard Response" of your clique and are just exacerbating echo chambers and stunting critical thinking.

Releasing: a dataset of two million Bluesky posts.

This dataset has been collected using Bluesky's API, and I hope it will be useful for all the researchers out there!

The replies to this suck. Sorry you had to deal with that and thank you for putting together an *open source dataset for the community*.

It's really sad to see that Bluesky is more than capable of being *more* toxic than twitter lol.

This should be deeply, deeply shameful in a city this rich.

No one should *ever* have to go through the dehumanizing experience of food insecurity in 2024. Least of which talented, driven people like postdocs.

Cato with his sword and Ishmael with the ocean both missed the much more effective solution: a library with a ladder so I can slide around on my Belle bullshit.

"skeets" is dumb. Just call them tweets. It's free real estate dot gif.

Entropy always wins eventually. Until then, we innovate
