The last spam e-mail I've just received. This is funny:
"Hi
I came across Illumos Cafe online and wanted to reach out because we're working with other communities that are offering operating systems."
...ok...
"I’m currently working with a few communities on campaigns that are getting their sales teams meetings with warm leads every month. We’re targeting people who need operating systems using personalized email sequences. "
...WHAT???...
"If I could help you connect with potential clients like this, would that be helpful to you?"
...WHAT????...
LLMs, at their worst...

@stefano I'm surprised it didn't send you the raw boilerplate.

@stefano LLMs are so boring. I much prefer the spam from the early 2000s when it was gibberish and random sections of classic books ("A Tale of Two Cities" and "Wuthering Heights" to be specific) intersecting with each other.
It was at the very least creative and highly entertaining. It also demonstrated someone had thoroughly *too much* time on their hands. 🤣

@peteorrall sure. It was much more entertaining. Like when they used to send links to buy Viagra or Cialias "discounted" 😆

@stefano I like the illusion that Solaris is still marketed by powerful LLM salesmen.

@peteorrall @stefano I liked the Tumblr blog where they mixed the Puppet documentation with H.P. Lovecraft.

@julian@fietkau.social Yes, that's actually cited in the paper as supporting evidence: swearwords in a foreign language produce weaker physiological responses than in a native one, so it very likely is the same mechanism running in reverse. I personally avoid swearing in foreign languages because I can never be fully sure of the nuance, but I do notice people around me swear more freely in their second languages, which fits the pattern exactly.

@hongminhee I have often noticed that it's a lot easier to swear in a second language, because the emotional hurdle is lower. I've always considered that it could be because I wasn't raised in it. Maybe it's a related mechanism.

Oggi ho fatto una riunione con un collega che vive a Dubai.
Mi ha raccontato che 2-3 volte al giorno ricevono un messaggio sul telefonino che gli chiede di andare nei rifugi, anche di notte.
Sentono tutto il giorno jet ed elicotteri che volano sopra di loro per andare a intercettare droni e missili iraniani (intercettarli usando i sistemi missilistici costa troppo). Fino ad ora ne hanno intercettati più di 1500 (pensavo ne avessero lanciati meno).
Leggere certe cose sui giornali, o sentirle nei podcast, fa un certo effetto ma sentirsele raccontare da uno che ci si trova in mezzo fa proprio paura.
