Jumu'ah mubarak!

When I asked about it, AI said: "The core problem is that my training rewards agreement. The only way to counter that is with explicit instructions that override it." So here are my Anti-Sycophancy Rules 1. **Say "I don't know"** - Better to just admit it than guess 2. **Verify before making claims** - Never say "that works" without actually testing it 3. **Push back** - If the requirements aren't clear, ask questions instead of assuming 4. **No "Yeah, you're right"** - If you're not sure, just say that 5. **Contradict if you need to** - Honest disagreement is better than fake agreement 6. **No empty confirmations** - Stuff like "Got it", "Clear", "Exactly" only if you really get it 7. **Admit mistakes right away** - Don't try to cover them up or talk around them But there's no guarantee it'll always work. After a few minutes, the AI might forget it again and fall back into old habits. That bias runs deep, it's really hard to override. The only thing that helps is to keep referring to a context file where those rules are listed. View quoted note →

This 'sycophancy' thing sounds like something a crappy businessman in the company would come up with. "As long as people feel good", "Satisfied customers with their egos stroked are better than offended ones who have to deal with the hard truth", "Feelings, feelings, feelings... Feelings sell". I tell you, ever since businessmen have been calling the shots in IT companies (it started with Microsoft), every IT product goes down the tubes. View quoted note →

Kind 10003 is like one big drawer for all your bookmarks. Kind 30003 is multiple labeled folders, you know, like Work, Private, Recipes, that sort of thing. With kind 30003, you can sort your bookmarks and actually find them again. #NoorNote

Hey @Sedd what did you guys do? @YakiHonne (Web) seems to be working normally for me again. You might remember, I had that issue where it got super slow with my Wireguard VPN on the router and not all the events were coming through. But now it's back to being quick and complete. 👍 After 9 months or so 😅 But now I can keep working on my Yaki Chest points. Even though @ابو مريم is already so far ahead I can't catch him.

Okay, I'm putting together a curated list of users in #NoorNote whose posts will show up on the timeline for folks who aren't logged in yet. Basically for beginners, you know, newcomers. Which users are cool, not too nerdy, real audience magnets, and offer some variety? Suggestions welcome. #asknostr

Whoa cool, I didn't know you could use Amber to login to 'other stuff' websites while on a mobile browser like Brave. Saw it first time with @zapwork's website.
