I don't know if I'm too long-winded or I comment too much or both. Good to know I'm in the top 400 regardless.

I think the word for us is "terminally online" :)

    I wonder how much you and I singularly contribute to the training data being used for tech-focused AI bots now; presumably they're training on software-people-websites?

    • I'm quite sure we're all in the training data. The biggest downside is that I keep getting accused of being an AI! I will write a long, well reasoned comment, and then get messages to not post AI slop.

      Well I can't help it if my writing trained the AIs in the first place! We all did. That's why we all sound like AI!
