General community for news/discussion in the UK.

Less serious posts should go in !casualuk@feddit.uk or !andfinally@feddit.uk
More serious politics should go in !uk_politics@feddit.uk.

Try not to spam the same link to multiple feddit.uk communities.
Pick the most appropriate, and put it there.

Posts should be related to UK-centric news, and should be either a link to a reputable source, or a text post on this community.

Opinion pieces are also allowed, provided they are not misleading/misrepresented/drivel, and have proper sources.

If you think "reputable news source" needs some definition, by all means start a meta thread.

Posts should be manually submitted, not by bot. Link titles should not be editorialised.

Disappointing comments will generally be left to fester in ratio, outright horrible comments will be removed.
Message the mods if you feel something really should be removed, or if a user seems to have a pattern of awful comments.

Don't you be bringing nuance into this.

If you used an LLM to find that mistyped variable name, you deserve to lose your job. You and your family must suffer.

If you are blind and you use a screen reader with some AI features, you should be fired and that tech needs to be taken from you. You must suffer. Should think twice before being blind, you disabled fuck.

Honestly we should just kill them, even. In a very painful and torturous way. AI bad.

There's a difference between using LLMs to edit text, provide ideas or give you information that you can double check because you have the subject matter experience. Relying on it as a substitute for skill when something important is at stake like someone's well being is reckless at best.

That's not what was said. What was said was anybody using it in any capacity for any job should be fired.

Which is obviously a very, very stupid take.

Yep I agree. Also I love your user name.
