But usually when I’m interested in a series I watch the episodes of each season in a random order,
Does that usually work the first time through?
While the episodes for Mandalorian are self contained, they do build on each other and watching them randomly is gonna be a bit confusing for the background story.
I'm curious how an individual is supposed to make things better by slamming their head against a double standard. The frustration comes from attempting something and being repeatedly shut down.
From personal experience, speaking with a therapist doesn't keep people in general from negatively reacting to me trying to solicit support. "Don't be frustrated" isn't a solution. Best case is coming to grips with a shitty double standard, which helps people who are actually self destructive because of it, sure.
But a lot of us are just sick of it and want to have the existence ofnthe double standard acknowledged without being told how women have it worse. Both (all) genders suffer from double standards!
They do it this way in case the data changed, similar to how a person would be viewing the current site. The training was for the basic understanding, the real time scraping is to account for changes.
It is also horribly inefficient and works like a small scale DDOS attack.
The AI doesn't just do a web search and display a page, in grabs the search results and scrapes multiple pages far faster than a person could.
It doesn't matter whether a human initiated it when the load on the website is far, far higher and more intrusive in a shorter period of time with AI compared to a human doing a web search and reading the cobtent themselves.
Yeah, we have all kinds of labels that are not arbitrary, but also also not 100% accurate in all cases. They only tend to be a problem when people try to treat them as absolutes.
But a user initiated operation isn’t the same as a bot.
Oh fuck off with that AI company propaganda.
The AI companies already overwhelmed sites to get training data and are repeating their shitty scraping practices when users interact with their AI. It's the same fucking thing.
Web crawlers for search engines don't scrape pages every time a user searches like AI does. Both web crawlers and scrapers are bots, and how a human initiates their operation, scheduled or not, doesn't matter as much as the fact that they do things very differently and only one of the two respects robots.txt.
Or find a more efficient way to manage data, since their current approach is basically DDOSing the internet for training data and also for responding to user interactions.
AI crawlers tend to overwhelm websites by doing the least efficient scraping of data possible, basically DDOSing a huge portion of the internet. Perplexity already scraped the net for training data and is now hammering it inefficiently for searches.
Cloudflare is just trying to keep the bots from overwhelming everything.
Look, it was exhausting explaining a similar situation in the past and we just don't feel like going through the explanation phase right after dealing with the bad thing.
