I’m a bit confused by the recent adoption in saying “unalive” instead of “suicide”, I’m genuinely not sure what it accomplishes. They sound similar and mean the same thing.

At least on TikTok "unalive" is used as a replacement for "kill" in a way to circumvent the automatic language detection from banning/quarantining your content.

I guess Short Circuit is too old for people to be using disassemble?

I'm not sure those words mean the same thing.

A rock is most definitely 'unalive', but it didn't commit suicide, nor was it murdered.

As technologists we're tuned the idea that if you throw enough code at a problem it can be solved, but currently it's very clear that the content filtering 'AI's that are out there on the big platforms are not very good at their jobs.
