The hype should go the other way. Instead of bigger and bigger models that do more and more - have smaller models that are just as effective. Get them onto personal computers; get them onto phones; get them onto Arduino minis that cost $20 - and then have those models be as good as the big LLMs and Image gen programs.

Wow, they are buying ads but haven’t made any new content since 2012?. Must be a desert bus for hope promotion.

Lister: “Rimmer, death isn’t the handicap it used to be in the olden days. It doesn’t screw your career up like it used to.”

Rimmer: “That’s what they say, Lister, but if you had two people coming for a job and one of them was dead, which one would you pick?”

Lister “It depends which is better qualified.”

Rimmer “Bullpats. When was the last time you saw a dead newsreader?”

Lister “Channel 27 had a hologram reading the news.”

Rimmer “Oh. Groovy, funky Channel 27. Big smegging deal. You livies hate us deadies.”

With the different distros of Linux, do different things support different distros? Like Zoom is support on Arch but not Mint, and Steam is supported in Mint but not Arch; or if an app supports Linux, it is on all distros? And if there is differences, do you have different partitions for different types of Linux?

Time is running for Harris to break with Biden ON ANYTHING. You saw a jump in poll numbers between Biden and Harris because people thought she would be different. Every interview she gives saying “I am the status quo” pushes her numbers back to Biden.

If anyone can survive the AI text apocalypse, it is wikipedia. They have been fending off and regulating article writing bots since someone coded up a US town article writer from the 2000 census (not the 2010 or 2020 census, the 2000 census. This bot was writing wikipedia articles in 2003)

In a statical job applying world, if everyone had a ln equal chance of landing a job (which isn’t the case, but it makes the math easier), you would, on average, have to apply to as many positions as the average number of applicants that apply to the positions your are applying to.

So if each TRUE job opening has 10 people apply to it, you have to apply to 10 jobs (plus a bunch of false postings) to get a job.

If each true job opening has 10,000 people apply to it, you have to apply to 10,000.

Less of a quip, more of a UN definition.

When a non-state actor does it, it is terrorism. When a state actor does it, it is called war crimes.

Because they never thought people would attack it. When it was built, attacks were bombs on busses, not hypersonic missles shot from Iran.

CS probably has some sort of skin money-laundering bots in it. I would see it more as a financial vector and less of a game if that were true.

Israel’s war cry!

Jony Ive? No disassemble?

I hate it when I go to full screen and one of my (100s of) tabs has a youtube short that thinks “Oh, time to start playing again!”

Now I’ll have paused tabs start making noise and I won’t be able to find it until the ad is over.

I feel like there should just be an organization of countries that are not Israel or on the UN security counsel. The United Small Nations. Then they could just do things without everything they propose getting vetoed.

Googling Xi Jinping age: 71

Someone must have said he was 10 years over the age of retirement.

Is this the program that open source people use to install all the random depencies that their program needs to work? The one that people tell me to use when I complain about git bash pico sudo pytorch Install commands?

Or did another company copy their name?

Jamecia backs New Zeland-Madagascar peace plan for Ukraine! Who cares!

I finally understand Trump supporters “Fuck it, burn it all to the ground cause we can’t win” POV. Only instead of democracy, it is copyright and instead of Trump, it is AI.

That fact that it could be a simulation hints at the fact that there is an underlying set of rules that could be used to generate that simulation. Those underlying set of rules could also be considered the most fundamental laws that govern the universe.
