Yes… unexpected. Surely we couldn’t predict that people would lie about their climate progress!

Epidemiology is a real thing though. You can certainly track, for example, the link between smoking and lung cancer. Not everything is as clear as that, but epidemiology is quite important.

Yuuuuup. People talk about how stupid AI can be… but like, have you ever met a human?

The very idea of having a choice feels threatening to their tiny minds. Like, just choose to be a white cis man if it’s really all that important to you.

The asymmetric design terrifies me. Fuel tank on the side? Absolutely bonkers. And yet it totally worked.

Because that would require an extremely high orbital inclination. The vast majority of weapons packages in space would be angled more like Starlink to cover only habitable areas of the world.

It would be better to teach critical thinking and how to recognize logical fallacies. No need to teach one specific scam that people fall for.

Texas just passed a law that gives extra funding to public schools that teach the Bible.

I’m not happy about it either. It’s an abuse of power, no matter whose side the guy is on. This just further degrades the office of the president into a self-serving free-for-all.

It depends. A lot of LLMs are memory-constrained. If you’re constantly thrashing the GPU memory it can be both slower and less efficient.

A lot of the smaller LLMs don’t require GPU at all - they run just fine on a normal consumer CPU.

Eleven Labs really does good work. I’m also using it for a project, in this case to teach children to read.

Are you looking for someone to commiserate with or some actually useful advice? Because working on fundamental social skills is exactly the advice you need. Relationships are certainly attainable, if you put in the work.

No? They should be deported, not put in camps.

Just lock a bunch of writers into a room and don’t let them out until that baby is in peril.

I think the point was that there were also paid actors intentionally stirring up drama around him.

Eh, everybody does saber rattling from time to time. Most people are happier with harsh words than bombs I suppose.

Though that’s no comfort to Ukraine, who are already embroiled in war.

God, that’s how you end up with Skyrim, but with endless AI generated quests with NO continuity or sense whatsoever.

Shotwell is an amazing person for operating SpaceX to such success, despite all of Elon’s efforts to the contrary, like trying to cancel Falcon Heavy.

Yes, there is a shit ton of dead weight in the government contractor sector, just soaking up that delicious tax money for minimal effort. But I have a feeling these aren’t the employees being targeted right now.
