Because LLMs haven't even pulled physics really into plain language (as the video explains), they've merely pulled *pretend* physics into plain language (just like non-expert plain language history is mostly pretend history).

The 'tool' is a toy to play at physics like a child plays at house. /end

I like that Strava refers to you as an Athlete. I ate a sleeve of Oreos at 11 pm last night

Work on your critical thinking skills and learn as much as you can. Train your own model.

Re LLMs writing term papers: the other day I saw someone say that using LLMs to write is like bringing a forklift to the gym. It's not that the weights need to go up; it's that you need to do the lifting. The doing of the work is the result, not the paper being done or the weights having moved.

Welcome to slop world: how the hostile internet is driving us crazy The last bits of fellowship and ingenuity on the web are being swept away by a tide of so-called artificial intelligence

In which @jacobsilverman.com develops the concept of ‘hostile architecture’ to encompass all that is going wrong with the internet including enshittification, slop, hyper-commercialisation and people screaming into your void

Oh nice! Will work up an outline and submit in a few weeks.

AI models miss disease in Black and female patients Analysis of chest x-rays underscores need for monitoring artificial intelligence tools for bias, experts say

I mean… Yeah. Yeah they do. For entirely known and warned-about reasons. Yes.

Thoughts on Signal gate, as someone who spent 19 yrs at CIA. I'm thinking of all the times I accidentally brought my phone into the office and had to not only immediately walk it across the massive parking lot to my car, but report myself to security. Do that too many times=real repercussions

Too many people accept opinion as fact, or deem anyone capable of stringing together a complete sentence to be intelligent, which is why LLMs seem like a suitable replacement for the people around them.

A pleasure working with the Cloudflare folks... making the Web faster and safer on step at a time.

Cloudflare is this great company which safeguards approximately 20% of all web traffic.

vibe coding is like being convinced you can open a fine dining restaurant after buying a microwave and a subscription to Blue Apron

Looking forward to next demo day

I've chosen to avoid this wave of AI altogether. I'm not interested in becoming one with the machine. If they are willing to spend time and money training artificial intelligence, why wouldn't I do the same for the real thing.

I see you are an optimist

Amsterdam devs - I'll be speaking at this event, talking about how we build Workers KV on Workers. Stop by, learn a little, and say hi!

AI haters build tarpits to trap and trick AI scrapers that ignore robots.txt Attackers explain how an anti-spam defense became an AI weapon.

Basically traps AI crawlers and sends them down an "infinite maze" of static files with no exit links, where they get stuck and thrash around for months. Once trapped, the crawlers can be fed gibberish data, aka Markov babble, which is designed to poison AI models arstechnica.com/tech-policy/...

I’m a highly regarded Senior Technical Project Manager who specializes in building distributed research networks for health outcomes and drug safety studies. My current job is entirely federally funded. If you’re in industry (especially in EMEA) and could use that skill set, let’s talk!

I am guilty of entering that text on more than one form.

De-Nazify shit.

Imagine being this guy whining about privacy. Lol. Lmao

Workers KV namespace limits increased to 1000

We just raised the Workers KV namespace limits for all Cloudflare accounts, from 200 to 1000

Folks had been running into those limits, especially teams building multi-tenant applications who split KV data by tenant. That’s now a thing of the past!

Jamie Dimon is doubling down on JPMorgan's DEI work as a conservative group targets Wall Street: 'Bring them on' Jamie Dimon reaffirmed JPMorgan's DEI commitments after pressure from an activist shareholder.

Jamie Dimon is no leftist — he just understands that hiring top talent means casting the widest possible net

If you see this post, quote with a bridge from your gallery.

Results of 4DP performance test characterizing the rider as a sprinter with maximum neuromuscular and anaerobic capacity relative to FTP but weak MAP.

“You are a sprinter!” Hell yeah I am!

Actual AC was 395. Good improvement since getting off the couch but now it’s time to crank that MAP and FTP.

Just be diligent about laying out your hypothesis, your reasoning, and your measurement. Capture the learnings whatever the result.

Resist the urge to evaluate your decision based on the outcome. Did you follow a good process?

I’d say “the scientific method” qualifies as good process.
