Picture is of a gay white guy in a green v-neck. It seems most of the data people ended up on Bluesky so here I am.

With regard to the AI bubble any kind of ML with less than one billion parameters is anti-AI.

I am 99% sure that physically based rendering was created so that physicists could feel on their own skin the same pain that mathematicians feel looking at physicists doing math

This was just school. I don't think my teacher was much of a fan of religion. So it was reading practice and cultural history. Like the Uriah posting which is a post where you are expected to fail or which is unreasonably hard.

Whenever I hear the line

You saw her bathing on the roof

my mind always continues

You raped her, murdered her husband, and took her as your eighth wife.
Because that was one of the stories we read from the Bible in third grade (so we would learn where the Danish word "uriaspost" was from).

Yeah, but if I like anything that shows up on this feed I break this feed. Good old mode collapse, but very fast.

I know Mercer's theorem has nothing to do with Robert Mercer yet I can't shake the association

This is the reference I use when I argue that people who don't vaccinate their dogs because they worry about dog autism are actually pro dog cancer.

Oh, I thought it was for your research. For your person? That's weird. Actually, now I'm wondering whether some of the American rich people complaining about Wikipedia paid someone to create their page and now it's there and not as flattering as what they paid for.

Also, you're the expert so you should write it (the first version - if it's notable people will update it).

I was thinking the same thing. These kinds of models will never be useful until they do vector graphics that can easily be modified and reused.

Wikipedia to the rescue

reversed causality claims. And people have then subsequently been adding widgets to the theory because they want to use control of inflated to regulate unemployment. Or they want to publish papers, whatever. Everything is lies is my point.

Someone posted the Philips Curve and I was like "Okay, reasonable relationship and the direction of causality is clear. But wait, don't I remember something about this being bollocks?" So I looked it up on Wikipedia and it turns out economists replaced delta wages with inflation and [cont.]

You should be able to get big encyclopedias almost for free. If you move them yourself. If local buy and sale websites don't give you anything try estate sales / liquidation. Save them from the recycling station. Try your local recycling station.

I also think that slot machines have a unique trick in the rapidly spinning wheels. Phreaking but for the optic nerve.
Although, maybe TV is similar?

Gambling addicts so dumb, they could be home playing WoW for the low monthly price of everything.
To be serious, I think gambling is multifaceted - in the same way that junk food is fat, sugar, and salt but cookie dough ice cream is different from fries.

Look at the list of local associations / clubs on the website for the national association of role-playing (and other activities) associations. Once your kids hit grade 7 there'll probably also be rpg in the local Ungdomsskole.

Yeah, we now have LLM tools that can add references to papers that actually exist. Whether the paper supports the assessment is still up in the air but that is the same for human performance. A G I.

Docker-based code execution sandboxes for LLM reinforcement learning are irritating to set up and slow, so over the weekend I made a small wrapper library around Bubblewrap.

By using a shared read-only root filesystem, it can start an Alpine Linux environment in ~2ms.

That's not people though. Spotify continues play after a queue ends and they preferentially choose songs that give up part of their revenue. Combine that with streaming "SEO", manipulating algorithms to promote or select your catalog, and you get AI songs in charts.

Like you say, data centers don't bring jobs and I've never heard of them being a source of corporate tax revenue. Aren't they all cost? Not even sales taxes.

I really don't think you need potable water for evaporative cooling.
The trick is that data centers don't need water but it's cheaper than electricity.

Evaporative cooling is most effective in dry climates and not terribly important in cool climates. So you need to evaluate each data center locally. Is it in a place like Mexico City or Arizona where water consumption is already unsustainable? Not going to make it better, is it?
