sounds like someones been listening to Steven Miller too much again

I AM AN IDIOT AND NO ONE WILL STOP ME

Raytheon and Lockheed Martin are public

What the KENNEDY Center used to be…

Remember that time Aretha Franklin performed at the 2015 Kennedy Center Honors, paying tribute to Carole King, who co-wrote “You Make Me Feel Like A Natural Woman,” and it brought a tear to Obama’s eye and everyone to their feet? And Carole King’s reaction. Wow.

Very smart sir, keep it up

Happy new year! I'm going to bed

Happy new year!

Didn't think so.

Any doctor want to take a shot at defining AI psychosis?

A screenshot of the first page of document by Hans Bethe labeled "The Story of Los Alamos." It is a scan of a weathered document and shows classification review marks and classification markings crossed out. On the right, going horizontally up the page, is a handwritten phrase reading "redacted version." The OCR of the first page is as follows: "the laboratory was established as the the last of the tour maJor proJeots in the atomic bomb program. the purpose ot the three earlier proJects vas to manufacture active materials which could be used in an atomic bomb. 'I'vo of themthe project of Dr. Lawrence at the University of California and of Dr. Urey at Columbia University vere concerned vith the separation of the active isotopes 235 from ordinary uranium using ~o different methods. The third, the Metallurgical La~ratory at Chicago, developed methods to produce the entirely new element plutonium by means of a nuclear reaction. All of these proJecte vere , in the Spring of 1943, at a stage of transition from re- " search to actual production. At this stage it seemed appropriate to establish a furthsr laboratory to investigate the actual construction ot an atomic bomb. ~is laboratory vas built at Los Alamos, near Santa Fe, Hew Mexico. As Director, General Groves who vas in over all charge of the atomic bomb project, appointed Dr. J.R. Oppenheimer, vell-known theoretical physicist from the University of California. The laborator1 vas first in tended to be quite small vith a total staff of one or two hundred. It aoon vas found that the problema in deaigning an atomic bomb were much too difficult and varied to be solved by such a small statf and the laboratory aoon grew to more than ten ti~es its original size"

Hans Bethe, the scientist who worked in both the Manhattan Project & USA H-bomb programs, wrote in 1983 a 40 page history called "The Story of Los Alamos."

It seems not to be publicly available online except where I have made it so, free for all: osf.io/thjpk

What the wise man does first, the fool follows

Preponderance of compute may lead to inefficiency, probably get away with just improved methods

They're meme numbers gotta get those numbers up

Mine is 6.7k.

I understand your struggle.

Humanity is in the midst of its "fuck around and find out" phase of discovering novel applications for LLMs so if anyone's unsatisfied with the rate of scientific progress please feel empowered pick up the metaphorical pen.

Someone in a meeting asked the difference between LLMs and machine learning. I created a diagram showing the difference between supervised and unsupervised models. They said, "oooookay..." and we continued just dumping them all into the "AI" bucket

I sure do like youtube

Legislation can make it work, as it has in the past. Of course there are vested interests. The rest is all interesting projection. You're scared of AI?

Been spending time engineering an AI assistant thats a protection of my paranoia. It finds sources of error then analyzes the hell out of it so I no longer obsess. It rules at its job because it speaks logic to scarcity of authority.

If you want to speed up the return time on the outage, call the utility if you see any damage to electric assets. Downed poles, branches caught in wires, etc.

i'm da king of da power grid

So true

Arguments complaining about infrastructure always seem so silly to me. Why does the power go out when it gets windy? Why can't you drive on the highway as fast as you want

If you're not using Copilot or GPT you will get dusted by midwits who trust computers.

The hardest job in the world

Happy Thanksgiving!
