Say it after me: Chat GPT is not a search engine. It does not scan the web for information, it just generates statistically likely sentences. You cannot use it a search engine, or as a substitute for searching.
Now. Please never use an LLM for information searches ever again.
It’s 11:10pm and I’m on the final chapter. Great book!

“I’m so angry, I could burn the world” “Unfortunately, someone else has burned it. We need to unburn it”
This quote hit me pretty hard today:
“I’m so angry, I could burn the world”
“Unfortunately, someone else has burned it. We need to unburn it”

Tired of feeling helpless, so we made some signs, went to the #Fayetteville market house and let folks know we won’t go away. Thanks to @controlledburn.bsky.social for showing up.

A clam with a spring attached to the shell. The spring has a magnet placed above a sensor.
Hardly new info, but BSky should know:
Warsaw's water quality is monitored by eight clams with magnets attached to their shells. If contamination in the water causes the clams to close, the magnets trigger an alarm and shut off the city's water supply.
Thank you, little guardian molluscs.

I’m not going back to meta. Many of those accounts are bots. Some are local yokels. None are worth my mental or emotional energy.

Change in Paris air quality between 2007 and 2023 using visuals
Air pollution has dropped significantly in #Paris in the last 15 years. Mayor @annehidalgo.bsky.social’s leadership has traded car space for green space, safe bike space, kid space.. and traded pollution for people.
Good trade.
