“institutional violence”… An interesting misspelling of “collective punishment”

I saw one video of a dude whipping a water bottle at a cop. Bottle chucker got immediately tackled by another protestor.

There but for the grace of the gods go we.

For som reason, “ywars” changed your voice into that of a pirate, and it made me cackle. Thanks 💛

“every safety regulation is written in blood” and I’d add, it’s often the blood of the poor or working class.

So I thought it couldn’t possibly be that bad! So I looked it up on Amazon. Guys, it’s way worse than that bad. $60 for a goddamn cable! It supports everything though… https://www.amazon.com/Cable-Matters-107022-Computer-Cables/dp/B084Z65YJQ

You could drill it out and replace it with a nut/screw and bolt…

Thank you.

Waiting in clinic to see if I can be done with this 45d cough and sinus issues.

Hope springs.

Feeling greatful for your posting about “the message” a few weeks back.

They book made me look at apartheid differently, but surprisingly, also parenting. I’m now a Ta Nehasi (sp?) Coates fan. He seems like a good guy.

Finally finished this. Thanks for turning me on to it! 💛

It makes sense that you don’t buy it. LLMs are built on simplified renditions of neural structure. They’re totally rudimentary.

You’re not wrong, but I don’t think you’re 100% correct either. The human mind is able to synthesize reason by using a neural network to make connections and develop a profoundly complex statistical model using neurons. LLMs do the same thing, essentially, and they do it poorly in comparison. They don’t have the natural optimizations we have, so they kinda suck at it now, but to dismiss the capabilities they currently have entirely is probably a mistake.

I’m not an apologist, to be clear. There is a ton of ethical and moral baggage tied up with the way they were made and how they’re used and it needs addressed, andI think that we’re only a few clever optimizations away from a threat.

So, if your VPN provider is sold, why would you keep them unless you had pretty intimate knowledge of the buyer. Is that a dumb question?

This may explain why…

I listened to a bit today. Not what I expected, but I like it a lot.

Ooh shit! I gotta read this. Thanks!
