@omgsidewalks Primary purpose of oligarchy: read Montesquieu. Coming up with great ideas and amassing fortunes is too hard. Subverting the law and demanding tribute is so much easier.

@NugaonX Huge groan when he capped summary of wife's life as an 'incredible career.' Jesus, no. Sad...

@tekprime99 Wow Dave is more of a philosopher than I thought: this is classic Adlerian Psychology. Focus on the what now.

@Family_FirstBro @TheWyteRabbit1 If you think antivaxxers fulfill the lineage of Skepticism, you know less about it than a goldfish. Any self-respecting Skeptic would despise them. Which have you read?

@NarutoNolimits People are not focused enough on actual connections says the asshole who attempts to addict little kids to attention stealing nothingness so he can serve them ads. While he's burning up half of a million gallons of diesel in his yacht in 6 months..

@VigilantFox Most ED is the tiny capillaries that carry blood to the penis get occluded, by eating meat you moron. Not by not eating enough fat.

@pusholder Even with a natural disaster they'll come nowhere near India's 50K deaths a year from snake bites.

@KentBeck Let's look at the record of the bot-free devs: 50 years writing C code where the dominant failure source was memory faults. Willingness to fix that: 0. I predict the bots are going to do better. I know, really going out on a limb here.

Usually I like to say _____ is already in the belly of the borg, but all the science popularizers? AI has already pooped them out. 💩 There is no reason to make this a 'better than LLM' argument though. LLMs can absolutely do this too. Or make it even easier to build tutors. The core point stands: 1:1 is the way. I read the other day that Tony Blair quoted The Bridge of San Luis Rey in his post 9/11 speech, so I figured I would finally plow through it. I found the very end quite strange so I went and talked to G about it for 10 minutes. Seriously had lot of 10 week lit classes that contained less useful information.

Preposterous, had to reinstall the backends, but then the model failed with the too small window again, had to find that spot in the UX again. Computing in the 21st C! Just as stupid, maybe stupider than it was when we configured things with punch cards. Trillions later!

Less than 24h with a local model running @lmstudio, do a point release of @Apple MacOS and the model fails to load. Gemini figures it out immediately: MacOS upgrades break the python tinkertoys. #everythingisbroken 🤡
