Unbelievable, this sucks.

If you’re feeling angry about those idiots, remember not to take it out on people who are on your side.

Yeah I had to look it up though, I’m too young

It was a mean post, IMO 😆

I’d love to be wrong

Was that the Zodiac Killer Speaking? A new Netflix documentary series finds even more compelling evidence that Vallejo pedophile Arthur Leigh Allen was the Zodiac Killer, but does it bring us closure?A police sketch of the Zodiac killer,...

My deep dive into the new Netflix #truecrime series, This is the Zodiac Speaking, are live mere hours before everything goes to hand in a hellbasket tomorrow. Lots of new, compelling evidence linking top suspect Arthur Leigh Allen in the series, but is it enough to give us any closure?

Deal. Sorry mine are a little jaded.

1. The recent Dem optimism is going to turn out to be unfounded - the Selzer poll was just a bad one.

2. Harris will turn out to be less ahead among women than expected, and men will close the gap.

Still not over how Arriguccio finished #TheDecameron. What a superb show.

Oh shit that thing is tomorrow? Guys don’t forget

You know what the world really needs? A high level charting library for JavaScript. One that reinvents the grammar of graphics, except makes it really shit and incoherent. I don’t think we have one of those yet.

Yeah same. Plus Max is in the “if we both crash I win” situation and I don’t think the stewards’ newfound common sense extends as far as taking points off

Is Max finally entering his Find Out era?

If anything this type of story benefits proprietary AI companies in their fight against open source

The particular model used (13B) also isn’t a capability they couldn’t otherwise get either. Alibaba has many equivalent Queen models, I’m guessing llama was just convenient. So it’s a complete non-story.

Exclusive: Chinese researchers develop AI model for military use on back of Meta's Llama Top Chinese research institutions linked to the People's Liberation Army have used Meta's publicly available Llama model to develop an AI tool for potential military applications, according to three academic papers and analysts.

Getting a bit tired of pearl-clutching over false or exaggerated ideas of AI rather than the actual social and ethical concerns. Like this story about the PLA using Llama. Militaries using open source code (despite license terms) isn’t a new thing.

That means they think it’s bad, economically?

😂 actually a damn good rat

How hairy are French rats, to make a bat seem bald?

Here’s hoping this has the opposite effect to what was intended, and the credulous morons don’t ‘waste their effort’ voting

Gonna need a pic to support this one

Drake meme: Spending an hour reading abstracts before concluding it's not viable Spending a sleepless week crying over Python code before concluding it's not viable

There’s normally like 10 papers on arXiv where the authors got further than I did tbf

Questions and comments welcomed.

Why bother? Pub chains aren’t going to pass that on, it’s just a handout to Wetherspoons

The comments on this are quite interesting. Fax machines are old and rubbish, and symbolise the private sector’s underinvestment in rail services. But also, if they still work then it makes sense to invest in improving other areas first.

Like the train operators have done with… errr… oh.

Realising with some disappointment that I still maintain neurons dedicated to remembering that this is Sio Bibble of Naboo 😆

These guys ought to not need the coaching, which is why it’s been so exasperating
