After I learned how LLMs function, the “AI” we use in reality was categorized within my mind as something entirely new and different from the fictional, cognizant, sapient artificial intelligence in my favorite novels.

Here are some neat neutrino facts:

• Neutrinos are incredibly difficult to detect.
• There are many neutrino sources, although supernovae may be the most prevalent with 99% of energy released as neutrinos vs 1% as visible light.
• Our sun radiates about 2% of its energy as neutrinos.
• They travel at the speed of light and rarely interact with normal matter. So rarely, in fact, that 99.99% of neutrinos would pass through a 10km-thick slab of lead.
• Most neutrinos pass through the entire earth without hitting a thing.
• 10²¹ nuetrinos pass through each 1" x 1" area of your body per second and, on average, you have a 25% lifetime chance of interaction with a neutrino particle.

Who knows what will be discovered!

https://reticulum.network/ I was looking at this the other day. It looks like there is potential to support more than just a message layer.

More people need to understand that this is how LLMs function. There is too much belief that these algorithms are actually thinking and reasoning.

Also keep in mind that employees of companies that release closed source software are obligated to keep secret any gaping security vulnerabilities. This obligation usually comes with heavy legal ramifications that could be considered “life ruining” for many of us. e.g. Loss of your job plus a lawsuit.

Often, none of the contributors to open source software are associated with each other and therefore have no obligation to keep discovered vulnerabilities a secret. In fact, I would assume that many contributors also actively use the software and have a personal interest in getting security vulnerabilities fixed.

I enjoyed watching that clip very much! Thanks for sharing it.

Upload a photo which includes your face and genitals, and AI will validate your age and sex!

It’s accurate though…

Locksmith here. In a pinch, I’ve ground the back of a jigsaw blade down, leaving just the teeth on the blade (short enough to fit above the key). Jigsaw blades, especially those intended for metal, are hardened and will easily bite into just about any key, giving enough leverage to pull out the broken piece.

My guess was wrong! My photo was also taken from Mt. Lemmon in Tucson. Great pic, BTW!

The landscape in your photo immediately reminded me of a photo I took in 2014, although I’m betting that yours was taken much closer to Phoenix than mine was.

Plastic bowl. Squeeze it.

This is my hobby, too!

Just to be clear, I’m not saying it isn’t useful, I’m just tired of hearing people say that the code “thinks”.

“AI” returns mathematically plausible results from its tokenized training data. That is the ONLY thing it does. It doesn’t consider, it doesn’t fact check itself. “AI” in its current state is a party trick.

Factorio. It’s the game I always come back to, and I’m always ready to spend 5 minutes playing here and there now that it works so well on steam deck.

Whoops, thanks!

Over the past few years, I have taken 60mg/day generic adderall IR to be functional at work. I don’t usually take any when I go on vacation or when I have time off work.

While the drug is effective, the only side effects that I have noticed are a sharp drop in my appetite and minor dry mouth. After the drug has been metabolized, I haven’t noticed any lingering effects.

I have had the best results with amphetamine-dextroamphetamine produced by Teva. My pharmacist once provided amphetamine-dextroamphetamine as a substitute for Amphetamine Salts Combo, and I learned that the salt-combo was not as effective, and the side effects were less tolerable. I asked my doctor to specify my preference when writing my prescription. There is some controversy about whether the manufacturer affects the effectiveness of the drug formulation, but I detect a clear difference in my performance.
