To their credit, I would take "mowing the median of a busy highway" over "presence patrol of national monuments" any day of the week. At least when I lie down at the end of the day I can know that I did SOMETHING useful.

Yes, and not just people insulting him. He wants a taste of pro-Trump shirts, too.
I think we are handling this all wrong. Call their bluff. If republicans want to blame gun violence on trans people, then gun buyers should need to prove they are 100% heterosexual before being allowed to buy a gun. Not 99%. 100.00%
So sick of this failed high school debate club.
Building a system like that in a couple weeks is nearly impossible, though. At least if you want to do it well. I think we are going to hear things like "shortages", "delays", "restricted inventory" over the next month. God help you if you need that one small replacement part or battery ASAP.
This really is the crux of the issue and I am super curious how this is going to play out.
Come to Philly. We will not throw Subs at you. We will throw Hoagies. While we eat a Cheesesteak.
The new logo was a barrel. WTF is wrong with that.
Where is the front-page coverage of this? Anywhere?
The market demand for confirmation that Gen AI is useless, expensive, and doomed to failure is strong. It isn't true, but people want to hear that, and the market is serving that need. Read the actual MIT study for a different story.
The hunt for overtime continues...
No one ever talks about the time Bolton snubbed Putin, to his face, in front of Trump and the Trump family, on camera.
Actually the logo itself IS a barrel. They just got rid of the old guy.
In general I agree on the direction, that we will be building libraries and "concepts" and then piecing them together into applications, with the help of LLMs.
"Who is the Boss? You tha' Boss."
Reinvent propaganda without saying your are reinventing propaganda.
How lucky for him he just happened to be wearing his one red jacket that day!
I think a militia of men dressed in pink shirts, white shorts, and armed with sandwiches is what is needed on the streets on DC.
Oh, nice. Only seen clips, never watched the whole show. That was a nice one with Robert Plant watching on. When Trump put himself in charge I predicted the rainbow medallions would get replaced with something more trumpian, probably more tacky and golden. We shall see.
I have to admit I am curious how they will compare. How far down in the cesspool will he need to reach?
Yes. Let us compare that to what comes down the pike Wednesday.
The 2024 class includes: acclaimed director and filmmaker Francis Ford Coppola; legendary American rock band Grateful Dead (Mickey Hart, Bill Kreutzmann, Bobby Weir); blues rock singer-songwriter and guitarist Bonnie Raitt; jazz trumpeter, pianist, and composer Arturo Sandoval; and The Apollo.
It's Rochester, Jake.
Yes. I would love to know what largest US owner of TikTok and Trump supporter, Jeff Yazz, thinks of that plan. I still find it strange no one on either side brought up the China connection with the Paramount deal.
I have not heard one person mention the Chinese media company TenCent owns part of SkyDance.
Subversive performance art for the win.
Fox News plays on the TVs in the hallways at Penske headquarters, so....
OK, but what Mamet book did Gross decline to promote? - The Secret Knowledge: On the Dismantling of American Culture - The Diary of a Porn Star by Priscilla Wriston-Ranger: As Told to David Mamet With an Afterword by Mr. Mamet - Recessional: The Death of Free Speech and the Cost of a Free Lunch
Where the fuck can we get good data?
Good for them. I hope they are able to brighten the days of more kids.
This year-old tweet is correct if you take out the period between "OUT" and "With": YOUR LIFE SAVINGS WILL BE WIPED OUT. With a TRUMP VICTORY
Crypto and related shady deals could be a whole list.
A failed high school debate club is running this country and they think it is going well. Go ahead and try to tell them otherwise.
Only watched Season 1, which I liked. The bank heist/jail break structure of that season seemed so obvious to me once it was done but I could not think of a single movie that used it in the past.
I really think this is a two-part con. Accept some light regulation now, showing the Crypto industry is willing to play ball, then come back and ask for FDIC-like insurance paid by tax-payers. Then when things fail, citizens are on the hook.
LA Times: ...would hit Fort Bragg in Mendocino County at 11:50 p.m. Tuesday, Crescent City in Del Norte County at 11:55 p.m. In the early hours of Wednesday morning, potential waves would reach Monterey at 12:15 a.m., San Francisco at 12:40 a.m. Wednesday, the Los Angeles harbor at 1:05 a.m.
16 years without a single death in commercial aviation in the National Airspace (NAS) prior to 2025.
I predict LLMs are going to design the next generation of programming languages, based on some guiding principles, and we will see code that is going to start looking like pseudo code, easy to read and OK to write, but will be fast and stable.
GOTO baby. JK.
I like the work of Stanley Donwood.
Honestly I do not think we have heard the real reason yet. At least from Mafia Don.
Rogan, Ellon, etc. .... Zero credibility.
Or, they can shut the fuck up.
It sure does beg that question.
I love this for them. Trump didn't care that these folks invested their life savings when they were out there generating free publicity for him pre-election. Now it is time to pay the Mafia Don.
Where are we going to be in a year with this?
Aside from being a distraction from Epstein, this is critical if Trump is going to declare himself eligible for a third term, because that would mean Obama could throw his hat in the ring and wipe the floor with Trump's ass.
I do something here that I don't do on other platforms, which is block people who are annoying to people I respect. Anyway, they should just block you if they hate AI. It is not like you are suddenly going to start sharing recipes for your favorite summertime potato salad.
Get a copy of "It's OK Not to be OK" by Megan Devine. Read the appendix written for people who are in positions of support. Then give her the book.
I am going to go with whoever capitalized the "p" in President. Role is capitalized when it refers to a singular person. If he wants all media companies to have monitors that report to presidents, that is not capitalized.
Plus Murdock has owned WSJ for like 10 years. Everyone who was going to leave left long ago.
Making, somehow, South Park the most effective free-speech leaders? What a world.
Anyone remember when Trump said he could declassify documents "just by thinking about it"?
Anyone want to guess if this was “vibe coded”?
I don't think WSJ would have ever published this had Trump not sued them for publishing a story on the birthday letter. I hope they publish a story every day until the names in the files are released.
I opened the Paramount+ to watch the Late Show (which I normally don't do) and it seemed to be hidden in every category. I opened up the Search and it was the most searched show.
Double speak and weasel words.
Hello, HIPPA violation? $25k/per instance?
I think that was my point.
I love how the movie unfolded naturally and did not feel forced at all.
Any other CEO would deny their product could be used to harm people.
HOW is that going to work?
This 100% witness tampering meeting should not happen.
Ask a Hollywood studio and almost none of their movies ever make a profit, for the same reason. It is just shell games.
"Google Translate with different training data" is actually more precise than anything here.
"AI Winter Number Thr....." "Oh, wait."
Bravo.
Watching a band cover AC/DC always reminds my of hearing the “Back in Black” album for the first time in the basement with my Cousin Dan and a laser show he made of parts “borrowed” from Bell Labs. Hope the universe is treating you well.
It is not too early to make a plan. Have a plan.
Cocaine is a hell of a drug.
Go see it in your favorite theater. You know, the one with great projection, awesome sound, comfy seats, that is a bit out of the way.
We have to stop calling it a "client list" because it likely is not a document with a literal "client list" heading. Calling it this gives Bondi the ability to deny it exists. We do know there is a phone book, flight manifests, Epstein notes, video/images, and sworn testimony about who was there.
So does this leave us in the end with President Vance? Hand picked by Peter Thiel? Who also owes the Epstein estate (and victims) $170 million?
Imagine if he put all this cover-up energy into being a good president.
There often *IS* a rational. You just have to look at the dissenting opinion to find it.
BEER!
You have run out of free tokens in my brain. Try again tomorrow.

Maybe your Google search could find an article 1) Not based on the GPT-2 model from 2019, and 2) Not written by a guy who SELLS a competing technology.
My claim is you do not know what you are talking about.
Go ahead and explain to me how you think they work in 3-5 general steps. I am listening.
That is not how LLMs work. AlphaFold is a different branch of AI.
ANYONE who explains LLMs as "simply guessing the next word in a sentence" has zero idea how they work and is simply repeating what they heard.
Did you read the paper?
The rules will be weak. The tax-payer funded insurance is what they are after.
Yeah, I didn't find anything he said wrong. I thought the commentators were pointless.
If the FTC is prohibited from enforcing the new "Click to Cancel" rule because they failed to analyze the cost to sites for replacing their intentionally confusing cancelation procedures with straightforward ones, is there any hope this same idea can be used to stop these age-related restrictions?
What is the problem here?
Galactic at Long’s Park in Lancaster, PA. Is a good end to the weekend.
Mother Jones.
It is clever of them to call it a "client list" instead of a "phone book". We know it exists. It was released in redacted form. The unreacted version was leaked on the dark web. Mother Jones wrote an article about it after calling every number in it. And, Alan Dershowitz, is in it. He knows this.
I would say yes, although I do not tend to explain it that way. I really hate making assumptions about new things and then finding out with a deadline looming I was wrong and it is going to be more complicated.
Similar. I keep a large repository of code, often building experiments with new features well before anyone pays me to build them out. Speeds development, yes, but I also find it gives me the ability to talk about how the technologies work early in the conversation.
It does frustrate me that people in recognizing this, let him slide, like when he says he wouldn't have done it "exactly" like Elon did. You can delegate authority but you can't delegate responsibility. This is all being done under his watch. HE is responsible.
Finally watched "A Complete Unknown" (Hulu) and enjoyed it. Ed Norton as a conflicted Pete Seeger was great and deserved more attention. The joke after viewing is you will know nothing more of Dylan's origin because nothing prior to his visit to NYC to see an ailing Woody is shown or discussed.
FYI, work on the "Next Generation Air Transportation System (NextGen)" was started in 2007. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Next_Ge...
Anyone else wonders what is going to happen when a hurricane strikes Florida and there is no more FEMA and Florida emergency management spent all their money putting up tents in a swamp?
binary text search in sql would be easier if you can narrow down your terms.
