I'm sorry about your grandmother. Given she had a stocked liquor cabinet for guests shows she was a thoughtful person. I hope you found some great memories in her belongings.

I use the Amazon, not the online retailer, the rain forest.

If you're immortal in the sense that you don't age it would be dangerous to be outted. 8 billion jealous mortals would be an issue for you.

I've used Thorium in the past and thought it was decent. But given Google's updates to the chromium project I've moved away from chromium based browsers.

Pluto is a mushroom

Probably wild camels in central Australia or a platypus when I was young.

I was watching a bald eagle fishing yesterday from my window. They must have moved in to the area, bay of quinte in Ontario, which is good news for their numbers.

I have no idea what it was doing in California

Steroids probably

That's why I always pee on someone else's pants

Generative AI is great for loads of programming tasks like helping create regular expressions or syntax conversions between languages. The main issue I've seen in codebases that rely heavily on generative AI is that the "solutions" often fix today's bug while making future debugging more difficult. Generative AI makes it easy to go fast in the wrong direction. Used right it's a useful tool.

Commercial social media is a cancer on society. Facebook has convinced adults to commit atrocities. There is no doubt it's harming children.

I agree. Very few people in industry are claiming that LLMs will become AGI. The release of o1 demonstrates that even OpenAI are pivoting from pure LLM approaches. It was always going to be a framework approach that utilizes LLMs.

Happy cake day! And that's a brilliant idea

part of the reason why social media is so incredibly toxic

Hard disagree. Commercial social media is incredibly toxic because of individuals like Musk, Zuckerberg, etc. They increase their profits to the determent of society. They create the echo chambers that cause that behavior.

This really whips the llama's ass

I suppose a nuclear ICBM could be considered a long range EMP burst emitter. And a nuclear ICBM would be effective at disabling a robot cops but it's probably overkill.

Just remember that abducted robot cops can sometimes remember their past even if you erase their memories. But good luck on your new project

I often relieve my on fires I've started
