The fatigue is definitely back :/

I have been saying the exact same. AI models seems to be built with the goal of impressing non-knowledgeable people. Vibe coders are amazed by the fact that something runs and it made so many lines!

design oversight evidently.

Was weird to read "Scrib Doon" written before I heard it. Expected it to be a Scottish accent.

I'm somehow also meant to believe this is the tech that users are clamouring for, that needs massive buildout... Is artificially inflating usage something people do for a successful tech with servers under strain?

Nothing cos I'm horribly busy. But this weekend I restart my unfinished reading through House of Leaves and Everything Will Swallow You

We set up an art table for the wedding, and I have such creative friends.

I know such good people and I'm so happy to get to celebrate with them.

Exactly. And if you haven't motivated the analysis model, why do I care about power? Answer: I don't, at all. I care about your ability to estimate parameters, not what your posthocs might say. And if your model can accurately estimate parameters, how much do I care about power? Also not much.

Soon I'll stop forgetting to say "my fiancée" instead of "my girlfriend". Soon I'll be forgetting to say "my wife"!!

I love the idea of fMRI analyses being containerised or part of an all-in-one pipeline that does it all automatically. However, I've never had an fMRI analysis run that didn't go like. "everyone has exactly the same data format, dimensions, and size... But subject 19, session 2, run 1 broke it"

IoT The S stands for security.

My Victorian pilot on our flight to Venice.

KIM KITSURAGI - Well... except that one time when he stopped to sing karaoke. Which, by the way -- I have to disagree with you, Mr. Vicquemare -- was a valiant effort. He really sang his heart out.

Yeah I always forget how to dodge in ggplot as well.

Interviewer: Can you explain this gap in your paper? Gestalt Psychologist: What gap?

Wedding rings purchased!

Now THIS is how you write a story. Devastating.

Advert at the station: use swiss cream for your carbonara. And that's everything wrong with this country's approach to food in one sentence.

Everything I see this i can't decide if the person doesn't engage with any fiction at all, or engaged with the wealth of fiction saying why this is bad, and felt so personally attacked that they went all in on the idea.

This should just be crime. Like, in what world can one accidentally under deliver by 20billion? The promise of that revenue was to hype investors to invest more. It was fraud.

Tech... Reinventing from first principles without first having principles.

Me playing Ace Combat 8 - Boy I sure am glad I fixed that Tonitrus Spear problem, that could really have come back to bite us in the ass. Every 3 missions following: 🫨

Surely the entire white male community have collective guilt for this guy?? /s

"take AI consciousness seriously" No. It's not a serious question unless we go "look, imagine we invent an entirely new model totally different to anything we have now". Which you could also have asked in 1986, so... No, I won't treat it seriously. It doesn't deserve it on any merits.

So uh, wiring lights in the new flat and I have this hydra of wires. Anyone know what this might mean in Switzerland? These don't match the colours of any other wires in my flat lol.

Corrupting the youth of science by showing them how to simulate studies with assumed effects, allowing them to understand power in a realistic way, and being responsible statisticians and experiment designers. Mwuhahahaha
