And now, one of many possible payoffs from this walkthrough of fundamentals in mentation and communication:

YOU CANNOT ASSUME AN LLM IS GENERALLY INTELLIGENT MERELY BECAUSE IT SPEAKS WELL.

You also can't assume a *human* is unusually intelligent simply because they speak unusually well--you're evaluating their language facility, NOT their general intelligence.

Thank you for coming to my frustrated TedXYZ talk, I'll be here all eternity.

that's right it goes in the usb-c

laptop vendors be like
we're going to consolidate all connectivity ports into 1 or 2 easy to break usb-c ports and you must power this device with a 2m max power cable.

If you actively run "OpenClaw" or similar services on your real data, connected to the Internet you should probably not be listened to when it comes to topics of the digital, technology or security. You disqualified yourself by being a dumbass.

Today is International Day Against Homophobia, Biphobia and Transphobia. A day that highlights discrimination against LGBTQ+ people and communities, and fosters solidarity and collective action. Do your part and speak out against hate.

Something very cool - this office block in Newcastle is due to be demolished, so a bunch of artists got access and used the whole thing as a canvas. Six floors of art installations, with DJs scattered around.

It was Berlin as f**k. Seeing offices twisted like this was a weird mental flip.

Auditory processing disorder a superpower when you're travelling with a group where nobody speaks the local language. Suddenly that not actually fucking understanding anything and figuring it out from context cues really comes in handy.

Sometimes I doubt y’all’s commitment to Sparkle Motion.

every once in a while someone asks us "why can't you just review the slop code as if it were human written" and let me tell you that we have tried it, and you cannot, actually, do this, for the simple reasons that humans do not write code like that

human-written code follows a progression and exhibits a model of the problem domain. the model may be wrong, the progression may be wrong, but line 1 and line 10 are related to each other.

LLM code has none of that. it looks like code, but does not have the structure of it. there is no progression of thought, there is no model of the problem domain, and lines 1 and lines 10 bear no relationship to each other outside of statistical likelihood.

the question thus asks, "why can't you just eat the dogshit as if it were a burger cooked by a human"

ok I underestimated ABS fumes, my lab reeks now
