Smurfs Log: Lucky
* Not only was I lucky enough to see a stoat up close today (see previous post), but this afternoon I finally found some of those tiny, fluffy, woolly creatures other people have been spotting. This one was kind enough to bring her two little lambs with her, too.

Popping in with a quick azalea update.
We have reached MAXIMUM PINK.
Repeat, MAXIMUM PINK has been reached.

Fwiw, computer people are starting to sound like climate scientists started to sound 5-6 years ago. You know, that whole "yeah whatever I fucking told you and you fucked around so you're all gonna find out - I'm going to get ice cream because NOTHING fucking matters anymore and we're all doomed."
That.
I think I understand why AI is SOCIALLY and ECONOMICALLY a fucking time bomb - but they understand why it's TECHNICALLY a time bomb too. And I don't like how dead man walking they all sound...

Now you can keep track of how many billions the AI companies are losing on AI. (Red is spending, green is revenue.) https://isaiprofitable.com/

The astronomy cloud computing system is down. Again.
(It is down a lot, but I don't use it that often lately. Otherwise I would complain a lot more)
Always makes me so sad that there's just buttloads of money being dumped into AI data centers so people can make awful slop no one wants, but the science computing infrastructure is held together with hope, duct tape, and someone's leftover grant money from 5 years ago.

506) Platespinningbot. For when you have to spin a lot of plates. That's not a metaphor: this robot actually performs the classic crockery-on-sticks variety act. #SmallRobotsRemastered

@da_667 and it becomes immediately obvious from this that the "LLMs are good for security!" marketing is farcical on the very face of it. even if the LLMs were somehow magical oracles that find security issues, the cost and time needed to do so is far higher than the cost to spaff out buggy code with LLMs in the first place.
it's pure double dipping. they know the output is insecure garbage and they want to market their product as also being the solution to that manufactured problem.

It's Friday! Woohoo!
The dancers have a parental unit visiting this weekend so decided, almost unanimously, to do a quick reprise of the star clap dance while on a nice sunny walk, rather than learning a new step.
As ever, have a good weekend if you possibly can

Was quietly asked if someone was bad news, leading to further enquiries - the results of which have spontaneously combusted my eyebrows

Most people are generally good. But this also means there are a few people who are *extremely* bad.
Never underestimate the damage one bad actor can do to a community. If you let a bad person hang around several good people will quietly leave, and more bad people will join - then the cycle repeats.
Eventually you will only be left with people who are willing to tolerate or even agree with the bad behaviour.
