Chatbots — LLMs — do not know facts and are not designed to be able to accurately answer factual questions. They are designed to find and mimic patterns of words, probabilistically. When they’re “right” it’s because correct things are often written down, so those patterns are frequent. That’s all.

Sharing my wing tutorial for bluesky people! It's light and focuses on propatagium, something that I often found missing when working on client designs. Lastly, check the Alt. text for some commentary. Hope it's helpful! #artsky #tutorial #art #wings #sciart

Python was awarded a funding grant, funding grant asked Python foundation to remove all diversity and inclusion initiatives they have. Python foundation said no and rejected the grant. If you use Python, send a few dollars to the charity to keep it going. I’m pushing a dono on behalf of ScamGuard.

I’ve set up a recurring donation with mine. Even $5 a month can help a lot—usually way more than we, who don’t buy in bulk, could buy in equivalent.

I've been working on a new eurorack case the past couple weeks. #synth #synthsky #eurorack

“I am not interested, nor will I ever be interested. I'm 61, and I hope to be able to remain uninterested in using it at all until I croak. ... The other day, somebody wrote me an email, said, ‘What is your stance on AI?’ And my answer was very short. I said, ‘I'd rather die.’” 🫡

Rykin just can't help himself.

“Now Scientific American has updated and re-released what it calls the “classic graphic” that shows that a human on a bicycle—able to coast, or freewheel, without pedaling—remains the world’s most energy effecient traveler.” @carltonreid.com on the re-release of the iconic graph in @forbes.com.

May I offer an alternative? Do it like a crestfallen knight in search for meaning. Do it like a beast in relentless pursuit. Do it like a wizard, deep in the enjoyment of the potential. Do it like a hyperfixated neurodivergent.

Another YCH illustration finished ^^ This one is for Zetralth ❤️ #dragon #illustration #art

Quick cultural lecture time, from Sigrid Ellis: As we are in Spooky Season, why do so many horror movies of the 80s and early 90s feature extremely creepy homeless people? +

Animals and Weres! I just think they're neat ;) 🫴🐺 the more humanistic an anthropomorphic animal is, the less my personal preference for it aesthetically #OldBearComics #TheBearMinimum

@tailsteak.bsky.social Reading through the Leftover Soup archive - rock, paper, scissors chess is genius!!

In honor of National Poetry Day, the greatest parody rewrite of all time:

As a theoretical cosmologist, I'm frequently asked "what is the benefit of the work you're doing for people's lives?" Nothing I work on makes money or cures disease. There are a few different answers one can give, at various levels of "convincing" / "actually relevant to why the work is done." 1/🧵

Hubby has been furloughed, which means no paycheck til the shutdown is over. So I'm gonna be pushing my etsy and Ko-fi and commissions pretty hard. Sidianarts.etsy.com Get some fun coyote and southwest wildlife merch :B I'm open for commissions. Or if you just wanna help out - ko-fi.com/sidianarts

Please...PLEASE...help me educate the world that there are North American species of Badger, Vulture, etc. Spirits of the wild is a game about North American animal spirits. Indian Summer is a game about autumn in New England. THERE ARE AMERICAN BADGERS! I could make an entire thread about this

I never wanna hear “stories with girl main characters don’t sell/aren’t universal!” ever EVER again

Glowing antlers are a vibe

Just a periodic reminder that it's a good idea to bookmark your favorite artists' sites, sign up for their newsletters, and follow them everywhere you can. (My links are in my profile & pinned post!). Because of the current climate of censorship you never know where we'll get kicked off of next.

GOOD NEWS! Researchers at the University of Florida have developed a UNIVERSAL vaccine that dramatically BOOSTS the immune system’s ability to fight tumors- even WITHOUT targeting a SPECIFIC cancer type. It has the potential to do away with chemotherapy, surgery AND radiation treatment.

so, to understand this story there are a few things you need to know - my cat, Gus, believes he is a trained support animal - he is not (he has relatives who are, but he is not) - he believes he is a seizure-detecting dog - he is not a dog - I do not get seizures

One of traditional paintings I did recently. I wasn't painting on easel for 18 years xD Acrylics on wood, 30x40 cm #traditionalart #bee #dragon #acrylics #furryart

This practice has a long and honorable history: such luminaries as Rockwell and even Leonardo himself employed people to read to them while they painted. Cover illustration for THE STAR SCROLL by Melanie Rawn (DAW) 4/4 www.michaelwhelan.com/galleries/dr...

Jury nullification (where the jury holds the law is unjust) needs to be an educational opportunity right now. It is every jury member’s check on both judiciary & legislators. Our system only works when people are the final word of what treatment we’ll accept in the application of laws.
