I have found that Apple Music has over the years lost a big portion of my uploaded music :-( I may still have some CDs somewhere to grab it again, but a lot of it is also just gone :( Is there a good and reliable music service for uploading and streaming music from (ideally Sonos-compatible)?

How should I trust AI tools when they tell me things that contradict what I'm seeing, and then say "I Was Wrong Earlier"? They are good at finding explanations for *anything*, no matter whether it's true or not :-(

Most people cannot name a single astronomer. If I could change that to one person it would be Cecilia Payne-Gaposchkin. I've never read her thesis. I think I'll fix that.

Amusing how 99% of people using LLMs forget how these things work: They are advanced probability machines. They generate the next most likely token (word) based in the input and their training. Under the hood, it’s a giant matrix multiplication that has eerily good output.

We often hear that LLMs will soon replace SREs. We wanted to test that claim, so we ran an experiment. Read the blog to see what we found.

No prob for P9. Check out Fig 3 of the paper: the orbit is unstable WRT Neptune, so should not be part of the aligned cluster. Unsure about implications of Fig 4 since they use a weird version of Planet Nine that is closer than what we think is true.

Astronomers have found a decently big iceball on a ridiculously elongated elliptical orbit *way* out past Neptune. It hints at a whole population of these things, and does throw a monkey in the wrench for Planet Nine.
