Since I got back from Japan, my sleeping cycle has been totally messed up. There is no reason I have to get up in the morning but I still want to. Hmm, maybe I should try to stay up all day tomorrow.

I find the acceptance and defense of mediocrity to be deeply depressing. This is true not just in the context of large language models, but particularly in the case of certain scholars and politicians.

"The city of Portofiro is, at least, a very different beast to Disco Elysium's Revachol. Parts of it are similarly dilapidated and decayed [...], but it's still a much more vibrant city. It feels alive, caught within a three-way clash for culture and ideological power." youtu.be/caXWEP2QKxM?...

The 6502 has no multiply instruction. No divide. No floating point. Every math operation beyond add and subtract is done in software, shift by shift, branch by branch. And yet Wozniak wrote a floating point library in 256 bytes.

“I don't understand what it's supposed to do. Every time I see a video on Instagram that's like, 'Hollywood is cooked,' what follows is, like, the most stupid dog shit I've ever seen in my life…”

Been working on the proc gen system for #Delphian, my #C64 space trader. With the code I have now, I'm currently looking at a modest sized galaxy of 266484 stars, with each star having 1-8 planets.🙂 Plenty to explore! Or is that too big...?🤔

I bought AMNESIA in the 80s for the C64 , but never finished it. It was insanely frustrating, and also my copy (on 5.25 disk) went bad. And now I discover, after a long day, that it is playable on the web? I can find out what happened? I am so tired. But this is way more important than sleep.

AIをご託宣のように使う人が多いのに危惧を感じている。AIは神の声ではない。友人のアドバイスですらない。ハレーションを含み、膨大なデータの中にある傾向を示しているだけだ。あまりにデータが膨大なので、まるで全知全能のように見えるだけだ。 　その意味で、現在のAGIはすでに人間そのものだ(ただし滅茶苦茶電力を食う。その意味では三食の飯だけで動く人間の脳は有能だ)。ただデータが多いだけ。人が狂うことがあるように、AIも狂うことがあるのだろう。 　自分で考えるのをやめてAIに依存すれば、先行きは人間存在の破滅しかない。そう思う。

The 6502.org source code library is a goldmine. MicroChess, Tiny BASIC, floating point routines - all in 6502 assembly, all free. Why write your own SBC monitor from scratch when someone already did it better? https://6502.org/source/

I just saw some old dude's post ruining his own reputation he earned through his early accomplishments. Sad, but he obviously couldn't contain his ego and didn't care to be so rude.

Machine Translation at BlueSky is obviously not great.
