last-minute gift idea if anyone's still looking

The internet infrastructure in a nutshell:

are you sure

We are thrilled to announce that our NEW Large Language Model will be released on 11.18.25.

Been studying 3rd person camera and discovered a neat trick from Zelda Walls blocking camera is commonly solved by moving the viewpoint closer. However when the wall is moved away, Link's camera doesn't immediately jump to its original position, instead only slowly recovers when there is user input.

Careful, Chiitan might get sued by Nintendo for summoning :(

be very careful about what you post online

Normie cyber people it brings me no pleasure to announce the aerospace cyber people absolutely cooked us

but those early, "unbaked" language models were *basically* produced by applying math to various subsets of human generated data about humans. nobody was "designing them to fool people" because they weren't for public release or consumption, they were pure research products

For the record, I do have enough technical knowledge to say that generative models neither contain nor reproduce their training data. I know a lot of people have anecdotes to the contrary, but they simply do not do that. You’re lying to yourself if you think they do.

to kind of sum this up, I think that the role of generative AI in the future is going to be for filling in elements that, for whatever reason, the creator wants to be in the work but does not feel the audience needs to feel were crafted by human hands

my conclusions here are in many ways bummers! here's the thing I was trying to say: I think fewer people in the future are going to bother learning to make art,or write,or make music,or code,in traditional ways in the future because of generative work. this will make lots of stuff less interesting.

the gist of what I said was that I think that, barring some kind of legal outcome that heavily restricts the availability of generative models, I think they will become extremely common as part of creative pipelines, and fewer people will learn skills they might otherwise have.

The thing is that traditional troubleshooting skills still have to be learned with experience. LLMs definitely help, but can only complement real troubleshooting skills. If all you do is ask questions with insufficient context and can't use your brain to guide it toward a good result, it won't work

I am proud to announce... PEP: Prediction-Encoded Pixels This format is able to compress images (up to 256 colors) smaller than GIF, PNG, QOI, BMP, in almost all cases. A lot of passion and research (and fixation) has gone into this: >> github.com/ENDESGA/PEP <<

There she is on #wplace! Standing Beautiful and Tall is the Statue of Friendship! Large thanks to @/fifteenai for helping greatly with the pixel placements and @swingthevine.bsky.social for Blue Marble! #MLP

I really can't emphasize enough that it takes only about three pieces of information about someone to re-identify them. None of us are particularly anonymous if we have any sort of sustained online presence

one must imagine artists happy

Part of the job as a cybersecurity professional is in fact arguing to purge and not log information about your customers. Data is not oil. It's risk.

In music they tell us that stealing is what makes you a great artist. Nobody is actually stealing anything, it’s all just about being deeply inspired. That has to be ok! How else will we make great new art?

You need to know a certain amount about how the pieces fit together, but you often really don't need to know all that much about the arcane details to nail down quite precisely where a problem lies.
