Hab mich gerade gefragt, ob das nicht schon im Badischen liegt und auf der Wikipedia-Seite zu den badischen Dialekten das hier gefunden:

Also ich schätze mal, nein. 😅

You know what you can also inside a backpack? Bags. And inside those bags? Even more bags. Basically, you can carry infinite carrying capacity in your backpack! 🙃

Outstanding in her field: cow recorded using tool for first time

Oh yeah, as a wise Adam Savage once said:

Remember kids, the only difference between screwing around and science is writing it down.

That cow in the GIF is screwing around. But if it could have a chat with its cow friends about how that ball is flying and they could write that shit down – and they'd have stable enough of a food supply and no predators – then I 100% believe that they would continue screwing around + writing down, until they've figured out a rule for how that ball flies.

And from that point, they would start building trebuchets and take over the world. Cause that's how things go, appparently...

I mean, I hope so. I've just seen this sentiment expressed so often, that cows must be nearly braindead, because you don't hear them reciting Shakespeare while they're chewing grass.

I believe, that's a general herbivore survival strategy to not ~~recite Shakespeare~~ move much while they're eating, so that they don't draw attention from predators and conserve energy. At least, similar behaviour can also be seen in deer and bunnies.

But yeah, clearly they're intelligent enough to have survived until we domesticated them, despite being a big hunk of meat.

They are not typically thought to plan, let alone solve problems. A new study suggests we may have underestimated them.

Never understood these views. Is it not planning, when cows predict where a predator is likely to appear again after it has disappeared behind some shrubs?And is it not also problem solving in some way to run the hell away from predators?

In particular, the tool use category feels like we're asking a fish to climb a tree. There's only so much cows can achieve with tools, since they can only hold those tools with their mouths. They might be solving physics equations in their third stomach and we're asking, if they've figured out how to bang two rocks together.

Like, no, I don't either believe that they are solving physics equations, but you can throw a ball for them and they'll correctly estimate where it'll go and in what direction to kick it back:

Which I feel like it should count for more intelligence than being able to extend your reach with a stick.

Bei mir ist es gefühlt eine 50% Chance, ob es mich aus-knocked oder so ein bisschen wacher macht, was es halt ziemlich nutzlos macht. 🥴

Also kein Plan, ob ich in der ADHS-Liga mitspiele. Ich erziele zumindest mal hohe Punktzahlen in Autismus-Selbsttests, was ja öfter zusammen mit ADHS auftritt.

I have the horrible feeling that they even specifically start an HTML renderer for that toolbar itself, because the rest of the application appears fairly quickly.Well, and because you would typically share the code for rendering the file manager contents with the code for displaying the desktop icons.

So, in hopes that they did not rewrite the desktop icons in React, nor now ship two implementations for rendering those icons, I choose to believe that they built a horrible Frankenstein file manager instead. 🫠

Ah, in that case, I got poe's-lawed. There's just teenagers out there, who have not yet formed such a taste and assume others have not either, so may genuinely assume they're just supposed to be the most physically beautiful and non-weird to rake in a boy-/girl-/enbyfriend. Well, and some of those teenagers even make it into adulthood without taste...

“AI slop is quite fatiguing both in the actual action of viewing the content and the fact that it’s so repetitive, so unoriginal,” Avriel Epps, an AI researcher and assistant professor at the University of California Riverside, said.

I love that that's a quote from an assistant professor. Just stating matter-of-fact-ly that the content is boring as hell. Which, like, yeah, these LLMs and image generators are literally built to generate content based on existing patterns, so the content is by definition going to trend towards being boring. But then also just referring to it as "AI slop" like it's a technical term.

I mean, they probably need a name for it in research, too, and I would welcome them going with the term that's established in common parlance. But whichever way this usage came to be, I find it hilarious. Especially with Satya Nadella being so deeply saddened by adults continuing to call it what it is. 🙃

Find's auch geil, wie es das dann einfach gnadenlos durchzieht. Bei einem Menschen, der so einen Quatsch glaubt, würdest du fragen warum, und spätestens dann würde die Person merken, dass das vielleicht doch keinen Sinn macht. Hier wird stattdessen pro bono einfach irgendeine Quatscherklärung fantasiert und dann auch noch eine Anleitung geschrieben, wo in jeder Ausführung mit berücksichtigt wird, dass du dir unbedingt die Eier einquetschen musst.

Macht aber auch irgendwo Sinn, wenn man bedenkt, dass ein LLM lediglich auto-vervollständigt. Wenn es als Eingabe nur "muss der hodensack mit ins kondom" hat, dann ist die offensichtlich Auto-Vervollständigung eben nicht das faktisch Korrekte, sondern "ja, der hodensack muss mit ins kondom". Und wenn man von da aus weiter auto-vervollständigt, dann kommt eben eine Kondom-Anleitung heraus, nur dass eben immernoch dieser initiale Kontext, dass der Hodensack in's Kondom muss, den ganzen Rest der Erklärung beeinflusst.Im Grunde hat es ja nur diesen initialen Kontext als tatsächlichen Input, von dem aus es auto-vervollständigen soll, also muss der immer wieder in der gesamten Ausgabe eingebracht werden.

I blame romance movies and novels and such. It's such utter bullshit, how the stereotypical storyline is that she rejects him at first and then he's just really ~~desperate~~ persistent and then she eventually softens up and they're married ever after.

Some women like that little dance of rejecting and the guy not giving up, but even then only if they think you're cute beforehand.But most women will just find that creepy and off-putting. They want to have a partner they actually find attractive themselves, not just any partner who finds them attractive enough to persist through humiliation.
