I was at the bike shop a few weeks back and a ghost walked in. He came in wearing a medical mask covered by a bandana, sunglasses, cap. They wore gloves, long sleaved pants and shirt.
First question from staff, 'this a robbery?'
Ghost, 'no, I just need 27 2.5 tubes, miss.'
They get the tubes, he agrees. Staff asks if he has an account. Ghost says, "nope, why would I need one?" Staff says they do it for records, insurance claim assist, and discounts. Ghost goes with a John Doe, pays cash and peaces the fuck out.
Total King, but dude was given up a lot. Half of us were drinking beers enjoying a warm evening in spring. I hope he has had some good rides.
I can say with confidence thay he was a white male. In his 50s. About 5'10". 140 lbs-ish. If anyone wants to get any tips, good luck!
Are the pharmaceuticals, health care, transportation, technology, and information industries not means to be seized?
China may produce the bulk of the physical products we use, but we produce thought and systems capitalists use for the benifut of the few. The means are for the many imo
There are over a trillion hectares of free real estate in those minds. Manifest destiny is back for .ml. Who new the market place of ideas could be so scary?
Thank you! Your tech analysis mirrors much of my own and your build of matrix mirrors some proofs I'm working. It is wonderful to see what others are doing. Thank you for sharing.
I am hosting on vultr and deployed synapse, postgres, and a signal bridge on a 2 gb mem, single core VM. It is simple but effective for learning. It is about 12$ per month.
My next build will be docker based. Reverse proxies are a weakness of mine so I am trying to upskill before I make the change and advertise my setup as prod to family and friends :)
I'd prefer to run everything from my homelab, but I don't have the infosec confidence to open my home network. The costs of cloud will never beat the salvaged comps I get at university surplus ;_;
Its been as easy as searching stuff like YAML or AWS on tracker sites. There is a surprising amount of content. I even got some cool cooking content from Master Class
I really like tacking a pack of la Croix (or kombutcha) to a party or BBQ. I can chug through them like beer and be a responsible human at the end of the event. That no calorie and not artificial shit is a big big plus
Ive used it and love it. I convert PDFs I read for work to ebooks and then audiobooks. Then I listen to the content at the gym and count it as work hours :)
Nothing beats a good narrator, there will always be a place for performance and folly noise. This is a useful tool for the content you have to consume
This aligns with news from US schools on the decline of literacy. Also with the inability of some US college students to read a book. Strange times ahead
I agree how these conclusions were developed is trash; however, there is real value to understanding the impact alignments have on a model.
There is a reason public llms don't disclose how to make illegal or patented drugs. Llms shy away from difficult topics like genocide, etc.
It isnt by accident, they were aligned by corps to respect certain views of reality. All the llm does is barf out a statically viable response to a prompt. If they are weighted you deserve to know how
I think this, like anything tech, depends on the usecase.
As an example, if I was an ethnographer working to document rural cooking techniques on the Isle of Skye I might work with this group to stand up a public instance of mealie. Success would depend on the project being a collective work though. Me working with the collectives to meet the challenges of the project over a loosely defined set of time.
I think the above could be a big success. On the opposite side, I would not count on the collective to host and maintain my personal tech stack. Maybe I'd pay them to advise, but little more
No, my people dont live long. My wife will though. It makes me happy knowing that between both our labor she will be able to eek out a living in old age
