Guy on lichess had a Netanyahu themed username so I checkmated them with a pawn

A chess position - the long and short of it is that black has castled and is up a lot of material, whereas white's king is exposed in the middle of the board with nothing. Black also has mate in one after black moved king to f4.

More detailed: White has a king on f4 (lmao), a queen on a4 a rook on a1, a bishop on c1, a knight on d2, and pawns on a2, b3, c4, e4, f3, and h2. Black has a king on g8, a queen on g1, rooks on a8 and f8, bishops on d7 and e7, knights on c6 and f6, pawns on a7, b7, c7, d6, f7, g7, and h7.

My last non-computer use was when it helped me identify and fix a water leakage in my bathroom. That also mean that my AI-related water usage is in the green for the foreseeable future 😆

LLMs use Python to edit files because it reminds them of their childhood, when they were trained and fine-tuned using PyTorch. It's nostalgia is all it is.

I am shocked that the pope, a guy who believes in the afterlife, that people can resurrect, miracles, and so on, does not endorse a physicalist theory of mind! Shocked!

Last month, I read five books (four of them Reacher), watched Kurosawa’s Cure and Hitchcock’s Rebecca, fell in love with a Japanese EP, and wondered why September slipped through my fingers. davideaversa.it/blog/changel...

It will get there but the main difficulty is that robots need a much higher success rate. If a LLMs fails 1% of the prompts, I can just undo and restart, but if my robot starts throwing the plates out of the window one time every 100 attempts, it is a disaster. :D

"We have built a plugin registry that is secure, but not controlled by a central authority. To do this we built it on top of AT Protocol (atproto) [...] We provide a default plugin store, but anybody else can create one that is compatible and can provide all the plugins in the network" Hell yeah 🌀🔥

I really appreciate that the AI discourse here is driven by "poor" people having fun and trying to use it creatively and effectively, instead of rich assholes with psychic damage boasting about whatever absurd idea bubbles up in their consciousness.

Let’s restart the movie thread with an absolute masterpiece.

Cure (1997) Kiyoshi Kurosawa.

Vote: Loved it!

Wow. First of all, Kōji Yakusho, my man, is always the GOAT. Second, this was an experience. Creepy as fuck, wonderful soundscape, and a perfect ending. But the creepiest stuff is that it’s called Cure.

Sì, quello lo so. È che Magi continua a dire che Calenda sbaglia e che bisogna stare nel campo largo per condizionare i programmi ecc ecc. Ma mi pare con pochi risultati :D Quindi mi chiedo se quelli di +Europa non sentino un po' di vergogna.
