Arkansas has the third highest crime rate of all us states. Over his entire state, their crime rate is only slightly lower than DC.

Serious AI companies take extreme care to prevent their models from training on their own outputs. The result is “model collapse” where the attention mechanism breaks down, and hallucinations skyrocket. But of course Apartheid Clyde hasn’t bothered to read any actual training research.

Trump's tariffs include 15% on Norway, but 10% on Svalbard and Jan Mayen, which is part of Norway. Also, 10% tariff on the Heard and McDonald Islands, which are uninhabited. It appears the Trump team grabbed a list of ISO 3166 country codes, and slapped 10% on everything they didn't recognize.

Didn’t realize you could do so much blow that you turn into the Mr. Burns alien.

Wait, so how are we supposed to add demographic controls to medical trials?

Everyone remember to heed @davidgerard.co.uk's advice. If anyone tries to sell you something involving blockchain, kick them in the nuts and run.

Not just downloading the model. Even just looking at the open source configuration file for DeepSeek can get you prison. BTW, here's the open source configuration file for DeepSeek: huggingface.co/deepseek-ai/...

The people who think they are good at everything because they are good at coding are also bad at coding.

DeepSeek doesn’t like being asked about Tiananmen Square.

Not discussed enough is the tech leaders who shifted right partly did so to protect their grift. Andreessen is selling crypto Ponzi schemes. Musk’s wealth is mostly based on empty promises about colonies on mars, “full self driving”, and imaginary AGI. They need the GOP to protect their scams.

Briefly ventured back over to the bad place, posted a small technical criticism of the latest AI buzzwords, and immediately got blocked by three VC bros.

The shitkickers in my hometown when they see the actual outcomes of the abortion restrictions they voted for and have been cheering for the past several years: "Look, I don't make the laws."

"'Do you want to become an attorney right now?' his father, ByungJoo Park, asked him." "Hey son, how'd you like to get into the same field as me before you have the capacity for fully making your own decisions?" The dad sounds like an over the top narcissist.

People on my hometown Facebook page (exurban DFW) praising this decision. “Godly” dipshits calling the woman a slut for “using abortion as birth control”, and declaring if her pregnancy kills her it’s god’s will, and she shouldn’t have been having sex. Just the absolute shittiest people imaginable.
