Recently, there have been several stick-ups and one Axe murder (in the first Degree). Management has made no Secret of the need to increase security, but still haven’t found the Right Guard. Finding themselves underarmed, the crime wave continues to roll on.

I'm very glad that I preserved Andrew Noz Nosnitsky's tweet before he deleted it... “How can we lure men back to the arts when the financial and dopamine incentives for outrage and gambling are so much higher?” It serves as an analogy for so, so much.

the one or two pepole who see this exchange are thinking : "rationalist?" "🚩🚩🚩🚩🚩🚩🚩🚩🚩🚩🚩🚩🚩🚩🚩🚩🚩🚩🚩🚩" To take this seriously for a moment though: I think the history of music copyright, sampling, understanding of what constitutes imitation of a musical phrase etc would be very interesting to compare.

I believe it's generally agreed that the best in class LLMs need about 15T tokens of training data. www.educatingsilicon.com/2024/05/09/h... discusses various sources of training data. As an example, huggingface.co/datasets/sto... is 8B words or approx. 10.6B tokens from public domain books.

And the Greens count as a "mainstream party" now, with their number of councillors and MPs. They have to make decisions not just opinions.

The uncomfortable truth, which we haven't figured out a response to, is that the old "mainstream parties" weren't very democratic, but making them more so hasn't had good outcomes.

If you want to be a serious political party with a chance of running the country, you simply can't allow your manifesto to be governed by "how many cranks can pay a nominal membership fee and log in for an online vote"

This is almost certainly true, and the UK fails women refugees in multiple ways, including by refusing safe routes to come here, wrongly rejecting asylum claims, barring family reunion & not recognising trafficking victims promptly or at all. If only Mahmood had the power to do something about this

Ditto if you played her instrumentals to nerds and said they were from a Japanese environmental music tape that sells for £300 they'd very possibly believe you. It was the New Age stuff becoming hip - plus I. Heap being sampled to death in "cloud rap" - that led our 2010s FACT conversations to her.
