I know their replacements will be just as bad, if not worse, but F'n good riddens.

Sometimes you just have to draw a line in the sand and say something is ready. I've spent the last month or so not only adding level II site functionality to Heimdall, but what I consider to be genuinely novel functionality and interactivity. It's live for you to try at heimdall.stormscale.io

Let them take out Palm Beach. Let them take out D.C. It's a very small price to pay.

The terms data mining, big data, data science, machine learning, and AI have all been moving targets these 30 years. It’s numbing to have to constantly change my approach to the vocabulary based on who I’m talking to.

I really dislike that a "terminal" and command prompts are now considered advanced tool with anything that has to do with computers or networks. That's all we had my first ten years sitting in front of a computer beyond some experimental user interfaces. The graphics were the "advanced" part.

A little scoop before Oct 7, when ICANN publishes 1,000+ applications for new top-level domains: one of them is .bsky! It's a long road (18 to 24 months), but if it goes through, handles like alice.bsky become possible.

CRANE, a UK cybersecurity research network, used AI to desk-reject 50% of proposals before human review, including one on the risks of trusting AI models in voice analysis from Lancaster University forensic linguist Claire Hardaker. This seems like AI doing the right thing in protecting itself. 🙃

I took a course in college that taught me Prolog (Logic Programming). I may start using those brain cells. Be afraid...

De Niro: The Trump administration knows that their policies are unpopular. They’re not stupid. Well, okay. They are very fucking stupid. I mean, really stupid. They’re stupider than I ever thought. But they recognize what they’re doing is turning away people.

Katie Phang on Blanche: What are you trying to hide? Who are you protecting? This is the permissive culture that is created, that is then buttressed by conduct by people like the AG to protect perpetrators, co-conspirators, enablers of crimes. Crimes against children, crimes against women.

Every NEXRAD radar in the Florida panhandle area is offline today, making the current heavy rainfall to the area essentially undocumented. This map show the radar quality index. The less quality, the less rain you'll see on radar. Tornado warnings & precip estimates will suffer the most.
