I don't post on Substack because I already have my own site where I post stuff, and have done for 27 years, and because Substack makes a lot of money off Nazis and fascists and I'd really rather not, thanks. I do have an account there but it's to secure my name. It has a cat photo.

LLMs do not understand, will not understand, and cannot ever understand information. It's a glorified search engine combined with auto-compete, and you should treat it as such. No matter how much LLM companies try to tell you their machines can think or reason, they cannot and will not. 12/12

If you're into fragrances, as I am, go to real perfumers. Some of my favs: AbdesSalaam Attar: Self-taught Sufi perfumer who only uses natural ingredients. Many of his perfumes feel like you're walking through a Middle Eastern bazaar. Milano Caffe, Cuoio dei Dolci, and Tabac are worth a sniff.

Lady Minerva loves to go enjoy a summer rain shower! Vultures = Clean! They purify the environment by efficiently removing dangerous toxins (their digestive systems can neutralize anthrax, botulism, rabies, etc) and they spend a lot of time keeping clean themselves, too! 🪶 #soggyvultures

Minerva turned 42 this year!🎉 Did you know that vultures are such long lived birds? Turkey vultures like Minerva can live into their 50s, and larger vultures like Andean Condors can make it into their 60s and 70s, possibly even older than that! 🪶

a gray hairless gremlin squints at the camera with the look of a bad motherhecker. she’s scowling, but wearing a pink fleece jumper with cherries printed all over. the cognitive dissonance is strong. upon further inspection, this may just be a hairless chihuahua, but you can’t blame us for the misunderstanding.

This is Miso. She is reporting for her weekly paw inspection. All toe beans are accounted for and are as teeny tiny as ever. Inspection passed with flying colors. 12/10 (IG: lifewith_miso)

a tiny white fluffy pomeranian is belly-up in a person’s lap. she looks a little nervous, and her front paws are being held in the person’s hands. all four paws have the teensiest little black toe beans, each one small and perfect. she’s got nothing to worry about.

This is Scotty. He’s a little guy with bad behavioral problems. With your help, he was able to enter a specialized training program to work on that. Through positive reinforcement, he's made incredible progress. He's now happily adopted — and will continue working with his trainer, who adores him ❤️‍🩹

A teeny tiny brown floofy pup looks sassy as he is held by a medical professional in a clinic.

Scotty is embraced by his new forever mama on a sunny day.

The pup smiles with his silly tongue hanging out of his mouth on a beautiful day. He is wearing a cute team harness and a matching leash.

We would not. LLMs only repeat things they’ve seen. At any given moment, they can’t go beyond the current state of programming. They don’t learn from the code they produce, if you feed it back in, quality quickly degrades. So they need real programmers writing code not seen before to keep advancing.

If LLMs had been invented in the early 2000's, would we still have had advancements in programming like "convention over configuration" and metaprogramming?

This is Max. He snuck out in the middle of the night and walked 5 miles to get a breakfast burrito from a store that gave him one once. They hadn't opened yet when he got there, but Max was found the next morning thanks to his GPS collar patiently waiting outside for his well-earned snack. 14/10

a great pyrenees opens his mouth to accept a breakfast burrito from his person.

a screenshot of Max’s journey from his GPS collar app. it shows he went 5 miles across 2 hours and took 17,000 steps.

an iphone screenshot with all the notifications from his GPS collars tracking his adventure. he left home at 11:39pm and arrived at the store a little after 2, but waited there until 7:30.

max lays on the floor at his house and looks up at the camera with some side eye. he does not look remotely contrite. maybe just a little sleepy.
