Personally I think it is ridiculous that NASA's leaders swoon & obsess over their Fantasy League race to beat China to the Moon yet TOTALLY ignore the incredible work and REAL SCIENCE being done by the Mars rovers. This is Curiosity's latest view. NASA/JPL-Caltech/MSSS/fredk/SA

That said, I think Elden Ring is very mid compared to DS1 for example. Its main feature is… being large. I know people love it but. Maybe some of that is going on here with Resonant too.

1/23 Sorry, this will be long... There is a lot of shouting about what happened in the Channel yesterday. So I want to go back to basic law. Not immigration policies or political rhetoric. At sea, the starting point is simple: Preservation of life comes first under all maritime conventions.

"But, Bart, things like that LUCONA don't happen anymore." On a July night in 2011, seven armed men boarded a supertanker off Yemen and set it on fire. 2 weeks later, the man sent to find out why was blown up in his car. This is the story of the Brillante Virtuoso. (love that name) 1/41

Would assume everyone knows it by now, but just in case "First the traitors, then the invaders" is an explicit reference to The Turner Diaries, where a white supremacist revolution overruns "The System" and kills all their enemy during the evocatively named "Day of the Rope".

Amnesty International put out a major report documenting the influence of UK based anti trans gender critical organizations and their funding. Within hours, GC groups threatened defamation lawsuits and Amnesty was forced to pull it down. Proving the point they're anti rights. Anyways, here it is.

Looks like Google has upgraded Translate over the years, switching to a deep learning model in 2016. I’m not sure where DL techniques fall on the generative/classical axis.

these vibes suck @papunakki.bsky.social · 14/06/2026
I think most people mean generative AI (LLM and other such models) when they say AI nowadays. I don’t think Translate used genAI in the past, at least. Confusingly I think LLMs are pretty good at translating non-creative text and modern translation services use these model techniques.
