I agree with you on the graded approach. Btw, first I've heard "One Neuron" but I like it.

If you haven't been following development of this one, it's a spiritual successor to King Of Dragon Pass. Similar prose-meets-hidden-dice mechanics (decades before Disco Elysium) only instead of managing a mythic bronze age tribe, you're assembling a crew to pull of audacious heists in hell.

Let’s be clear: no amount of money can undo the damage done- wilfully-by Alcoa in this instance. Alcoa should be kicked out of the country and its assets seized and nationalised, as an example of how seriously Australia takes this kind of grand theft and vandalism.

Shanghai on the path to becoming a zero-waste city. Shanghai is moving toward a citywide circular economy, with industrial recycling rates now approaching 98% and household recycling rising from 35% to 45.3% since mandatory sorting began in 2019. buff.ly/yLJ1M8e #ShareGoodNewsToo

I am unable to stop at services on the motorway as I am secretly racing everyone and stopping would mean they would re-overtake.

Quote of the day, from a friend who founded a software startup: "You can’t use an LLM in any context where being wrong is a problem."

I hoped that getting a "certificate of citizenship" would be an easy/cheap alternative, but it turns out it is a hard/expensive alternative.

I think it just lets you install an LLM locally should you want, it doesn't install one for you. So no harm leaving it there.

In USA, sales to poor and middle class are well down, so either people have woken up (unlikely) or the economy is in very bad shape.

I've heard LLMs described as automated mansplaining, so this doesn't surprise as much as it might. BBC needs to fix itself though

My cat taught herself how to turn off my morning alarm. This has made me late for work at least three times recently and I don't think my boss believes me that it's because of my cat turning the alarm off.

In the car and my kid would say "when can I have a sweet?" and I'd say "In 10 mins when the clock says 2.50". When she was distracted I would go in the settings and move the time back a few minutes. Managed a record of 29 minutes once before she twigged something was up.

While the gospels say that Judas led the Romans to Jesus, a new theory is gaining traction with some Biblical scholars. There is evidence, some say, that Judas merely shared Christ's location on an insecure group chat that accidentally included several Roman officials and journalists.

An open front wooden frame with a box of assorted sticks at ground level and an ordered row of sticks with names on above. A sign labels it as a DOGGIE STICK LIBRARY, with CHEW STICKS below and CLASSICS on the upper shelf.
