Low key miss the default mail and calendar apps that came with Windows 7. I think that was my peak in terms of email management.

You know I'm kinda hard on Thunderbird, but so far it's been way more stable (and memory efficient) than Evolution and KOrganizer which is what I used before.

Yeah I think I am an "Own over rent" person in most aspects of my life.

Oh no, I think I want a petabyte of storage at home 😵 Like I want to have multiple copies of wikipedia locally to perform various data transformations on, but I'm so limited by space. If abytbing I can let the conpute run for stuff like that over a week if needed but I just don't want to deal with doing this stuff in the cloud. I think I hate subacription services and just prefer upfront stuff I can have forever?

Love through sacrifice is such a self defeating approach when you are outside of a life or death environment. The sacrifice gets mistaken for love inside and otber forms of loving can be so easily forgotten and the sacrifice may not always feel like love to the reciever in the first place.

Really liking the new spongebob game. Reminds me of the fun parts of crash bandicoot on the ps1 with some of the fun exploration of spyro. Honestly platformers are some of my fave titles to this day.

goal for the weekend: get hotpot with the polycule 🥰

Phi2 is dumb but it's kinda cute how it randomly makes up word problems for itself to solve instead of doing what you tell it to. I tried getting it to do a function call but it was like "nope haha I don't know how to do that. I'm gonna make up a math problem instead and start trying to solve it"

Note to self: Dolphin models are brainrot to LLMs. No wonder my dolphin-phi was unable to think for more than a few sentences

Seriously though what the hell are some of these outputs they're teaching these things "he was staring at the beautiful mexican girl" as an "answer" to a random rant.

Maybe this is a side effect of using AI to generate datasets?

I like the fedi because I can externalize some of the thoughts I wouldn't subject folks in my DMs to.

CLI coding and smart contract reviewing vibes. Morning meeting seems to be a no show so I got an extra hour of productivity.

Bouta skip the language model and autistically read all the training data into my own brain instead.

What if web pages had thr equivalent of a "gas fee" where they were limited by how much they could execute and if they ran out it stopped. I wonder if enforcing it on ads would lead to a bit less bloat.

Whoop. Signal is down. 💀

Fancy text indexing and RAG is great when you don't know the sort of data you're storing. Human legible questions especially need extra effort. Personally I've been retrieving most of my data via my browser history's fuzzy match and I end up building a sort of shorthand of search terms to bring up exactly what I need
