Why are ethics questions always like:
"is it ethical to steal bread to feed your starving family?"

And not:
"is it ethical to sell bread when families are starving?"

The pure, untempered gift of suddenly realizing it's Saturday, not Sunday

The character of the light made it possible to get the texture and color in the feathers.

Tech is the funniest industry and it always will be.

It's a bunch of people who think they are creatures of pure logic, but every problem they try to solve turns out to be a human problem that is inherently illogical.

The results are endlessly hysterical.

I’d been hearing about the coal-mine protests in Germany, but this photo by Sean Gallup is the first that gave me a real sense of the titanic size of the thing and what’s being protested. Just… unreal.

"Do I hear the pitter patter of tiny feet?"

That's right. I tied a badger to your desk.

you know how when somebody says "the cloud" it actually means "other people's computers"? and how "the economy" really means "rich people's yachts"?

in a similar way, when a company's marketing department says their product is "the first of its kind" - it almost always means either:

1. "we don't know enough about this field to know that somebody created a working solution 30-50 years ago"

or

2. "our competition has already done this but we're willing to bet you don't know that"

good morning and welcome to 2023

Last year, we began an effort to get a #TFLite model running on a VIM3 NPU using Etnaviv & #OpenCL. Our goal? Getting a machine learning workload running on a fully open-source/upstream solution. Here's the latest: https://openfir.st/mletnv #OpenSource #TensorFlow

'openai' is a fun name … what part is open exactly?

Apparently MSFT gets 75% of OpenAI profits until it recoups $10B… is this why they say OpenAI is a non profit?

So… to recap. Not open. Not a non profit.

Cool cool. #openai #chatgpt

Dear fediverse, please send me documentation to setup either apache or ngnix as a TLS terminating proxy so that I can serve https://a.domain.com and https://b.domain.com on the same IP.

Thanks!
