@BenjaminCrew1
It is so ludicrously funny that the lasting impact of the House of Borgia, one of the most powerful families of the Renaissance, is Disney's Shaggy Dog franchise and a fried chicken restaurant in Dublin operated by its descendants. https://t.co/PDu3iuwy70 https://t.co/JwddbRarXX

But. These features do sound good though. Maybe I will have to try it. https://t.co/jjncMQe2Xi https://t.co/eaH9pCNs81
@mrled
"If the features are good who cares about syntax, git gud at programming" ok but on the other hand "YEARS OF LISPING yet NO REAL WORLD USE FOUND". I'm not arguing with language syntax, you're arguing with history
@mrled
Every time I start to look at some new programming language I see the features and say "neat!" and then I see the syntax and I realize the fucking lisp people are back on their bullshit
@WB_Baskerville
As much as twitter pisses me off these days there’s simply no other platform where you can go to find out that the Borgia family still exists and they’re the fried chicken kings of Dublin https://t.co/knxfHbhuoL
@realism_fan
In Dublin, a large percent of the Southern Fried Chicken market is cornered by the fish & chip shop chain Borza, which is owned by direct descendants of the Borgia family who moved to Ireland in the early 20th century. They still speak Italian to each other in the kitchen. https://t.co/OSFgtTv2Bo
@Tinkzorg
the only place you could get AMERICAN FRIED CHICKEN in Uppsala (a place called "American Takeaway", it was ran by turks or something) closed down and now I'd have to go to St*ckh*lm if I wanted to have some fried chicken.
It is so, so over. https://t.co/FrkxcGRJX0

@mrled lmao what decade movies are you watching this weekend
@mrled
Oh I forgot RIFLE PRACTICE lmao, you can also practice shooting long guns at tin cans in The Bushes and no one will hear. Convenient
@mrled
I love how in movies there are locations like The Bushes right next to every military compound where you can park a car, hide indefinitely, meet people, cook dinner, whatever u want. I wish someone would put some Bushes in my town they sound chill

Twitter is suppressing Substack links! Prove it to yourself by liking and retweeting my substack link!
Also Instagram finally added double tap to zoom, find that old photo of your crush and zoom in to see all the detail
@mrled
It's striking to me that the same companies that love Kubernetes love monorepos. Kubernetes is about abstractions, people working independently; monorepos are about removing barriers, a single person shipping a change across everything at once.
@mrled
Kubernetes is highly compartmentalizing. No one understands the host OSes, the plugins, how the clusters are deployed, secrets management, AND all services.
Monorepos are highly cohesive. One person can ripgrep through ~all the code in the company.
Not sure what to make of this

A better implementation would require hosting even derived works. Want an unauthorized derivation taken down? Ok, now YOU have to host it. No rights without remixes.

@mrled
A weird correlation between LLMs and humans: introspection isn't standard. The LLM will only know like "how many tokens can you accept" if its own documentation is in the training set; humans (sometimes) only know like "why are you feeling angry" after lots of psychological work.

@matrixdotorg @OpenAI Some day soon I'm going to be in a chat in Element and I'll ask some embarrassing question thinking I'm talking to the LLM, but all my bros in the gc will know that I forgot POSIX sh for loop syntax, again

My god if I were at OpenAI right now I'd be begging someone to let me rewrite ChatGPT frontend without React. It could load instantly. If u build it that way
@mrled
You know something useful an LLM could do for me is take my verbose prose and turn it into something that fits in a single Twitter post but still sounds like me. Let's Tweet step by step.
@mrled
I have lots of old hardware, stuff like old laptops, interesting parts, boring cables. As a kid I loved caches like this, esp the weirder gems. Wish I could give this stuff that isn't useful to me now to my past self, or a current someone with a similar need for hardware. Anyone?

The TL;DR?
If you manipulate the generation significantly with Photoshop or other tools, and put in human labor... it's valid for copyright.
If you just type in a prompt and generate – not so much.

The * in regex syntax is called a Kleene Star, by the way. After Stephen Kleene, who invented regexps (in 1951!) to notate grammars from modelling neural networks.
Not AI ones, real biological neural networks.
Your neurons fire with regular grammars!
https://t.co/OIoCmayKnr
@thingskatedid
for example + produces a repetition node (1 or more), and so does * (0 or more). But if you have one inside the other, you can combine those into one node: https://t.co/qI2BqYHD43
