Fund-raiser update:

Since the last update y'all have raised $410.10, which added to the previous  $4,368.70 and 44.11 Euros, gives us a new total of $4,778.80 and 44.11 Euros.

I am going to convert the 44.11 Euros to USD, to add it to the other total. At the current exchange rate, that brings us to 46.oo USD.

For a final total of: $4,824.80 USD

If anyone knows of a worthy ambulance fund raiser for me to transfer these funds to, please let me know! I would like to make someone's christmas very nice! 

I have included a photo of my Paypal balance page to show that I am still holding these funds. Please note, there is also about 400 dollars of my own funds in there currently as well. Those funds are earmarked for something else.

Is Donald Trump okay?

Child: What’s your favorite farm animal?

Trump: If we go with Kamala, you won't have any cows anymore. You will not have any cows anymore

Trump: Jill, get your fat husband off the couch. Get that, get that fat pig off the couch. Get that guy the hell off our... Get him up Jill, slap him around, get him up, get them up, Jill. We want them off the couch

@58bugeye I live here. Every year, the Coachella and Stage Coach music festivals run smoothly with buses constantly making the rounds to pick up and drop off attendees. This is a failure on the organizers for the Trump rally. Period.

[BlueDream @58bugeye]

Coachella mess

The venue where Trump held the rally is in the middle of nowhere and 5 miles from parking.

The cult was lured in with bus rides to get in to the venue and then abandoned when it was over.

This is the perfect metaphor for a Trump presidency.

Who has a slogan?

13/ Overall, we found no evidence of formal reasoning in language models including open-source models like #Llama, #Phi, #Gemma, and #Mistral and leading closed models, including the recent #OpenAI #GPT-4o and #o1-series. Their behavior is better explained by sophisticated pattern matching—so fragile, in fact, that changing names can alter results by ~10%! We can scale data, parameters, and compute—or use better training data for Phi-4, Llama-4, GPT-5. But we believe this will result in 'better pattern-matchers,' not necessarily 'better reasoners.

Also stay tuned for the data release!

11-/ .... but even o1-preview shows the same silly mistakes like this. Either it doesn't understand what 'now' is, or it doesn't understand what 'last year' is, or a more likely explanation is that its training data with inflation has this pattern, and it's following that again.

[Mehrdad Farajtabar @MFarajtabar]

8/ This begs the question: Do these models truly understand mathematical concepts? Introducing #GSM_NoOp! We add a single clause that seems relevant but doesn't contribute to the overall reasoning (hence "no-op"). Check out what happens next!

[Mehrdad Farajtabar @MFarajtabar]

5/ #Result 2: The fragility of supposed LLM reasoning. LLMs remain sensitive to changes in proper names (e.g., people, foods, objects), and even more so when numbers are altered. Would a grade-school student's math test score vary by ~10% if we only changed the names?

Dozens of US service members received the Purple Heart because of the missile attack in 2020. One soldier told CBS he had constant headaches and memory loss as a result of the TBI: “The person I was prior to a traumatic brain injury, he's gone.”

@reedgalen @RonFilipkowski @POTUS @VP @fema @NCEmergency Trump’s campaign staff actually constructed a little stage out of bricks from the damaged building to make a stage. Speechless.

whatever Trump was supposed to do with the food containers, he never did it. that was some weird shit.

@AmazonHelp Leute, ihr braucht eine Hilfe-Option "ich will zu Protokoll geben, dass die Sendung beschädigt aber noch benutzbar war".

Ich will nicht zurücksenden, sondern mitteilen, dass die Umverpackung der Sendung beschädigt war, damit ihr eure Verpackungen verbessern könnt.

The Trump campaign has spent over $368,000 thus far,... on a "fashion consultant" for Melania Trump - even though she HASN'T APPEARED at a SINGLE CAMPAIGN EVENT.

That's a lot of money- so you Trump supporters living paycheck to paycheck,... are going to have to dig deeper.

Ok, ich bin gerade nicht so aufnahmefähig, aber nächste Staffel Österreich ist wieder der Hammer:
Hochrangiger Beamter spioniert wohl für die Russen. Er fragt mit seinem Polizeiausweis Meldedaten für in Wien lebenden kritischen russischen Journalisten ab. Das ist nicht alles.
