I have added my name to a pledge to participate in a massive strike against the Wikimedia Foundation for firing the Community Tech team.
Internet contributors should strike more—as necessary, of course.
🎮 Big update: California’s Protect Our Games Act (AB 1921) just passed the State Assembly floor vote 43–16.
The bill would require game companies to give notice before shutting down server-dependent games and provide a way to keep purchased games playable afterward.
Now it heads to the California State Senate, where it needs support.
@ChrisWardCA for @StopKilingGames!
With support from the Pledge & @insidenatgeo’s Global Storytellers Fund, Explorer & Photographer @paoloverzone documented one of the most complex machines ever attempted—a “star on Earth” that could one day unlock virtually unlimited, carbon-free energy. https://t.co/iYTrFPiUB7

2000 days @Duolingo
I think I'm finished with it
It teaches you how to translate into some language, not the language itself that you're trying to learn

Thanks for all the gems
Yes, Sonic - SNC (SearchGPT) agent seems to be already in eval phase with:
- image search
- widgets (weather, calculator, sports, finance and timezone difference)
- option to ask follow-up prompts
Using GPT-4 Lite (Scallion; POR), GPT-4 or GPT3.5 (Sahara-V) as model and different search engines incl. Bing (POR), Sydney, Fortis and internal search (Labrador).
(All insights in this post are based on publicly available information, public client-side ChatGPT resources used for Sonic too, and investigative journalism in public interest; screenshots are only for illustration purposes/might differ from the final product)
