@EdLatimore Think a better way of looking at it is:

The solution is always you.

Even if the problem is not.

@CRUT_BBSR you usually have an excellent service. But you need to inform passengers when busses are cancelled. 19:40 bus from Puri to airport on 16 Dec is cancelled without any notice.

@STAOdisha @CTOdisha please work on improving connectivity to airport. MoBus is unreliable.

@jonburkeUK @commonslibrary Is reduced French nuclear output related to the Niger situation?

Dear Keir,

You can't imprison the climate emergency.

Due to hundreds of uncontrolled wildfires across Canada, New York City looks like a post-apocalyptic hellscape.

If you want a prelude of what the world is going to look like if we do not address man-made climate change — this is it.

@DannyHabibs Is it a solvable problem? Something like e-ink perhaps..

[Alexis Grant @alexisgrant]

Ah, but don't forget that building a great company isn't success.

Living a great life -- one that makes you happy -- is the real end game.

@ericbahn And Google glasses had crawled

AI is gonna lock engineering employees into big companies like Microsoft, Google, etc. and limit their job flexibility going forward - empowering capital and disempowering labor.

@sampullara @amasad This is how it effectively is in places where people live in extended family units instead of nuclear families.

Would be interesting to study some correlations here.

[Arun @arunnanda]

@telmudic Can just hardcode the version numbers.

@Altimor Why are you not online at the same time?

[Arun @arunnanda]

@michael_olenick @alexiskold Important because AI hallucinates. The tech isn't yet advanced enough. No concept of fact checking and referencing sources. Plenty more shortcomings before it is considered reliable enough for critical applications

If you insert electric probes into an insect *before* adulthood, its tissues can organically grow around the probe and unlock a high-bandwidth insect-machine interface.

Then you can read data from the insect's brain and *control* its flight by stimulation. This is from 2009, but I believe modern hardware and AI stack can dramatically improve the "insect cyborg":

- Microchips and onboard computing are now way more powerful.
- Diffusion is able to reconstruct images from even the human brain, let alone an insect's. We will be able to decode the insect's vision and plan accordingly.
- Control methods are more sample efficient & robust. With enough insect samples, we can gather data to train a highly nontrivial flight controller. RLIF = reinforcement learning from insect feedback?

[Arun @arunnanda]

@alexiskold It is probably not of great significance, more a casual observation.

[Arun @arunnanda]

@AbhayVenkatesh1 Yeah, I liked stable diffusion. It'll probably be a while before open source catches up to the quality of gpt. That'll open up whole new avenues of custom LLMs for individual domains and businesses who want data privacy.

@arjitsoni12 Median is way too risky. Especially for people exiting and entering. Education and enforcement is the only way. Put up signboards and tow away the encroaching cars. Profit.
