@Northernlion All these fools saying "blow the leaves into a pile" like they've never used a damn leaf blower before. How tf could you collect leaves into a pile using a leaf blower, you'd blow away the pile trying to push the next leaf onto it.

@patrician_tv I am shocked, SHOCKED...

Well, not that shocked.

@nakeyjakey @StarfieldGame @BethesdaStudios @BethesdaSupport Haha, when Fallout 3 came out, I was trying to show my dad the game and talking about the lore and the 50's tech setting and the radiation shelter vaults and he sounded interested, then I accidentally clicked the mouse and instantly shot an NPC's head off with my laser pistol.

@Kurt50A @JoINrbs For this reason, most dangerous heat waves are measured using wet-bulb temperature which is more indicative of how deadly that heat wave will be. If you can't reduce the heat around you with air conditioning, you just die, even if you're drinking water. https://t.co/CgXjGAAN4w

@Kurt50A @JoINrbs If it's too humid, though, sweating doesn't help carry heat away the same way, so even if you stay in the shade and drink water, you body stays at dangerous temperatures and you can die from hyperthermia. https://t.co/GLfOZKtpk6

@NateSilver538 Bro how can you still think this after a week of reporting? Like it was made out of expired carbon fiber that was cracking every time it went down. It was doomed to implode, if not this voyage, then the next. https://t.co/5gdnA5ouZO

@JoINrbs I think the new Zelda does a great job with this too. The puzzles all organically teach the player how to use the available tools in the open world. There's a good amount of stuff to learn but it never feels overwhelming. And it's just fun.

@The_ShadowZone I got exactly the same behavior. Managed to make a maneuver node in Kerbin orbit that got me an intercept with Laythe and had a trajectory line, but then when it came time for course correction burn at ascending node in the Kerbol SOI, I just got the entry/exit circles.

@DJSnM I'm surprised that the Kraken persisted between games considering KSP2 was built from scratch. I guess I always assumed that it was a result of KSP1's spaghetti code.

My thoughts on Toolformer

IMO the most important paper in the past few weeks.

Teach an LLM to use tools, like a calculator or search engine, in a *self-supervised manner*

Interesting hack to resolve many blind spots of current LLMs

Here's how 👇

@caseyyano It shows! Slay is still the best roguelike deckbuilder because its UI is so good much better than any other.

The Coca Cola company is not happy with me--that's okay, I'll still keep drinking that garbage.

In June, when I had just switched insurance companies after starting a new job, I unknowingly purchased my standard prescription of insulin using my old insurance. That company sent me a bill for $2300, which my new insurance refuses to pay.

Fuck @LillyPad, they deserve this.

@HardDriveMag This basically happened:

It had a ton of actors you would recognize, 14 different sketches made by different directors, and is considered one of the worst movies of all time.
