Here's a video of a Chimpanzee using Instagram. It's eye-opening.

@BigBradBrown I saw your article about online payment gateways in SA. I'm working on an AI Art gen app. Can you recommend a gateway that will integrate well with Flutter for Android, iOS, and Web? RevenueCat looked the best, but Stripe is not available in SA, Proxy for Stripe?

@elonmusk @jimkxa do you think a 'distributed worker' architecture would be able to compete with AI running in a 'big tech cloud'? Millions of micro-transaction using some crypto to reward participants. Not mining but doing useful 'work' in the form of training/inference.

@hackaday 3rd Year Project, H-Bridge. We couldn't get the smoke back so we had to get new components ;-)

@FatihHaslak1 What would you consider high resolution? I believe it can be done with 1024x1024. But, the results can also be upscaled using a super resolution method without losing detail/quality.

@lexfridman Can completely relate. It is a process to realise that the thoughts are not necessarily contradictory and that all of them are OK in their own right, fluid, and human. Direct them, but don't control/force them too much. Acceptance is also a form of freedom (IMHO)

But I’m no fan of the far right either.

When we started #Tenstorrent, we set out with one goal: to create chips for the next generation of #AIproblems. We’ve come a long way — our next move is building a CPU team in #Bangalore.

@tenstorrent @jimkxa Any virtual passes available?

@jk_rowling Don't see the fish or the mermaid. Only see the donkey. 🤣

@Timcast I think it will be a very good and interesting talk to listen to. Looking forward to a reschedule of this one doesn't happen.

@NovosLabs Can I sell it in South Africa?

@elonmusk Sounds like many people think leading is just about telling others what to do. Serving them doesn't mean the roles are turned around. It means getting off the pedestal and leading in a way that will benefit all.

[Jaco Joubert @enginosoft]

@DanielRegha @elonmusk Lol! And then an asteroid hit, or nuclear chaos, or, or, or... Happy with what Elon is doing for humanity as a whole! He can't fix everything on earth with money, but he can live his dream and inspire millions which will have an even greater greater impact on earth.

Rewiring (in my anecdotal evidence) is real! Reducing inflammation in the brain also helps.

Among the best things about our nervous system are that (in contrast to other organs of our body):

1) It controls our thoughts, feelings and actions.

2) It can rewire & learn — indeed for the better, if the desire to do so is strong enough.

@Mangan150 No I don't know... does it start with a V? Not sure I follow, but sounds interesting. Agree on the loosing fat, gaining muscle part...
