The U.S. Air Force Academy broke ground yesterday on a memorial to the Tuskegee Airmen with a replica of the P-51 Mustang they flew in 15,000 sorties and earned 850 medals. Lt. Col. James Harvey, a 100-year-old Tuskegee pilot won the inaugural Top Gun fighter pilot competition in 1949. He went on to fly with distinction in combat in Korea. Happy to support this memorial along with the Boeing company. Only one color on this day, Air Force Blue. https://t.co/O4k4CbSiup

Microsoft invested in OpenAI because a company with a couple hundred engineers was outperforming its own ~1,500 AI engineers. Assuming the claims are legit, history may now be repeating. Forced to do more with less, a Chinese company with 200 engineers builds a model 45x more efficient than OpenAI, spends only $5M by decomposing larger models into a team of smaller models - all with 8-bit floating point processing (vs 32-bit). The kicker - it's open source (expect a U.S. fork) which has worked beautifully for broadly used, mission critical infrastructure software and disrupted many a company. Keeps it interesting.

With David Sanborn’s passing, much of the key personnel from “Young Americans” is now gone:

* Sanborn
* Luther Vandross
* Bowie, himself

Recording the iconic album, Sanborn said, was “one of the great pleasures of my life.”

#RIP @DavidSanborn 🙏🏼

@github copilot, with "public code" blocked, emits large chunks of my copyrighted code, with no attribution, no LGPL license. For example, the simple prompt "sparse matrix transpose, cs_" produces my cs_transpose in CSparse. My code on left, github on right. Not OK.

[Tim Davis @DocSparse]

Curious about the "cs_" in the prompt, I tried no function name, just "/* sparse matrix transpose in the style of Tim Davis */". And got my code again, slight tweaked. So the @github AI "knows" this is my code.

Try it. Compare with https://t.co/Mtao5982hc

It is with heavy hearts that The Apollo remembers Harry Belafonte, an extraordinary artist and civil rights activist, and a longtime friend of our iconic stages.

REST IN POWER to a true Apollo Legend.

@GoodNotesApp Make a Windows version and you would triple in size. Exporting, links, backups too kludgy. Multiplatform that accurately synchs would make you unique in the market
