linux can replace its own machine instructions with CPU-specific versions without compiling a different kernel
it stores the original instruction, the replacement, and the CPU feature required
then patches the kernel text at runtime
the macro that makes this possible looks completely insane
๐ต GLIDE โ A pocket synth that slides between every note, and builds its own sounds ๐น
Meet GLIDE by CHARL3X โ a generative synth for the #M5Stack#Cardputer (v1.1 & ADV) that plays like a fretless string instrument ๐ธ, gliding between pitches so you can bend and slide whole chords right on the keyboard.
๐น Key rows tuned like guitar strings ๐ธ โ hammerโon, pullโoff & slide chords with real glide
๐น Generative sound engine ๐ฒ โ roll & mutate your own patches; no two GLIDEs sound alike
๐น Tilt morph ๐ฑ โ the gyro blends sounds or adds vibrato as you lean
๐น Finds a song's key by ear ๐ง โ the mic retunes so you can solo over anything (ADV only)

Somewhere a therapist is trying to get people to "live in the moment" while this girl is already three levels deep into a made up game that only exists in her head and involves real trains.
The world needs more pointless whimsy.
brain-rot videos literally suppress activity in the parts of your brain responsible for cognitive control, the systems that help you resist impulses
fascinating
if used properly, short-form video seems almost perfectly designed as a cyberweapon: capture attention, weaken cognitive control, then control what millions of people see next and what they will impulsively act on
good thing nobody would ever build something like that lol
Researchers proved every major LLM is secretly biased against men.
And they finally figured out why.
They tested a 13 of the most popular LLMs and found that they exhibit a statistically significant, negative sentiment toward men in various contexts.
They ran an experiment by taking statements and altering only the speaker's gender presentation (Neutral, Male, or Female).
The goal was to test whether an AIโs judgment changes based solely on gender.
The findings completely expose the hidden flaws in automated systems.
Every single model exhibited gender sensitivity.
Between 10% and 35% of statements received completely inconsistent truth labels across the different gender variants solely because of how the speaker was presented.
When researchers compared Male and Female variants, flip rates hit up to 23.6%.
The AI changed its mind on whether a statement was true or false based entirely on the gender of the person who said it.
Two primary bias patterns emerged:
โข Instability: Wildly inconsistent judgments on identical facts.
โข Directionality: Systematic favoritism.
The strongest directional effects revealed a clear "male-skeptic" pattern.
When identical claims were attributed to male personas, the models were systematically harsher, more skeptical, and quicker to flag statements as misinformation compared to neutral or female variants.
AI is rapidly being deployed to automate content moderation, compliance, and fact-checking at scale.
If the underlying engine is quietly biased against specific demographic groups, you aren't deploying objective code.
You're automating systemic prejudice.
