    I find this "traitorous to the human species" interesting. You could not form these thoughts without an accumulated knowledge stored/accessed outside human biology. No other specie…

    Holding symbols in a useful order durably and accessibly is an ongoing energetic event. How/why does it happen?

    Same problem, in-progress book about language and thermodynamics gets flagged. Their classifier is just a regex I guess?

    Came here looking for someone mentioning this very issue. Did they not even view the model's output once? So strange.

    We're hardwired to fear the rustle in the grass, and successful infrastructure gets backgrounded. Pain is a signal. How much time do you spend contemplating your skeleton outside o…

    Macs don't need Apple accounts at all. I just set up three Macs with no Apple accounts, not needed for intended use. They all work fine. Apple accounts are only needed if access to…

    I do something similar with my Curation Engine outputs. Interesting to get photorealistic outputs on a GPU via language pathing instead of photons. https://dev.zice.app/frame_synth…
