  • Or even local municipalities publishing important adivice.

    /hey did you know that they have to cut the water supply to work on these leaking pipes? /no /why not we put it on facebook /…

    No i don’t have facebook, O just wish people who used it understood this little fact of life. But no. They rely on facebook for local communication, essentially cutting out anyone else.



  • If we’re talking about the pyramids the amount of quality building material in there was not sourced from slavery. Egyptian used slavery in farming and in army and logistic matters, but these heavenly buildings were all pretty important. What we do know is that salvery was also an outcome of tye conquest of other areas and cultures, so they forced them into what was considered egyptian culture at the time. And it’s a damn long time span of many hundreds of years. We have so much documentation from the egpyptian kingdom. There are things that are more mysterious than the pyramids to me, temples and little oddities like the Osireion.




  • According to our internal call and subsequent meetings, we need to leverage the most recent rock technology in order to raise the level of productivity and the scalability of our pyramid business.

  • AI companies than blog and social-media posts. (Ziff Davis is suing OpenAI for training on its articles without paying a licensing fee.) Researchers at Microsoft have also written publicly about “the importance of high-quality data” and have suggested that textbook-style content may be particularly desirable.

    If they want quality data then, don’t kill them. Secondly, if they want us as gig workers providing content for AI, don’t act surprised when people start feeding gibberish. It’s already happening, llm are hallucinating a whole lot more than the earliest gpt 3 models. That means something, they just haven’t thought about it long enough. If a reasoning model gets stuff wrong 30 to 50% of the time, with peak of 75% bullshit rate, it’s worthless. Killing good journalism for this is so dumb.



  • I know but you see what they’re doing with ai, a small server used for piracy and sharing is punished, in some cases, worse than a theft. AI business are making bank (or are they? There is still no clear path to profitability) on troves pirated content. This (for small guys like us) is not going to change the situation. For instance, if we used the same dataset to train some AI in a garage and with no business or investor behind things would be different. We’re at a stage where AI is quite literally to important to fail for somebody out there. I’d argue that AI is, in fact going to be shielded for this reason regardless of previous legal outcomes.






  • I found this paper that seems so address this question:

    https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/abs/pii/S0026265X23005428 // perovskites demonstrate exceptional photodetection abilities characterized by high sensitivity and fast response times, rendering them ideal for the development of optical sensors for medical diagnostics and environmental monitoring. Additionally, they hold promise in gas sensing applications, detecting specific gases with high sensitivity and opening up a wide range of potential applications in industrial process control and environmental monitoring. Although perovskite materials have gained attention due to their unique properties, their stability in the presence of moisture or oxygen remains a significant challenge and is an active area of research. // this study provides a comprehensive evaluation of recent applications of perovskite materials-based sensors. Specifically, the focus is on chemiresistive gas sensors based on perovskite oxides and fluorescence/photoelectrochemical sensors based on halide perovskites

    This is actually a really good paper, but i’m skimming it to find the references to the stability of peroskite…but i’m not good at doing this on a mobile device.
