Need to pack up and get out of NYC before they ban private car travel.

if you don't understand 1. why they're pouring so much money into AI despite no returns and 2. what their "plan" is when millions are out of work, the economies crashing, climate change has destroyed the livability in whole states etc, then read this.

@KYszczynski @TSoS_ Leto 2 does this, the framing narrative of God Emperor is that the text itself is compiled from the last volume of Leto's diary, whose full text fills a city-sized vault under his Citadel.

@TSoS_ as a historian by education it's insane to me that they basically had the exact memories of millions of people who lived throughout history, including like, early and bronze age humans, and they weren't bothered to record them

The scene in the book makes it very clear that most people do not remember Hitler. They have a very small set of data left by the Butlerians, but Paul has the memory of all his ancestors, which means in his mind, there are first hand accounts of the Nazis and the Holocaust.

On the contrary, it's the dumbest part of Dune: Messiah and I don't believe for a second that they'd even remember Hitler's name 10,000 years in the future.

Modern escapism is wishing you were a minimum wage worker in 1995

@FacesMice @DogPhysiognomy @HMBohemond There's a Van Gogh painting (Cottages at Cordeville) that has survived in a Bene Gesserit archive the whole time, and the Ixians also reconstructed a moment from Van Gogh's mind by analyzing the brushstrokes in the painting.

@DogPhysiognomy @HMBohemond Yeah definitely not. Only remember the name. I think in Chapterhouse it mentions they vaguely know who Vincent Van Gogh was?

This is actually insane.
Dude hard-coded a WebAssembly (WASM) interpreter into the weights of a transformer, losslessly.
In essence, a computer is running inside a LLM that can actually run computations, not infer or guess a calculation like most do today.
Christos Tzamos@ChristosTzamos
1/4 LLMs solve research grade math problems but struggle with basic calculations. We bridge this gap by turning them to computers. We built a computer INSIDE a transformer that can run programs for millions of steps in seconds solving even the hardest Sudokus with 100% accuracy

@GlenntheGolden1 Bad lighting is probably an 80/20 issue that you could run a local or state-level campaign on in most places. Anyone old enough to vote remembers how much better is was.

My most right wing coded view is that the switch away from sodium lights to LED lights in cities actually WAS done to demotivate the urban core.
