@davidclowery Then we will have to go back to using A1Z26 ciphers.

While most of the charlatans are hyping a societal “singularity” event brought on by AI. The actual societal nuclear bomb is going to be when quantum computing gets figured out and there is no longer any encryption. Not just going forward, but everything you did in private in the past is now public. That’s the premise of my post-apocalyptic Netflix series.

@Hustlediva1 @chelsea_janes @SNY_Mets And Mendy is gonna take the fall for Boy Genius's failures.

@chelsea_janes @SNY_Mets They are def the worst considering their payroll and the bs we’ve been gaslit with from boy genius Stearns the last 2 seasons

A lot of teams are sputtering to start the year. The Mets are hardly the worst offenders. But after what happened last year, and with a new, unproven group in place, this team needs to earn the benefit of the doubt sny.tv/articles/mets-…

@wychstreet One Two Three (1961) is second-tier-plus (cause of Cagney). Buddy Buddy (1981) is bottom tier, below the basement

Any second-tier Billy Wilder film is everyone else’s best movie

@AaronBMacLean You're contributing to an AI panic. Go do something productive like looking for drones over New Jersey

The extent to which writing by *prominent* people, on social media—but also published in the oped pages of major newspapers!—is so obviously generated (or heavily assisted) by AI is stunning. There’s so little comment on it. I feel like I’m taking crazy pills.

@EvanRobertsWFAN You left out: "Find a way to stay up, then fall asleep in the bottom of the 1st."

How will you consume the Mets late night starts this week?

@MungoJerryLTD I've always thought that case was wrongly decided.

@Watchingwheels7 “ He’s So Fine”, check out the story behind the song. It’s all on YouTube

Thanks buddy, I just think that as far as my early singles are concerned, they were all grossly different from each other, & this was deliberate. If it had not been for the fact that the director of public prosecutions had not ruled that the Lady Rose original maxi singles should be destroyed & re pressed with another song replacing “Have a Whiff on Me” I would have written three consecutive UK No 1’s. Even more weird, the BBC published a series of magazines entitled The Story of Pop, or something similar, this was around 1974, despite the fact that MJ sold millions of records by this time & had two albums in the UK charts, there was no mention of the band in the publication. By this time I had been fired by two of the original band members & had been christened Mungo Jerry by the record company & band management.✌️

@WardyNYM @Nearl33 I think Boy Genius tells Mendy who is playing

@Nearl33 He’s also never had these problems as consistently as he’s had like this. I wouldn’t lump what’s happening this year as the same as all years past. I get the point you’re trying to make however

Lindor not getting the day on the bench after Mendoza himself stated yesterday he’s not right is certainly a choice.

@powellAtlantic @alexbaldman @MetsFix His Boy Genius POBO let Diaz go for no reason and the team isn't hitting.

@alexbaldman @MetsFix Meh

From indispensible @MetsFix: Cohen has history of calling out fanbase for weak attendance. Let's do math: Family of 4=$245 for four 500 level seats; $50 parking; $32 4 sodas; $32 4 hot dogs; $20 for ice cream helmets. At $379 before dad gets a beer ($16); mom gets cocktail ($20):

@Overourwall My Sweet Lord was released in November 1970.

There is a strong argument that in terms of singles Baby Jump is the musical pivot between the 60s ( My Sweet Lord) and the 70s ( Get It On) You are right to be proud of it 🫡

@techNmak The fact that you seem not to have gotten my (clear) Shannon reference is not a propitious sign.

@Watchingwheels7 Bro, I will write an article for you👍

In 1948, a 32-year-old at Bell Labs published a paper nobody fully understood. Engineers found it too mathematical. Mathematicians found it too engineering-focused. One prominent mathematician reviewed it negatively. That paper - "A Mathematical Theory of Communication", became the founding document of the digital age. The man was Claude Shannon. Father of Information Theory. At 21, he wrote the most important master's thesis of the 20th century. Working at MIT on an early mechanical computer, Shannon noticed its relay switches had exactly two states - open or closed. He had just taken a philosophy course introducing Boolean algebra, which also operated on two values: true and false. Nobody had ever connected these two things. His 1937 thesis proved that Boolean algebra and electrical circuits are mathematically identical, and that any logical operation could be built from simple switches. Howard Gardner called it "possibly the most important, and also the most famous, master's thesis of the century." Every digital computer ever built traces back to this insight. At 29, he proved that perfect encryption exists. During WWII, Shannon worked on classified cryptography at Bell Labs. His work contributed to SIGSALY, the secure voice system used for confidential communications between Roosevelt and Churchill. In a classified 1945 memorandum, he mathematically proved the one-time pad provides perfect secrecy, unbreakable not just computationally, but provably, permanently, against an adversary with infinite power. When declassified in 1949, it transformed cryptography from an art into a science. It laid the foundations for DES, AES, and every modern encryption standard. At 32, he defined what information is. His 1948 paper introduced one equation: H = −Σ p(x) log p(x) Shannon entropy. The average uncertainty in a probability distribution. The minimum bits required to encode a message. Three things followed: > He defined the bit - the fundamental unit of all information. His colleague John Tukey coined the name. > He proved the channel capacity theorem, every communication channel has a maximum rate of reliable transmission. You can approach it. You can never exceed it. > He unified telegraph, telephone, and radio into a single mathematical framework for the first time. Robert Lucky of Bell Labs called it the greatest work "in the annals of technological thought." Where his equation lives in AI today: Cross-entropy loss - the function training every classifier and language model, is derived directly from H. Decision tree splits use information gain, which is H applied to data. Perplexity, the standard LLM evaluation metric, is an exponentiation of cross-entropy. Every time a neural network trains, Shannon's formula runs inside it. He also built the first AI learning device. In 1950, Shannon built Theseus, a mechanical mouse that navigated a maze through trial and error, learned the correct path, and repeated it perfectly. Mazin Gilbert of Bell Labs said: "Theseus inspired the whole field of AI." That same year he published the first paper on programming a computer to play chess. He co-organized the 1956 Dartmouth Workshop, the founding event of AI as a field. The man: He rode a unicycle through Bell Labs hallways while juggling. He built a flame-throwing trumpet, a rocket-powered Frisbee, and Styrofoam shoes to walk on the lake behind his house. He called his home Entropy House. When asked what motivated him: "I was motivated by curiosity. Never by the desire for financial gain. I just wondered how things were put together." In 1985, he appeared unexpectedly at a conference in Brighton. The crowd mobbed him for autographs. Persuaded to speak at the banquet, he talked briefly, then pulled three balls from his pockets and juggled instead. One engineer said: "It was as if Newton had showed up at a physics conference." He died in 2001 after a decade with Alzheimer's, the cruel irony of information slowly leaving the mind of the man who defined what information was. Claude, the AI model, is named after Claude Shannon, the mathematician who laid the foundation for the digital world we rely on today.

@LionelMedia The Captain & Tennille.

Who is this?

@NjTank99 It's Boy Genius who sabotaged the team.

It’s not even April 15th and Mets season feels over Lindor sabotaging the team and team is a mess while Mendozeoff remains employed

@WillBredderman And so much of the money goes to pay the salaries of tens of thousands of New Yorkers who work as home health aides, most of whom make less than $40k/yr.

So much of the NY economy—corner clinics, nursing homes, adult daycare, huge hospital chains—feeds off the vast underground aquifer of our costliest-in-the-nation Medicaid program And so much of the money goes not to the poor but toward six- and seven-figure salaries for the rich

@JimDMiller @davidclowery James, you clearly don't know how LLMs work, and that they are not AGI.

@davidclowery Yes, and someone yes. Here is why I think they make us obsolete. Once we are obsolete It won't be worth it to keep us around. x.com/JimDMiller/sta…

This is hilarious. Dude posting this doesn't realize the students made a fool of him. They are rightfully pointing out that he doesn't seem to believe what he's saying.

@DPLennon But David Stearns is a genius

On a boo-filled afternoon at Citi Field, where Kodai Senga was non-competitive, the Francisco Lindor mystery deepened and the sloppy #Mets slipped below .500 again. bit.ly/4t6yvGx

@daveweigel When you come to New York and you see a big building without scaffolding, you should look up and proceed carefully,

amazing angry replies here, people who have convinced themselves that these eyesores you don’t see this much of in any other city are vital and we’ll die without them

@tonywendice1954 Speaking of Billy Wilder, if you ever want to see a really bad and boring movie, see his final effort: Buddy Buddy (1981).

It's a medioce movie and Ford no more works in it that Bogart did in the original. The only good thing in it is Greg Kinnear. Billy rolled his eyes at it.

@fsem86 @draftniks @NjTank99 David Stearns IS bigger than the team. He's the Boy Genius. And we may be stuck with him for maybe as long as we were stuck with Jeff Wilpon.

@draftniks @NjTank99 Said this the day of the e trade someday we will get the story how the Mets management wanted to be bigger than the team very sad

Let’s check in on David Stearns and his Brandon Nimmo for Marcus Semien trade. #Mets
