My 20 year old self (and current 40) are excited for this!

And no. Don't ask which fucking store in a private message. I've gone through this so many fucking times. Fix your fucking shit!

@Walgreens what the absolute fuck. I thought you were fixing this. Need my drugs. 25 people like and one person serving at pharmacy. Fix your fucking shit you gremlin fucking corpo assholes. PS: people who work at store are heroes.

@AnthropicAI what are you doing? Stop DMCAing people. It makes me not trust you and want to give other people my money. Just STOP!

@andrewmcwhae Haha just forgot the shake at the end 😂

Laziest way to pack squares

@solarise_webdev Ooooh. So nice interfaces for project guttenburg?

Pretext gives a massive performance boost for client-side pagination. An entire novel can be paginated on-the fly (with previews for each page) in 2-3ms per run vs 100ms+ for DOM Very cool and very responsive demo at pretext-stuff.solarise.dev/pagination.html (I think this is a fair comparison - there might be additional optimisations possible for the DOM approach, but can't escape the reflow trap)

@theo guess this is the kind of response you were hoping for.

@theo loving T3 code (with CC). Thank you.

@taydotfun Thanks this is really awesome !

youve seen light mode youve seen dark mode but have you ever seen sunny mode?

@SlackHQ ... what now? Your changes to whatever pops up when someone huddles you means that if I'm typing it can all of a sudden throw me into the huddle without warning. Who the %#$& is testing this? Me? Is it me who's testing it? Has @salesforce just decided to burn it down?

@rabrg Very cool. Wanted a web version. [warn mostly AI] For those who want to play online - rabrg-artificial-life.tarwin.art

for a little toy project i reproduced the quoted artificial life paper: a 2D grid of randomly generated Brainfuck programs breed and spontaneously evolve self-replicators, despite no explicit optimization functions

@JShodanVR I agree with the space problems. But the biggest problem I think is that a lot of people just don't want to spend time so disconnected from reality.

I don’t understand. This stuff is real, it exists, you can actually buy it, and yet the VR market is almost dead. What happened to the kids in the 90s who dreamed about this possibility? Why do modern kids now go crazy for games where you don’t really do anything, where at most you just swipe up and down, or spend their time screaming in stupid games that require no concentration, like amoebas with no curiosity? This stuff finally f***ing exists, and yet the videogame market pretends it’s invisible. F***! F***! F***! In 1998, when we were 13 playing Resident Evil 2 on the PlayStation with my friends, we would have killed to be able to play something like this.

@NicolaManzini @GretaThunberg Haha that is the first thing I tried too - loved driving it right UNDER San Francisco

Also it quickly become a post apocalyptic flooding simulator. #ClimateAction #sealevel #ClimateCrisis @GretaThunberg

@exQUIZitely Have you read his amazing dairies ? Was surprised at how great a read they were ! jordanmechner.com/en/books/the-m…

Most people associate the name Jordan Mechner with Prince of Persia - and that's perfectly fine. But what sometimes gets lost in that conversation is his very first published game: Karateka, from 1984. It was Karateka that pioneered rotoscoped animation in video games. Not only did he introduce an entirely new technique, but he did so while still a student at Yale and solo-developing on the game for two whole years. Karateka also introduced wordless storytelling. Simply through cutscenes and gameplay, the story unfolded before your eyes. Not a single word was spoken. So while Prince of Persia will forever be his most famous game, Karateka remains his most important one.

The chalk fairies paid a visit to the OAI offices last night. They left a giant "red line" perimeter around the entirety of the OAI building as well as some other messages for technical staff to read on their morning commute. More examples below 🧵

@MarcJBrooker Is there a guaranteed encoding - ascii, utf8, utf32, EBCDIC, Morse Code? Is it a single language? How accurate do you need?

@MarcJBrooker I'd just count a small % of data throughout file. At least if it's a human language. If it's English I'd just count spaces. If it's something like Japanese or Chinese ... actually I'd have to ask someone. Japanese possibly just chars / 2.2 ? All close enough.

Here's the technical interview question I'd actually ask. Suppose you have 5 MB of text, how would you count the words? What about 5 GB, TB, PB, EB? When would your approach change and why? What if you had to do it once, or once a week, day, hour, or second?

@sama And as much as I currently loath the stance being taken I respect your candor and willingness to participate. And the fact that most people are having a reasonable discussion.

@sama Why would you call it the "Department of War" (DoW)? Isn't the official name is "Department of Defence" (DoD)?

I'd like to answer questions about our work with the DoW and our thinking over the past few days. Please AMA.

@OpenAI Why would you even use "Department of War"? That is capitulation. It's official name is "Department of Defence".

We do not think Anthropic should be designated as a supply chain risk and we’ve made our position on this clear to the Department of War.

Yesterday we reached an agreement with the Department of War for deploying advanced AI systems in classified environments, which we requested they make available to all AI companies. We think our deployment has more guardrails than any previous agreement for classified AI deployments, including Anthropic's. Here's why: openai.com/index/our-agre…
