@vitt2tsnoc So much of this comes down to planning objections against masts. It happened where I used to live. So it may be our fellow citizens rather than the mobile cos most to blame

NASA can have astronauts live streaming from the actual MOON while Three can’t sort 5G on Winchester High Street.

Let me walk you through what happened one hour before Trump announced the five day moratorium on Iran strikes. $1.5 billion in notional S&P E-mini futures contracts. Four to six times normal activity. One hour before the announcement. Simultaneously, $192 million in crude oil futures purchased at the same time. They made between $300 and $400 million dollars off those trades. Trump claimed he spoke to an Iranian official to negotiate the moratorium. The Iranians said that person doesn't exist and the conversation never happened. This is not the first time. It has happened multiple times. He says something. The trade goes on. He says another thing. The market moves. But whatever you call it — they are laughing at you and they are laughing at me while they do it. Hunter Biden sold a painting and Washington lost its mind. These people are making hundreds upon hundreds of millions of dollars trading on information that only exists inside the most powerful office in the world. I think we are dramatically underreporting how much money is actually being made here. This isn't politics anymore. This is a financial operation running out of the White House.

And then I see this. I really don't understand some of my fellow british (or eligible to vote) citizens. Reform will destroy the country and instill even more xenophobia as well as incompetence. Do people possess critical thinking ability?

Reform bounce back to 30% in our latest voting intention, 9pts ahead of the Conservatives who are just ahead of Labour. ➡️ REF UK 30% (+3) 🌳 CON 21% (+1) 🌹 LAB 19% (nc) 🌍 GREEN 12% (nc) 🔶 LIB DEM 11% (-3) ❓OTH 4% (nc) 🟡 SNP 2% (-1) N = 2,003 | 28-30/3| Change w 25/03

whilst at the same time of course also trying to work with US as best we can (that is difficult with trump) - many great people, companies. Long term maybe that is indeed better for the globe.

For the UK it's clear we need to form alliances and deals more broadly. Closest has to be europe and the EU - my gosh we were crazy with brexit. And it also means wherever we find a partner in some areas - Canada, China, India,

Daily Mail. Always on the wrong side of history. It started with support for Hitler, Mussolini and Oswald Mosley. Continued with fawning coverage and praise for Johnson even as Brexit shown to be disastrous. Worshipped Truss, then Farage and Reform. Now a cheerleader for Trump.

@ShunuSweet I think there’s a lot to be said for more smaller, open weight models. Some of is the industry and trying to make these not viable. No doubt the tech is world changing but high end models imo should only be for a small part of the workload

It is precisely because I want AI to be democraticized and be in as many people's hands as possible, that I want the bubble to burst. Think of how the dotcom crash had immediately brought about cheap broadbands. We can have the same for AI.

Thinking AI is gonna die is huge cope. We should hope the RAM market returns to normal as soon as possible, of course, but we're never going back to a world without LLMs.

@ShunuSweet @Margrieticus I am a software engineer. Using Claude and others and found it so so useful . Not as ever knowing what you want and being quite descriptive is importance. I also tend to bounce my initial ideas/specs between multiple models for reviews .

x.com/shunusweet/sta… I don’t understand this take. Programming has never been more accessible for the average person. The ceiling might get higher but so will the floor, wouldn’t you agree?
Sweet Summer Shunü (甜夏淑女) - LIFE💍🖤🧡🖤🧡🖤💍@ShunuSweet

@fhcluk I code for a personal project that's quite specific, but I'm not a professional SWE. So far Claude hasn't been able to be of that much of a use outside some tedious but mundane functions.

Reports coming out that more senior Trump officials are planning on resigning over Trump's war in Iran. All is not well.
