@johnkrausphotos @waitbutwhy the alpha zero v stock fish matches were very popular. the chess youtube agadameter got huge views covering the bot v bot match. and there was a beauty to some of the alpha zero moves.

@waitbutwhy AI content, such as art and chess matches, feels constructed, quite literally by definition "artificial," while human content feels "created" There will always be a desire for human creativity, especially when documenting real-world events, such as through photography.

We're far more interested in a chess match between grandmasters than between AIs, even though the AIs are way better. I'm noticing the same thing with video and art. Once I realize it's made by AI I lose interest, no matter how good it is. Maybe a good sign for human creators?

@PostFromProtest @ttbs1livec58408 @StanCollymore fundraising laws only kick in if your stated goal is above a certain amount 5k iirc in anycase people who donated after. a certain point knew it would be not going to the carer.

@ttbs1livec58408 @alan1114564 @StanCollymore Even if that happened, there are rules set in law. A request needed to be made to the charity commission (for permission) as no secondary purpose was stated in the original appeal (police and emergency services aren't even mentioned for example).

The latest message from Clare at the carers regarding Brendans Gofundme page, set up after his car was burned out by arsonists during a racist attack last week.

@frown_nworf @SRFielding72 @StanCollymore no she should be bound by the terms she stated all the money raised when the fund raiser said all was going to the carer, should go to him when she changed the terms to say all. additional monies would go to other causes, all that money should go to those causes. its simple

@frown_nworf @SRFielding72 @StanCollymore yes, so anyone who donated after the target had been surpassed did so with the knowledge that the carer would not be getting that donation.

@PostFromProtest @StanCollymore once the goal. was reached they made clear where addtional funds would go. so you are correct they have to donate the rest to staff and charities

@StanCollymore They can't legally change the perameters of the fundraiser. If Brendan wants to share the money with other causes, that is fine, but she can't change the cause from that which raised the money. This is ending up in court.

@frown_nworf @SRFielding72 @StanCollymore it was made clear that additional money would go to local. charities and other staff. people donated with that in mind

@OneBadDude_ @libsoftiktok if you belive kehlif is a man, because she has xy chromosomes,then you belive that some men can get pregnant as people with the condition khalif has often have xy chromosones and are able to get pregnant.

@libsoftiktok He belongs in prison . The world has witnessed a crime.

BREAKING: Imane Khalif, a male, just won a gold medal in women’s boxing. What a time to be alive

'They're doing all the wrong things. We don't want to be part of that.' An uncle in Middlesbrough urges Muslims to not descend to the level of these far-right thugs. There are many racists in the media looking to further their demonisation agenda. Don't give them any ammo.

@Sozzinski @wierdohairdo @DPJHodges @AndrewGoldthor3 to be clear i am calling the people who tried to burn down a hotel housing asylum speakers racist. and people chanting "get them out". racism is still a cancer and i am not ideologically oppoesed to slashing net immigration: make the case, i can be persuded. i voted leave.

Equally, you can't acknowledge that people with opinions like you have caused what is happening. A second generation immigrant attacked white children, murdering three of them. Yet your only response is to call those rioting over this act of terror 'racists'. Same with the thousands of young white girls groomed and raped by South Asian immigrants. Or 7/7 and Manchester Arena. Anyone who is outraged by these FACTS is 'racist' according to you. It's been a long-time coming I'm afraid. What I don't understand - and I'm assuming that you're an intelligent chap - is how you simply cannot envisage this not being about 'racism' but is due to a justified anger and resentment. Because you blindness is one of the things that has caused these riots.

There's no political justification for the disorder we've seen. But if people want to get into the blame game, these are the facts. The Tories were in power for 14 years. Labour have been in power for 4 weeks. Blaming Keir Starmer and Yvette Cooper for this is just ridiculous.

@wierdohairdo @Sozzinski @DPJHodges @AndrewGoldthor3 again you just cannot bring yourself to condem and acknowledge the problem when you have people trying to set fire to a hotel because there are foriegn people inside, you still have to both sides it. at least people are outing themselves now.

@alan1114564 @Sozzinski @DPJHodges @AndrewGoldthor3 You are right,anti white racism has been growing and tolerated by police and government alike

@wierdohairdo @Sozzinski @DPJHodges @AndrewGoldthor3 getting "mostly peaceful protests" vibes from you. this weekend exposed that we have a deep problem with racism in this country. if you cant see it, and call it out you are part of the problem.

@alan1114564 @Sozzinski @DPJHodges @AndrewGoldthor3 Looting shops and attacking innocents is totally wrong,but that's all they'll focus ,like you,they'll ignore the peaceful ones with legitimate concerns,the Labour regime will be rubbing their hands in delight,they can now bring in all those authoritarian laws

@wierdohairdo @Sozzinski @DPJHodges @AndrewGoldthor3 you dont remember people condeming BLM riots? and was there racial violence during those protests? what happened over the weekend was disgusting. if you can't call it out without equivocation you are part of the problem

@alan1114564 @Sozzinski @DPJHodges @AndrewGoldthor3 It's only racist on one side though ,don't remember all this rhetoric during the BLM rioting,looting and violence against white police and members of the public

@Sozzinski @DPJHodges @AndrewGoldthor3 @wierdohairdo it is far right hatred. nazi tattoos, burning down hotels containing asylum seekers, pulling asians out of cars. the disorder was and is fuelled by racism. a stain on our country

Jesus Dan, I do believe you really cannot see why this was incendiary. He is calling genuine concerns about massive immigration - much of it undocumented - as a response three little girls being slaughtered 'far right hatred'. Now he's more hated than Thatcher was in the height of the miners strike, and he hasn't been in power a month yet. He's got to go.

@saffronroseacts its heartbreaking. thought we were better than this.

My DM is back open again. I had to close because it was too much. But if you identify any of those far-right who set a fire to the hotel in Rotherham. You know what to do.

Do you know how sick you have to be to sit there like this and smile whilst they're smashing up and setting a hotel on fire that holds asylum seekers. There could've been kids in there.

SHARE THESE FACES: BARBARIC scenes at a hotel in Rotherham. Asylum seekers inside, they’ve set the hotel on fire 😞 people will die if this carries on!!! Where is the army? How do they know if children are inside?? HORRIFYING #rotherham #riots #FarRightThugs

Make him famous twitter.

@CountDankulaTV nothing brings sectarians together more than racism, eh

Just saw photos of what's happening in Belfast. Both of them standing together. Never expected that in a million years.

@TrungTPhan drop "the" Concorde is one of a few machines / brands that doesnt take "the"

The Concorde could fly London to New York in ~3.5 hours (half the time of a normal airliner). In operation from 1976 to 2003, the plane was a technical marvel and faster than the speed of sound. But it had poor business economics. Let’s start with the insane specs: ▫️Got as high as 10k miles ▫️Flew around earth in 30 hours ▫️Mach 2.04 speed (more than 2x speed of sound) ▫️Arrived in New York at earlier time than it left London (banker folk loved this) ▫️Delta wings and nose tip that could point down (so pilots could see runway, because it had to land at specific angle) Jointly run by British Airways and Air France, there were only 14 Concordes put to work (flew 50,000 total flights). What was wrong with the business model? ▫️SMALL MARKET: The thin aerodynamic design could only seat 109, so tickets were very expensive: $11k (a Boeing 747 can do >800 passengers) ▫️HUGE MAINTENANCE: Planes got so hot at the max height (110 degrees), that they expanded 30cm and sealant for fuel hardened. It took 28 hours to turnaround the plane (a normal one can do <2 hours). ▫️OUTRAGEOUS FUEL NEEDS: Each flight required 28,000 litres, for max 109 passengers. Commmercial planes needed 4x less fuel on a per passenger basis. ▫️NOISE RESTRICTIONS: Many cities wouldn’t allow the Concorde to fly because of how glass-shatteringly long it is on take-off, which limited destinations. *** Development of the Concorde — it had an “e” to placate the French — cost $2.8B and was paid for by the UK and French governments. The airlines were actually able to fly profitably for a number of years. But the economics were warped because the planes were given to them for free and the airlines didn’t have to capitalize costs. The business ultimately shuttered in 2003 following a tragic crash in 2000 and industry-wide slowdown post-9/11. Will we ever have sub-4 hour flights from London to NY again? A batch of sonic plane startups could make it happen by the end of this decade.
