I'v been heads down in building a foundation for how apps should made in the future. TLDR: Apps are ephemeral, created on the spot to solve a problem right now. What needs to remain is the data

The easiest way to get started is to sign up for an account right here console.rool.dev and you'll be Rooling in less than 30 seconds

Can't deny that I also built Rool to be a powerful alternative to ChatGPT, made in Europe Rool is the perfect foundation for building connected AI-powered apps, but it is also a chat with a powerful memory. Research, edit images, and collaborate with other users into a Rool

@KarstenCapion @JoachimBOlsen Atomkraft er ikke specielt billigt. Det gode ved atomkraft er at det er stabilt når vinden ikke blæser og solen ikke skinner, samtidig med at det er CO2 neutralt og ikke forurener miljøet.

Hvis atomkraft er så billigt, hvorfor placerer de energitunge datacentre sig så i Danmark, hvor de ikke kan få adgang til den påståede billige strøm? Og hvorfor investerer Texas stort set udelukkende i vind og sol? Er de også blevet hippier @JoachimBOlsen? bt.dk/debat/bt-mener…

@ylecun Trump's pet-eating claims are ridiculos, and its useful to hear that he thinks these things. What I really dislike, is when people attemt to use law to shut him up or punish him for his views. Chomsky got it right. You don't

I'm old enough to remember that in France in the 1960s and 1970s, far-right chauvinists were accusing Portugese immigrants of eating cats. It's an old trope. Today, making such an accusation publicly against an ethnic group violates laws against "incitement to racial hatred" in most of Europe. You may get sued, get a fine, and get blocked from running for office. Elon and other American 1st Amendment maximalists will scream "tyranny!" But anti-hate speech laws are the way European countries have learned to protect themselves against fascist takeovers. And they sure know what they're talking about.

I just tried OpenAI o1. I wanted to test its ability to reason about a genuinely new scientific idea. Although it was fun, it illustrated to me that o1 still can't think outside the box in the way that is needed to generate genuinely new understanding. The conversation was about panpsychism. I asked o1 to help me think about how hypothetical proto-consciousness features of elementary particles could be formulated to explain particle properties that are otherwise considered fundamental, such as mass, spin, or charge. proto-consciousness -> mass, spin, charge, etc In it's response, it kept falling back to wanting to derive proto-consciousness from fundamental principles, rather than the other way around, implicitly falling into emergentist reasoning. So, o1 is certainly great at exploring current human knowledge, but I doubt it is useful for generating new knowledge in the true sense of the word. Human creativity, inspiration, and genius still have a role to play - at least for now.

@stats_feed Just like the last time you posted this overview, let me point out that the Danish flag, known as the Dannebrog, is first indisputably attested in the Gelre Armorial around 1350, although written sources claim it had been in use earlier.

Which world flags have been in continuous use the longest: 1. Denmark 🇩🇰: 1625 2. Netherlands 🇳🇱: 1660 3. Nepal 🇳🇵: 1743 4. United Kingdom 🇬🇧: 1801 5. Chile 🇨🇱: 1817 6. Argentina 🇦🇷: 1818 7.

In this case, the numbering is simply given for convenience.

@stats_feed The Beatles

Name a band whose most famous member is not the lead singer. 🤔

@TBregnballe @pelledragsted Ok, god pointe. Men min er også god, ikke?

Så har Frankrig fået en premierminister fra et parti som næsten ingen franskmænd stemte på, og som vil det modsatte af det parti som vandt valget. Folkets vilje - not so much.

@stats_feed Marquis de Lafayette

Name a famous French person without using Google

@pelledragsted Den omfordeling består i at der skal ansættes en nogle offentligt ansatte til at administrere den ordning, og så er der også nogle IT selskaber der tjener en flok millioner. Jobskabelse gennem mere bureaukrati. Hvis regeringen vil lette skatten, så let dog skatten!

Hvis nogen er i tvivl om at Håndværkerfradraget er omfordeling fra bund til top, så se denne graf og læs artiklen nyheder.tv2.dk/politik/2024-0…

@stephen_housman @stats_feed @elonmusk 2+2 is 5, the Earth is flat, Man was never on the moon ... try a defamation case on that :-)

@cwilstrup @stats_feed @elonmusk Actually they do need to be true if it isn’t nice. Otherwise you have a defamation case.

Free speech is the foundation of of democracy

@stats_feed @elonmusk Yep. And importantly, opinions don't have to be nice or even true to be protected.

Freedom of speech is the right to express opinions and ideas without fear of censorship, retaliation, or legal consequences. It is a human right that is protected by several international agreements, including:  United Nations Universal Declaration of Human Rights 
Article 19 of this declaration protects the right to freedom of opinion and expression. It also includes the right to seek, receive, and share information and ideas through any media. 
 Human Rights Act 
Article 10 of this act protects freedom of expression in the UK. It includes the right to hold and share opinions, as well as to communicate and express oneself in any medium. 
 Freedom of speech is also protected in the United States by the First Amendment, which was adopted as part of the Bill of Rights. The Bill of Rights was a response to concerns that the Constitution placed too much power in the federal government

@stats_feed Old age claimed the life of approximately 12% of the world's population in the same time span. (with a few assumptions about life expectancy and global age distribution at the time)

World War II claimed the lives of approximately 3% of the world's population by the time it ended in 1945.

@pelledragsted Ha ha. De har dumpet grundlæggene økonomi for dummies.

Det kunne regeringen lære noget af. At eje andre meneskers hjem skal ikke være en guldrandet forretning

@ylecun @elonmusk It would very much serve US democracy well to prohibit electronic voting and go back to paper ballots - just like we in Denmark It is not anti-tech, it is just one of those areas where efficiency is a distant second to trust and transparency.

@elonmusk You are undermining democracy by spewing crazy-ass conspiracy theories that erode the public's trust in democratic institutions. Non-citizens can not and do not vote.

I agree

@stats_feed @realDonaldTrump Norwegians, is this true? Do you really tip that much?

How much you should tip restaurant staff: 🇺🇸 USA: 20% 🇨🇦 Canada: 15-20% 🇳🇴 Norway: 10-20% 🇲🇽 Mexico: 15% 🇦🇷 Argentina: 10-15% 🇷🇺 Russia: 10-15% 🇸🇦 Saudi Arabia: 10-15% 🇦🇪 UAE: 10-15% 🇮🇱 Israel: 12% 🇪🇸 Spain: 10% 🇫🇷 France: 10% 🇬🇷 Greece: 10% 🇮🇹 Italy: 10% 🇪🇬 Egypt: 10% 🇰🇪 Kenya: 10% 🇸🇪 Sweden: 10% 🇿🇦 South Africa: 10% 🇹🇷 Turkey: 10% 🇺🇾 Uruguay: 10% 🇬🇧 UK: 10% 🇺🇦 Ukraine: 10% 🇮🇳 India: 7-10% 🇳🇱 Netherlands: 5-10% 🇩🇪 Germany: 5-10% 🇮🇩 Indonesia: 5-10% 🇻🇪 Venezuela: 5-10% 🇻🇳 Vietnam: 5-10% 🇧🇩 Bangladesh: 2-10% 🇦🇺 Australia: 0% 🇨🇳 China: 0% 🇩🇰 Denmark: 0% 🇯🇵 Japan: 0% 🇳🇬 Nigeria: 0% 🇸🇬 Singapore: 0% 🇰🇷 South Korea: 0% Note: tipping amounts were sourced from each country’s TripAdvisor tipping guide and checked against over sources. ‘No tip’ is suggested if tips are only locally suggested for exceptional service or if tipping is uncommon.

NO TAX ON TIPS!

@JesperWissing @hrmarcussen Okay. Det ser ud til at det er rigtig nok. Jeg har ikke kunnet finde referencer der underbygger mit udsagn.

@cwilstrup @hrmarcussen

Jeg forstår ikke sådan noget her. Hverken det kloge i at sænke alderen eller den politiske drivkraft bag ønsket. Der kommer jeg simpelthen til kort.

@ClaesKnudsen @hrmarcussen Det er nok for tidligt. Noget tyder på at vores kognition er klar til at navigere i trafikken noget før vi fylder 18, men at vi omkring 18 og fremefter bliver ret uansvarlige.

@cwilstrup @hrmarcussen Men så er det da en god idé at sænke alderen til 10 år!
