No #cream in #grocery stores?

It's been a few weeks now that there have been zero cream products in local grocery chains.
We figured it was the awful icy weather to blame. So a distribution issue?
We're in the US central east coast. It seems like it should have resolved by now.
There are milk products, but no cream.

I couldn't find any news about it.
My mind goes to #madcow #birdflu but maybe #immigration #ice

Anyone have information to share?

Hood River County - Creutzfeldt-Jakob Disease

"The health department is investigating three cases of the rare brain disorder Creutzfeldt-Jakob Disease (CJD) in Hood River County. These cases have been found in the past eight months, and at this time, it is not known if the cases are linked. The risk of CJD to the public is extremely low. It cannot be spread through the air, touch, social contact, or water."

ça fait plusieurs fois que je tombe sur l'idée que les performances des #LLM allaient régresser à mesure que les contenus générés par #IA pollueraient leurs datasets (#MadCow...) Mais il existe des techniques pour donner plus d'importance aux contenus originaux, et des domaines ou les IA n'apprennent que sur les données qu'elles génèrent (ex: alphago-zero). Non, ce qui peut faire régresser les LLM c'est avant tout les obstacles réglementaires : il est facile de prouver qu'une IA a été entraînée sur des données sans le consentement de leur créateur.

Huh.

Remember #MadCow (Bovine Spongiform Encephalopathy)?

It's also #Airborne!

No, it's not in the news, nor is there an outbreak, I just ran into this article while looking for something else.

Didn’t see this in 2013 #DebbieDowner #LindsayLohan clip but this is certifiably me. From the #madCow #prion disease I worried about showing up decades later circa 2000 to everyone fleeing her presence
