I think I just killed Claude ;) ... So, I was watching a video about finding a working parker square (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=stpiBy6gWOA) ... and people have already tested all numbers up to 19 digits (insane). So, just for fun, I asked Claude AI to find it. It has now been running for 20 minutes ;)
It's like in that Star Trek episode "Wolf in the Fold", where Spock asks a computer to calculate "the last digit of Pi"
So, here is something fun. I came across a video of someone trying to upscale old Sierra games from their original vector data. But then I though, what if we just ask an AI to do it. So here is Space Quest III in its original DOS form, and as an AI re-imagined version.
(and here is a link to the YouTube video I watched: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z9Yp9S23ICo)
So get this... back in 2023, I bought a 20 TB harddisk for DKK 2,599 (€350) ... now, the exact same model is DKK 9,150 (EUR 1,225)
I came across an old video (1987) talking about the amazing speeds of the Cray2 super computer. So I compared it to my 6 year old laptop.
My laptop's CPU is about 100x faster than Cray2, and my graphic card is about 5000x faster.
I will never understand why people setup security cameras that aren't able to record ... you know, thieves. This is a picture shared on my local FB Group today, of two thieves. But, I mean... what the f... is the point of this camera?
The second image is from a tracking company, but again, when the light turned on around the house, it completely blinded the camera.
Seriously, people. Use cameras that actually work. Test them at night. If you can't see the person's face, they are pointless.
It's happening... the robots now have more rights that us humans ;) ... "for all humans in your organization"
Michelle Manafy🤨 We’re starting to see a new kind of bias emerge in AI-assisted hiring: systems that favor content that mirrors their own patterns. That means even stronger, human-written resumes can be disadvantaged--not because of quality, but by stylistic mismatch. So generic and pattern-driven will be elevated over interesting and creative.

Here is the link to the code: https://github.com/Baekdal/Inline-Terminal-image-viewer
One of the problems I have always had when doing data analysis in Python is that it is running in the terminal, and terminals look like something from the 1960s.
What if, for instance, I'm creating a graph or an image?
Well, by default, I would either have to save that as a file and then open it, or call .show(), which would show the graph in a second window. But, what I want is to show the graph inline as an actual pixel-perfect image.
Well... look at this (see link in comment)
