Wishing all the women out there well on International Women’s Day today. You are amazing and the world would do well to celebrate you *all year long* instead of a single day.

I myself am looking forward to the day where we finally elect a woman to lead our nation, I have no doubt whomever she is she’ll do an incredible job.

Since its Pokémon Day, I should probably remind you that I make the nicest Pokédex app out there, Ketchup: https://apps.apple.com/ie/app/ketchup-for-pok%C3%A9mon/id6477297968

As a software developer who took an elective in neural networks - when people call LLMs stochastic parrots, that's not criticism of their results.

It's literally a description of how they work.

The so-called training data is used to build a huge database of words and the probability of them fitting together.

Stochastic because the whole thing is statistics.
Parrot because the answer is just repeating the most probable word combinations from its training dataset.

Calling an LLM a stochastic parrot is lile calling a car a motorised vehicle with wheels. It doesn't say anything about cars being good or bad. It does, however, take away the magic. So if you feel a need to defend AI when you hear the term stochastic parrot, consider that you may have elevated them to a god-like status, and that's why you go on the defense when the magic is dispelled.

Did you know we added the ability to end tasks directly from the taskbar in Windows 11?

So you don't need to open task manager - when enabled you can just right click an app and end it from that menu

This is the best photo I could get of this bumper sticker while I was at a stop light.

For those with visual challenges, it reads “trans people existing does nothing negative to your life, you cry baby bitch.”
