Occasionally funny by accident.

Meta, Meta, Meta. So Meta. This Reuters report is 🔥

"Meta is earning a fortune on a deluge of fraudulent ads, documents show"

"Meta projected 10% of its 2024 revenue would come from ads for scams and banned goods, documents seen by Reuters show. And the social media giant internally estimates that its platforms show users 15 billion scam ads a day. Among its responses to suspected rogue marketers: charging them a premium for ads – and issuing reports on ’Scammiest Scammers.’

I stopped watching #TheWitcher season 4 on netflix.
The actor change of Geralt was jaring enough, but not terrible.

But the writing.. I dont know what happened to that show but this is unwatchable for me.
The third season was already lacking, but by far not as bad as this.
Sad.

Bobcat! In the backyard!

I’ve seen a lot of mutuals in northern areas posting bobcat sightings the last few days, so when the pups alerted me that something was out back, I grabbed the camera and crossed my fingers!!!

And lo - #Caturday came on a Tuesday!

My gawd the light could not have been more perfect!!!

If you ever wondered what Stonehenge looks like when you're facing the wrong direction, then do I have a treat for you.
There's even a statue of him and his cat.

LLMs are to "AI" like a blockchain is to moving a simple integer amount of money atomically between 2 remote SQL databases.

ie. horribly, almost comically inefficient, esp at scale
