It stopped people asking about the Epstein files.

... I don't think it stopped people from talking about it, though. That gambit has failed.

Oh thats great.

I also use the wallpaper on https://hplovecraft.com/ as my actual wallpaper.


These are great, but the effect breaks down with digital fonts since every glyph instance is the same. There would have to be slight variations of each, and other imperfections caused by a typewriter or printing process.

I'm not sure I like the effect of the font in the article. The subtle vertical position differences and inconsistent kerning are distracting. Typewriters and physical printing are not sloppy in that sense.


I've seen "handwritten" fonts in the past that used ligatures to have three or four variations of each letter, which makes it a lot less obvious.

People that I'm currently working with are using AI to try to extract data from the text of published papers, getting access to raw data sets doesn't seem to be a priority.


The data is supposed to be available from the authors in almost all cases, but in many (most?) cases the authors won't provide it.


It should be easily accessed without even having to ask (links should be automatically provided and maintained by whatever entity published the paper).


Britain (technically England) has prosecuted a monarch [1].

>Charles was tried, convicted, and executed for high treason in January 1649. The monarchy was abolished and the Commonwealth of England was established as a republic. The monarchy was restored in 1660, with Charles's son Charles II as king.

lol and immediately restored the monarchy with his son


There have been comments that some leading AI researchers were switching away from working on language models to do stuff with "real world data".


What do you mean?


Meaning a GPT but next token is a live sensor reading or a servo angle or accelerometer state. Then connect that GPT with an actual LLM as a controller and you (hopefully) have a physical machine with arms, legs and a mind.


The countries that the ships are registered in are not going to do anything if they are seized and scrapped.


There is Butler's own book "War is a Racket" [1] too.

Yes! But after reading the two I'd honestly recommend gangsters of capitalism as it explains how his exploits directly benefited American corporate imperialism.


There have been statements that Venezuela "stole US oil" as justification for it. The oil in question is under Venezuela.

Looks like a resumption of the Banana Wars [1] to me.

The original Apricot was basically a luggable Sirius 1. ACT was the European distributor of the Sirius.

The Olivetti M24 was a PC compatible.


NPU support in general seems to be moving pretty fast, it shares a lot of code with the graphics drivers.
