Admittedly I would probably say this, but I thought this article was a very insightful analysis of the problems with building AI agents, based on real experience.

Just thinking of the Harvard computer women a century ago, who looked at images of the universe like this by eye to make discoveries. They revolutionized astronomy, and Rubin definitely will too!
Also, wow how excited would Henrietta Leavitt and Williamina Flemming be to see this! π€©

damn yes needed this today
why does ml actually work? i understand backpropagation but that's about it. are we "looking for a function"? why are these functions particularly "arrivable at" via ml and transformers or diffusion? what is it about nn? any compelling evidence it's "enough" or are there other structural approaches?

Wasn't expecting Cory @booker.senate.gov blocking senate business with an actual in fact standing filibuster to protest what the fuck is going on but I'll take it. @ossoff.bsky.social @ossoff.senate.gov @warnock.senate.gov @warren.senate.gov @sanders.senate.gov &c can ask questions to work in breaks
Ooo, I know this one!

destroying it _is_ success for doge. they want to "accidentally" break it in a way that congress won't be able to do the appropriations to fix.

To be fair, you say "me" but it's actually Trump.
The school isn't being selfish here. Giving up an entire incoming class because they can't guarantee they won't be stranded, or worse, deported is a huge blow to their institution, as well.

Watching my 401K drop like a stone, as Iβm sure many are, now is a perfect example why Social Security must be protected, and not privatized. It is also a great rebuttal against those who say people should just save on their own and invest in the market. Howβd that work out in 1929?
The Trump-Musk fiasco is of a piece with our much larger slide into "clientelism" or "personalist" rule. Trump is now discovering it has a downside: He's corruptly giving Musk extraordinary power, but now Trump is yoked to Musk's epic failures.

Be brave, and be brave in numbers.
that's the sovereign citizen argument in a nutshell. people deciding neither to be protected by the us or subject to its laws, not "subject to us jurisdiction" in any way. would be hilarious for both arguments to land simultaneously.
read a few sections from the odyssey in high school but it was relatively brief (this would have been around 1990).
