Shame that. Last time I drove past a college in the US it was the day the hat sorts people into fraternities or however that works and there was a great big cardboard sign on the lawn with a poignant message scribbled in sharpie: "Thank you for your daughters"
Quite the facial expressions on parents dropping off their kids and good chunk of life savings at these ivory towers.
Ah, the cycle of pizza.

I read this many times on HN. As far as I can tell Excel copied most of it about a decade later with pivot tables.
You remind me of a guy called Brian. He is a very naughty boy.
If you persist in your efforts
You can achieve dream control
..How are we feeling today, better?
Killing Caesar was a noble act
Friends, Romans, countrymen, lend me your ears;
I come to bury Caesar, not to praise him.
The evil that men do lives after them;
The good is oft interred with their bones;
So let it be with Caesar. The noble Brutus
Hath told you Caesar was ambitious:
If it were so, it was a grievous fault,
And grievously hath Caesar answer’d it.
Here, under leave of Brutus and the rest–
For Brutus is an honourable man;
So are they all, all honourable men–
Come I to speak in Caesar’s funeral.
He was my friend, faithful and just to me:
But Brutus says he was ambitious;
And Brutus is an honourable man.
He hath brought many captives home to Rome
Whose ransoms did the general coffers fill:
Did this in Caesar seem ambitious?
When that the poor have cried, Caesar hath wept:
Ambition should be made of sterner stuff:
Yet Brutus says he was ambitious;
And Brutus is an honourable man.
You all did see that on the Lupercal
I thrice presented him a kingly crown,
Which he did thrice refuse: was this ambition?
Yet Brutus says he was ambitious;
And, sure, he is an honourable man.
I speak not to disprove what Brutus spoke,
But here I am to speak what I do know.
You all did love him once, not without cause:
What cause withholds you then, to mourn for him?
O judgment! thou art fled to brutish beasts,
And men have lost their reason. Bear with me;
My heart is in the coffin there with Caesar,
And I must pause till it come back to me.Pretty much anybody who plays an instrument figures out why after a while.

I know a lot of comments here are trying to show how hip they are and that garbage on top-10 Spotify is totally good for you - commendable attitude. Truly. But happens to be misguided if you develop your ears. Which you should. Has nothing to do with being an old fogey, pop music really has gotten worse for various reasons.
Start here, maybe it will hook you: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Gt2zubHcER4
Once you understand you can't unhear it or pretend otherwise.
Somebody should just sponsor a minimal browser engine written in Rust. Bet it would be uniquely well suited for it. Wait..
This is a white whale for a lot of people.

The state of TUI on the other hand is better (posted recently, there are a few others):
Lishten, money penny, just because we have face swapping technology and voice cloning technology and deep fakes does not mean I shouldn't practice my Sean Connery impression. I admit, I may be somewhat shaken by these recent developments but I'm not shttiered.
I am against censorship, the subject itself is perfectly worthy. These particular efforts effectively mix true(ish) information with untrue information meant to inflame tensions and divisions and demoralize people.
Feeding the trolls does not increase confidence and trust in anything. When threads don't go off the rails like that, criticize away, no objections.
It doesn't really change that because that doesn't really happen. It doesn't happen because one conflict flows into the next as they are all part of the larger game. These things don't happen in a vacuum.
Nice.

Life is complicated.
P.S. - I did not support the Iraq war in 2003 or now. Just cognizant of how such things unfurl beyond the trendy self-flagellation.
I miss Baghdad Bob :(
He couldn't even donate 120 out of the 120k cards and one lambo? I'm beginning to think this whole crypto thing is sus
The problem was finding funding to pay for the operating expenses, megawatts of power, so it never got off the ground and the hardware has been turned off and decommissioned. Such a bummer.
You ran 120,000 graphics card to mine ETH and didn't end up with lambos or like... ether.. to donate to the professor along with the hardware?
What in the great googly moogly are you talking about?
Thats actually pronounced Analgesic - sir, the pills go in your mouth. These other pills, that is a suppository. Best not mix them up.
Is that by ElevenLabs? This induces the nervous sort of excitement in me.
Ho! Ho! Ho! to the bottle I go
To heal my heart and drown my woe.
Rain may fall and wind may blow,
And many miles be still to go,
But under a tall tree I will lie,
And let the clouds go sailing by. The other, less sensational possibility, she said, is that what appears to be emergent may instead be the culmination of an internal, statistics-driven process that works through chain-of-thought-type reasoning. Large LLMs may simply be learning heuristics that are out of reach for those with fewer parameters or lower-quality data.
But, she said, finding out which of those explanations is more likely hinges on a better understanding of how LLMs work at all. “Since we don’t know how they work under the hood, we can’t say which of those things is happening.”https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2kArCRjT29w
I rest my case.
Humour mon ami, pas de haine
Or so the Germans would have us believe.
Pretty much.

Ask it yourself.
- Your honor my wholly original work of Halvin and Cobbs, a cartoon of a little boy and his pet tiger is entirely original to me.
- Did you use an AI to produce it?
- See, the problem with fine art is that it's supposed to express original truths.
But who likes originality and truth?! Nobody! Lifes hard enough without it! Only an idiot would pay for it!
Popular art knows the customer is always right! People want more of what they already know they like, so popular art gives it to 'em!
- Sir, did you use an AI to plagiarize your way to an unofficial sequel of a beloved comic strip? Answer the question!
- Yesn't.For example, if a user instructs a text-generating technology to “write a poem about copyright law in the style of William Shakespeare,” she can expect the system to generate text that is recognizable as a poem, mentions copyright, and resembles Shakespeare's style.
But the technology will decide the rhyming pattern, the words in each line, and the structure of the text.
But I can certainly specify those things in the prompt. In fact I can write some of the poem and have it riff on the rest for me. And anyway how would you know whether or not and how much I was assisted by the AI. Strawberry Fields forever.
