I found a redback spider nested up in the box next to my uranium test source and I’m fighting the urge to do the funniest thing.

It’s not a strong compulsion but it’s there y’know?

Here’s the thing: AI wasn’t created by artists or writers or actors or any other creative types. It was created by those who wish they were the creative types, and want to avoid doing the thing they perceive as “work”.

Best one I saw was “AI should be doing tiresome work for creative people, not creative work for tiresome people”

"Chinese automaker BYD is rolling out cars capable of driving more than 1,300 miles without refueling or recharging"

That's New York to Miami without a recharge. US cars are lucky to get 1/4 that range.

The bar has been set pretty high.

Oh, and they are priced at $13K. Yikes.

Agreed, except for “summarization” of text that I haven’t read (e.g. “summarize this financial report for me”), because there is no way to tell if the summary is accurate and does not omit important elements.

I think Microsoft Copilot for helping coders has legs. Coding problems tend to be the same set of queries repeated over and over, with slight variations in theme: perfect for LLMs. https://cleverdevil.club/@jonathan/112504327461154045

I'm thinking, for a change, of not buying a local SIM (or eSIM) for my upcoming trip to Switzerland. It's only ten days, so if I use data sparingly and stick only to wifi on some days, I should be able to use my Australian number on Telstra's $10/day international roaming day pass, and not spend much more than a new SIM. Hmmm worth a try I think.

@ThermiteBeGiants @timrichards Vodafone roaming is very cool

@bgrinter@mastodon.sdf.org avatar

@timrichards @ThermiteBeGiants rather than stuffing with sims and temp numbers it’s nice to just use your own number - worth the $5 a day

For a simple lift such as at a railway station that only has 2 floors, I suggested a single button marked GO. It's simpler than expecting people to know what button to press.

I have seen this in action at Perth Underground station. https://aus.social/@jessta/112433585648157837

Fair point - if you're not using digital payments, you should make the effort to get used to them. Cash is (mostly) going away. (This article also contains a guide to getting started with digital.)

Cash is dead. Why are we still pretending it isn’t?

@timrichards few people in my feed who probably wrap their heads in alfoil to stop the government reading their thoughts beg to differ

Curious?

How old is this plane?
Who is doing the maintenance? It's not Boeing if it's owned by a transportation company. Boeing can't possible be held accountable for a plan that has been sold and maintained by another company.
