The crypto market is highly volatile, so I think it’s better to keep my money in the traditional financial system...

Much darker ideas, which we might have initially dismissed as jokes, have already become part of our social reality, being normalized little by little through repetition, don't you think so?

The differences between the APIs of numpy, cupy and torch are so fascinating.... ``` >>> import torch as np >>> np.arange(10) tensor([0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9]) >>> a = np.zeros(20) >>> a[19:-1:-2] = np.arange(10) ``` Torch doesn't let you have ranges that go backwards 🤣 Would love more consistency

To me, the biggest problem with "proof of human origin" is that "human-created" vs "AI-created" is a false binary. Most art and code I create involves many rounds of interaction between me and models. I suspect most interesting things made this decade will be like this https://x.com/trentmc0/status/1794333215290982702
