Het valt me net op dat als ik jouw top post open in een nieuwe tab, dat mijn comments dan niet zichtbaar zijn in de thread. Dat zijn van die aparte fediverse dingen, die denk ik redelijk wat nieuwe fedizens uiteindelijk weer naar andere oplossingen doen kijken na verloop van tijd.

Xandy Peters' #knitting tutorial for weaving in ends as you go:

I wish I'd learned this trick a decade ago.
@WizardOfDocs That’s what I do to catch overlong floats in Fair Isle knitting. Why didn’t I think of using it to weave in ends? Every day’s a school day.

like, what actually happens? do they have quantized models that they can route all queries through when they are under high demand?
and if thats the case, the implication that you have a random change to get a significantly worse model while paying the same prices for whats labelled as the same model is uhhh, fascinating, and seems like a massive potential for regulatory conflict

Feltrinelli continua a mangiarsi case editrici:
@leodurruti
Saggiatore che già non era nota per una gestione illuminata delle persone che ci lavorano, nonostante la qualità libertaria di alcuni dei libri che pubblica, situazione che certo non migliorerà con il consolidamento di feltrinelli nella proprietà.

Is anyone working on a federated customer relationship management system? (I'm not even sure it would be a good idea)
Time to put a little Cuba flag next to our names, while we watch helplessly the US destroy another country:

I expect American people strongly disagreeing with their government here by simply reminding us that they don't like their President, but otherwise, they'll keep on letting him do as he pleases...
@paternoster This is the way. ❤️
@lzg Yes because what I need in the moment when goons are kidnapping my neighbors is some clanker to tell me what Karl Marx would have to say about it.
I love how the example in the image is "Why do protests fail?" and how you can't look at what's in the dataset.
I know it's super judgey of me but if you have activism questions and you can't talk to any other people about them at all, you're going to have a hard time with real-world activism.
@jessamyn @lzg It’s this, really, among all the ways in which this is a terrible idea. The only theory I’m interested in is that which follows practice, not that which proposes to precede (or supplant!) it.
The only version of this tool that might conceivably be useful would *by virtue of that very utility* represent a terrible point of vulnerability. Whatever happened to developing one’s own capacity for action, informed by thought?

me: "With all that enshittification going on, at least we can rely on Wikipedia."
Wikipedia: "hold my beer"
its so fascinating to me that model performance can fluctuate so strongly on a day-to-day basis. Why is claude actually performing significantly worse right now? does anyone have a good writeup of why exactly this happens? like, more than just 'overcapacity'? marginlab.ai/trackers/cla...
