@dicenbuttons Y'know, as much as I get how incredibly bad climate change is and how much work I've put into stopping oil and gas...
We've had random March snows out of nowhere here my whole life. This isn't a new thing. This is an old thing. And it's okay. Enjoy it. ^_^

@dicenbuttons (The biggest one I can remember was... '97? I think '97. March snow with six inches of accumulation in the side yard. Almost entirely gone the next day. It was _amazing_ and we loved it.)

It's an old thing here certainly, but not a common thing. 1997 was almost 30 years ago, which is a long while back.
Wife and I are enjoying the snow, wishing it didn't come with a power outage, and taking the day as it comes.
At least this won't be an "everything is covered in an inch of ice and the power is out for two weeks" event. Don't recall the year/season (20ish years back) but that was gnarly.

@dicenbuttons Sure! But there were others before and after. '97 (or whenever) was just the biggest one. :D

@dicenbuttons the snow on the cherry blossoms trips me out. Classic spring time flower, dusted in snow

@dicenbuttons snow in March isn't that unusual, and we'll all be grateful for the water this summer
But next we'll be having a heat problem. Wild swinging? That's climate change

OpenAI supera i propri limiti in materia di sorveglianza di massa con il contratto con il Pentagono
OpenAI si è aggiudicata un contratto con il Dipartimento della Difesa (non era Guerra?, ndr) a di scapito della rivale Anthropic, approfittando di un accordo saltato quando il CEO del concorrente, Dario Amodei, aveva insistito per inserire nel contratto delle limitazioni all’uso della propria IA per armi completamente autonome e per la sorveglianza di massa sul territorio nazionale.
Amodei aveva spiegato le sue riserve sul contratto in un post sul blog pubblicato giovedì, affermando che la società non voleva che nessuna agenzia utilizzasse Claude per creare un quadro dettagliato e accurato della vita privata dei cittadini collegando grandi set di dati, il tutto senza la necessità di un mandato. Ha fatto riferimento all'acquisto da parte del governo statunitense di enormi set di dati relativi alle posizioni delle persone, alle abitudini di navigazione sul web e ad altre informazioni, tipicamente da broker di dati.
L'intelligenza artificiale (succedeva anche prima, ndr) potrebbe essere utilizzata per riunire tutte queste fonti di dati e trarre conclusioni su una determinata persona o su intere popolazioni, rappresentando una minaccia senza precedenti per la privacy.

The man who runs our corner store (dépanneur) was murdered Thursday morning. There was a candlelight vigil tonight with a couple of hundred of our neighbors. I don't have much to say except that every life touches so many others. #montreal

Ehi, novaxcinating, date i dati col dating! 😁 😄 🤣
Non ne sapevo nulla, ma l'app di dating per i non vaccinati Covid è una cazzo di idea geniale per raschiare il fondo del barile.

i mean i know the tech-bro type, and ever since John Carmack revealed some profoundly bad takes I have been careful about putting people on a pedestal just due to technical prowess. people don't typically become my friend just because they are good engineers, i like to become friends with people that make me laugh, who can be real with me, vulnerable, frank, and generous with knowledge and experience.
the kind of qualities that don't typically make me think someone's ethical machinery is broken.

We report: mid-March, it still gets properly cold. It is freezing out here, especially when the sun is gone for long stretches of time. The wind is whipping our hair into our eyes while we watch bright green surge out of the ground; a strange colour after all these months.
