Evening.

Caption was going to be "Off to Pride" but atmosphere over here got a fit of queerphobia and literally rained on our parade.

So I went to the park around the corner, found a dry spot below a tree (yes, that's how much it's raining... we could have marched under umbrellas if didn't mind everything being wet around us), and told graphically Mother Earth how are we feeling today.

Sincerely, from the ass of the goddamn world, this old tranny that has no more fucks to give.

We'll get our parade, eventually. We always do.

I've been thinking about this all the goddamn morning and this was in my head.

If we wanted machines to think for us, we'd have built thinking machines.

We didn't.

QED.

Internal memo:

For self preservation, don't ever argue a technical topic on social networks. Not even mathematics or physics. Definitely not economics. Programming languages? Do you want a war of religion? Because that's how you get a war of religion. Biology? Medicine? GTFO. We don't want no fancy suicides here.

"Yes, I'm her. Name's Ángela now."

"But what was your name back then?"

Don't be that fucking asshole.

Yo sé que ustedes disfrutan de "medios" que titulan de esta guisa:

La nube de polvo patagónica avanza sobre la provincia y podría alcanzar al AMBA y La Plata

Pero si usan los ojos habrán observado que

a) ayer tuvimos un atardecer rojísimo sobre esta costa del Río de la Plata, y

b) hoy el cielo estuvo blanco con características de dispersión que claramente no son de nubes de agua.

En cualquier caso. Los aeropuertos de la región no informan de visibilidad reducida, así que la estratósfera estará empastada pero al nivel del suelo se puede operar normalmente.

No es el humo de abril de 2008, quiera Satanás que no se repita.

There's only one person who can quote Borges here, and you're not her.

LLMs are an incredible scientific breakthrough

You better believe that's an instant block.

Sorrow be damned, and all your plans. Fuck the faithful, fuck the committed, the dedicated, the true believers; fuck all the sure and certain people prepared to maim and kill whoever got in their way; fuck every cause that ended in murder and a child screaming.

Wish people would just STOP sharing that quote without context. It's said by a fucking asshole, and I'm being generous here. No details because I fucking hate content warnings.

(It's in Iain Banks' Against a Dark Background, an otherwise fine novel by the way.)

"Unfit for purpose."

That's all the reason a responsible person needs to reject the use of a given technology.

Nuclear explosives are useless for anything besides leveling cities on this planet.

You can develop your own analogy to LLMs. I won't.

"Technology isn't neutral", yeah, we've heard it a million times. But it can sometimes be retargeted. Easily? Fuck no. And rebased? Hardly ever. Not without developments in other areas: that usually takes decades.

Notice I'm talking about specific things. Never a whole, diverse research area.

Analyze each case. Learn about mechanisms. Quit rattling off slogans. Do better.

It's not gender ideology, it's gender consciousness.

So they want us unconscious.

The rest is left as an exercise for the reader.

Es fácil ser pacifista cuando no te pasa un imbécil en moto por al lado, te perfora los tímpanos con una explosión de su caño de escape calculada para máximo daño, y se da vuelta repetidamente para observar los efectos. (Insultos y mirada de odio asesino, en mi caso: conozco personas que la pasarían mucho peor.)

Sí, seguro que le confiscaría el vehículo y lo destruiría frente a sus ojos. Pero también le daría una clase práctica e inolvidable sobre fisiología auditiva.
