I did them locally, a long time ago, before cloud was ubiquitous. Some of the project files might still be on my university’s servers, but I doubt I could find them again, at least for the sound editing robots. I know I’ve got some of the image-eating cellular automata around –I was looking at them recently– but the library they depended on is broken.

Some speech recognition work, some selective gain adjustments –not just amplifying certain bands of frequencies, but trying to write a robot that can identify a specific instrument and amplify or mute just that. Also fun with throwing cellular automata at sound files. And with throwing cellular automata at image files to turn them into sound files.

Sounds as though your script did all important work, not your AI.

That’s a big bound forward from last I was looking at it! Avoiding that nasty glyph was notably not in its portfolio of tricks. It would say it was avoiding the fifth, but still slip many through.

Assuming that this discussion is about LLMs, anyway.

I’ve done lots of cool things with AI. Image manipulation, sound manipulation, some simple videogames.

I’ve never found anything cool to do with an LLM.

With politics, I think the term you want is “wonk”.

I’m not afraid to die.

But that kind of humidity… would make me want to.

Never cared about the cumulative, only about the score on individual comments. Still got that, still get the little dopamine hit from looking at it.

Ah, but I’m on the anarchist instance.

no thanks

I’m not. College dropout waitress married to an artschool dropout chef.

I think you’re mixing up “nerd” and “geek” here.

Sounds like it’s lawful surveillance.

Lawful, but still hostile to their customers.

I follow the new communities and community promo feeds.

Also crossposts.

“catsup” is the better spelling; “ketchup” looks about as proper as “nite lite”

All I got right now is this box of one dozen starving crazed weasels.

I prefer actual recommendations from real people. That’s how I’ve found most of my favorite books and videogames.

Music is a little different. I do occasionally hop on Pandora to let their algo recommend new things. I also listen to indie radio and pull from there. But I still rely on stealing songs I hear friends play, if not specific recommendations.

Because it was taught wrong to most adults when they were children. Pedagogy has changed, though, and gen alpha are actually becoming numerate instead of being told to just memorize things like my generation was. Maybe the zoomers got lucky with that, too.

But seriously, as a mathematician and a teacher, you’re not bad at math because of something inherent to you. You’re bad at math because you weren’t taught numeracy.

1. Make breakfast for kids

2. Go to work

3. Not sure what it says, but I just got a text from my wife so there’s at least one more thing I gotta do

4. Ensure kids all have clean uniforms for school tomorrow

They were all almost exactly eighteen months.
