MEEEEEEEEEEEE BABYYYYYYYYYYY!!!
NO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
this post makes me snort every single time
happy yuri night everybody
Netflix keeps recommending Law & Order: SVU to me and I wish there was a button where I could explain my absolute searing hatred of that show instead of just “not interested”
Genuinely curious, what's so bad about it? I only know it from clips I stumble upon on Instagram reels.
These guys have great videos if you have the time.
But essentially, treats constitutional rights as "loopholes to get bad guys off" or "technicalities", presumption of guilt, and glorifying police brutality.
May I add this video about the transphobia of law and order: SVU?
i love things that come in glass jars because once its over the glass jar is mine

My all time favorite animal. The red-bearded vulture.
The bearded vulture, or lammergeier, lives on a steady diet of bones (more specifically the marrow) and dyes its own feathers blood red.
Bearded vultures come in various shades, from pure white to orange-red. Soils stained with iron oxide give the birds their fiery appearance. Lammergeiers apply the dirt with their claws and then preen for about an hour to ensure a bright orange/red glow. They are also attracted to other red things, like leaves and red wood. Captive birds also partake in this behavior, which suggests the activity is instinctual, not learned.
The soil doesn’t have any practical purposes; it certainly doesn’t make for good camouflage (though the birds have no natural predators anyway). Scientists have noticed that the birds’ age and size are directly correlated to the intensity of color. It is theorized that the hue is a status symbol. More soiled feathers indicates that the lammergeier had the time and resources to find an adequate place to bathe; the brightest-colored vultures should have the most territory and knowledge of their surroundings. Interestingly, these baths are done in secret, so most of the information gathered has been through spying on captive birds.
Bearded Vultures are most commonly monogamous, and breed once a year. Sometimes, especially in certain areas of Spain and France, bachelor lammergeiers will join a pre-existing couple to create a polyandrous trio. Females accept secondary mates because it increases the chances of producing offspring and doubles her protection. The birds usually don’t lay more than three eggs, so they can use all the help they can get.
These giant birds can grow up to 4 feet tall. They have a wingspan between 7 and 9 feet and usually weigh around 10 to 15 pounds.
In other words, this bird is awesome and I love it forever.
That is one impressive bird!

my reaction to the post ngl
resistance is futile
Fun fact: back in 2010 I wrote a game called Space Resistance, where the basic gameplay was that you had to match colors to numbers to avoid your ship getting destroyed by proton torpedoes.
Naturally, it was resistor color themed. Edutainment, baby! You had to memorize the resistor colors to win.
Or you could use the heretical way to find the right resistor : test them all at random with an Ohmmeter until you find a good one.

Looking to get into philosophy does anyone have any thoughts for beginners?
Yep some stuff is bad or good.
But it depends
Strongly disagree. There's no real bad or good.
For my AI assignment I need to generate a bibliography and then reflect on the process and result and I just got two AIs to generate a bunch of sources and man they are so quick but now I need to do the annoying part of googling every one of them to make sure they're real and the page numbers etc are actually real.
This is arguably worse than just looking up sources on google scholar or jstor because you already know they exist and you don't have to proofread them
I have questions.
1. What is the purpose of an AI writing a bibliography without the sources in hand? It just feels like a way for students to try to cheat? If you didn't use a source why would you cite it?
2. What are you supposed to be learning from this assignment? How unreliable AI is?
Okay so my professor for this class is "AI curious" and wanted us to figure out together if there are ways to ethically use it in higher ed. She doesn't really know anything about it herself and we had a guest lecture about AI beforehand. We're a graduate student seminar so we're all already pretty advanced in our knowledge of Other Things and also have plenty of other normal assignments.
We're supposed to generate a list of sources in our field connected to a theoretical concept we might use in our conference paper. For example, fidelity and adaptation studies. We then have to check the accuracy and usefulness of the sources and write a reflection paper on the process of using AI, the ethics of it etc.
The assignment is very much designed to be a controlled environment in which we can experiment with AI.
Interesting.
As a PhD student in AI (analytic not generative, like what you're describing), I've definitely seen ethical use of generative AI in research, but only for small blocks of code.
Since usual large language models have a lot of python in their training datasets, and one of the things they're trained for is answering programmation questions, they're quite decent at that. Though, of course ; You have to pose the problem the right way for the AI, which already requires some degree of know how ; You still have to check the code (and test it if needs be) ; you can't use it to generate the whole codebase for your experiment, since it can only generate a limited amount of tokens and has a limited understanding of distant relationships between pieces of code.
Anyway, are you using a "classical" large language model (like a GPT, a LLAMA, ...) or something specifically built to recommend papers?
Yeah like programming is a whole other area where I'm pretty sure AI comes in pretty handy! I'm in the humanities so it's like why would I even want my computer to do this work for me?? And badly at that.
I used Copilot because we have a FERPA compliant agreement with Microsoft but we were also allowed to use ChatGPT and stuff like that.
Yeah, the task you're testing it on isn't necessary one it was trained for, so I guess it won't necessarily go great.
Also, I don't know about Copilot or recent versions of chatGPT, but I know that some version of chatGPT only relied on the trained network to give you an answer, and used no outside information. This means that they would not be able to suggest relevant papers more recent than the date at which the network was trained.
Also, since it's a general purpose LLM, there's no "strong" safeguard measure to ensure it's not hallucinating, like checking that a paper exists or that the information outputted by the network is factually correct.
(Might be relatively useful to have a second summary of an article, beside the abstract, to know if it's pertinent to your studies before reading it, though.)
But hey, even if you find that it does not work, a negative result is still a result!

There's a way to remove it~
Go into the power shell
then paste in:
reg add HKCU\Software\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\WindowsCopilot /v "TurnOffWindowsCopilot" /t REG_DWORD /f /d 1
like this
Then restart. Also here is how to turn off the awful search suggestions:
Stop the OS from pulling up web results when you just want files and apps.
incase anyone didnt know there's some great free software to handle disabling windows bloatware without needing to mess with the command line
With the freeware O&O ShutUp10++, unwanted Windows 10 and 11 features can be disabled and the transfer of sensitive personal data onto Micro
O&O AppBuster gives you the control back over your Windows again! Now you decide which apps you want on your computer.
these are a mandatory part of every windows install for me. been using them for years and it's such a lifesaver
Because this has mostly been talked about with Windows 11, heads-up that this installed itself on every Windows 10 computer in our house with this week's update.
im only a man when im a grown ass man and im only a woman when god forbid women do anything
any time other than that? im a fucking Echidna

Can’t believe Giovanni had a talking cat walk up to him, on its hind legs no less, and just go “you’re hired.”
Hahaha it was something like that
Well, I guess Giovanni did hire him on the spot as an intern but got so annoyed with him that he assigned him (promoted him????) to be a field agent. Truly failing upwards
I have a closing shift today.
