Hey just a quick reminder if you're sitting on a huge pile of documents and wanna start indexing them and quantifying their features, DuckDB is fucking fast, very good, and very free.
You can do fast full text search with it. It's had that feature since 2021.

GOOD NEWS! Researchers have discovered a powerful antibody, known as 04_A06, that is able to neutralize 98.5% of MORE THAN 300 different HIV strains AND permanently reduce HIV viral load to undetectable levels, making it one of the broadest-acting antibodies against HIV identified to date.

Half the US and britgov all going "Man the CCP has a kickass deal with that firewall and mass internet surveillance thing."
The British government admits it is now monitoring VPNs use by UK residents. Regulator Ofcom has contracted with an AI-powered surveillance service to detect the number of citizens using VPNs to evade the Online Safety Act.
The UK tech minister has said a VPN ban is on the table.

look classic proc gen game dev stuff is cool but a lot of it is written as best guesses by the author on what might look good rather than a creative statement. it's primitive slop automation
A big reason proc gen feels so different to AI in spite of superficial similarities is exactly this!!
Proc Gen systems reflect the interests and creative preferences of the tool makers, whereas AI is catch-all sludge that reflects no specific point of view. It’s not remotely the same!

In case anyone ever asks, I *have* written a material generator and a music generator for Eldritch 2, but that's not AI. That's me taking all the things I personally know about those things, and writing my own tools to make the process a little faster and easier for myself. It's still 100% me, baby.

Just learned about the “Beans is How” campaign, and I’m all about this vision. Unironically, this is a very smart idea, and one of the better-thought out Theories of Change I’ve seen. Who cares if Big Bean interests are involved, this is an essential change to make sdg2advocacyhub.org/beans-is-how/

There's a whole spiel telling us not being able to handle neo-pronouns is caveman shit and mfer will "quote" the same book to peddle Q-Anon instead
also in the culture almost literally everyone is trans by current standards. changing your gender is easy and it's weird if you've never done it.
