The weird new ant paper that shows queens laying eggs of a completely different species has me thinking that more species are probably cloning sperm in their spermathecae than we’d thought.
After all, most queens only mate once and cloning would be a great mechanism for keeping the party going.

Hahaha, I love this photo of a snake nerd researcher from the Phoenix Herpetological Society using a fake leg to step on rattlesnakes & see how likely they are to bite. He "stepped" on 175 of them, and was bitten by only SIX. Snakes desperately want to just get away! 🐍🧪

Con la nuclear hay que empezar a hacer el chiste de la policía y la cocaína menguante, pero al revés.
La central costará 5 mil millones.
Esos 10 mil millones no serán un coste para el Estado, porque las empresas pagarán los 20 mil millones con un modesto plus de 30 mil millones en la factura.

Ya hablé hace más de un mes de Sizewell C, y de que iba a ser otro estúpido desastre económico.
Pues bien, ya han comenzado a reconocer un coste de 44.000 millones de euros (casi 14.000 €/kW), aún sin comenzar la construcción, aún sin sobrecostes.
Pinta incluso peor q HPC.

We ran a randomized controlled trial to see how much AI coding tools speed up experienced open-source developers.
The results surprised us: Developers thought they were 20% faster with AI tools, but they were actually 19% slower when they had access to AI than when they didn't.

it is kind of interesting that the language-based instruction of LLMs may be revealing certain truths hidden in the way we’ve communicated for decades, like how “politically incorrect” is interpreted to mean “openly racist”
Annnd @xai just deleted Musk's new prompt which told the Grok LLM to "not shy away from making claims which are politically incorrect, so long as they are well substantiated."
That prompt seemingly caused the LLM to become Nazi 4Chan, and has now been deleted, but other recent changes remain.

Excellent article that explains the bigger picture here, both about Sweeney in particular and the entire mass culture industry:
