Yeah - I feel the Canadian ire all the time as someone who travels there frequently. You can't blame them - it's like a family member just turning on you all of sudden for no rhyme or reason (or benefit to anyone).

I finally got to see my doctor on Monday and showed her the rash on my scrotum. She just ignored me and kept pushing her cart through Costco.

@Mik said in It's not just Minnesoota: That's ridiculous. How do you know they didn't identify these schemes to begin with or serve as the catalyst that led to it? I think we can know that. Elon would have bragged about it either then or now. Plus the bulk of it was from a pandemic era program that ended in 2022. I’m pretty sure doge was more focused on cutting current and future spending. What backwards-looking investigation they did do was focused on justifying the termination or reduction of ongoing programs.

The question is the answer.

I'm going to pretend that I care whilst secretly sneering at your pointless existence.

Peter Attia interview from back in 2021 with the journalist who really dove into the Andrew Wakefield hoax and the origins of the ‘vaccines cause autism’ memetic complex. He follows the histories of the players involved (Wakefield originally sought out to show measles caused IBD), what they did, what they fabricated, and how they were able to have their initial success. https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-peter-attia-drive/id1400828889?i=1000517725939

It’s hard to say. I haven’t been doing much cycling in the past 6 weeks but it’s gone up in that time. I bought an indoor trainer for my basement but haven’t used it much due to the awkward placement. I just got rid of that large extraneous bed in my basement which will allow me to put it in a good place and use it more. What’s new for me in the last six weeks or so is daily treadmill time.

I thought it was CGI.

I picked up a prescription yesterday from an Asian young lady. But since she's a pharmacy tech, or maybe even a pharmacist, I'm sure she was at least mid 20s. Anyway, she was stunning. From what I could tell through the drive through window at least. Which is enough to infer everything I couldn't see.

@Axtremus said in My AI Training: @Mik said in My AI Training: ... but you still have to amass and feed it the data. Where it can help you is you can train it to do normal engineering reports where you just put in the parameters and it does all the verbalization for you. But it can't amass data it hasn't been given. That's another concern ... how do you know the data you feed it will not leak outside your data security enclave? You don't. Exactly why I stay away from cloud storage as much as possible.

Me too. Though there is a minor caveat that he’s repeating what another person outlined. Still he must find it to be at least an intriguing possibility to forward it.
