I send my love to all those in the US who have sought to bring into being a kinder and more compassionate nation, which uses its strength wisely and in the service of peace. Things are looking dark. Please hang on. Do what you can to protect one another. Outside of the US we feel your pain.

Difficulties in pace converter.

Thank you...your kind, thoughtful and timely message makes me cry.



Hey, any of my former UNR students who are following me, answer your phone tonight! It could be someone trying to cure your ballot.

(And hello. I think of you often and hope you're all doing well. 💙)



"The United States elects a new president on Tuesday 5 November. The outcome, of course, interests also elsewhere in the world due to the resulting choice having sizeable ramifications for the rest of the world too. The United States does not exist in a vacuum.

"Many pollsters have asked in various European nations what does their populace think of the race and who would they, should they have the right to do so, vote."

I don't want open washed Grand Theft Autocomplete LLMs anywhere near my data. OSI hasn't defined open source AI, just open-washed proprietary AI. You should have nothing to do with it.

my need is for this "AI" crap to get tossed into the sun and stop turning every single application and service I use not only tremendously worse but also a direct attack vector on my privacy

Kind of torn on this one.

The privacy conscious person in me is all "urgh". But as a dev I understand the importance of this kind of data - and how opt-in can render that data as misleading.



Have you heard of a mineral called Ulexite?
The block itself has quite an interesting structure and looks translucent when polished but if you lay it down on a surface you suddenly can see a clear picture from what is underneath!

This funny fellow was too shy, and my camera too slow. Every time he poked his head up, I would snap a pic that wouldn't take until after he had put his head back down! Echidnas! Amiright?!

Without meaning to, you captured his darling personality perfectly. "..too shy.."
