I am not a fan of MicroSoft, I think most people would be aware of that. I have recently been required to use VSCode for some of my work and I admit it is not entirely unpleasant. I still prefer vim and no vim mode is not good enough 😉 though it does make it vastly more usable.
After an arm wrestling match, that I finally won, I have VS Code configured for my work environment. I use Fedora 43 Workstation for my daily driver and getting VS Code to co-operate with my default configuration for the terminal was a bit of a nuisance. There must be more than a million settings in this beast! 😉

Fast-talkin' guys with strange red eyes That put things in your head And start your mind a-wond'rin' I love you so, please don't go Please stay here with me in Maraschino
Maraschino, Maraschino Where life's such a groove You'll blow your mind in the mornin' We used to walk through the park Make a-love along the way in Maraschino...
Ya, there's entirely too many #NoEffort entries for this category. For this one, there's the old jazz standard #HerbieHancock Watermelon Man. And then there's Tom T. Hall's poignant classic...
Can't pass up what the Minions sang. The Banana Song Or Rafi's Banana Phone. Or Belafonte's Banana Boat Song Gotta tack on The Chiquita Banana Song, which dates way way back. And a tip of the fruity hat to Carmen Miranda.
Today's update from Monarch Watch's Director is in the form of a blog post which somewhat recaps the reports she posted yesterday. #JourneyNorth is reporting that one of the sanctuaries in Mexico where monarchs received radio BluMorpho tags has completely broken camp, so the migration momentum continues to build. Link to the blog is in the comments section
Has anyone explored using one of these stupidly-large language models to compare/contrast between languages, and see if there's any hope of Chomsky's Universal Grammar living at a deep level?
Sounds like a great project for someone with the right hardware. I unfortunately do not have the hardware to train or utilize any of the extremely large models. My ceiling is around 16b for usage and training. Not very practical in this type of research. It would be really interesting to see the results of this research though.
I first thought it was the diarrhea I would give them! it is called..(see pics) Also, is only point of failure on my system so far I tested it (pen) Saw it does not survive reboot, so I have to address that now.
It does not survive reboot as a security matter but it runs on background once out that environment until reboot. : )
So unless I'm mistaken, Mamdani, who ran on "taxing the rich" to pay for social welfare increases, just proposed that instead, every single New Yorker who owns their home should face a nearly 10% increase in property taxes...
#MonarchButterfly #Migration #radio #BluTags There's been an update on one Monarch that broke camp early from Mexico's El Rosario overwintering site, and it has been logged about 30 miles north of the sanctuaries. The tag number is ROS012, and has not been reported since yesterday. A couple others have also broken camp, going northbound: CHI005 and CHI007, both from the Sierra Chincua sanctuary, heading northeast. You do need to use their specific app for you to be on the lookout for these broadcasting bugs, and it's free via App Store or where ever you get your apps.
Here's the report posted by U of KS Monarch Watch's new Director, Dr. Kristen Baum, who took over Monarch Watch operations when the legendary Chip Taylor retired...
Ya, GMail is peculiar about not displaying a whole message to be screenshot properly, so here's the rest of the message although it cuts off the map images:
But WAIT! There's MORE! Dr. Kristen Baum, Director of Monarch Watch at the U of KS also reports the logging of Monarch butterflies tagged in the U.S. & Canada on their way to Mexico, and one of those was tagged at Stillwater OK, I presume via OSU by the Xerces Society, sporting a simple tag number XSTI.
She has also noted tag number PP0017 (tagged at Point Pelee, Ontario) and JMU011, tagged at Harrisonburg, VA. Me, I'd be interested in the ones tagged in NJ at Cape May ever made it southward at all, because the last word on those is that they kept coming back. Maybe weather kicked their butts into migration mode--who knows.
People care more about A.I. then Gaza.. Oh, Cory used A.I. !!!! turned their micro verse in tatters. It was a simple grammar checker guy's did not matter, you can't keep explain. The least people could do is stop making such a drama of it, or at least direct their hate to the malicious 1% of the 1% or the Big Bill Club. Same with Crypto if you ask me, you know only facts not use cases. This opinion reflects me and whom may be feeling concerned ( but I'd rather skip the latter with me ) I hope you had all a fantastic day and wish you even more day's as it, is the only way to make it good is to allow yourself to make it a great day!
I have yet to meet any AI hater that knew any of the facts, or had any context for their beliefs at all. All I have ran into is people obsessed with hating a technology they simply do not have any idea about. Even those that should know, do not and quote random theories from yesterday that have not panned out at all in practical application.

Well well well, I do hope that #JackBlack was watching the #Olympics skate gala. That amazing skater of Kazakhstan did an impressive tribute to his movie, Kung Fu Panda...and was awarded stuffed pandas by none other than Master Monkey himself, #JackieChan .
Of course the other skating medalists were amazing, with 4 skaters being particularly stellar and if you've been watching the competitions, I'm sure you know exactly who those are. HINT: two of them were a skating pair from Japan.
