It turns out that making things more expensive makes them more expensive.

Don't want to be caught defending the current labour government, but if take a look at what Ed Millband is up to at least they're quietly doing good stuff with net zero

Pictured is a delivery box containing a brand new Brother mono laser printer. It is the model everyone tells everyone else to buy whenever the issue of printers arises.

You can tell an LLM not to invent data as much as you want but it will very much continue to invent data.

Seeing people nonchalantly post stuff like makes me feel like I'm going crazy honestly.
A post from an academic on blue sky that says: "I'm learning about "prompt engineering" when asking LLMs to extract data. I now add this to all instructions: Style Be concise, analytic, and specific (cite page/figure if provided). If essential info is missing, keep going but flag Unclear and exact data needed. Never invent data. #academicsky"

NIMBYism runs deep round here though. Trams bad. Houses bad. Data centres bad

Interestingly, Scot gov has a list of sites recommended as locations for data centres

If you're gonna build them anywhere, build them where there's a fucking surplus of renewable energy, and it's using a close loop system.
Zero operational carbon. Zero operational water.

There's a data centre proposed for western Edinburgh but I wonder if it will get blocked because everyone learned from Instagram that data centres are bad now
