Heard on the Internet: "Using #openai Sora to produce quality video is like playing a game against a retard and only he knows the rules."

Using the PerplexiPy with the @perplexity_ai back-end and the Llama-3.1-70b model rendered these results. Good times.

"Agile is killing software innovation" - Moxie Marlinspike. In a nutshell, so much high-level abstraction and black boxing robs programmers of understanding of how systems work and interact - from #BlackHat2024 and @TheRegister - www.theregister.com/2024/08/09/m...

Borderlands from @Lionsgate is super fun in a what-a-craptastic-film way. Furiosa on Acid. Enjoyed it more than Furiosa, have never played the games - B-movie with a good budget, would love to see the MST3K treatement. So bad it's enjoyable.

#RSAC2024 pen testing. Yesterday I passed through the north entrance with this in my pocket by accident once, and twice thru the south entrance (pocket, laptop backpack) on purpose. It was X-rayed. @RSAsecurity - you know better than security theater. Pointless delays to enter.

This is why I have trust issues when it comes to all AI providers. @perplexity_ai gave this answer. The correct answer is 338 vs 315, so the model's response is correct. The math makes no sense, though. AI has a longer way to go before being actionable than people fear.

PerplexiPy high level package for @perplexity_ai now in PyPI. Simple integration for single message, batches, or streaming interactions - only strings exchange between front and back ends. BSD-3. API docs, instructions, key management at pypi.org/project/perp...

Lots of goodies arrived in the mail today - #canadian #panic is a good reason as any. I already owned one (with improved firmware), two friends sent me the others because cool friends are cool - cheers to @KF, thanks to our pals at @flipper_zero.
