Academics! I have experienced a huge drop in student questions both online (I keep a discussion forum) and offline for my class. Attendance is good (maybe even great I’d say). Am I an anomaly? My suspicion is that student are asking LLM questions. Thoughts ?

Our cat Truffle (old name on chip is Pernille most likely as we recently received her from her former owner) has gone missing, and we've looked all over but no sign of her.

There was a cat that looked similar to her, but it wasn't her.

authors you have the chance to do the funniest thing right now
AI advocates have warned that if every author in the class action filed a claim, it would "financially ruin" the entire industry.
Authors celebrate “historic” settlement coming soon in Anthropic class action
Advocates fear such settlements will “financially ruin” the AI industry.

I like how our upper classes are so deranged that it's sometimes hard to tell what's pervert shit and what's "racial hygiene"
since larry summers is in the news for being in the eugenicist pedophile sex criminal club i'd like to point out that for decades basically every ivy league school kept archives of nude photographs of incoming freshman at the behest of a eugenicist to determine the moral worth of students

entirely possible some senators experienced some flight issues getting home and decided selling out the entire American healthcare system for the poor was a reasonable trade for fixing it

You may think this is an easy one, but what if you're a billionaire already planning to have retreated to an underground bunker in ten years, and need a technology which can persuade everyone else that everything is fine, really?
A fun question. In 5 years time, what looks better? The US’s enormous bet & capex on AI? Or China’s equally enormous bet and capex on renewables?
China has made cheap, clean energy available in huge quantities. The world should take the win econ.st/4oqFszB
