Llama 2 is out and it seems like it's ranked the top in the open-source #llm leaderboards.

Unlike LLaMA 1, you can also use it commercially (with a few restrictions), so I guess there will be a lot of stuff build on top of it soon.

Sometimes I think about the fact that I am probably the Only Black Friend for some of the white people in my social circle. Not sure how to feel about that.

That's why I'm so militant all the time though. Because I need to educate you motherfuckers.

Catching up with my old team from work for lunch today.

Another member is retiring ...

Looking forward to it.

And hopefully there will not be any scrum masters in attendance. 🙃

Katherine Faulders/ ABC says:

"The target letter to former Pres. Trump mentions 3 federal statutes -- conspiracy to commit offense or to defraud the United States; deprivation of rights under color of law; and tampering with a witness, victim or an informant, sources familiar w/ the matter tell me &"

Has anyone seen the actual letter?

Adding links:

Regarding section 371:

Conspiracy statutes give prosecutors a wide net.

From a long time defense lawyer Mark Reichel (my former mentor at the federal defender's office):

The problem is that they *can't* defend those interests. Mark Zuckerberg isn't merely monumentally, personally unsuited to serving as the unelected, unaacountable social media czar for billions of people in hundreds of countries, speaking thousands of languages. *No one should have that job*.

We don't need a *better* Mark Zuckerberg. We need *no* Mark Zuckerbergs. We don't need to perfect Zuck - we need to #AbolishZuck.
