I have to admit, the performance of a Chromium-based browser compared to Firefox is abysmal. I don't have that many tabs but it lags a lot and the browser constantly puts tabs in hibernation to save memory--something I've never needed with Firefox. So all of you Chrome users live like this? No wonder RAM is in high demand.

So Michael Shermer is a charter member of the new American Nazi party? I'm unsurprised and disappointed at the same time.

Well, if like me, you're looking for a European alternative to Waveform Lighting, euroLighting isn't it. All the numbers are the same on the box (2700K, 800 lumens, >= 95 CRI) but the color is noticeably more piss-yellow 😦

On the 14th day of Chaos, despite my better judgement, I wrote a few words about how I feel about LLMs being trained on FLOSS work, touching on my understanding of the legal situation, a bit of ethics, and what we can do to improve the situation.

I hope this sates my brain, and I can stop thinking about the topic now.

Again, this is not limited to code. That same contempt, that same lack of respect, that same looting of the commons is happening with media and writing as well.

I have licensing, FLOSS, and LLM training thoughts this morning again. I have a blost about it, but... I have a new perspective, more thoughts.

Not happy ones, but... I feel this is something I need to write down, it is fundamental to why my stance on AI is what it is.

This time, I will not tootstorm it. Straight to blog. And hopefully this will be the last time I wake with these kind of thoughts in mind.

> This is respecting the licenses of the training materials. This is the absolute minimum, mind you. This is not everything they have to do, this is the first step only. There’s many more. And this is something all models would be required to do. This is not an “Ethical-only” requirement. This is the bare minimum.

https://chronicles.mad-scientist.club/tales/on-ethical-ai/

This applies to non-code training data as well. Step 1 and all models are already failing

I'm thinking about how "security" (virus and hacking protection) is often raised as a good reason to subscribe to automatic updates. Indeed, I allow my iPhone to update itself mostly because I think it's more secure.

But I have never felt comfortable with the way that software just changes whenever it wants.

The interfaces change, the functionality changes. We are promised it's for safety and "improvements" ...

But IDK what if you shipped software that was... complete?
