I'm fortunate enough not to need to care about Musk, but people keep flooding me with him, and I found this to be quite descriptive as in "if there's one thing you need to know..."

From @garius:

Both Musk and Thiel have spoken on the record about this incident a number of times, although they obviously put a positive spin on it.

You can hear Elon telling his version here.

@det not sure if this is helpful beyond my when-you-hold-a-hammer viewpoint, but dropping it here and I apologise if it is not.

Over the years I've had an important role in an open brainstorming toolkit for prevention and/or . Basically it's a guided website where problems are described and users are involved in about solutions for them.

It is based on a rather sophisticated model of crime prevention, called the conjunction of criminal opportunity that features 11 contributing factors (the conventional crime prevention triangle features 3) from crime promoters, through target enclosure, offender's assessment of risks to criminal predisposition.

The toolkit is freely available at cco.works/ and is usable at no costs whatsoever.

If you (or anyone) thinks it might be useful to promote a problem-solving discussion, we can easily include a scenario exemplifying the problem to serve as a starter.

Let me know if of any interest at all. We've been working on this for more than a decade now.

Prof. Eliot Jacobson, two hours ago:

"Apologies in advance for not explaining this in any way, but here are the daily standard deviations for #Antarctic sea ice extent for every day, 1989-2023, based on the 1991-2020 mean. Each blue line represents the SD's for a full year. Lighter is more recent.

2023 is in red."

If you think things are already bad now, think again.

Strong neighborhoods boost the health, happiness, and longevity of their residents. But over the last several decades, our connections with our neighbors have been fraying. t.co/mVxkM1oUGZ

@DebErupts @jeffjarvis and the megarich megaignorant d*ckheads plan to seek refuge of catastrophic events there. Probably underwater and with synthetic food, who knows

This is superb and the moral bankruptcy of the so-called effective altruists (#TESCRAEAL) all the more dystopian and disturbing....

@ummjackson @ZiggyTheHamster @thomasfuchs aren't you forgetting that react is actually forbidden to use to googlers... Ahm, I meant "strongly discouraged"

I find these timelines very useful. Only that for me the interesting starts with Parti and Midjourney v4 (there's also a thing called Structured Diffusion Guidance), because these models also work on scene composition. Everything before that is pure randomness

@arxiv_hc Interesting, but considers style only. And there is also scene composition arxiv.org/abs/2302.08961
