How high can you go? Pretty high if you are a Rice student stacking pizza boxes at tonight's homecoming game. The exercise has become a third-quarter tradition at Rice football games.

Today I learned anyone can transfer account ownership of my utilities to themselves simply by calling and requesting it. You have no protection (with PEC at least). Note once transferred they can terminate.

Update: after a few hours of weekend-hacking I've got @openAI's chatGPT using all of English-language @Wikipedia by providing the text of all articles as source material using a huuge @pinecone vector database! I'm happy to report that it successfully answers @nntaleb's question about the battle of Amioun without any bullshitting, as my previous local test did... (this one x.com/stephansturges…… ) and it also works in a much more graceful manner as a plugin because the "agent" which you are conversing with can make the decision to source / not source additional content based on context. The structure that @openAI has built for plugins is really clever and opens up a world of possibilities... I really think the future of LLMs is in chaining interactions with external sources, and vector DB ones like this that are controlled, maintained and updated by a trusted source play a huge role in making that a valuable system. Stay put for a link to the demo plugin ASAP 😄 @bentossell And don't forget to support the Wikimedia foundation for all the great content donate.wikimedia.org

So this is fixed now, @nntaleb: I've added ALL of wikipedia to chatGPT using a @pinecone vector database ! 😄 The AI may not be "smart", but now it has about 58,049,701 pages of knowledge to draw answers from. ... public link coming very soon.

We always appreciate our investors, but especially after this most turbulent weekend: so many of you were ready to do whatever was needed to assure that our business was not disrupted. Talk is cheap; commitments to wire funds are less so. From all of us at Oxide, thank you!

“..force cuts in Social Security, Medicare, Medicaid, and much more, using a fake crisis to create a real one. That’s the Republican plan. The danger is that Democrats may be trapped, by their own scary rhetoric, into capitulating.” ~James Galbraith thenation.com/article/econom…

I've been hiding away for the last three months like a code gnome working on LiteFS. And today I get to announce we have WAL support! And also about a hundred PRs for stability and hardening. 🚀 Thank you to everyone who has tried it and given feedback! fly.io/blog/wal-mode-…

1/2 Seriously. You don’t have to be a fanatic and stay at home. Wear a mask in indoor public spaces, get your boosters, you’re less likely to get sick and MUCH less likely to get seriously sick. Feels like a no-brainer, yet the stores are full of the maskless… don’t get it.

Very occasionally we get a front-row seat to the part of science where an educated observer looks at the data and says “That’s weird, and I’m dubious the conventional explanation works.” Everything starts from there.

I’m shocked by the streamers in the ejecta. In ordinary granular splash experiments we see nothing like this. A few musings about this in a thread… /1

@benbjohnson I used Delphi a lot in the 90s and loved it. Object pascal was excellent, at least much better than Visual Basic imho. But I figure since is it’s still going these days it must be doing something right.
