Well, it looks like my minivacation, later in the week, will be full of flooding and rain if hurricane dregs show up.

Greatness doesn’t come from doing what you like to do. It comes from acting with courage and integrity to do what needs to be done. #life #success

Reworked the code for my display. Yes, it’s hot. The colors indicate temp and stock price. #programming

I wish there was an option to disable the ugly dark-mode icons on IOS #ios #failure #ui #ux

Here’s an interesting link you can share… https://fs-prod-cdn.nintendo-europe.com/media/images/08_content_images/games_6/nintendo_switch_7/nswitch_thelegendofzeldalinksawakening/NSwitch_ZeldaLinksAwakening_Char_Link_front.png

Small milestones still mean you’ve gone a mile. #life #success

Do you wear a hat? Do you wear your hat inside? Why? Are you ashamed, lazy, or believe hats should be worn inside? What are you protecting? Is it a fashion statement? What is your statement? NOTE: I’m not making a value judgement. Just wondering. #hat #life

It’s time to get back to editing… Work.

Do something random this evening. Don’t plan it. Don’t think about it. Just wing it. Just don’t hurt/kill anyone/thing. Life is habit, structure, and responsibility. Be a child again. #life

If something is too obvious to question, you will be proved wrong.

Yes, I’m in one of those moods.

LLM should be called ELM since most are using English… #llm #failure

Those working on language processing in LLM are doing little in AI. Lanugage does not guarantee intelligence and intelligence does not require language. #ai #failure #llm

LLM = Large Language Model. It says nothing about “I”, Intelligence. LLM is just a table of associated phrases. We are already in a race/war to see who can come up with an LLLM, Largest LLM. But a glorified, albeit complex, lookup table is not intelligence. #llm #failure #ai

The role of a writer is to make up stories, make you think, ask questions that make you uncomfortable and squirm, and least of all, entertain. One or more are required. Otherwise, you’re just talking to yourself. #writing #books #reading

I know some of you ignore/don’t respond to my posts. That’s fine. I ignore and don’t respond to lots of yours. But I do appreciate you and those that do. Thank you.

Well, that’s good news. The hurricane is going to move up the coast right on time for my mini-vacation later in the week.

I’m seeing lots of weird posts on the Elephant today. Most dealing with AI and probably generated by so-called AI. The more AI-centric posts I see, the more I suspect AI is involved in generating them. #ai #failure #media

Happy National Underwear Day. Wear your nation’s underwear proudly.

“I have seen stars in number, but not in numbers to tell me that we are not alone.” If you feel you are alone, you tend to feel superior, desperate, or both. #writing #technology #civilization #pollution #failure

What boring thing were you forced to do today? Me? Pay bills. #life
